I think that'll be a good way to breakdown the final voting round as Competing Song, NF Reject, Wider Discography Song, Wildcard (interval acts etc) will be the perfect way to select our four song quota! Will probably try and get down to 10 for each section, so you'll probably only need a couple of nominations to make it.
Reserving the right to change, my current 5 nominations are: Love Love Peace Peace Don't Stop Constellation Prize Hear Them Calling Kilimanjaro I will keep thinking as I want to diversify language and years if possible. |

Gonna go for, officially, I'll leave Love Love Peace Peace as I think it's going to make it to our forum's final now (I think any with two nods should if I'm reading this right):
İzel Çeliköz - İki Dakika (representative of Turkey/ethnic songs) Nightwish - Sleepwalker (representative of Eurovision-esque rock, I can't resist putting this up for consideration, plus it could grab indie votes) Timoteij - Kom (representative of Melodifestivalen epics/Swedish language, toss up between this and Genom Eld Och Vatten but I think this could get a lot more traction as glorious as Sarek is) NOX - Forogj, vilag! (takes Eastern European language and Celtic-riverdance whirlwind sounds in one package, only just misses the cutoff point but it was 11 years ago) Sibel - That Is Where I'll Go (I wanted a good ballad to finish off and this is the best (and also most stereotypically Eurovision, or I'd have gone for something like Cvet z Juga or La Voix, and I'm not sure operatic is exactly signature Eurovision) I can think of) |

I assumed by multiple that it meant that the final would be made up of songs with 2 or more nominations (as obviously including 1s would be unmanageable), but it'd depend on the volume of nominations as to what that multiple ends up being. If you could clarify Lindsey that'd be fab, although I wouldn't imagine we'd get many with 3 nominations or more to render doing 3 or more to the final as a possibility.
Going by nominations in other threads, I don't think we have to be as harsh cheap-wise as I thought we were going to be so I shall be nominating the ultimate (sort of) ethnopop song from south-eastern Europe and that is of course Ivi Adamou's La La Love instead of Kilimanjaro. NOX is a good shout, very underrated! |

Yea I think it will be two or more as it's kinda evident already that there's going to be a shit load of single nominations so it's probably going to be rare that anything will get even three

Okay so my actual 100% legit nominations at this point are
Sasa Landero - Mandoline (represents the ethno-pop sound very well and that's what people are expecting from us I think) Total Touch - Somebody Else's Lover (Trijntje Oosterhuis's easier to pronounce girlband from the 90s and this is their biggest/best hit and it's fabulous, plus has tinges of RnB which'll net it some fans from that base) Timoteij - Kom (with Iz here, and really we need some kind of Scandi/MF representation) Barbe-Q-Barbies - Let Me Out (strategic outreach to the rock/poprock fans) Plus one more I'm leaving myself time to edit in. |

I've put everything we have in the first post, I've gone for "Artist Wider Discography" for My Heart Is Refusing Me as while it was an NF reject it was revamped and made a post-Euphoria single of course (and it has less competition in the category I've put it in )

İzel Çeliköz, Reyhan Karaca & Can Uğurluer - Íki Dakika
Kate Ryan - Je t'adore Svetlana Loboda - Be My Valentine! Feminnem - Lako je sve Helena Paparizou - Survivor 'Íki Dakika' is a must for me, been stuck in my head ever since Lex posted it in his thread. 'Je t'adore' is classic europop, Svetlana because *.*, 'Lako je sve' to represent the fantastic genre of Balkan ballads. And then I could've gone forever choosing a Melfest reject, but I think Helena could appeal to a lot on here. |
