It's back after an absence in 2019! I can't promise how long it'll take until the results come with school being busy :lol: but 2019's were in August!

 

~ You have FIVE nominations, use them wisely~ all (eligible) nominated songs will advance to the main voting round

 

~ Your choices have to fit under the Indie/Rock/Alternative umbrella (mostly any artist whose music would be posted in *this* forum) I shall be the lenient judge! (it'll probably go on a song-by-song basis)

 

~ Your choices can be: any track released or promoted as a single in 2020 / any album track from a 2020 release / any track that reached its chart peak in 2020

I'm... not too sure :lol:

 

I suppose so, but I think I'll add in a limit where each person can't send more than 2 tracks from the same lead artist

haha not sure myself

 

good call on the song limit, otherwise I'd submit 5 Phoebe Bridgers songs :D

Sufjan Stevens - Make Me An Offer I Cannot Refuse

 

^ The threads for all of these artists are in this part of the forum so hopefully all okay!

Billie always has been, so yeah!

The last time we did nominations for this she had when the party's over and you should see me in a crown, which is why I ask (surely bad guy would have been a strong contender to get her a second win in 2019 if we had done it then!)

 

Expect some fairly mainstream nominations from me then when I finally decide on five.

Hmm I see what you mean, I guess with someone like Billie it would have to be on a song-by-song basis - but I think NTTD would be fine.

 

For example with Rina, most of her music would be alright - but I'm not sure Lucid would really.

In regards to Taylor, I think we've decided against her inclusion here as she's too big of a 'pop' name for the spirit of this competition - and it opens the doors for Afterglow etc really. A tricky decision to make!

I agree they are ‘pop’ artists who make some indie pop songs...but that opens it up further lol.

 

So you can pick 5 ‘artists’ with loads of different song choices of an I reading it wrong?

I believe it is that you choose five different songs and you aren't allowed to name more than two by the same artist.

fair enough, Taylor is certainly a pop artist but Folklore is more indie than Ed Sheeran will ever be.

 

my 5 then:

Phoebe Bridgers - I Know the End

Phoebe Bridgers - Kyoto

Christine & The Queens - People I've been Sad

Soccer Mommy - Circle the Drain

Ex:Re - Romance
