Posted May 28, 20223 yr Pride is upon us! This year has been a rough year for the LGBTQIA+, particularly for the transgender people. We had several states in the US banning them from partaking in sports competitions, and in the UK the conversion therapy ban was reversed on transgender people. Then, you also have the "Don't Say Gay" bill in Florida, which is pretty grim and we all saw the effects with a high school graduate using "curly hair" to replace "gay" in his speech. These examples still remind us that there is still a long way to go for LGBTQIA+ rights and that Pride Month is still a very important month not only just to celebrate our real self but also to fight for our rights, as it was for the Stonewall Protests. With the grim stuff swept aside, let's celebrate Pride Month with some great songs! Ever since I successfully hosted PFSC IX: Celebrating Pride a year ago, I now revive Pride spin-off in BJSC with blessing from our amazing founder Linds! Obviously, this is your chance to enter LGBTQIA+ artists that have impacted you with the rest of the community and get everyone into the Pride spirit! o You must submit a song that's either by an LGBTQ+ artist and/or is lyrically about an LBGTQ+ topic o The song cannot be by an artist with their own forum on Buzzjack o Your song can't have been sent to a previous spin-off, main contest or PFSC IX o Your song must not have reached the top 100 in the UK chart. o We won't allow multiple songs by the same artist o Your song also can't have notable Buzzjack prominence etc. o Do not tell anyone what entry you have sent! Click the pic above to confirm! Submission deadline: Wednesday, 15 June 2022, 23:59 BST (GMT+1) Hopefully there is enough time to submit entries while BJSC 145 is going on! I have included a section where you put your username in the form so that I can PM you easily when there is a veto or problem with votes, or any reminders. There will also be a recap video provided during voting! As always I couldn't recommend this playlist highly enough for their weekly source of newly released gems! They have been supplying quite a couple of songs for my personal chart so if you are struggling to find entries, this playlist may be helpful for you: Altyr Muunilinst Aquafina Bøtanikkä Cor Lupus Cumulonimibia Danæviia East Rukahavian Flynnonda FSR Rontvia Hendinia Jadakissnia Jupiterdonia Kathaldazia Kyriatine Lookylion Lotunia Pagasa Persephonia Pestolia Sovarasma Taahino Terra Avium Thelonia Trifoski (24) Brought to you by © Longorama of Sovarasma 2022 x Edited June 16, 20223 yr by uhsting
May 28, 20223 yr Hype :cheer: some very weird coincidences led me to this song so I feel like I *have* to send it, looking forward to some discoveries!
May 28, 20223 yr Confirmed and then immediately reconfirmed :lol: suddenly remembered something that would be perfect and I'd love more people to hear. Â My options were endless really after recently creating a 'bi panic' playlist in time for pride month :kink:
May 28, 20223 yr god I've been planning to send this song to a Pride spin-off so if it gets taken then idk what to do
May 28, 20223 yr Author god I've been planning to send this song to a Pride spin-off so if it gets taken then idk what to do yes someone sent your song earlier so you now have to re-confirm with a lip-sync of your life! :teresa: :teresa: Â jk jk jk cody you're safe pending veto. Edited May 28, 20223 yr by uhsting
May 28, 20223 yr pending veto. There isn't really a veto for spinoffs (short of someone trying to send Lil Nas X - MONTERO (Call Me By Your Name) or something). I have a possible artist in mind for this but it's dependent on if they have any songs of their own actually worth sending, need to dig into their discography a bit. (I only know them from a couple of collabs with more well-known artists x) Failing that will need to do some more brainstorming/searching ~
May 28, 20223 yr Queeriatine is ready for this! Using the opportunity to (try to) send a song I'm sure would get vetoed in a regular edition of BJSC. B-)
May 28, 20223 yr Author Great to have 11 nations confirming on the first day of confirmations! Keep 'em coming! :party2:
May 31, 20223 yr Yayyy! Been looking forward to this :wub: Â I have an entry I'm gonna send as a sort of placeholder just now, it's been a bjsc potential, it was my backup for pfsc but it is v fitting for this so I may just stick with it bc it is a bop. There is always the chance I find something I like more as I've been sitting on this song for months but we'll see I suppose! :lol:
June 4, 20223 yr Author sent something I've been saving for nuggets make sure to vote in bjsc semi-final as well! :P
June 4, 20223 yr Just panicked for a second thinking I forgot about this and might be close to missing the deadline only to discover it is still open for another 11 days lel xx I don't think you needed to make the deadline that long :kink:
June 5, 20223 yr Sounds like mine! rock/alt bloc let's goooo! for real though I'm hoping this isn't just 20 $l*t pop anthems, while those are nice, I hope we get to showcase the lgbt genre versatility!
June 13, 20223 yr Have sent an underground BANGER, hopefully I filled in the form ok? Will be away for the next week or so with work so wasn't sure whether I could participate but hopefully the voting window will be long enough. x
