Welcome to the 13th edition of The Best Song in The World...Ever! For this edition, we will be exploring all that the 20th Century has to offer, every contestant will be allocated a given year between 1960 and 1999 and they must find an entry from that year. With an additional category for pre-1960 music for one lucky soul x

Every year has been randomised and put in a pot, to take part, you simply need to post a number in this thread between 1 and 41 (inclusive), I will then PM you with your allocated year. As this is an anonymous contest, you must not say what year you have until you are revealed in the results thread.

You have free reign with whatever you send from this year (and there are so many genres and styles to pick from so do give it some time), but it must've been either recorded or released in your given year, it doesn't have to be a single, B-sides, album/EP tracks and even demos are totally fine.

Due to the limited nature of the some of the years, UK top 40 hits are allowed but no top 10 hits. You must ensure that your track is not too well known or has a significant following, especially on the forum, the moderators will veto any entries they feel are too well known and may have an unnecessary advantage. Please also try and avoid entries sent to a previous song contest on this site.

Once you have found an entry, please confirm using this Google form. You have a week to get your entries in until Thursday April 16th at 23:59 (though if people feel they need more time with this theme, I would be open to an extension by a day or so into the weekend)

If that's all clear, then let's spin the wheel...Please pick a number between 1 and 41 to be allocated a year (and if someone could please pick me one as well x)

  • Chances are you’ll be OK if you just check this one’s archive as people quite rarely send 20th century songs in other contests. If your year is before 1980 you probably don’t even need to check this o

  • Just to say, I'll allow one change of numbers if anyone is struggling (I will then reallocate that year so that number will have a new year behind it), of course, you may risk something even more diff

Reading is fundamental lol...I got excited and totally missed that part, even in bold and enlarged font lol

Have you got room for a newbie guys?

I’ve enjoyed reading your previous contests and fancy a go. If there’s no space, don’t worry, I can still contribute with comments and maybe voting?

Love the idea for the theme too!

Definitely Jaz13 - anyone is welcome to join in!

I'll brave #13 please Chez 😲

Brill thanks! I’ll go for #31 then please.

You mention avoiding entries used in a previous song contest, have you got a list of songs to avoid, there must be quite a few?!
