Freeze

Right, I have to vote in both semis this time😱 Oh gees, why did I have to win last time?😩 Just kidding, looking forward to making new discoveries, wohoo🥳

Haha! Only vote in the semi you're in😊

Because I'm an expert, I successfully embedded the music videos to the auto qualifiers😎 Feel free to listen to Greenfroze and Terra Avium too at this stage😁

Links added for semi 2 as well! Let me know if any of them are wrong or don't work or if there is anything else I should edit😊

Links for the semi 1 countries added! I will be adding national flags eventually too🤩 Could anyone help provide some playlists at some point?😁

I hope most of you are happy with your semi! As you can see from my explanation in the opening post, I have chosen a different, fun and on theme way to split the semis. I had the exact number that I needed too, haha😄 There had been too many countries in the past with green flags that don't participate anymore, though🙃

I'm adding the links now, in case anyone was wondering :)

An explanation has now been provided in the opening post😜🤪

If you don’t have anything green, you are welcome to make something green or even take a picture of some grass or a tree outside and send me that. I will find a use for those pictures later in the contest😊Feel free to send them to me anytime from now and until you send me your semi final votes. WHO ARE ALLIES OF GREEN?

Ok, what I'm gonna do is post the thread now, even if I'm not finished with the links yet. I'll just edit them in after posting it, so you don't have to wait anymore :)

I can reveal already, though, for fun while you wait, that semi 1 is called ALLIES OF GREEN!🤩

Even if I get the GREEN light from the mods right now, it might still take a while. Sorry. Writing up everyone and adding the links is... interesting work :)

Me too! I'm currently working on the opening post while I'm waiting for the GREEN light😁

But hey, we did get a record number of participants this year, so in a way, it worked🥳

Glad I could help😅

Stop sending cheap songs now, thank you very much we need somebody with an inspired tune
