Hey friends from the other side of the pond! I hope I’m not spamming your community, please redirect me if it’s inappropriate.

I’d like to invite you to participate in Lemmyvision, a Eurovision-like Song Contest for Lemmy communities around the world ! I’d love for people across Lemmy to participate, and I hope it will bring people together through our diverse taste of music, so join us if you’d like to discover new music and culture from around the world!

TLDR

  • From right now and until April 1st, discuss with your country’s community on Lemmy about a song that released in your country, to send and share to the Fediverse.
  • On April 1st, voting will begin, where you will rank your favourite songs. Any song not submitted by this date will not be featured.
  • On April 8th, results of everyone’s favourite songs will be published.

There’s a lot of info I posted on this post and the dedicated community on [email protected], stop by if you have any question, this will be the community for updates and results, make sure to subscribe if you’d like to stay in the loop.

I’m not sure if the Québécois would like to send their own song, I can make an exception to that, but otherwise it’s up to y’all to self organize, eh?

Thanks for your time, hope to see you there! ❤ 🇨🇦

      That’s alright, it’s nice to see. I’ll see about organizing discussions soon :)

    There doesn’t seem to be a year requirement on here.

    So, are we going with one of the best selling of all time (Alanis, Celine, Sarah McLaughlin, Shania), or one of the “band for people who are musicians” like Rush, someone fun/classic that people might half-remember, someone current-ish who got a lot of streams, or a joke suggestion like beiber?

    Are we just going to go “Man I feel like Woman” by Shania Twain?

    • Canadian
    • Fun
    • People know it around the world
    • It does well with the LGBTQ+ community, and Lemmy seems to have a high number of queer people.
