Welcome to the Lemmyvision Song Contest where communities and instances of Lemmy submit a song and vote on their favourites!

The aim is to promote different languages and cultures from around the world, to share more between our online communities across Lemmy, and discover songs from lesser known artists.

The first edition of Lemmyvision has concluded. More will come, in the meantime, feel free to share music from where you're from! ๐ŸŽถ

what did I just watch?

is the reaction one should have for at least one entry of whichever-vision. Well done UK !

We did our best to find the best representation of modern Britain.

And that "what the fuck did I just watch?!" reaction is the role the UK usually fills, aside from Moldova occasionally.

Very true. I think it's an angle we should lean more into in Eurovision rather than the bland pop we often nominate.

[โ€“] ThePyroPython 6 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Very true. I genuinely want Pete and Baz to represent the UK at the next Eurovision.

It's the only way we can possibly win.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I'm definitely up for that. However, they were nominated and The Northern Boys convincingly beat them so...

[โ€“] ThePyroPython 3 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Fair point.

But could you imagine the whole of Europe getting wild to Pete and Bas - Get Low

Also I would love to hear Graham Norton's live reaction to that.

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago

Definitely to all of that. It's a pity it just dropped as I'd have nominated it instead.

I hope this also goes some way to addressing the request from the top YouTube comment as the UK Eurovision committee have cruelly overlooked this potential entry:

This is great haha, thanks for participating!!

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

And thanks for running it, it's been fun.

I have dropped a link into that post - it may give the OP some small comfort to know it made it this far.

[โ€“] [email protected] 5 points 7 months ago

Oh FUCK yes! Northern Boys 4 life!

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Fucking love the Northern Boys! If youโ€™d entered Nobody Likes me or Party Time youโ€™d have my vote guaranteed.

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago

I checked them but they are from 2022 and, so, aren't eligible. This was my next best shot.
