This is the nomination thread for which song(s) we will submit to Lemmyvision 2! Please comment your nominations in this thread for them to be considered. This post will be pinned to the instance briefly, but you can continue nominating songs until March 25th (2025). You will be able to find this post in [email protected]

What is lemmyvision

Lemmyvision is inspired from Eureddision (itself a reenactment of the Eurovision song contest) which was held on r/europe some years ago, and based on the participation of national communities / instances and the delicate musical taste of their members (you!).

Every country/community is welcome to participate! The contest follows the rule of “national languages only” but regional languages are welcome too, if your community would like to feature a song in a regional language of your country, that’s awesome. 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.

What is lemmy.ca doing

Specific to Canada, here is what the organizer has said:

You’re invited to participate by sending a song in any official or regional language / dialect from Canada !

Given the multilingual aspect of your country, I’m open to multiple submissions (one for each language you’d like to represent, so Inuktitut, French Canadian, any First Nations languages are welcome) from lemmy.ca, just mention which language is linked to which submission 🤗

As such, please do the following:

  • Songs must have been released within the last year (after January 1st, 2024).
  • Songs must not be international hits (see the ‘Full rules and details’ link below for more context)
  • Nominate each song as a separate comment under this post. If the song contains vocals, it must be one of the ‘Canadian languages’ as outlined above, and you must specify which language you are nominating it under

Please nominate the songs by March 25th (2025).

I set a reminder to post a voting thread on March 25th. If I am late on that (like last year), please let one of the admins know and we will get on that. That should give us a week before the submission deadline to pick from our list of nomations.
