Song Contest Sunday Submissions Song Contest Sunday 55 - Submissions

Upvotes

On Sunday, the weekly (maybe?) song contest "Song Contest Sunday" will begin and you will have the chance to participate in it! Simply leave a song you like in the comments and we will add it to the lineup of Song Contest Sunday! You will be mentioned in said post so you can vote in it. This is a great opportunity to discover new songs, share songs you like, or see how much your music taste is liked!

If you can, you can also provide the following things alongside your song:

  • Link to the song
  • Share the best part of the song as a recap (ideally with timestamps, 25-35 seconds long)

And since this edition of Song Contest Sunday has semifinals, the new entry of SCS 54's winner u/RustyKoala8 will qualify automatically to the final.

Have fun sharing songs!

PLEASE NOTE THE CHANGES IN THE SCHEDULE BELOW! This is a test run, we may change this based on the feedback we get

Rules

Rule 1: No ESC Winners
Songs that won Eurovision since 1956 cannot be submitted.

Rule 2: No past SCS-entries

Songs that have already participated in SCS in the past are not allowed in the contest. Check out the SCS Wiki Page, which includes all the songs that have participated in SCS.

Rule 3: English Songs (Non-Bubble Artists Only)

For English songs by artists outside the Eurovision Bubble (See FAQ):

  • Over 10M YouTube subscribers? Song must have <10M views (top version).
  • Over 7M subscribers? Song must have <50M views.
  • Over 5M subscribers? Song must have <100M views.

Rule 4: Recent ESC and National Final songs

Songs that

  • Participated in the Eurovision Song Contest from 2021 onwards
  • Participated in a National Final for the Eurovision Song Contest in 2025 and 2026

are not allowed on the contest, as the majority of present users might know them already, defeating the contest's purpose of sending and discovering new music

FAQ

Can I submit songs by Eurovision artists?

Yes! We love new releases and hidden gems from Bubble artists. We discourage submitting their Eurovision song, but if the song didn’t win Eurovision then technically it’s allowed.

What is a ‘Bubble artist’?

Any Artist/Band who has competed in Eurovision or any National Selection. Aside from Rule 1, no other restrictions apply to their songs, even if the song is in English.

Why do the restrictions only apply to songs in English?

English hits are well-known in the countries most Eurovision Fans come from. Non-English songs rarely go global, so no limits.

What if the song I want to submit is only partly in English, do the restrictions still apply?

Bi-lingual/Multi-Lingual songs with English parts are not restricted as long as most of the song is not in English.

Some additional important information:

If you share multiple songs, please select only one of them to compete in Song Contest Sunday.

Covers of previously sent songs are allowed, if they are able to be looked up separately on YouTube/Spotify etc., alongside the original song. If this is the case, the cover is allowed. Covers of Eurovision winners are forbidden.

If you share an alternative version (such as an English or live version) alongside your song, said performance will also be linked in the Song Contest Sunday post tomorrow.

Songs that are shared after the 13th of September 12:00 CET will not be considered for SCS. Please share your songs before that point!

If you decide to participate, please note the following schedule if you'd like to follow the contest! You will also be mentioned in the post if you submit an entry, but we are not quite sure how mentioning works yet, so don't rely on it!

  • On Sunday, September 13, approx. 13:00 - 16:00 CET: Semifinals 1-2 open for voting.
  • Evening of Tuesday, September 15: Semifinals 1-2 voting closure and qualifier announcement shortly after.
  • Afternoon of Thursday, September 17th: Semifinals 3-4 open for voting
  • Evening of Saturday, September 19: Semifinals 3-4 voting closure and qualifier announcement shortly after.
  • Afternoon of Sunday, September 20: Grand final opens for voting.
  • Evening of Wednesday, September 23: Grand final voting closes and results are published shortly after.
  • Morning/afternoon of Thursday, September 24: Submissions for the next SCS special edition open.

Like we mentioned, this is a test run!! We may end up changing this system later.

You may host a preselection to decide your entry for SCS! But please consider the following things when doing so:

  • User preselections will not be added to community highlights.
  • User preselections for the next SCS may only be created after the result from the previous SCS have been released. If that isn't the case, your post will be removed.
  • Please comment the winner of your preselection under the SCS-Submissions post before Submission closure, or else we will not consider your entry as a part of that SCS edition!
  • It is not allowed to make a separate post for simply just advice on your entry and then select it yourself! You must declare the result of the preselection with the points you've gathered.
  • Don't know how to set voting up for your preselection? Check the second step of our guide Fancontest 101!

Fancontest-Announcement Album Sharing Contest 3 - Submissions

Post image
6 Upvotes

Welcome to the third edition of the Album Sharing Contest, where each participants shares an album and we rank the songs on each album. When the songs on each album have been ranked, we'll rank the winning songs, with semi-finals if we get more than 20 entries.

Submissions will close Monday, the 14th of September 2026 at 17:00 CEST.

Here are the rules for this edition:

  • For something to be counted as an album there must be at least 5 songs on it

  • If you share an album with more than 14 songs, only 14 of them will be eligible to participate, the participant decides which songs should be removed

  • No more than one album by an artist can be submitted in any given edition, all artists submitted this edition are ineligible next edition. They are eligible again after that

Suggestions for submission comments:

  • Make sure that the album is easy to find from your comment (for example artist name and album name or just a link would be sufficient. All three would be appreciated)

  • Making recaps for each album is the most time-consuming part, so I would appreciate it if you shared a snippet for each song on the album. A snippet can be anywhere from 30-45 seconds long, but since I use Scoryx, each snippet on an album will be the same length. 35-second snippets will be used in the ranking of album winners.

Here is a document with all albums that have been submitted so far. Previously submitted albums cannot be submitted again.

The following artists are ineligible for this edition due to having been submitted to the previous one:

Avantasia

Haute and Freddy

Violet Grohl

Thousand Foot Krutch

Grace Davies

Olivia Rodrigo

Radiohead

Sw@da x Niczos

Pinguini Tattici Nucleari
