Song contest #111 Sing Like Nobody's Watching

[Dancake]

Sing Like Nobody's Watching

[+] very cool gif

The theme for round 111 is "Sing Like Nobody's Watching," encompassing songs you sing passionately when you are alone.
For example in the shower, when the house is empty, or you're driving home from work, perhaps stuck in traffic. When this song comes on in the shuffle the singing comes naturally, you know all the words, sing all the different parts, emphasize the emotion and hit the crescendos.. If someone you knew saw your act it would be embarrassing but it's always a good time.

Any genre, any mood, as long as it strikes passion in you.

Submit your song via PM or discord, whichever's easier for you

- Songs may be randomly divided into 2 or 3 semifinals depending on turnout.
- Listen to every song and give points to your top 10 favorites: 12 to your favorite, 10 to your second, 8 to your third, 7 to your fourth, and so on down to 1 point for your tenth favorite.
- If your song is in a given round, you must vote that round or you'll be eliminated. if your song isn't in that round (or you aren't in the contest at all), your vote will be counted as a public vote, which counts for half points.
- The top [x] songs will move on to the final. that number depends on the number of contestants.
- Repeat the process for the finals and we get a winner.
- Winner gets to hold the next contest, or they can pass the job along to 2nd place if they don't want to. 2nd place can pass down to third, etc, until someone wants to host.

General song rules:
- No eurovision songs
- No reality show/competition covers
- No songs already submitted in a songtest
- There is no penalty for length in this contest. however, if a song goes over 7 minutes, listeners aren't obligated to listen to more than the first 7 minutes of the song. so choose a long song at your own risk!

Each semifinal and the final will last for three days. some rules about activity/extensions:
- If you know at the start of your semifinal that you wont be available to vote for those three days, let me know asap and I can move you to another semi, if we aren't on the final one already.
- I'll be posting every 24 hours in this topic as a reminder, as well as pinging everyone who hasn't voted on discord 24 hours before the round ends.
- Extensions will only be granted in extenuating circumstances. forgetting to vote until an hour before deadline is not an extenuating circumstance.

We can begin on this Friday, November 11th. so we can vote over the weekend

yknow.. we be having songcontest 111 on 11/11/22

And this should be the last time I bring it up, but I took aside a couple hours this month to create an updated master list for the songs, so starting up next game we can play without wondering if a song has been chosen before.
