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! 🎶
Rules
- Just be nice to one another ❤
- Enjoy the music! 🎧

MODERATORS
There is other English language songs in the contest, so if I follow that logic, we should ban them too.
This is a contest for fun, and the first one to boot. If there is an overwhelming victory for the gaming song, maybe the organizer will consider putting more strict rules next time, but for now, let people have their fun.
If that were my only argument, then sure. And there are even more factors at play than I mentioned, like the fact that Lemmy's biggest community is Technology, meaning that there is the added advantage of that for a gaming-related topic.
If this is merely for fun, why associate with Eurovision at all? Why have any voting? Just have a sub for highlighting music.
Edit: And there are communities that do just that.
I wouldn't mind an annual community song contest. That could be fun! But this is not it (or imo it should not be)
Exactly, though I'd also contest the notion of gaming OSTs being "often overlooked". Best Score and Music and its previous iterations have been a category at The Game Awards since 2014.
So, did Cassette Beasts win by a landslide ?
The real question should be whether those votes added to another song could have changed its position. If so, its presence was detrimental to every other participant.
