After 2 weeks of voting the results are in. We have a winner! You can check out the voting process and the results via this link: https://scorewiz.eu/scoreboard/view/357324/isc-12. And once you are done (or impatient) you can click the q-button to see the full voting grid.
Also, one of the voters notified me that the song from Nicaragua is actually from Colombia. Nicaragua also has a band named Ecos, but they did not make this song. My apologies for the mistake. In the scoreboard you will still see Nicaragua, but in my administration I will update the country to Colombia. :)

ISC #10
Hello and welcome to edition 10 of the International Song Contest. A jubilee edition! I started this tradition in 2011 by asking 11 friends to select a song from their country and have people vote for their favorites.The contest was quickly expanded 22 songs per edition when I started enjoying it to find great music by myself. And now I can't believe that this is already the 10th edition! A big thanks goes out to all of my friends and family who have made this possible by selecting songs and/or voting for their favorites. It's you guys who kept me going all this time!
I honestly believe that this 10th edition of ISC has the highest average quality of music so far. Because I worked hard for it. Really, you won't believe how many songs I have judged before coming to the list with the 22 songs below. The preliminary list of participants contained music from countries like Tuvalu, Paraguay, Trinidad and Tobago and Bahrain, but in the end they were deemed not good enough to share with you. Now there are only two countries making their debut in this edition: Kazakhstan and Myanmar. This makes a total of 67 countries that has participated in ISC.
Let's hope you will enjoy listening to these songs. As always there is a voting section below where I kindly ask you to vote for your favorites in Eurovision-style. Any vote is extremely appreciated. :)

My personal top 30 of ISC 1-9
We're slowly getting ready for the 10th edition of the International Song Contest. A jubilee edition, which has a very strong line-up. To get ready for that, I decided to make a top 30 of my personal favorites from the past 9 editions of ISC. Also, I made a recap video of the top 13 favorite songs. Why a top 13? Because 30 is too much for people to still enjoy, the number 14 has no official video and a top 10 would be too few songs. :) But for the people who want to watch all songs, I did make a playlist on YouTube. For the link, see below.
So here is the recap video:
Here is the link to the playlist:
