International Song Contest 8

Hello and welcome to edition 8 of the International Song Contest. Today I am sharing - together with some friends who helped me selected the songs - 22 new songs from all over the world with you. The contest is again very diverse and actually I'm a bit proud of the quality of the music in this contest. For sure it's going to be exciting to see who will be the winner this year, after two consecutive wins for South Africa.

I hope you enjoy listening to them and 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. :)

Voting rules:
- Voting goes via the traditional Eurovision-system, see below.
- You can vote for your own country and/or your own entry, as long as you promise to vote honestly. You can also ask one of your friends to vote, as long as this friend votes based on his/her own taste and not on your advice. :)
- You can vote until 1 November 6:00pm CET.
- Voting tip: personally I find it easy to rate the songs I like 1-5* while listening to the recap video and rank them afterwards based on this rating.

After the voting has ended I will publish the results on my blog and make a fancy animation of the voting process, to give the viewer the feeling that he or she is watching the results of the real Eurovision song contest. If you include your e-mailaddress, I will send you an e-mail when the final result is published.
