It’s election time in California. 5 different artists want to be the ones to represent their state. To represent their state they’ve madr a song to represent them.

The following 5 candidates has this to say about their songs:

• I love it when it Rains - "Bring on another breakdown, baby I love it when it rains down on me". A banger song about nobody can beat you down when you're already down

• Everyone's a Secret - "We can't hide the truth, it's in our face, written in abuse we can't erase". A tragic song about how people feel the need to hide their true emotions and life in the modern world, and how nothing will change if we don't share our feelings

• Harder to lie. - "I keep saying that it gets better with time, keep telling everybody I'm doing fine, you're not always sitting in the back of my mind, it's really getting harder and harder to lie". A song about how you'll never forget someone you loved deeply

• Story of my life - "Don't wake me up, cause I don't wanna see the sun, I just wanna feel numb, I don't wanna be in love". A tragic story about how being in love with someone who doesn't love you back can eat you up from the inside

• Outta my head - “God went and shut the gates right in my face and now I am falling”. A beautiful song about letting go of people who only want to lwt you down.

Hola a tots! Welcome to the Latinvision Song Contest 2024. This year, we’ll travel to Andorra la Vella, home of the Poliesportiu d'Andorra, Andorra’s largest (and only) indoor venue. Let’s relax and appreciate the new songs that will become part of the “Echoes of the Pyrenees” after last year’s Triquell won with his song Jugular In Paris. This year, the visual design has been inspired by trencadís, a mosaic made from cemented-together tile shards and broken chinaware found in the Catalan Countries.

Country Categories

The rules will be slightly adapted this year, and some interesting changes will be announced. Four categories of claimable nations will be introduced to promote diversity and originality.

• Countries: 65 member states of the United Nations will be available to pick, without the possibility of borrowing.
• Borrowing countries: 14 different UN member states and territories that may borrow from neighboring regions or their sovereign state. Extra restrictions may be placed on certain nations.
• Territories: 26 dependent territories or subdivisions where well-known Romance languages are spoken. They may not borrow from their main countries, with no exceptions.
• Minority languages / Subdivisions: 39 first-level subdivisions may only be represented in their respective minority languages. For example, an artist from Catalonia may represent Catalonia itself only if they sing in either Catalan or Aranese; in case you find an artist from Catalonia that sings in Spanish, it may only represent Spain, not Catalonia.

All songs, regardless of category, will compete against each other. Divided in four regions, you may check the LIST OF COUNTRIES, or look at them right here. Any minority language not listed here (like Judaeo-Spanish, Palenquero, Kristang, etc.) may be considered if you choose to; however, I will determine the subdivision that is the closest to them.

Rules

Different release dates and view limits will be in place for each of these four categories, so be careful when you choose your nation. The rules will mention first the limits for Countries, and then, each of the other three categories will be specified.

• Songs must have been released on or after September 1, 2022.
  • For borrowing countries, it will be on or after September 1, 2023, ONLY if you borrow. If you submit a local artist, the deadline date stays the same as the country category.
  • For territories, it will be on or after March 1, 2022.
  • For minority languages/subdivisions, it will be on or after September 1, 2021.
• Artists must be under 30 million monthly listeners on Spotify. The YouTube video or the song itself on Spotify does not have any restrictions.
  • For borrowing countries, artists must be under 10 million monthly listeners on Spotify
  • For territories, artists must be under 40 million monthly listeners on Spotify.
  • For minority languages/subdivisions, there is no monthly listener limit whatsoever.

The following rules apply to all songs:

• Songs must not have participated in the Eurovision Song Contest or any of its spin-offs (Junior Eurovision Song Contest, American Song Contest, etc.), any National Selection, nor any other song contest (ABU TV Song Festival, Viña del Mar International Song Festival, etc.)
• Songs that have participated in any previous contest held on r/FantasyVisionContests are not allowed.
• Covers are not allowed.
• Songs must be between 1:30 and 6:00 minutes in length. If any doubts arise, the length on Spotify will be considered as the length of reference.
• National finals and song reveals are allowed, but they have to be approved by me first before you post them.
• Lyrics need to be predominantly (60%) in the language specified in the LIST OF COUNTRIES, however, multilingual songs are allowed as long as the other languages don’t overshadow the main language, or these are in a combination of the allowed languages.

The following rules apply to all artists:

• Artists must not have participated in the Eurovision Song Contest or any of its spin-offs (Junior Eurovision Song Contest, American Song Contest, etc.).
• Artists from any National Selection held on or before the 2023 Eurovision Season are allowed.
• Worldwide famous artists are not allowed. (This rule will be enforced by me, but it may be subjective. You can only change your artist once if you don’t follow this rule, otherwise, you will be disqualified).
• Artists must not be nominated for any of the following awards in 2023 or 2024:
  • Latin Grammy Awards: General Field (Other fields, such as Urban, Regional-Mexican, Music Video, etc. are allowed).
  • Grammy Awards: Best Latin Pop Album, Best Música Urbana Album (Other awards in the Latin, Global, African, Reggae & New Age, Ambient, or Chant Field are allowed)
• You are allowed to represent the same country as last year, but artists who participated in the last edition are not allowed.
  • For minority languages/subdivisions, artists who participated in the last edition are allowed only if they represent the same subdivision.
• Eligibility: Artists must have at least 25% of their heritage of the selected country, or have significant ties to that country (born there, lived for a notable amount of time, acquired a second nationality, etc.). For example, Belarussian songs in French representing French Polynesia, or similar cases, are not allowed. Heritage proof may be required in case of doubts.
• In case you choose a band, at least 33% of the band members need to fulfill the eligibility rule.
• u/tarastarasov957, last year's winner, has an AQ for the final. Andorra will be reserved for them if they claim it in the first 48 hours. If not, Andorra becomes free for everyone to choose without the AQ.

The semifinals will be held depending on the number of entries.

• ≤ 23 entries + AQ: No semifinals. Only Grand Final
• 24 – 26 entries + AQ: Semifinals and Grand Final (16 songs+ AQ)
• ≥ 27 entries + AQ: Semifinals and Grand Final (20 songs + AQ)

Exceptions to these rules MAY ONLY be considered in select cases, but be sure to follow them to prevent misunderstandings.

To participate, you need to comment your nation and send me your song through DM or Discord (to emi6219) before October 4, 2024, 23:59 PDT (Pacific Daylight Time). Good luck!
