Good day and welcome to Antarctica!

This was the eighth time in Germany, but instead we are heading down to Antarctica, the only continent that COVID-19 hasn't reached. Here we don't need to worry about social distancing or flattening the curve - two phrases I never want to hear again ever in my life.
We haven't left Germany completely - Dallman Laboratory is a German-Argentine project that focuses on studying the biology of the area. There's not much to do here, but hopefully you can chance upon a seal or two. That should give you plenty of time to listen and vote on songs.
No, the cheese won't be as fresh as in Dresden, but we'll get to know each other really well in the close quarters here. So dress warm, and enjoy the blinding white that is literally everywhere.



RULES
01. This is a monthly contest, modeled after Eurovision. You need to have at least 10 posts to your credit to take part.
02. You can pick any country in the world.
03. The artist you choose has either to be a citizen of the country they'll represent or to have been born there. At least HALF of the people from your act must be from the country you choose.
04. Your song must be 10 years old at the most. For 2020, eligible entries must have been released after December 31st, 2009.
05. Eurovision entries are not allowed. Songs from concurrent Eurovision heats are not allowed either.
06. The song cannot have been a UK/US Top 40 hit, as it would give it an unfair advantage.
07. The song can be a remix.
08. The song cannot be a cover version.
09. If your song features a sample, please state it early enough, so the other contestants can decide whether it is acceptable or not by poll.
10. You cannot vote for your own country.
11. Discussion about one's favourites during the contest is NOT ALLOWED, as it has the potential to influence the voting.
12. PLEASE try and choose a song not everyone would know, the point is to discover new artists.
13. If a song becomes or is found to be ineligible at any time before the voting is over, it will be disqualified.
14. Make sure you understand all the rules before you take part. You will need to devote about 2 hours of your time to this game to listen to all the entries at least once. Do a little research on your entry before you present it, be sure that it doesn't violate any rules, and check here to see if it has taken part before.
