Hallo! Bainvis a Svizra!! Hello! Welcome to Switzerland!
Welcome to the land of [MENTION=32120]Tansike[/MENTION] , where we last visited four years ago. This time we are in Switzerland thanks to [MENTION=37899]CandyPerfumeBoy[/MENTION] who scored quite high with this song:
You know you have an obscure language when even Google Translate couldn't care less about it. But Romansh is one of four official languages of Switzerland, so let's test it out this month.
I chose Lucerne, because it's a Swiss city I have actually visited, and it's beautiful. It was during the month of November when I visited and I had some pretty incredible fondue. The Lion monument is about to hit its 200th anniversary. And there's a nice lake which old, picturesque bridges. Also, I bought a cute cuckoo clock there while in the town
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.

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.
