Nominations 2019

[morbane]

Nominations are open! Why nominate? Explanation at FAQ.

2019 tag set for nominations is here

Nominations will close at the end of 22 March EDT.

Please glance over the guide below before you nominate, and then come back to this post or its LiveJournal equivalent to comment. And if you're still thinking about what you want, try the brainstorming posts on LJ and on DW.

How to nominate
Songs or music videos shorter than 20 minutes can be nominated on AO3. Read more information on what can be nominated here. If you don't have an AO3 account to nominate with, please email jukebox.mod@gmail.com for an invite.

You have seven nominations each. Once I've approved a nomination, you can't keep editing that song or music video. However, you can submit some of your choices, then come back, edit your nominations, and choose more, during the nominations period - you don't have to choose them all at once.


Please nominate in the style:
Song Name - Artist Name (Format).

That is -
Golden Years - David Bowie (Song)
Beautiful Stranger - Madonna (Music Video)
- etc. If nominating a cover, use the name of the cover artist.

When you have made your nomination choices, please also comment on this post with the following information for each song:

<strong>Song</strong>: <strong>Link (YouTube, etc)</strong>: <strong>Lyrics link</strong>:

This information is optional, but it makes it easier for me to put together the tables of all canons, and it also might make it easier for someone else to get interested in the music you care about. You're welcome to give more than one link - for example, a YouTube link is useful for creating playlists, but you might choose to include Bandcamp as well as it leads more directly to supporting the artist. You do not have to give extra links.

You can also choose to include information about the genre of each song (even more optional, but it can help people decide which songs to try out). Use this form:

<strong>Song</strong>: <strong>Link (YouTube, etc)</strong>: <strong>Lyrics link</strong>: <strong>Genre</strong>:


N.B. I don't have a consistent system for including warning/content notes in the tables of canons - you can provide them if you want, and I'll include the information somewhere, but please be aware that not all videos will have them.

Thanks for the links! I'm not sure Arthur Curry works - I've stipulated 'The piece of music must be able to stand on its own without reference to a longer work.' If you want to swap that out for something, before sign-ups open, please let me know.

[minoanmiss]

Oh, huh, that's a good point. I was assuming cultural osmosis. I don't have a substitute ready to hand, though, so we can just jettison that one.

[morbane]

Okay. Thank you!

[minoanmiss]

Hey, thank YOU for running this. And about twenty other exchanges. You are a mighty pillar of fandom!

[morbane]

Why thank you!

Thank you!

[coneyislandbaby]

No problem!

There was one I waffled on the song or video (and went for the video) but I was wondering if nominating each separately would be possible? Or nominating both as one thing? Maybe for next year?

Also I wasn't sure on every genre but hopefully went close enough (mostly not being sure if the Celine Dion and Sheena Easton ones are pop, rock or something else).

[morbane]

You can nominate each separately.

You can request the music video and say "if you want to treat this as just the song instead, that's fine", and vice versa, "I requested the song but feel free to use the music video as an influence too", just please keep in mind which one was nominated/requested/offered/matched on & assume that is the default.

[coneyislandbaby]

Thank you for the reply!

I wasn't sure, so went for the one I wanted more for this one.

Definitely - I don't nominate or request things I don't want as is.

[kiraly]

Throwing in one last one before nominations close! Also, I'm super sorry, but at first I forgot to add the medium, and when I hit "back" to fix it, something happened and now it lists me as having 8 nominated, both the version with the (Song) tag and the version without? And it won't let me delete the bad one. Um, so, I'm sorry if that messes things up, but here's the links in case it's still possible to use the song.

[morbane]

That's okay! It probably won't let you make any other changes either now that it's glitched that way, so if you did change your mind on anything else, let me know.

Sorry this is a little late - really long week - but hopefully it comes in time to save you a little bit of work.
