jukebox_festSorry for the delay, everyone. I wish the times were not so interesting.
However. Nominations are open! Why nominate? Explanation at FAQ.
2020 tag set for nominations is here
Nominations will close at the end of 2 April EST.
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, discuss ideas at the brainstorming post on LJ or 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:
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.
Please include this information even if you've nominated the same song in previous years. YouTube videos may be taken down; lyrics may be edited; etc.
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 version of the form:
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.

Lyrics link: From the video description:
Dúlamán is a traditional working song from the north of Ireland, made famous in the 1970s by the legendary Irish group Clannad. The word ‘dúlamán’ means ‘seaweed’, and the song references two types, one for dyeing and one that is edible. These two types of seaweed also represent two different characters in the song. This arrangement by Desmond Earley features the Irish single-headed frame drum, the bodhrán, and includes a lively refrain that repeats after each verse.
LYRICS:
Curfá
Dúlamán na binne buidhe
dúlamán a tsléibhe
dúlamán na farraige
‘s dúlamán a’ deididh
A ‘níon mhín ó
sin anall na fir shuirí
A mháthairín mhín ó
cuir na roithleáin go dtí mé
Curfá
Tá ceann buí ór
Ar an dúlamán gaelach
Tá dhá chluais mhaol
Ar an dúlamán gaelach
Curfá
Rachaimid don Iúir
Leis an dúlamán gaelach
Ceannóimid bróga daora
Ar an dúlamán maorach
Curfá
Bróga breaca dubha
Ar an dúlamán gaelach
Tá bairéad agus triús
Ar an dúlamán maorach
Curfá
Goidé a thug na tíre thú?
Arsa an dúlamán gaelach
Ag suirí le do ‘níon
Arsa an dúlamán gaelach
Curfá
Cha bhfaigheann tú mo ‘níon
Arsa an dúlamán gaelach
Bhuel fuadóidh mé liom í
Arsa an dúlamán maorach
TRANSLATION:
Chorus
Seaweed of the yellow cliff
Seaweed of the hill
Seaweed of the ocean
And seaweed of the tooth
Oh gentle daughter
Here come the courting
Oh gentle mother
Put the wheels in motion for me
Chorus
There is a golden yellow head
On the Irish seaweed
There are two bare ears
On the Irish seaweed
Chorus
We will go to Newry
With the Irish seaweed
We will buy expensive shoes
said the edible seaweed
Chorus
There are dappled black shoes
On the Irish seaweed
There is a beret and trousers
On the edible seaweed
Chorus
What brought you to these parts?
Said the Irish seaweed
Courting with your daughter
Said the the Irish seaweed
Chorus
You will not get my daughter
Said the Irish seaweed
Well I’ll abduct her
Said the the edible seaweed
