Nominations are open! The 2025 tag set for nominations is here.
Nominations will close on 27 April 2025 (11:59pm EDT).
Please glance over the guide below before you nominate, and then come back to this post to comment. Questions are welcome.
How to nominate
Songs or music videos shorter than 20 minutes can be nominated on AO3. The 2025 Jukebox AO3 collection, shortly to be added, has information on what is eligible, but this information has not changed from the 2024 collection. If you don't have an AO3 account to nominate with, please email jukebox.mod@gmail.com for an invite.
You have eight nominations each. Once your mods have 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 a lot easier for us to put together the tables of all canons, and it also makes it easier for someone else to try out your choices. It helps us ensure we open sign-ups on time. 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 comment with 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. We don't have a consistent system for including warning/content notes in the tables of canons - you can provide them if you want, and we'll include the information somewhere, but please be aware that not all videos will have them.

Date: 2025-04-20 06:29 pm (UTC)The video is there: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=muJFIUH5-sM
It is not a music video, but a TV performance on a variety show. It starts with the singer being introduced by a presenter and a puppet, then the singer performs in a costume, then she has a chat with the presenter in a rose garden background.
I would like to nominate this specific video to include the set in the prompt (so, prompt about the translated lyrics but also the little yellow puppet, the costume, the garden). Would it work to nominate this as if it was a music video?

Date: 2025-04-21 02:46 pm (UTC)In the intro, the presenter introduces the singer (name + a comment about her costume) and the puppet gets very excited to see her because she's its favourite.
The song is a love song with fairytale motifs that are very up to interpretation.
In the outro, the presenter says that the song sounds like a fairytale and asks her if "Ludovic" likes fairytales, then they talk about how Ludovic sings and dances (Ludovic is the singer's son but they don't actually say it outright in the outro, just mention him by name).
The reason I want to request this video is 100% aesthetic, I just think the fairytaley-lyrics with the prince costume, the presenter's haircut, the rose garden, the cartoon mascot all scream vintage shoujo anime and that is the bulk of my planned request (I was even considering only requesting art for this one, not sure yet). I totally understand if this blurs the RPF line too much to qualify though!
