UNITED STATES of SONG 2020 - State Song Selections
Thank you to everyone who submitted songs to USoS 2020! We're in the midst of going through each and every song, making sure it fits the rules and regulations. For 46 of the 51 entrants, the song will be chosen behind the scenes.
But what about the other 5? Yes... 5!! I lied about only three. Oops.
We will begin the USoS season with three state song selections, and two state song duels! Yes, we are trying something new. I want to "liven up" the period between the end of song submissions and the state song selections and give people something to do. Otherwise it just feels like people sent songs into a void
So the three states above will have traditional song selections. They are
CALIFORNIA, 
NEW YORK, and - for the first time - 
TEXAS. We receive so many songs for these states, that it's really only fair to have a song selections to decide the entrant. Each of these three selections will have 8 songs. A post will be made in the next week or two announcing that the selections are open, and they'll stay open for like two weeks.
BUT. Between then and now... STATE. SONG. DUELS. Yesssss.
The states of
FLORIDA and 
TENNESSEE how can we forget her will have a special kind of state selection held here in the forums. Each state will have 4 songs: 2 sets of 2 songs per state. The two winners will then duel for victory, similar to this year's Norwegian NS. I'll use polls in this thread to handle the duel voting.
So kinda like this: Florida A vs Florida B, Florida C vs Florida D, Tennessee A vs Tennessee B, Tennessee C vs Tennessee D. If A and C won in each state, then the final would be like: Florida A vs Florida C, and Tennessee A vs Tennessee C.
The song with the most votes in the final duel is the winner, and the loser is the backup entry. The person who submitted the winning song receives global recognition (on this forum) and maybe Disney World will donate some tickets for your skillz. But I'll only announce who sent the song after the voting is over, just to avoid any kind of bias I guess.
So stay tuned!! We will start the first duels on 7 February!

Thank you for everyone's interest, and may the best song win!
