This is the official thread of the 55th NowNewMusic Contest.
If you would like to see certain songs represent another country this edition, then the "Song Suggestion Thread" can help with that. It's also useful if you're struggling to find a song for your own country.
SONG SUGGESTION THREAD
DEADLINE:
/ Friday, 07 May 2021, 11:59 PM MDT \
/ Saturdayday, 08 May 2021, 07:59 AM CEST \
Because it's Eurovision month, deadlines will be tighter to make time for us to enjoy the ESC week.
PLEASE READ!
IMPORTANT CONFIRMATION RULES
It is mandatory to POST your confirmation in this thread. You don't have to take a country yet as you are allowed to switch countries/entries during the confirmation period.
When posting an entry, please post a YouTube URL of the song. If there is a valid song that is not available on YouTube, it is your responsibility to make it available on YouTube. Additionally, a 25-second time slot is required. For replacement videos, I suggest 26 seconds for smoother transitions.
Starting a National Selection does not guarantee you a place in this edition.
Make sure to send entries ONLY published within March-April 2021 (whether commercially or as official videos). Make sure they were uploaded after Midnight MST, 01 March 2021 and before Midnight MST, 01 May 2021. No re-uploads! No May 2021 songs! Ask the NNMC Council (MaRtIn , Tufkai , Gregory (inactive) , 𝖱𝖠𝖣𝖤𝖰𝖰 ) if you have any questions by either posting in this thread or sending a PM to any/all of us.
IMPORTANT CONFIRMATION RULES
DAY 1:
The previous edition's Top 3 ( Turkmenistan, Poland, Denmark), the top 25 active users, NNMC #54 finalists, last edition's Standby Users who submitted an entry, AND non-players who provided replacement votes last edition can confirm. You must also not be in the "Banned Users" section of the Strike List.
DAY 2:
EVERYONE ELSE not in the "Banned Users" list is allowed to confirm. Only the first 60 users will have a secure place to participate in the current edition. Anyone who confirms after the 60th user will go into a Standby List. The earlier you confirm and submit an entry for Standby, the higher you are prioritized.

Thank you Tufkai for the update! The only real shake-up here is Shaun leaving, so he's taken out of this list. Other than that, not much change here. Ealex barely hangs on again (I've decided to put him in the list since Domas, who just passed him, is AQ).
