Song 4 is a cover of “Breathe” by Jax Jones and Ina Wroldsen. It's not really a cover though since Jax Jones is still officially credited. It's just the Mandarin version of the same song, so it's valid. Source: Spotify
Also, should we really let a Hong Konger represent China when Hong Kong can be represented all on its own in NNMC? inactivo, if Sherman Chung wins the NS, I insist she be represented as Hong Kong instead.

Well, is part of (an special part, yes but still it's ), and if nobody confirmed imo we could consider it. Kosovar singers can represent Albania bcs they are Albanians. Hongkonese singers live in a region called Hong Kong, located in China.

Imo Kosovar singers should not represent Albania, HK singers should not represent China, Moldovan singers should not represent Romania, Cypriots should not represent Greece etc, but this already happened in the past even if I insisted a few times to not be allowed. But it’s not my contest so I can’t decide that

Well, I got taiwan and had hongkong in the past and I think it shouldnt Be Problem since nobody claimed it. Hack i would go as far as saying he could include taiwanese songs as far as I dont use them in my NF in his NF, as long as I can use Chinese one aswell for the same circumstances. We're one nation still with different autonomy statuses. Dont be that picky

We're one nation still with different autonomy statuses. Dont be that picky But that opens a can of worms. If we allow the use of songs from dependent territories unless the dependent territory confirms and participates, what happens if someone confirms with Hong Kong after Ivo opens their selection? That being said, this selection was opened after the limit of participants was reached. inactivo We're discussing this on Council right now and will get back to you. But honestly, every edition we go through something similar to this...

But it’s not my contest so I can’t decide that Certainly those instances have happened. Recently, we're doing our best at enforcing stricter rules on who should represent what country/territory for the sake of sensibility. All sides involved are accountable on hypocritical actions. Things change. If I catch something that I consider a reach, I (and/or someone else) are obliged to call it out and open a discussion for it.

EtCetera, we're going to be picky. inactivo, it's a no from us. Based on NNMC rules, Hong Kong is capable of being represented on its own. A Hong Konger representing China invalidates Hong Kong's (and Macau's and Taiwan's) capability to independently represent itself. Unless Sherman Chung has some valid connection to PRC that I didn't know like GEM being born in Shanghai, then that's how it stands.

Yeah, despite I am not a fan of singers from smaller countries going for bigger ones ( GEM representing China), at least it’s fair enough if they do so only if they have connection to that country (such as birthplace or parents). In case that a HK singer is born and living in HK, should not represent China, considering Hong Kong can participate on its own.
