The results are in! 🎶

Hey everyone!

Thank you for participating, I gathered the votes submitted until this morning and put together this little graphics to announce the results, it looks like The Northern Boys were a clear favourite with their eccentric yet catchy song ; Azahriah and Bagarre, both ex-aequo, follow them closely in second position.

Congratulations to everyone for submitting great songs!

The ranking is based on the average position out of every vote, here are the details:

  1. The Northern Boys - Sexy Train (avg. rank : 3.4)
  2. Azahriah - Introvertált dal (4.2)
  3. Bagarre - On est les mêmes (4.2)
  4. Royel Otis - Heading for the Door (4.5)
  5. Tiki Taane - Tangaroa (4.6)
  6. Cassette Beasts - Your Inception (4.9)
  7. Pil - Dronning af månen - (5.0)
  8. Lu Kala - Hotter Now (5.2)
  9. Puggy - Lost Child (5.5)

The ranks are super close, I personally liked every single song and it was hard to have to rank them, because the last position didn't necessarily mean the song was bad.

But wait there's more! Here's a ranking based on how many time each song was ranked first :

  1. The Northern Boys - Sexy Train (21 times ranked first!)
  2. Tiki Taane - Tangaroa (13)
  3. Bagarre - On est les mêmes (10)
  4. Azahriah - Introvertált dal (8)
  5. Royel Otis - Heading for the Door (8)
  6. Lu Kala - Hotter Now (4)
  7. Pil - Dronning af månen (3)
  8. Cassette Beasts - Your Inception (2)
  9. Puggy - Lost Child (1)

That means every single song submitted was at least one person's favourite song, which is heartwarming, everyone got to discover new music!

There's even more! Here's a small list of every instance's most favourite songs (the songs that were most ranked first for each instance), Belgium sadly didn't vote :

  • Australia (aussie.zone) : The Northern Boys & Tiki Taane
  • Canada (lemmy.ca) : The Northern Boys
  • Denmark (feddit.dk) : The Northern Boys
  • France (jlai.lu) : The Northern Boys, Royel Otis
  • Hungary ([email protected]) : Tiki Taane
  • New Zealand (lemmy.nz) : Pil
  • Programming.dev (programming.dev) : The Northern Boys
  • United Kingdom (feddit.uk) : Bagarre, Tiki Taane, Lu Kala
  • 3rd party voters : The Northern Boys, Bagarre, Royel Otis

Again, I want to reiterate how thankful I am that y'all participated. I didn't expect any response at all for such a niche event in such a niche social media, it was scary to be responsible that everything goes smoothly, but so rewarding to see people coming together and sending songs, and discovering new music from you!

What's next for Lemmyvision?

I'm going to keep the community open if you want to use it to share lesser known songs from where you're from, that you'd like people to discover, feel free to use [email protected] as you wish, as long as it's in the spirit of this contest.

Obviously another edition will happen, and hopefully with more people, as Lemmy grows, and gathers more users, and I manage to make contact with more instances, there is an opportunity to discover even more music! If you'd like to help, feel free to send a message too!

However, I do find the idea of having smaller scale, thematic, events, or just prompts in between, like how the speedrunning event AGDQ has the SQDG in summer ; I'll think about something, but feel free to share ideas as well.

Thank you, and see you next year for Lemmyvision 2 !! 🎶

For better or worse, this is now Feddit.uk's anthem (kinda) so let's listen again.
