Gibraltar? Lihtenstein? Andora? Monaco? San Marino? Luxemburg? Vatican? Kosovo? Includes all of the borrowing on the list like & doesn't have borrowing allowed and it is an independent country so i don't restrict it's participation either with ( ) or because they are independent but they couldn't borrow if the first one comes to an effect. Also doesn't have any statement on borrowing and also it hasn't taken part so Same with actually But these others are included in this one

I'm from the UK and can safely tell you there are plenty of artists and amazing songs from the other three home nations. Yes the most famous acts can be found in England (which has a huge plethora of talent that is not utilised in online contests), but that's not to say that, for example, Wales does not have a high amount of talented artists. As other people have said, you've just got to look. Now, for my opinion on the other rules... In regards to no autonomous regions I support this, however the Faroe Islands have the same status as England and Scotland in Denmark as far as I'm aware, so they should stay either way. I like borrowing so long as exceptionally famous/notable artists do not get borrowed. I am also from the UK i actually live in Wales, yes you do need to look but you have to think about what the taste of music that people have, and my taste of music there isn't alot of Welsh music that fits with my music taste. so that is why i like to borrow as Wales because i can send the music i like as my home country. i think that is unfair that you cant borrow the better artist because there isnt really a fair chance for the other countries If you're from Wales then surely you would want to send music that is actually from Wales? I just can't see why an English artist would represent Wales, unless they have a Welsh parent, for example. If you don't like Welsh music, maybe playing as Wales isn't the best idea. The whole point of having countries is to send music that is actually from the country. I mean come on, if South Korea can earn enough support to win this contest then so can Wales.

I like the restricted borrowing. Borrowing nations should ask the HoD of the original country if the entry can be used. With the United Kingdom situation people need to do research !!!! there are absolutely loads of singer from England Wales Scotland and Northern Ireland. No borrowing or unifying should be needed. but not many good songs from Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland Not many good songs??? WalesCharlotte Church Elin Fflur Jemma Griffiths Lostphophets Rachel K Collier Sian Evans Marina and The Diamonds Tom Jones The Automatic Feeder Kids in Glass Houses Lilygreen & Maguire Electrovamp Duffy Bonnie Tyler Lisa Scott-Lee (Steps) Violet Skies ScotlandNina Nesbitt Darius Campbell Amy Macdonald Sandi Thom Calvin Harris KT Tunstall Lulu Michelle McManus Nicholas McDonald Biffy Clyro CHVRCHES Twin Atlantic Annie Lennox Northern IrelandJanet Devlin Nadine Coyle (Girls Aloud) Leah McFall Eoghan Quigg Snow Patrol Ryan Dolan Hannah Peel HomeTown Michael Sutthakorn Jordan O'Keefe All these and there are plenty more. If you cannot find a good song from them then please let me know

Just because i am from Wales doesn't mean that i am going to send all welsh music all the time, I want to send songs that i like and i can be happy with making the final or not. that is why i have a National Selection so all the songs i like can compete and the better song go forward and to get peoples opinion. but just because someone else want to send the same song as i do but sorry you are just going to either wait to see what the results are of the national selection because there is always the chance that the song might not win, or get over it and find another song.

These contest arent about sending in the most famous and winning. It is exposing people to new music and genres that then spread. I bet if you actually listened to some of the singers you will be surprised. On these forums alot of those in the list have been used and done well. The best thing is to actually try and expose people

you have to take into account about peoples music taste for me for e.g there are only 7 artist there that i actually Is that it? These contest arent about sending in the most famous and winning. It is exposing people to new music and genres that then spread. I bet if you actually listened to some of the singers you will be surprised. On these forums alot of those in the list have been used and done well. The best thing is to actually try and expose people i know it isnt about most famous and winning, i want to send a song i like for example Chvrches is competing in my NS and she is from Scotland i did it because i liked the song not because on here popularity another e.g. i sent Bananrama and Kate Bush for my NS because i liked the song. But im not going to send a song that i dont like another again e.g. #10 i sent Charlotte Church Glitterbombed i sent that song because i really like the song, i know it wasnt going to do well but i still sent it because i liked the song and now Charlotte Church is one of my favorite singers.
