South Korea annouces their Themeovision entry It's Minty! Minty (born Kim Arin) is a South Korean singer and rapper who google want me to search for a Thai kpop artist named Mint. Minty got into some hot water when it was revealed that she lied about her age and said she was 18 when she was 28 to compete on a rap contest for highschoolers. Nevertheless, she wisened up and released Arcadia, which is the South Korean entry. Listen to it from the timeslot below, and enjoy the amazing album cover too. 3:21+ Accepted good luck

Song Reveal: South AfricaAfter Monark's fantastic 6th place result, South Africa have decided to return once more for the 3rd edition of Themeovision! After the theme announcement and talks with numerous artists from the various linguistic and ethnic groups of South Africa, our head of delegation Þórir can now reveal the chosen song and artists that will represent the rainbow nation in Marseille! Loyiso Bala feat. Sands - Ndimbonile (Timeslot - 2:49+)Loyiso Bala is a singer from Kwa Nobuhle township in Port Elizabeth, Eastern Cape. He rose to fame as part of the gospel choir trio "The Bala Brothers" with his siblings Zwai & Phelo, the former who made headlines back in 1988 by joining the previously all white Drakensberg Boys Choir School 6 years before the fall of apartheid. He has won 3 South African Music Awards in 1999, 2010 and 2015 and we feel he is a perfect choice to represent the country. His singing companion in Marseille will be flagswaziland Swazi singer Sandziso Matsebula, better known as Sands. Hailing from the neighbouring country eSwatini, Sands has achieved notable success both there and in South Africa especially with his 2017 album Sands of Time, which was the first non-gospel album by Swazi artist to go gold in SA!
Ndimbonile (I saw her) is an emotional ballad which is performed in 3 languages - Xhosa, English & Swazi, a break from Loyiso's usual style but a beautiful song nonetheless, and one that we feel fits the theme perfectly - We wish them best of luck in Marseille!

LA CANZONE PER SAN MARINO Perfect timing. I was wondering who I could use among many choices (most of Italian songs are in... Italian... very surprising...) then this song was released. And I decided to go for it for two reasons:
1) I really love it. 2) I realised that I never sent her before and I have absolutely no explanation for that. So it had to be fixed. Timeslot: 2:16
