This is the official thread of the 40th NowNewMusic Contest.
NOTE: THIS WILL BE THE LAST NNMC EDITION OF 2019!
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.

IMPORTANT CONFIRMATION RULES
IMPORTANT CONFIRMATION RULES
DAY 1:
The previous edition's TOP 3 ( France, Canada, and Vietnam), the top 25 active users, NNMC #39 finalists, last edition's Standby Users who submitted an entry, AND non-players who provided replacement votes in last edition's Grand Final can confirm.
DAY 2:
EVERYONE ELSE 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.
OTHER RULES (RED MEANS NEW):
It is mandatory to POST your confirmation in this thread. You don't have to take a country yet if you have not decided as you are allowed to switch countries/entries during the confirmation period.
It's not needed to submit your entry right away when you confirm, but once you submit an entry, you have to submit at least 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 timeslot is required.
To everyone: you are allowed to begin your National Selection even if you aren't allowed to confirm yet. However, starting a National Selection does not guarantee you a place in this edition.
Make sure to send entries ONLY published within September-October 2019 (whether commercially or as official videos). Make sure they were uploaded after Midnight MDT, 01 September 2019 and before Midnight MDT, 01 November 2019. No re-uploads! No November 2019 entries! Ask the NNMC Council (MaRtIn , Tufkai , Matilda , Gregory (inactive) , 𝖱𝖠𝖣𝖤𝖰𝖰 , Wysteria ) if you have any questions by either posting in this thread or sending a PM to all of us.

As there isn't an official update yet, so I'm going by an educated guess again. With Alex returning last edition and Luca now unbanned, both Vaggelis and Anton are kicked out of the Top 25.
