Thank you... I didn't notice that part of the rules (I suppose the curse of participating in contests on different forums is that their rules bleed together).
Happy to help

Northeastern United States — WV 66: Simon & Garfunkel (National Final Underway!)
Hello, and welcome to the Northeastern United States' national final for WorldVision 66! Five editions after our most recent national final, and several months without much success in WorldVision, I have finally managed to get the time to hold a new national final. As with many of our previous national finals, Soundcheck '66 will be a one-artist national final with songs from a returning artist for the Northeastern United States: Simon & Garfunkel. The duo previously represented the region in WorldVision 47 with the song Sound of Silence, which placed 5th in the final.
Simon & Garfunkel was an American folk duo consisting of Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel. Based out of Queens in New York City, the duo was one of the most popular artists of the 1960's in the United States, with such big hits as "The Sound of Silence" (1964), "Mrs. Robinson" (1968), and "Bridge over Troubled Water" (1969). Before breaking up in 1970, the duo released their final, most successful album, Bridge over Troubled Water, which is one of the most successful albums of all time, with about 25 million copies sold.

Re: Northeastern United States — WV 66: Simon & Garfunkel (National Final Underway!)
voted. I think you just surpassed your previous folk NF. A legendary pair and four stunningly beautiful songs. Just send whatever, seriously. I love them all. One makes me extra emotional though
1 I also secretly hate you Aditya for doing this the edition I decide to send my first folk tinged song
You'll slay me in that battle
Good luck! An early wish and prediction, but go for the win! One of these in particular I think could do it.

Re: Northeastern United States — WV 68: Hint
For WorldVision 69, I am planning on one of two options:
I'm not sure yet which one I am planning on doing; the final decision will come based on your comments (if any) as well as the reception to the WorldVision 68 entry I've sent earlier today.
Northeastern United States — WV 68: HintFor WorldVision 69, I am planning on one of two options:
- Sending one of the songs from the Simon & Garfunkel national final (likely the runner-up). I'm still not over how I wasted probably the best entry I've ever sent (and likely the best I will ever send) to WorldVision by failing to vote in time. :'(
- Holding another national final with modern songs — this will definitely happen for WorldVision 70 if I decide to go for S&G for WorldVision 69.
I'm not sure yet which one I am planning on doing; the final decision will come based on your comments (if any

After a few weeks where I disappeared from the forum, the is back in WorldVision. I believe I've addressed the reasons I failed to vote last few times, and I'm confident going forward.
Our next entry will be chosen in a one-artist national final which will begin later this weekend (after the semifinals end).
