Your Love Song Contest

The Your Love Song Contest is a monthly singing competition held among many of the active member countries of the Your Broadcasting Union (YBU). Each member country submits a song to be performed on live television and radio and then casts votes for the other countries' songs to determine the most popular song in the competition. The Contest has been broadcast every edition since its inauguration in 2016.

History
The concept of the contest is based on the traditional contest, Eurovision Song Contest. However the countries competing in this contest are imaginary countries made up by the players themselves.

The first ever edition took place in New York, the city in United States. A total of 38 countries competed in the very first edition where Greece managed to win the final as the first country to win the contest. The following contest was therefore hosted in Greece.

Format
The participating countries submit songs, which are performed live in a television programme transmitted across the Your Love Network by the YBU simultaneously to all countries. A "country" as a participant is represented by one television broadcaster from that country: typically, but not always, that country's national public broadcasting organisation. The programme is hosted by one of the participant countries, and the transmission is sent from the auditorium in the host city. During this programme, after all the songs have been performed, the countries then proceed to cast votes for the other countries' songs: nations are not allowed to vote for their own song. At the end of the programme, the winner is declared as the song with the most points. The winner receives, simply, the prestige of having won, and the winning country is invited to host the next edition.
