I'm opening this now and will give it until the end of Wednesday 5th October for nominations.
The voting phase for the July 2016 contest is still open until 26th.
Please nominate your entry that was released or promoted in August 2016, did not reach the top 40 and is not from a #1 album, or an album you think is likely to be #1 very soon.

can that video be viewed by someone who does not have a facebook account? One of our rules is that you do not need to sign up to any service to be able to access the content.

A lot more acts are using Facebook as they get paid better. It is more that more and more songs will be exempt from your chart as they switch services www.youtube.com/watch?v=_PhAMlJDMeI

Given the love of artists who were big in the past, I am going for Matthew Wilder - Freaks Of Nature. Who says you can't make good music anymore at 63?

Maybe one day I will create my own video site.
It won't be free-for-all for anyone to upload a video to. It would be strongly managed and no "audio" videos would be permitted nor live ones unless it is to promote a release of the exact same live track.
They would also have to be very clear to state who wrote the song and therefore whether it would be very clear whether it were their own song or a cover.
Users of the site can create playlists from these videos. Ads would be hosted in a manner that they can't be blocked and appear around the videos, not between them, and that would raise proper revenue for the artists.
It would also be a rule that once you have put the video there you cannot take it away again. Plus there will be no discrimination on location, unless the content is blocked from certain countries due to that country's regulations.
