About The Countdown

The Countdown is an online music contest with members from all over the world. Every month each nation selects a song from their country and all the national choices are entered into a competition to be the best song of the month.

This blog serves as a base for US participation in the Countdown competition. Our preselections are mini-competitions where people can vote to choose the US entry for the next month's competition.

Feel free to vote through the comment system, make a suggestion, or let us know if you would like to participate further.

If you would like to suggest a song to be featured, email me at . If your song has been featured and you would like it removed, email me at the same address and I will oblige.
