Corsavision Song Contest

The **Corsavision Song Contest**, sometimes abbreviated to **CSC** and often known simply as **Corsavision**, is an international songwriting competition organised annually by the Corsavision Broadcasting Union (CBU), featuring participants representing countries around the world. The competition is based in the real-life **Eurovision Song Contest**, and was founded in September of 2021. The current Executive Director is ESC Cyanx.

## History

### Animal Crossing Era

The Corsavision Song Contest was founded in September 2021 by Tom Nook and ESC Cyanx, who wanted to create a song contest for villagers in the Isla Corsa island (Cyanx's ACNH Island) in order to select countries, entries and give out points in the same format as Eurovision (except for the first edition, which used the Melodifestivalen scoring system). The first edition was held in Nuuk, Greenland, and had 13 countries participating. The edition was won by France, when Boone won the contest with "Dither", by GEISTE. The second edition was held in Lyon, France, and introduced a new round (which was scrapped after the edition): the Second Chance Round, in which all non-qualifiers could be in a round where the Top 5 qualified to the final. The edition was won by Moldova, a delegation which joined as one of the four extra countries, when Dobie won with "Back to Her", by Holy Molly. The third edition had the first non-european winner, when Daisy and Japan won the edition with "Secret Story of the Swan", by IZ\*ONE, and set the record for biggest margin between the winner and the runner up, with 26 Points dividing Japan and runners-up Finland. Osaka was the city chosen to host the fourth edition, in Japan, the first outside of Europe since Nuuk in the first edition. Australia secured their win when Hopkins won the contest with "SLOW DANCING IN THE DARK", by Joji. The fifth edition took Corsavision to Australia, the first time the contest went to Oceania. It proved to be a quick trip from Asia and back, as debuters Vietnam took the win over South Korea by 16 Points when Flip won with "Keeper", by Hana Vu. However, for the sixth edition, the contest was taken back to Europe, as Ireland took a shock win over 01 winners France, as Filbert performed "Saving All My Love", by Empara Mi. The Seventh Edition resulted in the first winner hailing from the Americas, as the United States, a country which debuted back in Lyon, won the contest with a record-breaking margin of 42 Points between them and runners-up Ireland, when Hippeux won with "Stuck", by Tedy. The eighth edition took the contest to the Americas for the first time, and the edition was won by the United Kingdom, which had competed in every edition prior to Atlanta 08, with a previous best result of 4th, achieved back at Lyon 02. Timmy took his first ever win in eight editions, with the song "ATM", by Bree Runway, yet again taking the contest to the northwest of the European continent. But the contest yet again went back to Asia, after South Korea, who came excruciatingly close to winning in the fifth and eighth editions, finally taking their deserved top spot, when Étoile, who had been the South Korean HoD since the fourth edition in Osaka, won with "Eleven", by IVE.
