We're a visual society. Or so I've heard.
Ever since TV came along, no one wants to just hear things anymore. Although, we seem to have moved away from asking this question:
"Have you seen that new song by ______?"
Remember that? When videos were still king and MuchMusic used to play them without bad comedians making fun of them?
Well, Can indie artists are still making videos. Usually on the cheap, and geared solely to the internet. They're forced to be innovative and even more creative.
So we want to honour their efforts with The Bucky Award for Most Watchable Song!
There are three, easy ways to nominate artists for The Bucky Awards:
:: comment below
:: email r3social@cbc.ca
:: tweet @cbcradio3
Nominations for this category are open from Nov 1 - Nov 5, and anything played on Radio 3 released between December 2011 and now is eligible.
We will announce the long list of ten nominees in each category on November 13th. Your votes will narrow it down to a short list of five nominees, which will be announced on November 21st with voting closing on November 28th. The 2012 Bucky Awards will be handed out in our traditional gala ceremony on December 7th.
I don't know where you are on your nomination ideas, but this one has to be up there, right?
