Happy anniversary! Today marks year number 4 since you first became a Sifter and the community is better for having you. Thanks for your contributions!

With 2 pp you can *promote your own vid, but you need gold (and only one pp) to *promote someone else's.

You can get it onto the front page (sorted by hotness) with *quality (and one pp).

I for one was thrilled to get silver and *quality

Congratulations! Your comment has just received enough votes from the community to earn you 1 Power Point. Thank you for your quality contribution to VideoSift.

Yes, have heard of him. I would need to go and re-listen to see if it's coincidence that I've upvoted all the ones without him and none of the ones with him I think it might be...

As for adding Lisa Hannigan... I didn't really think I needed to! I spent a bit of time doing a playlist though. A few non-folk ones may have crept in along with the borderline ones. Feedback welcome.

Have you guys ever heard of Damien Rice, btw? Lisa Hannigan & him used to be a thing. She features a fair bit on his gorgeous gorgeous album "O".>> ^lampishthing:

And, cough , Lisa Hannigan...>> ^oritteropo:
I feel somewhat underprepared! Since all my favourite performers have at least one vid here on vs already, perhaps a eurofolk playlist is in order? I've been following Le Cargo, since every google search of bands I liked ended up there, and posting my favourite ones here.
For a non-exhaustive list to start, I would recommend these English bands:

  • This is the kit
  • Merz
  • I am Kloot

And these from the rest of Europe
  • The Swell Season
  • Melpo Mene
  • Alela Diane

I welcome any other suggestions, too

Could I request a European folk listening list from you in this thread, oritteropo?
You find some nice stuff.

It actually didn't disappear from the listing. It's currently on page 4.

Hey, just wondering... So I have this video that made 10 votes sometime this weekend. Then it appeared n the front page. Then ant, the dastard, downvoted it as he is wont to do. I don't remember what my points were... Do I still have the point for the video? Just curious, like, site mechanics-wise.
