Komorebi Town | Dulcet Ebullience | DEBC | 1st round (4th) | |
75 editons, how time flies. Dulcet Ebullience has it's own unique history and experience in Internatia Song Contest, as we have come and gone throughout. I've had my highs, I've had my lows, But no matter, the nation always found our way back to this contest. As a sign of good will, Dulcet Ebullience Broadcasting Corporation (DEBC), the bidding broadcaster, which has hosted ISC 40 as well, as the last 3 editions of ISCC, wishes to present it's candidature. There's no denying that Internatia has had it's fair share of trials and tribulations. With every success, there is always an inevitable aftermath. With 55+ nations, it's an inevitability not everyone will see eye-to-eye. I just feel it's important that we remember that we are alive in this world. Life is not worth harboring resentment and anger. You not need these emotions when you can find solace other things make you happy and we need to learn to live as one.
