In related news (reporter Xiao Yue), no single song can sum up a city, but a song can make people fall in love with one. To capture Tangshan's character and help more people know and love the city, the municipality held a Tangshan city folk song competition, and the results were announced yesterday.
The grand prize went to "The City Called Tangshan", first prize to "My Home Is in Tangshan", and second prize to "That Year"
and "Tangshan Memories". Third prize went to "Phoenix Mountain", "Tangshan, Tangshan" and "You in Tangshan"; outstanding contribution awards to "My Heart in Tangshan" and "Wenzi"; and merit awards to "Tang City", "City of Love", "Not Leaving Again", "Missing Tangshan" and "Tangshan Lu
bei".
The competition was organised jointly by the municipal publicity department, Tangshan Radio and Television and the Tangshan Federation of Literary and Art Circles from June to October this year. It attracted wide public interest, with 107 entries submitted and put to an online vote that drew 2.538 million visits by the close. In September the organising committee invited music experts from Tangshan to judge the entries and decide the awards.
