Redditvision Song Contest 4 was the fourth edition of the Redditvision Song Contest. Following u/Phoenix963's win in the previous edition with Indila's "Dernière danse", the contest was hosted for the first time in France. It was hosted in Lyon, France during the first half of March 2017. With the slogan "Synchronised Rhythms", it was the first edition to use a slogan in RSC, and also the first edition to have an official logo. The graphics were created by users u/FlohNumba1 and u/TheDutchDen. In addition, the Redditvision Awards were introduced.
The live show begun on March 13th, 2017. On March 16th, 2017, the winner of the contest was revealed to be u/TheDutchDen and Canada with their song "Oublie-moi", written and performed by Cœur de Pirate. While no entry has ever gotten nul point in RSC, Malaysia's infamous "Lagu Radio" came close as it only received one single point.
Participants
A total of twenty-five countries participated in the contest, an increase of one from edition 3. It only consisted of one final, as there were not enough delegates to have semi-finals. This was also the last edition without semi-finals, as a subsequent rise in the number of participants had prompted the start of semi-finals. Following the introduction of semi-finals in the next edition, this edition also introduced the automatic qualifiers and that meant that the top 6 users would therefore automatically qualify for the next grand final.
u/blandwhiteguy withdrew from the contest, while u/dnikandjam returned and u/ani_shira made a debut. The other twenty-three partcipants from the previous edition all took part, making this one of the most consistent editions in terms of users.
Armenia, Haiti, Hungary, Israel, Niue and Romania made their first appearance in the contest.
