Why is this song entry in VocaDB even though it has no Vocaloid?
Songs covered by 5 song entries with vocal synthesis are allowed in VocaDB. Songs included in an album with a vocal synthesis are also allowed.
Rule 12: No out-of-scope song entries
Songs without voice-synth vocals (Vocaloid/UTAU/CeVIO/etc.) should not be added, unless:
- The song is part of an album entry.
- The song has at least 5 voice-synth covers (these can be added as cover unifier entries).
