MY Sound (short for Malaysian Sound), was a national selection contest for Ourvision Song Contest. It was started by HafizHalwi for the 10th edition of the contest. It was the first OVSC national selection to give OVSC user score. The contest stopped after the 7th edition. The announcement came hours after "Kisah Hati" became the first MY Sound winner not to qualify for the final in OVSC. After finishing runner-up in the following edition of OVSC, their best result ever, it was announced that an 8th edition of MY Sound will return for the 20th edition of OVSC. On June 26, it was announced that the 11th edition of MY Sound will be held for the 28th edition of OVSC. It was said to be the biggest edition ever for MY Sound.
Voting system[]
Alternate logo.
The current voting system has been used since the second edition. 12, 10, 8, 6, 4 and 2 points are given to six of the participating songs. In the first edition of MY Sound, the points given were: 5, 3, 2 and 1 to four songs.
In the 5th edition, a mixture of Jury and Televote was used. This system has never been used again even though it produced Malaysia's best result ever up until then, a 2nd place with the song "Cantik".

Problems[]
The contest has several times opened song submission for upcoming MY Sound editions to OVSC editions where national selections haven't been allowed to start yet. MY Sound was asked to slow down but claimed they needed more time than other national selections because of their geographical location. OVSC accepted this but have never announced that song submission for these future editions of MY Sound has been open themselves.
During the 4th edition of MY Sound, there were speculations about if the host might have added additional votes to make sure Kisah Hati would come to win the contest.
Awards[]
- 1st NS Award for the 7th edition.
