OT: Say Dave, I recognize the names of the competitors as Dr. Demento performers...when are you going to attempt to grace the airwaves of Dementia with your parodic presence?  ;)

If I have time, I will check out the page you cite and give the vote where the vote is due.

Believe it or not, at the urging of you and several others, I have decided to put together a CD and send it in, now I just need help deciding which songs are my best, because I am not my biggest fan:)

As a person who has had 2 prior attempts to send material to the good Dr. himself, make doubly sure that what you are sending is coast-to-coast radio airplay quality. Of course, just send in your best...I think those are the only 2 criteria he really looks for (in addition to if he likes it). He really does listen to submissions!

Wow, listening to the Hey There Delilah parodies back to back was trancey. . .it just seemed like one never ending song, kinda like a Bob Dylan song but with varying voices. . .

Just a reminder, the next battle is coming up soon, so anyone wishing to vote on this one may want to do so soon because I'm not sure if the deadline is the end of all 6 weeks of battles or if it's the next battle. . .

Obviously I don't know who's winning, but I don't have a huge fan base over there, and I think I'm losing both battles I'm in, but I also think it's close, I'll post here when the next sets have been posted  Wish me luck!

Some people have misattributed the Ugly Girl parody to Weird Al.

Fortunately, we know better.

Edit: I'll go and look it up and find out(I know a site that has listings).

Extra Edit: Crap, it's not known on Not Al Page.
