Extra Note: If you Don't Know The Original Song (DKTOS), many of the parodies in this month's contest have the song in one form or another (lyrics, MP3, MIDI, etc) either on this voting thread or in the comment section of the parody.

1st choice- 5 points
2nd place- 4 points

Let me know asap if any links are busted. Thanks.

Some of the original songs are provided on the SOTY thread, I've noticed. Argentina and Yellow Ribbon for starters.  :)

Linky for Matthias's "Qualing" is invalid.

yea...I thought it was my computer.

Fixed, thanks for noticing.

I'll add those in a moment. Thanks.

Seeing as there's a lot of other MP3s around (and I've already had one DKTOS on mine), for the duration of this contest, I'll leave this one downloadable:

Give Me Hope, Joanna

It was a tough one. So many great parodies: Fry a Yellow Liver,... You've Been Blessed,... Don't Drive the Car, Angelina... A View to a Quail.... But in the end only one can win. I found the One that really made me LMAO. And so, without any further ado, my votes for SOTM are:

5th Place (1 Point) = You've Been Blessed (An Ode to Cults)
4th Place (2 Points) = Quailing
3rd Place (3 Points) = (My Guy) Wants a Little Help with My Friend
2nd Place (4 Points) = Fry a Yellow Liver Drowned in Cold Smoked Brie
1st Place (5 Points) = .... (Dramatic pause) ....

(Drumroll! Increase dramatic tension...)

Name Is Jack

No explanations this time...I'm lazy, and I have work to do. But take note that not all of my choices are the most-winning parodists...good luck to all!

5 Points to Kristof
4 Points to Red Ant
3 Points to Phil Alexander
2 Points to Confission
1 Point to the_conqueror_of_parodies

Added to the voting thread under your entry.

After getting over the hurdle of the Song of The Year competition, the judging for this contest is a snap.

5pts=Kristof's Mall
4pts=wannabemustang's Detroit lament
3pts=Johnny D's fried liver with fava beans and a nice Chianti (slslslslsp!);)
2pts=Stu's tryst with Angelina
1pt=Phil's mama grope.

After much anguish, I narrowed it down to twelve. Any five of those twelve could've been in my top five, but here are the survivors:

1 point to the conqueror of parodies
2 points to Cat
3 points to Red Ant
4 points to Kristof
5 points to wannabemustangjockey

Thanks Peter for finding these MP3s. I added them above.

--Just a reminder--

Today is March 15, 2006. You still have until the end of the month to cast your votes, or you will be disqualified. And there are so many great parodies that I would hate to see disqualified, especially the Cheney/quail parodies and the Jack parody. Also, good luck to everyone and may the best song win. :)

1) (My Guy) Wants a Little Help With My Friend
2) Quailing
3) AmIRight 
4) The Last Cut Is The Hardest
5) Fry A Yellow Liver Drowned In Cold Smoked Brie

...may the best song win.

Witty. Fast-paced. Great!

If i'm honest, at first I groaned and rubbed my head when I looked down the looooong list of parodies and mp3s I had to trawl through, but in the end I have to admit I enjoyed it. The best month i've taken part in so far, easily

Thank you to everyone for making this such an enjoyabe experience and good luck  :)

5 Points To: Stuart McArthur
- Because a vote for him, is a vote for my title, and that

Uh, Dak, the Nickelodeon Idiot parody was done by Chris Bodily TM, not Tim Mayfield, FYI.

And Matthias...I guess that's a compliment. "newbie" Bah...we're all there at one point! :P

Oops  :-[

In my defence, though, it was 2am when I was typing this up  :P

DAK... In your defense it could of perhaps been a good old fashioned typo, I mean Him is not that far away from Tim....

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaallllrighty then! (Quote from Ace Ventura) Let's get down to business!

1 point to Confission, who got whacked on the head, poor fellow. ;)

2 points to K1chyd, who told wha we all feel when we judge these comps...don't we?

3 points to Johnny D, for his journey into total randomness.

4 points to Cat, who made her way through the darker parts of religion...and made it. And finally...

5 points to Kristof Robertson, who tackled We Din't Start The Fire...and did one hell of a job.

I'd like to see a contest which contains a parody of that, American Pie, 88 lines about 44 women...won't THAT be a hard comp for parodists to tackle!

I kinda figured that would happen a lot. ::)


BTW: Here are my votes:

5 Points: "(My Guy) Wants a Little Help With My Friend" by Arwen
Maybe if she gets lucky in this contest it will spread to her love life, both would be well deserved.

4 Points: "For The Discerning Buyer: The Mall With It All" by Kristof Robertson
A great parody, but with Spaff

Brilliant month, as always.

5 pts: #13 Phil...stupendously funny; accent parodies always get me.

4 pts: #8 Cat...WOW! What a great write! Keep it up....

3 pts: #11 Red Ant...the Jackster ups the ante yet again

2 pts: #9 Confission...a LOL funny sound-matching parody.
