That's so funny, I was planning on writing a song about Dave being born!  ;D  (Just kidding, of course)

Why does the deadline always seem to come so fast for this contest...

I'm going to do a parody of "Eye of the Tiger" about Telemarketers called "Called Me At Supper"

I was looking through the 1983 chart, and I saw so many I've already parodied that qualify as annoying and have never been in contest, this one belongs in a contest. . .so here it is!

I have a few in my catalog that I think will work, too...but I'm trying to finish something new.  It's slow going.  I lost my parody mojo, I fear.  :-\\

BUT...if I don't finish it in time, I'll enter something I've already got done.

I'll have "Everybody wants to Sell you Stuff" to "Everybody wants to Rule the World" up tomorrow, depending on when the update is. Ha ha, finally proof-read it. Got some outtakes too. :c]

I sure hope this one isn't about Telemarketing because that's what mine's about  :-\\

Personally I think telemarketing is annoying enough to warrant any number of parodies about it that are made. . . ::)

Agreed.

And we've had several entries in several rounds with similiar (or exactly the same) theme...it should be fine either way.

Okay...for the record...I would rather talk to telemarketers all day long than shake hands with a guy who has a "cold fish" grip.

:P  I'll chime in and say I have no problem with multiple parodies about telemarketers.   :P

I've just submitted this to Amiright.com and should post it here tomorrow...
