**PLEASE NOTE**  I wanted to thank everyone for being so patient as this contest has not stayed quite on course time wise.  As a DJ my life has taken off in unbelievable directions.  I have been earning better money than I've ever earned; I have met so many amazing people doing what I am doing; I still look forward to going to work everyday because what I do is sing, dance, and live music of every genre and type.  I say this because I know I have kinda disappeared other than failingly trying to keep up with one contest here.  My releases are seriously behind schedule, Modern Mayhem is nearly fully produced and yet I've had little time to promote my singles and no new show has been released in over a year.  I am literally 9 courses away from finishing college, and at that point I do intend to be more active again.  I have not forgotten about the AmIRight community, and I have not lost my love for writing, reading, or recording parodies.  I know my life has been hectic, it was in shambles when I found AmIRight and parodies were a form of release, now I've picked up the pieces and my life seems to be stabilizing and I can see a light.  I'm waking up happy, I'm looking forward to things, I am carrying a 4.0 in my senior year in college and I am doing something I love and getting paid for it.  Some of you were here when things weren't going so well, and I wanted you to all know I still love the AmIRight community, and despite everything I do not plan to ever leave fully so long as the board and site exist.  Thanks, I'm off my soap box, Hopefully I can stay on task a little better since these courses aren't quite as bad as the last two semesters have been, and the remaining courses don't sound nearly as daunting as Intermediate or Advanced Accounting were. . .

As stated prior to this thread, VOTING is worth points.  If you vote and did not enter this contest, you will get 3 points towards the overall 5 year standings in the Artistry contest.  When you vote as an entrant in this round, you receive 5 points for voting. . .that means no one who votes ends with no points. . . .

Anyway, the rules are pretty similar to other contests.  This is round 116 so please know that ALL rounds will count EQUALLY toward the final standings, and NO rounds will be omitted from the final total.

1. All participants must comment on all entrants and vote by the deadline.  Failure to vote will forfeit all points from this round, and if that is less than 20 points, the difference will be forfeited in the following round (No Disqualifications)

2. Voting will take place by replying to this thread

3. If a person withdraws from an Artistry Round prior to the end of a round, all entrants who voted for that person's entry will be permitted to pick one new song to earn a bonus point, all other songs will be realigned accordingly.  There will be no penalty on those who don't change their vote.

4. Once a vote is posted, it cannot be changed UNLESS rule 3 applies OR there was a double-vote by accident.

5. Late entries will be accepted until the 1st vote has been posted.

6. The deadline is a strict deadline, the moment the date has reached the day after the deadline, no votes will count, this is to reduce last minute voting, or sympathy/favoritism towards different entrants.

7. We ask that any entrant who posts a link to his/her original song (source of parody) not be DKTOS for the contest.

8. All other basic competition rules as applied in other competitions are generally followed.  The rules may not be changed or altered unless two/thirds of those voting in a round where a rule change is requested agrees.  Rules may be added by host (Below Average Dave) if it was a rule in the ABC or SOTM contest that was thought to be common knowledge, but not known by a particular entrant.

You all did great this round! They were all hilarious and very original!

The live performance video for "Numb/Encore" makes it difficult, if not impossible, to read along to Matthias' parody.

I would use http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3METMAHEnvk as your guide unless Dave revises the opening post.
