Just for clarification, C4P can still submit one, and we can still comment and rate it - but when it comes to the ABC voting (which henceforth stands for "Asswhupped By Claude") we have to choose somebody else. Right?

Now then. I would ask y'all to get past the politics here, because there's a visual layer that's easy to miss if you're not looking. And it's not just the title.

Thanx for humoring me.

Guess I'm going with this one, even though I just used it in the parody of the month contest, given that it's between this and one of my earlier, and hence worst, parodies: http://www.amiright.com/parody/90s/madonna21.shtml
As always, I'll host the original through the duration of the contest: http://www3.hmc.edu/~afield/Madonna_-_Beautiful_Stranger.mp3

Ethan, is Claude out all the way thru Z, or does he get to come back in after X amount of rounds have passed? I think he should be able to come back after sitting out 2 or 3... Could you clarify please?

For those who have been wondering the two winning song maximum is final. There is no sitting out rounds the winners aren't punished the point is to get as much variety in the finals as possible and to give hope to those who have none (or very little) with amiright cult favorites still eligible. Maybe we can have a favorite claude prez song poll later but i don't want this contest to turn into that. These are the facts... picking when to go for the win and when to simply go for exposure is part of the strategy... and even with c4p gone odds are probably against your best stuff winning whoever you are.

Good point Ethan.  I could've chosen weaker songs; I can't say I didn't consider it but it in these contests I just prefer putting my best stuff forward rather than draw attention to songs I don't like as much.   I appreciate all the support people have given in trying to allow me to continue but you did make the rules clear ahead of time so I'm happy to accept your ruling and hope everyone else will too, even once they have to sit out.

Didn't really talk to Jordan about this, so if he doesn't agree I guess he can f*ck himself  ;D, but we'll be going with "Fire Man".  I love "Fight in These Guys", but the Tigers are respectable now, so it kinda loses its luster.  Enjoy.

Got some questions that are kind of ahead of myself, but I need to know because I am going out of town for a few days.  When do the entries for this 'F' round stop (date)?  And when does the voting for the 'F' round stop (date)?

Well, I only have three "F" parodies, and here's the best of the three. I've been sooooooo busy lately, but I'll try to keep up better. Pretty soon I might be able to start posting recordings.

Well, anyway, here it is, a parody of a classic James Bond theme:
