1 Point to Jeff Reuben (Sorry buddy, I love the lyrics, and I think it's more the fact that you have to sound like that to hit the OS correctly)

2 Points to Phil Alexander (Terrific recording quality, but it's hard to get for me because I haven't seen the movie)

3 Points to Matthias (Your moving on up, and this one showed it)

4 Points to Red Ant (2nd best recording I've heard by you to date)

5 Points to Mikey Squirrel (Solid all around, easily your best recording AND video to date)

Woo-hoo!! My second gold! Thank you to everyone, it really makes those three long months working on that video even more worth it. Hopefully I will have my next animated parody venture up for the next comp.
Congrats to Dave and Red Ant, and to Phil, Jeff and Matty.. great job guys!

Yay! Well done, and well-deserved Mikey :) 

..congrats too to BAD & Jack.  And the rest of you.  You know who you are.

I kind of assumed everyone would know Heroes - there are way too many in-jokes in the song for people who don't - not that it would have made any difference, as I didn't have anything else to submit. I've done a lot more performing this quarter, but not recorded anything, especially as I've been performing new stuff that's taken any free time I had to learn.  No idea whether I'll get anything recorded for next POT... we'll see how it goes.
