NS Idol -(Last call for entries and first call for voting)

Postby Coffee Cakes » Sat Oct 19, 2013 7:41 pm

Welcome to the ugliest contest in NS history.

Here you will have the opportunity to enter into one of the most prestigious competitions, judge (and mercilessly mock) the entrants and potentially, win the grand prize of a year's satisfaction of possibly winning... or losing gloriously. Stick around, grab a $10 bag of popcorn and feel free to cast your vote, so lets get down to business!

Contest Rules
The contest will be open for 10 days from the time of this post to allow anyone who wants to join in to post a link to them singing something. (doesn't have to be either bad or good.) The next day we begin nominations to decide who is the worst, and who is the best. Whoever has the most votes at the end of a week are the 'winners' of this contest and will receive... nothing, except for the adoration of maybe 2 dozen internet denizens.

Entrants and Links to Their 'singing'
(To be edited as more entries come in)
Luzy's butchering of the Internationale.
Zocra's rendition of Wrecking Ball
Maryginia's butchering of Codeine
Phocidaea tries a few tunes.
Nass sings a spot of Bound To You
Nebesina adapts a limerick to a country song.
A sample of Gidge's singing
To kick off the fun, here's my butchering of Kamelot.

Does it have to be the entire song? Can it just be part of a chorus...like only a couple seconds long?

I'd prefer the whole song, but it's not an absolute.

My terrible butchering of Ave Maria... well not me and not really a butchering.

So, is this competition judged by voting polls or by the OP? Or what else?

Well, I lied... this is neither "Bizarre Love Triangle" nor "Soldier of Love", though rest assured I did try those.

The problem is that I have memorized the instrumental fills better than the lyrics, and constantly felt tempted to throw them in, to almost comically bad effect.

Instead I did "Don't You (Forget About Me)", AKA the Breakfast Club song.

You will notice I had the same habit of throwing in instrumental fills, but, believe me, not nearly to the same extent. And I forgot the last verse, basically. Ignore these parts.

EDIT: Consider that my official submission, but I forgot my other attempt: "Save Me". With bonus "Blurred Lines" at the very end. Also, I am totally the next Roger Waters. Note that if the lyrics offend you in any way, a) I did not write them, and b) they're satirical.

It's supposed to be you, the player, singing.

And the competition is judged by anybody that wants to fill out their nominations, after entries have been submitted.

As to rapping... I personally don't consider it singing, but there are folks here that do, so I'm going to allow it.
