So for right now the singoff is between Impressive Newcomer Joshsparkless, Singoff Survivor Suavegentleman, and Idol Veteran Spiderfab, BUT There is still one more round to impress the judges and save yourselves
Round 2, Phase 2: Welcome to Demented's Room
In the spirit of Halloween, I give you all 2 demented choices, but as in all of life you must choose one path on your quest for greatness.
Path 1: Opposite World Choose a song reinterpreted in a different style (A Country version of a rap song, a techno version of a opera song, etc etc)
Path 2: Lost In My Mind Choose a song that shows someone is not in their right mind. For example, the person could go crazy, or already be crazy. Perhaps they are not in their right mind because of a breakup or a death and they are lost in their depression. Perhaps instead of using common sense they are using love or hate to fuel their impulses. Maybe they could be intoxicated, or even could be recovering from shock.
Overall point for Path 2: THE PERSON IN THE SONG IS NOT IN A NORMAL STATE OF MIND.
So, for each of you, choose a song that fits either path. Just one song for one path. Deadline is Monday, November 4th in the afternoon, Tuesday Afternoon at the latest.
HAPPY HALLOWEEN EVERYONE!!!

A round all about me? *evil squee*
I will say this: One of those paths will get more points with me than the other. I figure you can guess which one.
And my rankings for the previous round:
01. Evelyn Evelyn - Have You Seen My Sister Evelyn (This maybe my favorite song of the compitition.) 02. Billy Idol - White Wedding (A true classic.) 03. Tim McGraw - Don't Take The Girl (I cried. Oh, dear gawd, did I cry.) 04. Hank Williams Jr - Family Tradition 05. Mary J Blige - Family Affair (I think the only way this song "qualifies" is because the title has "family" in it, but damn do I love this song. And I think I'll get flack from others for it being this high... I don't care.) 06. Kacey Musgraves - Merry Go Round (Acoustic) (How the hell did you pick a song about my family?) 07. Madness - Our House (Another classic choice. My demented mother approves.) 08. Elton John - Blessed 09. Bruce Springsteen - Family Song 10. Waylon Jennings and Willie Nelson - Mama's Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up to Be Cowboys 11. Montgomery Gentry - Merry Christmas From The Family (My family, again. I bet you can guess that I am a demented redneck.) 12. The Jackson 5 - ABC 13. The Ramones - We're a Happy Family 14. Murder By Death - Brother 15. Chuck Wicks - Stealing Cinderella 16. Death - Politicians In My Eyes 17. Orleans - Still The One 18. Night Ranger - Sister Christian (I maybe one of the few people who doesn't like this song.) 19. The Mountain Goats - This Year 20. The Verve - The Drugs Don't Work (Maybe it's just me but this guy's voice was like nails on a chalk board. Ugh.)
Spoiler: The correct path is 3.
But, Demented, there is no 3.
That's what you think.

I'm quite happy to not have laid another egg.
I will say though that Death didn't get nearly enough love.

Was tempted to send in an Alvin And The Chipmunks version of a rap song with a lot of profanity that is really hilarious but passed cause i thought that's more remix then reinturpation/remake.

Things have been going downhill since 1.3. Hopefully I can stop the slide this round.

Geez Louise, I marked so freaking hard for Death! If a song like that gets no sold in this competition, then I have absolutely no shot at this thing. My hat's off to you, Knailsic.
Also marked for: Have You Seen My Sister Evelyn? Mary J Blige - Family Affair (!!!!!!!!!) Merry Go Round
^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^
Some low rankings for those songs as well, thus further proving my point that I have no shot in this competition this season.

Can I say that, as a host, this is so far my favorite season to date, and this is just the beginning

Serious props to Demented and @irontyger for introducing me to that Nick Cave song. I freaking love it.
