Guys, just wow. This is impressive. All of you did so well!!! I don't know what to say. Everyone of you should be so stinkin' proud of yourselves. Everyone of you deserves to win.

366Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ67JPvXIwv

But here we are and I have to choose a winner. So. I have read through everyone's entries. And to be fair since musical preferences range widely, I have listened to NONE of your guys' songs. So all judging is based only on why you like the song.

So here we go!!!!!!
