We have a winner!

Congrats to the writer of "Visitor" as you are deemed the one who rocked the hardest for this contest. I know that my toddler voted for this song, as she found it the most sing-a-long-able of them all (she really did try and imitate the infectious "ha-ha"). It is also hard to ignore the raw power of such lyrics as "I don't know if we're genetically compatible but I know my emotions."

A secondary congrats is due to "When an Alien Offers to Take You Home With Her." This song was clearly written by an alien as manifest in the very pro-invasion stance it takes as well as the sheer other-worldly prettiness.

For the non-winners, you should know that you are all truly winners. And I don't mean that just in an "every time you try you win" sort of way--thought that is true. I mean that we had some seriously creative entries this time. I know I personally was torn between three possible choices. And I have to give a shout-out to "Pale Winnebago" which turned post-apocalypse into a fantastic alt-country-ish anthem of laziness. Gems like that are why this contest is worth having. And I'm just too tired of writing this to do any more shout-outs but I haven't even mentioned the song my own husband voted for and touted as pure brilliance--he has a point. Okay I'm done. Go forth and sing. Or whatever.

No more voting extensions!

This is it chitlins. So best be getting in your votes by the ominous day that is 15 April. We have a clear leader at this point, but considering the number of votes we are talking about the leader could still be toppled with 2 or 3 more votes.
