All you guys have done such amazing stuff! I'm totally nervous. I have no idea how the whole subjective thing is going to work but I know I wouldn't want to be Andy tomorrow! Good luck everyone!

I hate to be totally random since lately we've been mostly talking about the contest, but does anyone have all the lyrics to Fade to Black written out? I would greatly appreciate it if someone could post 'em! Danke!

Lifted directly from Cantarell:
I remember your heart when we were apart as a distant bright shining light I have to confess I was a mess picking up pieces I couldn't put right There were some nights out in the city it was so dark I couldn't see my own hands There were some nights you'll never hear about they slip away as time expands But you called me back from the fade to black I've never heard a better sound You said come back, oh, yeah you can come back and stop all your messing around I remember your face, your uncommon grace when I gave you reasons to doubt me The even tone and you let it be known that you would leave with or without me I pinned a picture of you to my wall to recall the loss that came with my choice But I stuck to the script even on the empty In the silence I heard your voice Calling me back from the fade to black I've never heard a better sound You said come back, why, why don't you come back and stop all your messing around
Enjoy!
And you all will lurve the lyrics for Still Awake and Blew Myself. I know I do!
ETA: I made one more video. It's kinda crappy, but well, I like to sing in the car. Click it or ticket.
Oh, if we're posting lyrics, I'm in. I Blew Myself Up Over You
It wasn't fair the way you looked Tossed your hair and sunk your hook I had to stare, it was uncomfortable You stole away, but I'm the crook I climbed to the roof, pulled out the fuse I blew myself up over you
I'll never talk to you But it doesn't matter because I have eyes They've seen enough to know You'll never feel a thing Neither will I I was alone with the moon, despair was renewed I blew myself up over you
Red and white like fireworks Funny how it doesn't hurt
Now I lie in a pool because your love is so cruel I blew myself up over you.
(That is my current fave song, fyi)
And while we're at it...
I Don't Wanna Know About My City (awesome lyrics by Joe Willie of The Unsacred Hearts)
Late night, I tie my boots tight Shut out the last light and open the door. Kids on the block kick the midnight The king beats his retreat Down the alleys, to the palace Safe from the street I don't wanna know about my city I don't wanna know about my city at all I don't wanna know about my city without my queen, my queen
Silver chains, the full moon wanes All that remains a sliver of white Shining light on the river A shiver runs down my spine Across the bridges, through the tunnels Where once you were mine I don't wanna know about my city I don't wanna know about my city at all I don't wanna know about my city without my queen, my queen
Time stands still, let me stay here till I've had my fill Time don't quit, you take only what time permits You can taste it, you can touch it, then it is gone
I don't wanna know about my city (the bricks and the noise were so pretty) I don't wanna think about my city (the old song made a beautiful roar) I don't wanna hear about the city no more I don't wanna know about my city without my queen, my queen
Yeah, I was actually wondering the same thing. Tecccccchnically, Thursday 12:00 AM PDT means the beginning of Thursday, but people can take it the other way. Perhaps we should ask Andy? I guess it might not make that much difference at this point.

ditto, good luck everybody!

I have to confess I was a mess picking up pieces I couldn't put right
There were some nights out in the city it was so dark I couldn't see my own hands
There were some nights you'll never hear about they slip away as time expands
But you called me back from the fade to black
I've never heard a better sound
You said come back, oh, yeah you can come back and stop all your messing around
I remember your face, your uncommon grace when I gave you reasons to doubt me
The even tone and you let it be known that you would leave with or without me
I pinned a picture of you to my wall to recall the loss that came with my choice
But I stuck to the script even on the empty
In the silence I heard your voice
Calling me back from the fade to black
I've never heard a better sound
You said come back, why, why don't you come back and stop all your messing around

I Blew Myself Up Over You
It wasn't fair the way you looked
Tossed your hair and sunk your hook
I had to stare, it was uncomfortable
You stole away, but I'm the crook
I climbed to the roof, pulled out the fuse
I blew myself up over you
I'll never talk to you
But it doesn't matter because I have eyes
They've seen enough to know
You'll never feel a thing
Neither will I
I was alone with the moon, despair was renewed
I blew myself up over you
Red and white like fireworks
Funny how it doesn't hurt
Now I lie in a pool because your love is so cruel
I blew myself up over you.

The king beats his retreat
Down the alleys, to the palace

I don't wanna hear about the city no more
I don't wanna know about my city without my queen, my queen
Now lets see how long it takes to announce the winners...

Guesses on how long this will take?
I guess Xmas

ish.
Besides, he probably has a ton of "super-creative uses of the URL" he has to go through.
Good luck everyone!!!
I almost had a heart attack for a few seconds there.
I'll call you when I know you're not there just to hold your voice in my hand
So, umm, yeah. Presumably, he's going to include my vid too. That's *really* exciting.
That's pretty fucking awesome he's including your vid!!
Well he's putting up ALL of the cool shit we did, isn't he? I don't know that mine would be special.
Oh... Yeah, I read that part, but didn't think he was gonna put up everything. I wonder what others made that we haven't seen.
And to be a complete dork, I included my pic with the Liberty Bell in my SDR contest Flickr set.
I'm pretty sure my stuff is "short school bus special".
I'm just guessing that he'll put up my vid. It would make my MONTH if he liked my cover.
