Hello all! Welcome to this edition of the M4BCC Song Contest Results show on our brand new night! I know you're anxious to find out where our remaining contestants are ranked this week. So, let's get to the results! We're going to do things a little differently this time around, so bear with me.
I'll first ask Kworb to join me on stage. Kworb, the song you submitted was Song #1, "All The Way/4U" by Poets Of The Fall. Before I reveal whether you're safe or in the Bottom 3, I'm going to ask you to stand here nearest to me on the right-hand side of the stage.
Next, I'll ask Bryan to join me. Bryan's song was Song #5, "The New Generation" by Robin Thicke. Bryan, I'd like for you to stand on the far side of the stage.
Drag, come on up! You submitted Song #8, "Follow You Down" by Zedd. I'd like for you to stand at center stage.
So... I have three people here on stage with me, standing at three different positions on the stage. Now, let's make things a little more interesting. Let me have Adam come up. Adam, you submitted Song #3, "Hit It" by American Authors. I'd like for you to go stand next to Drag.
Mikeespinho, will you please join me on stage? Your song submission this week was Song #10, "Heldenzeit" by Wir Sind Helden. If you don't mind, could you please join Bryan down on the far end of the stage?
Next, let me have Joel come on up here! Joel submitted Song #7, "Don't Wanna Know" by Cheyenne Jackson. Joel, buddy... We've had you dress up as Mariah Carey. I hope you aren't nervous about what we're going to have you do next... *Joel looks nervous* What we're going to have you do right now is go join Kworb right over here! Thanks!
Ari, it's your turn! Come and join me on stage! It's funny, because you and I were listening to music together backstage before the show. You were so excited to have me hear this rare track by Tori Amos, but I couldn't concentrate on listening to it because we got into a huge argument about how to pronounce her name. I always pronounce it "Tore Eye." Anyway, it was a huge fiasco backstage earlier and I now realize the error of my ways. And I will be certain not to bring up the fact that it annoys me that she uses "Lite" instead of "Light" in the title of "Caught A Lite Sneeze." But anyway... What were we talking about? Oh right! Sorry. I got sidetracked. Ari, your song was Song #6, "Black Ships Ate The Sky" by Current 93. I'd like to ask you to join Bryan and Mikeespinho on the far side of the stage.
Let's see. Who do I want to bring up now? Oh, what the hell?! David J, come on up here! David, your song was Song #4, "I Can't Wait" by Private. I think I'll have you stand over with Kworb and Joel.
And Jessica... Jessica, Jessica, Jessica. Where do I even begin? I guess it makes sense to reveal which song you submitted. You gave us Song #2 this week, "Until U Love U" by Nicole Scherzinger, who is apparently fond of the letter "U." Jessica, I'd like to have you go stand over with Adam and Drag, please! *Jessica happily skips across the stage and bear hugs Adam & Drag at the same time, saying, "Yay! I'm standing here with my brothas...my boys!" Bryan pipes up from his part of the stage. "Hey! I thought *I* was your brotha!" Then David J and Joel both say, "Me too! What about me?!" Jessica looks nervous and quickly replies, "I love you ALL! You're ALL my boys!"* Okay, okay... Well, before we decide to open a brothel called 'Miss JessieLou's House On The Hill,' we have to remember we still have results to reveal, here people!
I've got three groups here on the stage. One group with David J, Joel, and Kworb. Another group with Adam, Drag, and Jessica. And a third group with Ari, Bryan, and Mikeespinho. AND, I'm left standing here with Matt. Matt, you submitted Song #9, "Fag Hag" by Lily Allen. Now, here's where things get REALLY interesting... Matt, I've separated your co-contestants into three groups. One group represents the Top 3 in this week's rankings. Another group represents the Bottom 3. And the third group represents the contestants who are in the middle of the rankings this week. I can now reveal to you and you alone that you are safe this week and moving on to the next round. In fact, I'll reveal even more to you, Matt. You are in the middle of the pack this week. What I want you to do is go stand with the group of three people who YOU think are also in the middle of the rankings this week...and thus are ALSO safe.
*Matt appears very nervous. He walks slowly across the stage, spending time standing in front of each group. This goes on for a couple minutes. Finally, he walks between Bryan's group and Adam's group and sits down on the stage midway between the two groups* Awwww...! You aren't going to pick a group. Isn't that sweet?! Well, get over it! What does this look like...American Idol? "Cute" might work there. But here at the M4BCC Song Contest, we go for cold, hard facts! Now, Matt... Pick a group or I'm eliminating you right on the spot and everyone else is safe this week! *Ari dives on the floor, grabs Matt's ankles to keep him from moving, and says, "Look, Jason! He's not moving! Eliminate him! Eliminate him!"* Okay, Ari. Okay... *I help him off of the floor and back to his group* There you go! All righty, then...! Matt, have you decided what group you'll join? *Matt says, "Uh... I guess so." After appearing very nervous and hesitant, he goes and stands with Adam, Drag, and Jessica*
Hmmm... Interesting choice, Matt. I can now reveal that you have chosen...............................wisely. Adam, Drag, and Jessica joined you in the middle part of the rankings for this week of the Song Contest. All four of you are safe and moving on to the next week! You may all go and sit down.
That leaves just two groups of three people up here. One group is the Top 3 in this week's rankings. The other group is the Bottom 3. So which group is which? We have some mixed signals here... On one hand, David J has never been in the Bottom 3 before, while Kworb and Joel have. In the other group, Ari's been in the Bottom 3 before, while Bryan and Mikespinho have not. This isn't clear-cut at all. Either one of these groups could be the Bottom 3. I won't keep you in suspense any longer. The group that consists of the Bottom 3 this week, meaning they'll all be entering the Elimination Round to try and stay in the Song Contest is................................................................................................................................................................................*cough*.................................................................................................................................Ari, Bryan, and Mikespinho. I'm sorry to tell you that you're in the Bottom 3 this week. But on the bright side, David, Joel, and Kworb, the three of you are safe and moving on to the next round. Congratulations! And David, as an added "fyi" for you, your song was ranked the highest in total points this week.
Before we begin the Elimination Round, I want to ask all of you - as I did last week - to submit your songs for next week to me...even Ari, Bryan, and Mikeespinho. The three of you will also need to submit new Elimination songs, since the one you've already submitted will now be used. The rest of you ONLY have to submit your next choice for your competition song to me. Whoever gets knocked out during the Elimination Round will obviously not have their song continue on to Round 6. Your song submissions are due by 11:59pm North American Eastern Time on Saturday, November 23. There will be no extensions granted. If you don't submit your song to me by the deadline, you'll be eliminated from the Song Contest.
Now, here are the three songs submitted for this week's Elimination Round:
Song 1: www.youtube.com/watch?v=7XiJpB_BYbU
Song 2: www.youtube.com/watch?v=ciny8tIshVA
Song 3: www.youtube.com/watch?v=bH_Y4lBo1sU
Here is a recap of the Elimination Round rules:
- Please vote for the TWO songs you like the best.
- As participants in this week's Elimination Round, Ari, Bryan, and Mikeespinho will not be permitted to vote. If they do vote, they will have 3 votes deducted from their song's total votes.
- As with the main rounds of the Song Contest, no one is allowed to reveal the identities of the songs or who submitted each song.
- At the end of voting 11:59pm North American Eastern Time on Saturday, November 23, the two participants whose songs have the most votes will move on to Round 6. The participant with the least amount of votes will be eliminated.
- The songs for Round 6 of the M4BCC Song Contest will be posted at the end of the Elimination Round.
As always, if you have any questions, feel free to post them here or PM me.
Good luck to our 3 participants this week!
