I thought Jason’s song was more interesting. It would make more sense in a movie……I did like the Rifftones other sonegs, but this one seemed too silly for me this time. I can’t find the link to vote though!!! This website needs a better system darnit! My vote goes to Jason, whenever I can cast it!

See, wasn’t that fun? Nothing snooty there!

(I assume it was Mike or Bill who set Kevin’s hair on fire. One too many puns in the latest rifftrax, no doubt)

I expected more from the Rifftones. Oh well, maybe next competition. When is that going to be, anyway?

Jason’s song wins. A bit too repetitive, but there’s hardly any comparison. Great job!

I hope all top contenders come back to du the Fu again!

“(Turn on Your) Heartlight” was Neil Diamond, who would probably be quite surprised that he was confused with Frank Sinatra! I will guess that it might be the biggest hit he had in the mid-1980’s.

Hopefully people can continue to have fun with this contest. Remember, you can’t spell “Fun” without “Fu”!

Ok-Jason, I agree-no negativity. Rifftones, I so totally agree with you too- my God, you are, like, amazing, (I think you ROCK!) geeksome Gods! Perfect! Still, with this last challenge I am thinking that the humor MUST be present but (in my cheap and humble estimation) the cheese factor needs to be subtle and almost forgettable. It needs transcend day jobs, orthopedic shoes, our love of white bread and our inability to properly execute a traditional box step. We need to be able to sway in place and feel everything else dissappear as the credits roll. And it needs to still walk the line of funny. I’m sorry. That’s just how I see it. I don’t want overt cheese, I prefer the kind of cheese I can snidely make fun of later and still hope that there are more meanings than just one in the end…

I have to say Jason’s is a very well made song, but personally between goofy and serious, I can’t help but vote for the goofy. It is just my nature.

Chin up Jason… as always I think your song’s great.

[…] really, it’s quite unfair to pit Jason against three gods of geekdom. Still, you can vote here, and while you’re at it, you can download The Rifftones’ previous songs, […]

Sorry Rifftones you just missed it entirely. Couldn’t even stand to listen to the whole thing…it was so
“Turn (on?) Your Heart Light” remember that? Was that Sinatra? Neverending like a big wheel of government cheese. Honestly. Jason on the other hand nailed it. It stood well alone too. Can I vote again?

I absolutely appreciate all the support, but lets try to keep things positive!
It’s only a silly internet contest after all!

Whats up with the voting? Lots of people I know said they couldn’t find the link to vote. They saw the score, and couldn’t believe Jason wasn,t winning. The Riftones song is just silly and doesen’t sound anything like a theme from a movie. I thought that was the guide line. WHATS Up!!!

Jason, excellent on all accounts. You have a talent, and definitely the techniques. Hands down winner on this one.

I felt the Riftone’s track was…for lack of a better word..LAME. The music was good, (I liked the sax licks) but I don’t remember any one in the film actually love’n the shark, and I felt some of the lyrics were just abit snooty.
I thought Jason’s song did a great job of capturing the essence of what the main character in “Close Encounters” felt before finally boarding the alien ship at the end of the movie. The lyrics were very thoughtful and the music was tastefully orchestrated.
