Áine - Here goes nothin'... I'm aiming for that All-in-One Award, and I do mean all, after reviewing the Song Challenge!s from the Past page (are parts 17 and 35 deleted on purpose?). Pronunciation guide: virtual=two syllables ("vur--chool" or "vur-tyool" or "vurch-wull") CA="see-ay" I'm using the tune found in DT, though I had thought there was another syllable in the last line before the chorus. The Song Challenge!s are numbered for easy reference but the numbers are not to be sung. Okay; I'm ready now...

There will be more — they'll never die — Song Challenge!s gone by Song Challenge!s gone by I read just a few of the award-winning songs (enough to find Challenge! part 17!) and almost nothing from the past Song Challenge! threads (I was trying to be original and not plagiarize), so I'm sorry if I've unintentionally repeated someone else's pun. I've heard "Ghost Chickens" performed, so I did borrow that pun. My apologies to mousethief; I started this just before (s)he submitted the Cheerios parody of "Ghost Riders". I guess that makes us the googolth and googol-first to skewer the poor song. SharonA
