Here's me own rendition of the bombastically delicious Death from Above. If'n you like what's you hear, do check out my most recent EP at www.myspace.com/thechangemusic Good luck to all of the competitors!
PS - My track "Friends" on the MySpace page features good ole JC on drums. Seriously.....
... but this wouldn't be identified a "pumpkins" song from the sounds of it. I'm not sure what the judges are going for - you obviously worked hard on this - but I don't feel the "pumpkins" spirit in it.
I think there is some confusion. While Murder and I organized this contest, it is all SP fans (meaning you ladies and gentleman) that will be voting on what they believe it is the best cover song. The voting stage will commence on February 14th to give everyone a chance to thoughtfully listen to and absorb all the covers have been submitted. We will be giving a week for people to vote until February 21st.
I hope that helps. Given that we wanted lots of fan participation with this contest, we thought we would open up the voting to everyone. Plus, if any given band/musician wins the best song, the other 23 won't be trying to chew us out personally . haha
Hello everyone. There have been several complaints about the voting system. And after further review, some flaws were identified. My colleague, the webmaster for ThePumpkins.net, Jay (MurderMcMurderson) has installed some new security measures to help ensure more fair voting. And to help things along, we are starting fresh, so the voting is as fair was we can get it from the start.
Please recast your vote if have not already done so. Before you vote, please thoughtfully listen to all the Zeitgeist covers, and choose what you feel is the best cover. In all honesty, this contest should be an indication of how many feel a given cover is the best cover, not who is the most popular band, artist, or person.
If you have submitted something for the contest, please encourage your fans to check out all the covers before making a decision. You are welcome to mention that you have a cover up for the contest, but I am imploring you not to blatantly tell people to go vote for your cover.
I know we cannot control what people to tell their fans on myspace or anywhere else, but I am asking you to do a favor to everyone involved, and be as fair and honest as possible. In the scheme of things, I would hope that people would get more enjoyment from winning fairly, knowing what people actually think of their cover, rather than distorting the outcome to win a few CDs and vinyls.
