Gentle Readers . . . and Maxwell,
The song was Faith. The contenders were George Michael and Limp Dicksit.
I thought it would be a shut-out, but the pretty much hated Wimp Bisquick managed to get a few votes.
George Michael 18
Limp Bizkit 3
Jeffrey Scott asked in his comment if I'd heard Weird Al's version of Faith. I hadn't, and sadly, I couldn't find it. But I did find Marcus J. Freed, so let's ask him to sing us out.
Infinities of love,

My motto as an editor: Authors are the authority on their work. I'm a full-service editor. For a reasonable fee, I'm your writing coach from the first suggested revision to the correction of the final typo.
It's his best song and I'm glad he won.
ReplyDeleteI did some additional research and I see where I went wrong. Weird Al only partly parodied the song in a medley he did called UHF. In it he actually mimics many different artists. If you don't mind the link, it can be found here:

I found it and enjoyed it. Thanks! Weird Al is a hoot.
DeleteI will never attempt to predict voting ever again or underestimate even the most heinous of choices.
ReplyDeleteThat was a decisive outcome and makes perfect sense to me.
