I always thought the lyrics were:

Mama was burning a hole in my heart
Please let me down to hold the ketchup
Eight tequilas to fill up my life
Submarine, burning hell
Can you not tell?


Granted it's no "Tentacles sold here / Old Navy sold here / Please hold my cold beer / Just like Cameron Diaz" from Luv to Me, but still, yeah :)

It makes me realize how the creative process can't be forced and that the planets have to line up just right.
Then I saw this and thought, "Nope...definitely drugs." :P

At Iron Editor, there was an excellent matchup between a Dr. Who monologue to Homura (from Madoka). I think I see it listed in the listing under Iron Editor (SSGWNBTD - Guess Who! - 4x3.mpg), but the file doesn't seem to be available as is.

I'm guessing the clip was from the middle of one of the AMV Hells or AMV Salad videos. Any one know what I'm talking about? SSGWNBTD: If you're here, please let me know :-) Thanks.

This was actually his original submission to the Otakon 2014 AMV Contest. Since it was a parody and not an actual AMV, we had to drop it from the contest, and in the 19 hours between letting him know this and the contest deadline, he cranked out the Madoka - Clarity video that you saw in the actual contest. As far as I know, it has not appeared anywhere else, and yes, it was awesome.

Isn't that what the Trailer/PARODY category is for? :P

It's what happened to me last year with Don't Lick The Icing.

There should probably be something in the rules defining the parameters of what constitutes "parody" for the purpose of the contest, although I don't see how it can deviate too much from the established definition...
