Summary of my thoughts (believe it or not it was really hard to sort this out, and THIS is the condensed version!): --> My top-loved lyrics (in disorder): 1, 6, 7, 9, 11, 12, 15, 20, 21, 24 --> Most feelings felt: 1(DLOL), 6(cries profusely, literally…), 7(smiles at poor innocent holy knights in training), 11(much sadness), 12(kind of like want to poof! things now xD), 15(smile’s while trying to imagine the scene), 18(laughs awkwardly, I feel you Storm!…snif!), 20(sad pondering), 21(smiles kind of excited, somehow~), 24 (LOL) Cool music: 3, 6, 9, 10, 20, 21, 22 (wish I could sing them in cool voice for coolest combination ever) --> Easiest to sing: 1 (lol while singing = bad combo), 2 (so much friendship in this one), 4 (can’t help picturing timon and pumba singing it), 6 (cries and can’t get the song out of head…perhaps listening and reading it like hundreds of times has something to do with it…), 8 (sponge bob square-pants…I mean Cap-tain Sun Knight!), 9 (must get manly voice to sing it ~), 10 (couldn’t get it right until I heard the singing), 11(why must it be so high pitched?!

Storyteller, very detailed, by the way I like your cool music selection (^^)
As for which ones I like more... well all songs are nice, interesting and amusing, so it's really hard choosing favorites. Maybe, perhaps 1, 6, 11, 20, 21 and 24

Wow, those are detailed thoughts, storyteller. Thanks for them! Since we had a good number of participants, we're choosing two winners. (Yay, two winners!) We're still in the middle of our decision. Stay tuned~

The results are in! We chose two winners. One through voting via polls, and one through judging via points. Some of the results were very, very close. Without further ado, here are our two winners! First up is our winner via our poll. We did two rounds of voting. First round of voting helped us narrow our songs down to 6, and then we held a finals round to select our winner from the 6 songs. The winning entry goes to... Entry 20: Black [LSK] by chestnutCongratulations! We were very impressed by how you pretty much entirely rewrote the song from scratch.
Next is our winner via the judging. We had four judges who gave points to the entries based on technique (10 pts), content (10 pts), mood/suitability (10 pts), and polish (5 pts). The winning entry earned 8, 7.5, 9, and 3.5 points, for a total of 28 points. Yes, our judges were very critical. The winning entry goes to...
Entry 11: It Can't Be Just a Dream [LSK] by Zessy
Our judges said, "It's pretty insightful into Sun's thoughts. Very haunting. It kinda hurts" and "The high-pitched tone and some atonal elements make a good setting for the suffering of the narrator. Purposely putting 'my God of Light' as the highest note of the song emphasizes the desperation for salvation."
Congratulations to our two winners, chestnut and Zessy! You'll be contacted shortly via PM.
We had some very close entries that we'd like to make special mention of, even though they don't get a prize. You get our love.
In the poll... Entry 9: Angel and Reaper [NH] by eclipsek came in second place.
The other entries that made it into the finals (in no particular order) were... Entry 6: I'm Becoming Demon King - By Grisia [LSK] by cheeto Entry 24: Blueberry Pie (Really Want a Slice) [LSK] by kandaja Entry 10: Call Me Baby - Earth Knight of the Twelve Holy Knights [LSK] by AB Entry 3: Whisper Goodbye to this Ugly World [DE] by lucathia
In the judging... Entry 6: I'm Becoming Demon King - By Grisia [LSK] by cheeto came in second place. Entry 5: The Real Holy Knights by Gossipy Temple Knight [LSK] by noname came in third place. Entry 3: Whisper Goodbye to this Ugly World [DE] by lucathia came in fourth place. Entry 23: Double Negative [Blueberry Pie] [LSK] by hazel81 came in fifth place. Entry 18: It's my nap time no more [LSK] by lalasu came in sixth place.

Thank you for all the kind comments! Congratz to Zessy as well (I would have picked you too if I were a judge) I'd also like to give mention to other entries I really liked. One was Entry 10: Call me Baby by AB (the singing was great! you should join EXO!) And I also liked Entry 19: Sylvester's Song by Ezeras since I love Female Warrior so your entry really made me smile xD Even so, I was amazed by how good all the entries were (and also surprised by how good some people's singing was!)

Congratulations to Zessy and chestnut Your entries were awesome! CherryChimchim Heehee, thanks. Actually, it was made at the last minute, I felt it was quite sloppy. If you'd like, I can tell you how I did it. ^_^ chestnut Really?! Thank you!! I always manage to cringe of embarassment when I hear my record though. >~< I caught a cold before I managed to record, so I think I got off key on some part. And I sound quite puffy. I also really liked your song, and the singing! It was really good, it gave me shivers while listening. ohmygod Great job judging! It must have been really hard with all the great entries everyone posted. On a side note, when will you guys post the singing of the staff? I'm eagerly waiting for it.

We are pleased to return with some singing from our staff! We welcome everyone else to join in on the fun too~. Entry 20: Black [LSK] [submitted by chestnut ]Staff Rendition 1Staff Rendition 2The colour of my hair is black It was turned to black, just like that I break glass when I feel like And I look at my bloody hands and think, why am I like this, why?
My hair used to be shining gold But now my heart it feels so cold As time goes by until it leaves me behind Until I forget who I once was, no
The real light in this world is darkness The one true God after all was sadness I should’ve known when Leaf had died cos of me That I’d only create even more casualties
But it’s alright, no longer will I bask in the sunlight Even if they hate me I must protect my holy knights In the prison I have shut myself in I smile thinking that I’m happy when inside I’m not, I’m really alone...
Even though I could destroy the world, even though I’m finally strong Why did I even want this strength? But everytime I think I remember The dark element consumes me And I can no longer stop myself
The color of my eyes are black Just like when I was an amnesiac Even though I have flawless white skin without using facial masks Really why aren’t I happy, why?
Today I was forced to kill Judgement forced my hand against my will But even though I know this was the right choice why do I feel even sadder than I did before?
The real light in this world is darkness The one true God after all was sadness I should’ve known when Leaf had died cause of me That I’d only create even more casualties
I don’t even know who I used to be anymore Am I the Demon King or Grisia or am I still the Sun Knight? God of Light, please tell me who I am Or have even you forsaken me?
Why can’t those guys just give up on me They smile and I think there’s hope But just as easily I destroy it When I think back to the life I had I remember why I left And that I can’t ever return...
One day I’ll forget my name I’ll stop playing these games eventually I’ll lose control One day I will go insane I don’t care how much I’m in pain As long as it’s not someone else
Tell me Judgement, why are you making that sad face? Black. All I’m doing is my duty as Sun Knight (I’m still the same) No matter what happens I will protect you guys. Black. Even if I’m protecting you from myself (I’m not the same). Fade away fade away fade away fade away I’m alone I’m alone I’m alone but it’s ok Entry 11: It can't be just a dream [LSK] [submitted by Zessy ]Staff Rendition 1Staff Rendition 2Staff Rendition 3Forlorn and so lonely, i‘ve had to save all. I left behind all that I had ever longed for. Screams of my holy knights, i can hear thee. A freezing chill- A sound that still will forever haunt me.
So I have made it here Running through all the fear. The sadness in my heart retains the pain. And if I fall, I've sured That I can not return. None of their hope remains.
So i am standing here. Oh pain please disappear. My God of Light, hear out my prayer. And now I wonder, was this choise the right one?
Tears falling quietly, I barely feel. A twisted grin, broken within. Am I going crazy?
Yes I am standing here Bearing this pain, and fear. wearing the wicked smile upon my face. And if I scream your names It is returned as blames I beg, forget me please.
Yes I have made it here. Please pain just disappear. My God of Light, hear out my prayer.
And now I wonder, is this only a dream? (And now I wonder, is this only a dream?) The staff also enjoyed Entry 09 a lot, so several sang Entry 09 as well. Entry 09: Angel and Reaper [EH/NH] [submitted by eclipsek ]Staff Rendition 1Staff Rendition 2Staff Rendition 3This angel's darkest past, Gave him strength to shield his light. You'll become the reaper of the night, Flying freely through the sky.
Shown a world of endless hate, an imprisoned life you've gained. Taken from the one who loved you, several years of pain.
Through your pain your, tears reflected, but soon you'll come to see, this pain brought you wings of steel, and strength, so you'll break free.
Freed from your chains at last, though you had an awful past, you refused to hate, and changed your fate let the past stay in the past.
Do what no others would, take the path less travelled by Though against the law, forced to make the call, like the reaper, take some lives.
Child with two identities, Will you ever find a place? Neither side would just accept you, Now you find it strange.
Met the one who, Didn’t shun you, Now often, thoughts you have, Are that “It’s okay as long you will not be sad.”
Raise your heads up and believe All as one and you’ll all see It’s your city
Thrown into endless fights, you still try to do what’s right. Look above those, who make you sad, save both sides that often clash.
Be who you choose to be, paint your world both white and black Whether night or day, what I want to say, is that both can be your path.

Black was difficult for us to sing, but the staff that took on the challenge did a good job. Hope you aren't too disappointed at having only two covers, chestnut.

Wow, the covers are all amazing! Thank you to the staff for singing the lyrics I wrote. I know it was hard so I'm really happy just hearing it attempted and the two staff did a fantastic job ^^

Wonder if people can tell who's who based on the voice clips from the April Fools' audiobook. But then again... Not everyone who sang a song did the audiobook, and almost everyone sounds different singing than talking.
