Welcome to @simgirlandsnook’s Bad Karaoke Contest!
Since this is a new contest, we have decided to hold this contest in rounds which will consist of two weeks. Every two weeks we will start a new round.
Because the payout of our Steemit posts is one week, participants can enter once a week as originally planned. This will give you two chances to win the top prize!
Winners of the contest will receive:
• 1st Place- 50% of SBD of original post-payout
• 2nd Place- 30% of SBD of original post-payout
• 3rd Place- 20% of SBD of original post-payout
Once seven days have passed, we will divide the SBD payout of the original post between the winners. Please allow up to two days for the transfer. We added the reminder posts to the round one prize which totaled 2.54 SBD!!!
Currently, we are in the middle of Round Two of the Bad Karaoke Contest.

Third Place: @horizonte66 with “Yesterday”
Total Judges Score: 20
Total upvotes: 3
Total Score: 23
Judges’ Comments: This performance blew us away and gave us chills. The emotion in @horizontee’s voice and hand gestures pulled us into the song, which is a very difficult song to sing. You can see that he has a passion for this song. This sweet man is the epitome of Bad Karaoke. We were moved by his performance and the originality of the song selection.
Prize -20% = 0.508 SBD
Second Place: @fishyculture and @longsilver
Total Judges Score: 17
Total upvotes: 7
Total Score: 24
Judges’ Comments: We loved the duet performance. @fishyculture, and @longsilver seem to really have fun while singing. Neither of us has ever heard the song, and the lyrics amused us along with the very touching performance. The song was sung well, and they were both just adorable.
Prize -30% = 0.762 SBD
First Place: @psionic-tremors
Total Judges Score: 20
Total upvotes: 10
Total Score: 30- Perfect score!!!
Judges’ Comments: This song was a wonderful choice and a song we had never heard before either. The song was very upbeat and seemed hard to sing, but @psionic-tremors sung it as if she had written the lyrics herself! She totally blew us away with this amazing performance. We also loved that she included the original video along with her singing so that we could see she was singing right along with the music. This entry made it to the first place byways of votes as she and @horizonte66 were tied with the judges voting. So cool that @psionic-tremors are our first Bad Karaoke winner placing with a perfect score of 30!!! Way to go! We love it!
Prize -50% = 1.27 SBD
The other entries Scores
@article61
Total Score of 19
Judges’ Comments: @article61 put his whole heart into this performance and gave us both a hearty laugh. We loved the pencil effect of the video to begin, then the singing was great, and the accent was the cherry topping the cake. He clearly had fun while singing the song, which is what this contest is all about!
@inthenow
Total Score of 18
Judge’s Comments: @inthenow picked a wonderful song to sing. The performance was great as we see only his head bobbing and the purple curtains blowing in the background; adding dramatic effect. He hits the high notes and then brings it back down low for the perfect ending.
@c0ff33a
Total Score of 17
Judge’s Comments: We loved the passion @c0ff33a gives us by the end of the song. It is then that he finally lets loose and starts to belt out the lyrics. Driving while singing, and then showing the road as he travels was very original, as was the song choice. It was cool to see the scenery while he was driving. Our first traveling Bad Karaoke entry and it was very cool.
Congratulations to the winners!!! As you can see, it was a very close contest, and the total number of comment upvotes votes on all the posts for round one was the foremost factors in deciding the winner! We loved seeing everyone’s videos and, in our eyes, you are all Bad Karaoke champions!!!
