SONG CHALLENGE WINNER!

The Song Challenge:   Reality Intrudes, Let's Hope It Doesn't Bite! -- NBC's top entertainment executives confessed this past June that they had misjudged the public interest in so-called reality shows and that NBC was now committed to finding a reality show of its own for next summer or sooner.   One such show the executives talked about extensively, though they said they did not yet have a deal, is called "Chains of Love," which consists of one young woman selecting 4 men she would like to date from a pool of about 100, and then being literally chained to those four men for several weeks, discarding them one at a time until she selects one winner.  Garth Ancier, the president of NBC Entertainment, called it "a relationship show." 


15 Minutes Of Fame by Dharmabum
(Tune: Folsom Prison Blues)

Andy Warhol told me, 
I'd have 15 minutes of fame, 
But he forgot to mention, 
I'd be tied up with a chain, 

I was only searchin for love, 
I can't believe my eyes, 
Cause I gotta share my true love, 
With 3 other guys. 

The boys in the big office, 
Thought this show would sell for sure, 
But the more I hang around here, 
It smells more like cow manure, 

I was only searchin for love, 
East, West, South, and North, 
I can handle sloppy seconds, 
But not thirds and fourths. 

Now I am the sole survivor, 
The other 3 are done, 
Looks like I found my true love, 
I guess she'll be the one, 

Now we'll spend our life together, 
Just watchin our TV, 
They said they can't unchain us, 
Cause they can't find the key.
