SP: THE EARLY YEARS COVER SONG CONTEST-THE WINNERS
After months of promotions and voting, the fans and selection committee had spoken on March 17th, naming "Obscured" by Adrian Bunn (Best Cover Song) and "Quiet" by Prophets for Zombies (Fan Favorite Cover) as the first two winners of the contest. Now, Billy Corgan has added his voice with his selection of "Jennifer Ever" by Michael Taylor Alexander as his favorite for the 'Best New Interpretation of A Song' category!
