"Mime In Your Life" by Matthias" a parody of "Time Of Your Life" by Green Day
This is the tragic love story of how man meets mime, man has sex with mime, man marries mime, mime gets run over with a car. Please drive carefully, because you never know, that mime that you just ran over might be somebody's wife. (Performed by Below Average Dave)

Idea: 7.5 - Mime themes are not unique, but it's a solid idea.
Lyrics/humor: 6 - Hard to understand some of the words and IMHO the original is a bit too short to get in all that's needed.
Singing: 6 - Smooth, perhaps too much so. Trailing off on many of the last words made it hard to understand the lyrics.
Backing track: 6 - It's a MIDI, but a good one.
Production/mixing: 7 - Nothing good or bad there - solid.
Sound effects/bites: n/a
Video: 9.5 - Extremely well done, funny, better than 90% of the videos on MTV.
Overall: * - Since this performance is done by two people it's hard to assign an overall score. The video is markedly better than the song. Sorry.

(POTM) *The Video is awesome* As I said before. . .the only thing I can say on the performance is, that has to be like the best recording I've ever done with a midi. . .eventually I'll probably do a non-midi for this, but even so it sounds pretty good. I was a bit smooth, being raspy like Billie Joe is hard when you naturally sing smooth--something I'll make sure to fix when I re-record this for you Matthias
D'oh! I started by typing "The video is awesome", then just as I was about to post, I scanned what Dave said... I'll agree with Jack, too, about the singing, but I think I caught pretty much all the words. But the video is seriously cool.
POTM- The video is awe- oh wait - really freaking sweet. Really funny lyrics, too. The singing isn't quite right for the song, but very good overall.
The video is...really, really, really full of awe! I enjoyed this one as well, a very solid effort.
