Entry #1: "Deadly Friend" by Victor Lams
Victor says his song is "about a girl who is beaten to death by her father, re-animated by her geeky boyfriend, and then (after her zombified corpse kills her dad) finally stuffed inside a robot body (predictably comic antics ensue)."

This is the elusive live version of "Zombie Blues," apparently recorded by Tim Ryan at PenguiCon 2006.

The songwriter is open to comments regarding the appropriate level of triangle use for the song.
Entry #5: "PLOT" by The Exhibits
