The dance battle is getting heated, and more and more dancers are running away from the circle to get a drink. Here are the five who dropped out:

Image
[+] Ranks 10-6
[+] 10th
10th place is Woman by Kesha. This was submitted by Empress Plush and received 58 points, including two 12’s, a 10, and an 8.
[+] 9th
9th place is Dance in the Dark by Lady Gaga. This was submitted by Cicada and received 66.5 points, including two 12’s, a 10, and an 8.
[+] 8th
8th place is Shake it Out by Florence + The Machine. This was submitted by Maraoone and received 70 points, including a 12 and four 8’s.
Now it gets interesting. We actually had a threeway tie for 5th place. As per custom, tiebreakers were determined by which songs got the most 12s, then the most 10s, then the most 8s. Ranks 5-7 all received the same number of points, and here are their ultimate places:
[+] 7th
7th place is Bad Girls by M.I.A.. This was submitted by Ruggahissy and received 72 points, including a 12 and an 8.
[+] 6th
6th place is Los Ageless by St. Vincent. This was submitted by your host, Laurels and received 72 points, including a 12 and three 8’s.
And here are the final five:
[+] Final Five

Telephones

And it has come to this. The final two ladies who have made the most of their night out and showed that they didn’t need a man to have a good time as long as they had good friends, good music, and good liquor.

One on side, we have Telephones by Mo Kinney, submitted by Shiola.

On the other, we have True Trans Soul Rebel by Against Me!, submitted by Ares.

But as the DJ’s record stops spinning, it is clear that only one has emerged victorious. And who is it?

The winner, of the 21st SOTF Song Contest: Girl’s Night, is….

True Trans Soul Rebel by Against Me!! It received 95 points, including a 12, four 10’s, and a public 10.


Telephones by Mo Kinney is the runner up, with 82.5 points, including a 12, a 10, and an 8.

Thanks for coming out to the club. As the new girl’s night champion, Ares is free to host the next iteration of the song contest. If they do not, they are free to pass it to Shiola and then down the rankings until someone agrees.

Thanks for a great night! See you next contest!
