First and foremost, thank you thank you thank you to all of you who took a risk, took your time and took the stage to make imaginative and seriously impressive covers of the songs from Van Lear Rose. We have had a lot of fun watching each of your original takes on these songs that we've come to know and love so much. After seeing you guys pour yourselves into these covers, dare we say we love them even more now? I think so!
Without further ado, the winner is...
Melanie V.! For her thoughtful and excellently executed cover of "Trouble on the Line"! Melanie, you will be sent the production print of the photos from Vault package #24 today. Look for a shipment to arrive to you shortly! As promised, Melanie's video is posted below for all to check out --
Great job, Melanie. We also would be remiss to ignore these honorable mentions:
Federico G. of Italy for his cover of "This Old House"
Mouhammed B. for his live public performance cover of "Miss Being Mrs."
Kate P. for her whistling solo cover of "Miss Being Mrs."
To see these honorable mentions and more, you can search "Third Man Vault Contest" on YouTube with the tags "Loretta Lynn" and "Van Lear Rose." Thanks again y'all! Expect to see updates about your shipments soon soon.
Thank you Mouhammed!

Sounds good, thanks @BATMACAMBA!!
Enjoyed watching these performances. Well done, everyone. Congratulations, Melanie!
Congratulations!!!
I’m going to go ahead and accept the title of Sore Loser of The Year, but what is the point in even having rules?
I had fun, I put myself out there, but we were all double-checking each other to make sure no one got disqualified on a technicality, and then those rules were thrown out the window.
It’s disheartening, to be honest, and if I have to be the one to speak out, so be it. I’m happy for the winner. To overcome a fear and be rewarded is terrific, and that makes me happy for her.
However, I am not the only entrant feeling confused.
To be a stickler for detail and to challenge yourself only to not get the point of why you went to the trouble is saddening.
You can search under those tags, but they’re not tagged under them, as stated in the rules.
Black Bat Licorice Tri-Colors for everyone who took the time to enter! Whadda ya say Third Man????
Trying to find a couple of these on Youtube and can’t find them by their tags. Anyone have links to them?
Well done Melanie!! Congratulations from Norway or “Gratulerer” as we say here :-)
