DUNGEON HUSTLE seems to have edged into a clear lead. RAVENS and SECRETS currently look like the only two with a chance of catching up. I'm surprised at the low turnout for JASON - I thought that one was quite good.
more opinion, wrapped in Saran Wrap to prevent spoilage:

For me, Jason was doing well until I got to the Hustle. the Hustle was a better sung rock song, though I liked what Jason was attempting better.
Jason had a good rock/metal foundation, but the vocals were buried by the music, and there were a few pitchy or weak spots.
Jason was certainly better than some of last week's vocalizations. It definitely reached for D&D Rock Song that I was hoping to hear last week.
Last week's offering of quavering nerd vox was why Low Stat was such a standout for its quality singing. If Jason was in last week's batch, I may have voted for it.
The Orc song had some fun lyrics, but something went wrong in the engineering and the vocals were all but non-existant. I know it's extra work for EN World, but the Orc guy would have benefitted from a "was this intentional, we can't really hear the vocals" correspondence. Tt might have been worth a few minutes in Garage Band (or other app) to raise the levels and make a new MP3 and send it back to EN World.
I have no doubt some folks are looking past the singing quality. Pretty much all the songs have clever lyrics. So to me, the differentiating factor is the music and singing. From that, pretty much all songs are ruled by the the vocals to most people. There are few songs favored by people where everybody likes it but acknowledges "the singing sucks, but we love it anyway"
By no means in my critique, would I say I could do better. Heck, I failed to produce a song. I do not have a good singing voice, but I can discern what I look for in a good singer.
