Current Status
As of mid 2012, Song Fight! has conducted more than 650 fights and is host to more than 9500 entries.
"Cover art" is also accepted for each fight, though it is not a separate "art fight" in that no voting process occurs. The submission of fight art is considered more of a service than a competition. Fight art is a reference to the earliest days of Song Fight!, when Explodingdog artist Sam Brown produced much of the artwork for each week's fight. There is also an archive of all submitted artwork.
While Song Fight! remains the center of the community, peripheral sites have sprung up within the Song Fight! "network", perhaps most notably somesongs.org, a site that connects users to amateur recording artists' original works while maintaining a rating and comment system for the benefit of both parties. somesongs.org was created and originally administered by Jeff Fal of Add, another prolific Song Fight! contributor. Additionally, there have been a number of so-called "side fights," where members of the community record songs on a theme or rerecord each others' music.

“The English language may hold a more disagreeable combination of words than “The doctor will see you now.” I am willing to concede something to the phrase “Have you anything to say before the current is turned on?””
—Robert Benchley (1889–1945)
“At all events, as she, Ulster, cannot have the status quo, nothing remains for her but complete union or the most extreme form of Home Rule; that is, separation from both England and Ireland.”
