ATLANTA, Aug. 19 /PRNewswire/ -- Church's Chicken is calling for all video songwriter wannabes to create a song, grab a camera and sing about its new Spicier Spicy Chicken.  All entrants will compete for a chance to win the grand prize of $3,000 and a year's supply of Church's Chicken.

Customer demand for Spicier Spicy Chicken resulted in the new product making its debut in all Church's Chicken restaurants across the country two weeks ago.

The inspiration for the contest is Jedidiah Brown, the YouTube phenomenon who made a home video and sang a song in his own words about Church's Chicken.  His video has had close to a million views since it was posted last May.  "All of us at Church's loved Jedidiah's video so much that we enlisted him to write another one and make a video that we could use as an example for interested video song creators who are thinking about entering Church's Spicier Spicy Chicken Song Contest," said Bonnie Warschauer, Church's Vice President of Communications.  "Jedidiah is a talented young man and loyal fan of our Original chicken and now our new Spicier Spicy Chicken.  His new video is going to make a whole lot of people hungry for our chicken and the desire to not only watch his video over and over again, but create one of their own."

If the success of Jedidiah's video on YouTube is any indication, all those who enter Church's video song contest can anticipate their video being seen by tens of thousands of viewers.  And that's an added reward Church's Chicken is pleased to be able to provide.

Additional prizes include $1,500 for second place and $500 for the video song coming in at third place. The first two hundred participants who submit an eligible video song will receive a coupon for a free two-piece Church's Spicier Spicy Chicken & Biscuit.

The contest is easy to enter and promises to be fun and competitive for all:
