Warning: the following results contain spoilers (obviously)! If you wish to solve the contest puzzle yourself, please do so before reading on!
I received 56 entries, 53 of which contained the correct answer, either the URL http://www.allmusic.com/song/t1819634 or the song title Subdivisions (by the band Rush). I accepted answers like "1819634", "Subdivisons", and "Subdivided", as well, because I'm nice; however, the answers "All American Boy" [1819234], "At the Dawn of Humanity" [1810634], and "Echo" [1819654] did not conform, and were cast out.
This was quite easily my most spontaneous contest yet on my blog, as there was probably at most a 7-hour gap between conceiving the contest idea and posting it. The inspiration came when I heard the song on the radio during a car ride to church on Wednesday, April 27. I thought, "Huh, interesting. That voice sounds like the guy from Rush. And there are weird time signatures in it, too." I managed to make out enough lyrics to perform a Google search on my iPhone, and discovered what song it was. "Oh, wow, this song is good. I somehow need to create a contest about it." However, I instantly recognized that making a puzzle where the song's title was revealed as one solved it would make it too tempting and too easy to fill in the blanks before finishing the puzzle. When I realized that I could use an AllMusic URL instead, I set off to figure out how to make a puzzle leading to that URL. The rest is history. :)

On a completely unrelated note, look who else wished me a happy birthday!
