What song won Guitar Hero's 'Be a Guitar Hero' contest?

“Cheat on the Church” won Guitar Hero’s “Be a Guitar Hero” contest. The song was performed by Graveyard BBQ and appeared in the original game as a bonus track.

The contest gave bands an opportunity to submit music for consideration in Guitar Hero. That made the song different from the game’s main licensed setlist, which was built largely around recognizable rock songs, many represented by cover versions. “Cheat on the Church” instead became one of the original master recordings in the bonus-song section.

The other choices are also bonus tracks from the first Guitar Hero, which explains the potential confusion. “Decontrol” is by Drist, “Even Rats” is by The Slip, and “Fire It Up” is by Black Label Society. They were included in the same bonus-song pool, but none is identified as the contest winner. Later Guitar Hero games held or referenced other contests, so answers connected with sequels should not be substituted for the original game’s winner.
