Results Battle # 2 Deep River Woman

















First off... a special thank you to the HOST of this musical blog hop!


What happened? Who won?

Lionel recorded this original in 1987 with Alabama. Twenty-five years later, in 2012, Lionel recorded it with Little Big Town! I had a lot of fun with this battle. Of course, either way, Lionel is the big winner. For a few days the two were tied at four apiece. Then it seems the "lightness" of the second, and most recent recording moved ahead quickly! And I mean quickly and over! My vote went to Lionel with Alabama but it was a "done deal,' as they say. 

Which band shares the praise for the day?

Lionel Richie with Little Big Town @ 8 votes
Lionel Richie with Alabama @ 6 votes

CONGRATULATIONS  LITTLE BIG TOWN! 

Thank you to everyone who stopped by, voted, and left a comment!

  2. Little Big Town didn't win by too big of a margin, did they? That was my choice! Looking forward to next time around.

    1. Hi Alex - this what I had down for you, but if you'd like to change your vote - it's no problem:

      Lionel versus Lionel - tough one. But as I am not country music fan, my vote goes to the version with Alabama. The other one was too twangy."

      Either way, Little Big Town still takes it(smile).

  10. Yes you were, Lee, and thank you so much. They were tied 2 days, I think, then 4 more for LBT, then 2 last votes for Alabama. I almost figured it was lost when it stayed tied... big surprise.
