Anyway his song "Tulsa Time"
Contestant Two: Eric Clapton
Wrapping up this post on my phone. Keeping it simple. Vote for either Eric or Reba in the comments. I will count up the votes and pick a winner soon.
This blog spot is the home to my ramblings. I am a free lance writer. Most of my work goes on Associated Content. Sometimes I write what is on my mind, sometimes I plug some of my writing, and sometimes a combination of the two. So, sit back read, enjoy, and we will see where it goes.

This is a song that I've heard of and heard played for years, but for some reason it's never quite registered in my memory if I'd try to recall it. Then I hear it and think, "oh yeah, that's how it goes" and then I will forget it soon after hearing it.
I've heard Clapton's version before and it's good. He rocks it.
In the final analysis I'm going to cast my vote for Reba. I just prefer her vocals and the tempo better. Clapton is too frantic--too fifties rock and roll.
I vote for Reba.

You fooled me, MIKE! I predicted ahead of time that you'd use a Tom Petty song to mark his recent passing.
But this is a great song with excellent contestants.
More times than not, I prefer male vocalists, but in this case, REBA's guttural touches and high energy win me over Slowhand. One vote for that Country firecracker from me.

I honestly thought I would be giving my vote to Reba. After listening to both versions, I definitely am more drawn to the Eric Clapton version. Reba's version seems to be just a bit slower, and Clapton's rocks! My vote: Eric Clapton
I fooled myself and actually picked this one in advanced and had it ready to go since September.
Eric Clapton by a long shot.
Mike,
Judging by the two contenders I figured I'd vote for Clapton but wound up liking Reba better. Great battle! Thanks for joining the 4M gals this morning on the dance floor. Have a great week, my friend!
I vote for Reba because she brings it!
Love,
Janie
This is a great song and you picked two great contenders. I like both of them! I love how Clapton's version starts out all slow and mysterious, leaving the listener wondering what was coming and then BAM, he hits it! Great instrumentation and a real toe-tapper for sure.
Although Reba's version is a tad slower, the music still cooks and her vocals rock.
I'm kinda torn actually, but I think I'll throw my vote over to Reba for this one. But just know I could've just as easily tossed my vote to Clapton.
Will be interesting to see how this one shakes out.
Good battle Mike.

I was fully expecting to choose Eric Clapton as soon as I heard the piano but then it just started to so7nd a bit repetitive to me and, even though it’s good, it didn’t do much. I actually choose Reba even though it has a more co7ntry flair rather than a blues flair. I like her style of s8nging this song so I go with her.
I'm kind of like everyone else: I went in thinking I'd like Slowhand better but like Reba's read on this tune better than his, so I'll go with hers.
I am voting REBA on this one. Hard to believe she outrocked the rock master, Clapton, but she did. Outstanding contest!
