Changes in musical inspirations for my Battle of the Bands are not very subtle. Manic changes from one spectrum to the other can happen pretty quickly and often. How can I go from John Hiatt to Black Sabbath? Well here it goes.
The song is "Changes" by Black Sabbath
Contender Two: Charles Bradley

I used to listen to a lot of Black Sabbath. I still like some of their stuff. I can't recall ever having heard this song before. Doesn't sound like any Black Sabbath I'd heard before. I like it.
The Bradley version is heartfelt and so cool. However I like that Fleetwood Mac sound of The Cardigans. This sounds like music I would have listened to back in the seventies.
A vote for The Cardigans.

I'll always remember this as the song that Ozzy and Kelly sang together. My vote is for Charles Bradley.

I wasn't familiar with this song, but I thought The Cardigans did it pretty nicely. Then I went to play CHARLES BRADLEY's version and the first thing I heard was an electric organ note. SOLD! And then it kept on being good and soulful so... 2 points for Charles Barkley-- er... I mean, BRADLEY.

When I listen to these tunes, I lean towards the ones where the singer/group really brings the EMOTION and feeling to the delivery. The Cardigans are great; can't slight them at all. They probably would have scored my vote if it wasn't for Charles Bradley's soulful rendition. Loved that!!

I like Charles Bradley's take on this. He gets my vote.
I love Charles Bradley’s version because of the blues sound and his raspy voice that fits. The Cardigans were also great and she has a strong voice but I prefer the blues style more.
Mike,
I'm not a Black Sabbath listener so I didn't have to worry about comparing the original with the cover artists. Between the two rivaling singers, I instantly took a liking to Charles Brandley and wish to give my vote to him. I liked everything better about this cover artist. :)
Wow, I LOVE the Cardigans! Love their sound. And their version of Changes is way better than Black Sabbath's, in my opinion.
I liked Charles Bradley's version but not near as much as the Cardigans. My vote definitely goes with your first contender. Thanks for the introduction!
