Liking contestant 1 over 2 is really a matter of the mood I'm in this morning, I think because I really like them both. That being said, my vote is going to <b>The Main Ingredient</b>.

I think it was on some tape that I had to listen to over and over and over again (background music at work). So, I'll go with the 2nd as the 1st was what I heard over and over and over again.<br /><br />Liz A. from <a href="http://lawsofgravity.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Laws of Gravity</a>Liz A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16531953467834426316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1917749460140880592.post-77350192748622456722015-04-01T16:46:27.801-07:002015-04-01T16:46:27.801-07:00Hey Mike,

The original brought back sweet memories and it was nice hearing it again.<br /><br />I've always been an Aaron Neville fan--he has such a beautiful voice. He doesn't change the song up too much more than other than punch it up, add some very nice instrumental back-ground, and take the vocals a step up to a higher level.<br /><br />For me it's definitely Aaron's version.<br /><br />Arlee Bird<br />A to Z Challenge Co-host<br /><a href="http://tossingitout.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Tossing It Out</a>Arlee Birdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11663942782929929334noreply@blogger.com
