Battle of the Bands Result: This is the place where big names get shut out

My last three Battle of the Bands have been shut outs! Aretha Franklin forget about respect, how about a vote?


The time before The Everly Brothers got the shut out treatment. Starting my string of shut outs Julie Miller! Her husband is the one and only Buddy Miller.  I know I've had more shut outs and I am curious who else I have served a nice big slice of Humble Pie?


Maybe I do need a Doctor! Prior to this trio of shut outs the mighty Led Zeppelin and Glenn Miller Orchestra was shut out in November of 2017. Even the Boss, Bruce Springsteen was shutout in July of 2017.  D'Angelo lost in the Winter of 17. Nicola Marie added her name to the list in December 2016. The great Nina Simone was shut out in July of 2016,.

There is the complete history of shut outs here. 

I liked the guitar playing un Aretha's version and it was neat hearing the song from a female point of view.
However BB was known for that song, oh well.

Battle of the Bands: 80s Pop, Newer Covers

\

Do I do the expected Holiday song or do I spin the mystery music wheel? Well the mystery wheel wins again. Today's inspiration comes from 80s pop. I saw Taylor Dayne back in the early 90s in concert and paths crossed recently perhaps on radio airwaves or something. Anyway I hope you enjoy.

Please check out the rest of the battles, this site has the best links.

The song:Tell it to My Heart




Contestant One: Nicola Marie


Contestant Two: Lynsey Cawthra



Who did you like best? Vote in the comments tell it from your heart. I will be back with results and a new battle o December 15th!
