Battle of the Bands: Willin'

Last week  I went to the sold out Miranda Lambert concert and for the first song of her encore she covered Little Feat's Willin.' I was surprised to see her cover Little Feat! Can never get enough Little Feet. Well, I am a little late to the party but it is still the 15th in my neck of the woods and I'm still Willin' so come on listen and vote.

If you don't know the routine. Here it is I pick a song and share a video with the original artist or someone who made the song famous. Then I pick two contenders to battle it out to see whose cover is best. Who decides the winner? You do when you vote in the comments.

If you like these battles. Check out the other ones going on. This site has the most up to date list of Battles.

The Song Willin' by Little Feat

The song the Eagles classic "Desperado"..

Some great winter lyrics in this song such as...

"Don't your feet get cold in the wintertime
The sky won't snow and the sun won't shine
It's hard to tell the nighttime from the day"

I love this song! Glenn Frey and Joe Walsh are probably my favorite members of the Eagles. So, I am going to indulge myself and break some rules this time around. I am going to have three contestants because one is a live version and the song is relatively short.

Contestant One: Miranda Lambert

Contestant Two: Linda Ronstadt

Contestant Three: Karen Carpenter

One tribute, three versions in honor of Glenn Frey. I choose three females because the song originally done by the Eagles had the male vocals already. Vote for the version you like best in the comments. I will be back soon with the results. Please visit the other participants as well.
