It’s DH’s Friday off. Normally, this my slot to dish out some giggles to round out the work week with my Friday Sillies edition. It also happens to be the first day of a new month which means it’s time another BoTB round. I’ll do my best to give you some laughs and mewsic in the same post.
If we’re lucky to celebrate another birthday then we’re privileged to say we’re a step closer to getting old. Not that I’ll ever say that nasty three letter word but you get what I’m saying. Anywho, I’m finding inspirations from family members for my battle songs. In a couple of days, my brother-in-law, DH’s middle brother turns another year older. I went back in time to 1951 the year of BIL#2’s birth to learn Nat King Cole charted #1 covering ‘Too Young‘ where it stayed on top of the charts for five weeks. Since this song’s release, there have been more than 100 covers recorded. I really liked Jerry Lee Lewis version and had planned to use it in today’s battle until I found two popular singers from my youth. These contenders are definitely too young and I felt they would make great rivals in today’s showdown. Please listen and tell me which artist gets your vote!
Contestant #1 Donny Osmond
Contestant #2 Michael Jackson
**Voting Period Ends 12pm EST Feb. 7th**
