I wasn’t sure how I wanted to go with today’s showdown. What I wanted was to use another Darlene Love song with two cover artists but I couldn’t find anything. Snooping around for possibilities I came across All Alone On Christmas from the 1992 blockbuster film, Home Alone 2: Lost in New York City.
What I found interesting about Darlene’s song is the author. Do you care to guess who penned the lyrics? Yep, that’s right Steven Van Zandt! It wasn’t until we watched the Netflix TV series Lilyhammer that I learned he is or was one of Bruce Springsteen’s guitarists. He’s a multi-talented fellow – mewsician, producer, actor, and singer. Here’s Little Steven & The Disciple of Soul singing, Merry Christmas (I Don’t Want To Fight Tonight)!
You’ll find more awesome battles underway at some of these blog listed below and if you’d like to be included in the fun, then contact Stephen requesting to be added to the list.
