Hello all, welcome to another Music Monday- Who did it Better??
This was started by Drew @ The Tattooed Book Geek
Last week we had the battle of “Wonderwall” between Oasis and Mike’s Flower Pops…. Well, you’ll be happy to learn that the winner was………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………..
Oasis!!!
(Surprise, Surprise!!!!)
Well, maybe a little bit tougher one this week??
Let’s see who has done “While my Guitar Gently Weeps” better!! (I LOVE THIS SONG!!!)
By the way, there are SO MANY different versions of this song that I just put up the 2 that I really think stand head to head. If there is another version you love, feel free to write your vote into the comments!!!
The Beatles (George Harrison)
VS.
Jeff Healey
So, we’ve had a write in vote that has gotten a couple of votes now, which means it’s officially in the running!! So,
Santana
CAST YOUR VOTE IN THE COMMENTS BELOW, AND TUNE IN NEXT WEEK FOR THE WINNER AND A NEW HEAD TO HEAD BATTLE!!
The Healey version though all The Beatles fans will lynch me.😂

I’m a Santana girl from childhood, so I may be biased, but Carlos’ version is best. Sorry, Beatles fans! Don’t send angry e-mails! 🙂

I would have to go for Santana here. I love the summer vibe he gives to this song. Also he adds something stylefull to thd sad. As if you are heartbroken, bit fabulous while being sad. The other versions are mostly all sad 😛
