Happy Music Monday all!! Started by Drew @the Tattooed Book Geek, this is slowly becoming my favourite day of the week!!!
Before I get to who won last weeks stand off, I’d like to thank everyone who contributed ideas for more “Who Did it Better?” ideas!! I can’t wait to get to all of them!! This is going to go on forever!! If anyone else thinks of a Stand off they would like to add feel free to add it to the Comments HERE. Now, for the Moment you’ve all been waiting for!!
The Winner of last weeks Stand off for “Who Did it Better” Radioactive, Imagine Dragons or The Gregory Brothers, the winner was…………………………………………………………….
………………………………………………………………………………………………………….
……………………………………………………………………………………..
IMAGINE DRAGONS!!
*SHOCK AND AWE* I bet you didn’t see that one coming!
Now, on to this weeks stand off! You all knew this had to be coming!!
Yes it’s monday again! I’m in total and utter shock here to see who won last week’s standoff. I totally did not see that one coming, at all 😮😮😳😳 (No of course I am not being sarcastic….would not dream of it 😅).
Well…this is a tough one. I do think that in the Whitney will turn out to be the winner, but just for the heck of it: I’m going to go with Dolly. You just can’t beat her voice 😊😊

Haha…that is also an art form lol. I sometimes like playing Devil’s Advocate, and in this case I thought it was justified. As Dolly is awesome 😊😊

Haha…true. It can pretty much stop a conversation dead in it’s tracks and create some truly awkward situations. (Like the kinds where you wish the floor would open up and swallow you whole lol 😂😂).

Haha…Well I’m the same in that way too. I think I can probably do better here than in real life, but yeah comments can sometimes be misinterpreted. (Which luckily so far hasn’t happened yet…at least….I think it hasn’t 🤔🤔 😂😂 Oh, and I think you have nothing to worry about your comments are always great 😊❤️

Ooh this is a hard one, as Dolly wrote the song I guess she should win, but I love Whitney’s version just a little bit more.

It’s who did it BETTER, not who did it FIRST! 😉😂 That’s the fun of these, sometimes the original doesn’t win. 😁😁

Gotta go with Whitney as well. On an unrelated note, havent been able to start Discworld yet. Wasn’t able to do as much reading this weekend as planned – spent the time writing instead – working on my own stuff. I’ll get there – may just take another day or two. Cheers, Brian

Oh goodness, this is tough! Growing up, Whitney was one of my favorites, and she nails every single song…but Dolly absolutely nailed this song. I’m going with Dolly. Typing it before I change my mind again! 😂

I’d like to cast my vote for Carlos Santana please. Lol! In this one , I don’t think there’s a way to choose. Both are amazing versions and are done so differently I don’t know that you can compare them.

I feel like this one is really easy because I never really liked the Dolly version… Of course, even though I know Dolly did it first, I actually remember hearing Whitney’s version waaay before I ever heard Dolly do it. My vote is for Whitney ❤

Well, I said this to Fraggle as well, it’s not “Who did it FIRST? ” it’s “Who did it BETTER?” Lol! I feel like too many people are hung up on who did the original version of a song and won’t stop to appreciate another version! I hope people can get over that and just give their honest opinions! That’s what makes this fun! 💖💖 A vote for Whitney, it is! 😁😁🍻
