Hi there! I'm just a woman that looks at life as an adventure. I'm a Texas girl trying to find joy in every day. I'm obsessed with Halloween , I love to go junking, I like to drink wine, and I'm a Harley girl! Thank you for letting me share my stories, opinions, etc.
The winner of last week's Battle of the Band goes to Imagine Dragons. They got 11 votes. 311 got 4 votes and if Adele was in the running she had 5 votes where people commented.
The 311 version gets played quite a bit on the radio which reminded me of the battle. Sometimes you have to turn the radio up and listen closely to see if its The Cure or 311. They sound so similar and that was in the comments that they didnt really try to make it their own.
Thanks so much for your comments- votes!! We will have our next battle in a week on September 1.
I will leave you today with the Imagine Dragon song that rose them to stardom. Radioactive. I love this song.
Um Hm, i bet you thought i forgot didnt you! The Battles are always on the 1st and the 15th. I have been out all day long enjoying my weekend. Todd is grilling dinner and i am making my post. Hey, better that late never right?
Anywho, I will say this now- this is only my 3rd time to be in the battle. Its been going on for years and many people are in the battle. I will most likely almost definitely be posting a duplicate of an early battle.
My battle this time is the Love Song originally by The Cure. The Cure was very popular in the 80's and were considered an alternative rock band with goth added in. I love them! I wore their cassettes out when i was in high school and college.
Here is the original:
The battle is between another rock band that was more around in the late 90's and early 2000's. The band is 311 ( pronounced three eleven NOT three one one). They released their cover of this back in 2009.
Another popular band called Imagine Dragons did a cover for a publicity appearance on the Biz.
This song is not part of the battle well unless you insist on voting on it but it was also covered by the popular Adele.
There have been quite a few bands who have done the song but these are the ones that have stood out to me. So vote between 311 and Imagine Dragons. I will post the winner on the 6th or 7th. Hope you're having a great day yall!!!
