There are a lot of people who play along with these battles so go to Stephen's page and check out all the others.
Here's how it works. I am going to post the same song sung by two different bands or singers.
You comment with your favorite and then i'll let you know later who won the battle. Fun huh?!
I only know a few that i wanted to enter the link with so it wont be an all the time gig for me. Or will it? I may have so much fun i want to always play along! Lets get through the first one.
The song is called Just Breathe. It was written and released in 2009 by the band Pearl Jam. I am really a big fan of this band and have always wanted to see them live but never have. Eddie Vedder is the lead singer of this band and he's very involved in charities, politics, etc. He uses his force for good and not evil though. I think he's an awesome song writer as well as other guys in the band.
In 2012 , Willie Nelson and his son Lukas Nelson did their own version. Now this is so hard because i honestly love both versions and have them on my ipod and phone. The video to me is Willie singing the song to his son and in the end he's preparing his son for when he's gone. Thats how i interpreted the video when seeing it. Listen to how much Lukas sounds like his dad. Crazy!
"Just Breathe"
Yes, I understand that every life must end, uh-huh
As we sit alone, I know someday we must go, uh-huh
Oh I'm a lucky man, to count on both hands the ones I love
Some folks just have one, yeah, others, they've got none
Stay with me...
Let's just breathe...
Practiced all my sins, never gonna let me win, uh-huh
Under everything, just another human being, uh-huh
I don't wanna hurt, there's so much in this world to make me bleed
Stay with me
You're all I see...
Did I say that I need you?
Did I say that I want you?
Oh, if I didn't I'm a fool you see
No one knows this more than me
As I come clean...
I wonder everyday, as I look upon your face, uh-huh
Everything you gave
And nothing you would save, oh no
Nothing you would take
Everything you gave...
Did I say that I need you?
Oh, did I say that I want you?
Oh, if I didn't I'm a fool you see
No one knows this more than me
And I come clean, ah...
Nothing you would take
Everything you gave
Hold me til I die
Meet you on the other side...

Can you believe that July is here? Seriously where did June go? It seems like we went from May to July. Have a great day!! I go home Thursday night and i'm ready for my own bed, my hubby and my dogs. Not in that order of course.
