This it it, music nerds! The final two contenders in the Weather Channel’s Weather Song Tournament go verse-to-verse and chorus-to-chorus today! Go here to cast your vote before 5am EDT tomorrow!
I am still carrying a torch for Gene Kelly, and disappointed that “Singin’ in the Rain“ didn’t advance to the final round. But the competitors who did advance are certainly worthy. Let’s take a look!
Weather Song Championship Round!
- The Beatles: “Here Comes The Sun” vs. Bing Crosby: “White Christmas“
Not to get all philosophical on you, but… Christmas comes but once a year, but we look forward to the sun rising every day (and somehow, it never gets old!). I think as Weather Songs go, it’s hard to get more quintessential.
MMN’s pick: The Beatles: “Here Comes The Sun”
I’ve had fun revisiting all of these great classic songs. I’m glad I just happened to look at the Weather Channel’s home page on the day the tournament started, or I would have been oblivious to it. I suppose I have McDoc to thank for that, since he is a full-on weather nerd, and it has rubbed off on me a little bit!
What’s your pick, music nerds?
Let’s keep in touch!
