I was very happy to see that 3 out of 4 of my picks advanced to the Final Four round of the Weather Channel’s Weather Song Tournament! And really, I picked Bill Withers over the Beatles just to be contrary, so I’m pleased with 100% of the results.
We have four very strong contenders — all classics. I’m not sure if that’s due to the overall good taste and wisdom of the voters, or if it’s simply a reflection of their age range (i.e., kids these days don’t bother with weather forecasts!), but either way, I’ll take it!
Voting is open today, Tuesday March 27, in the Sun and Elements regions. Cast your vote before 5 am EDT tomorrow!
Final Four: Sun vs. Elements
- The Beatles: “Here Comes The Sun” vs. Judy Garland: “Over the Rainbow“
Ooh, this is difficult. I’m sure many of your music nerds are big Wizard of Oz fans and have a soft spot for “Over the Rainbow.” I’m going with the Beatles, though, because that’s a song that never fails to cheer a person up, and that’s a pretty essential thing in this ever-changing world in which we live in!
MMN’s pick: The Beatles: “Here Comes The Sun”
