Today is the second day of voting in the Sweet Sixteen Round of the Weather Channel’s Weather Song Tournament! Time for two matchups each in the Rain & Seasons regions!
Sweet Sixteen Round: Rain Region
- Gene Kelly: “Singin’ in the Rain” vs. B.J. Thomas: “Raindrops Keep Fallin’ On My Head“
I advocated for this very matchup last week! Still, it’s really no contest.(I was sad to see the Eurhythmics eliminated, I must say!)
MMN’s pick: Gene Kelly: “Singin’ in the Rain”
- James Taylor: “Fire and Rain” vs. Creedence Clearwater Revival: “Have You Ever Seen the Rain?“
This is a “meh” matchup for me. I voted against both in the previous round, and don’t feel particularly enthused about either. But I like the James Taylor slightly better.
MMN’s pick: James Taylor: “Fire and Rain”
Sweet Sixteen Round: Seasons Region
- Bing Crosby: “White Christmas” vs. Don Henley: “The Boys of Summer“
Sorry, Boys — you’re out of your league!
MMN’s pick: Bing Crosby: “White Christmas”
- Ella Fitzgerald/Louis Armstrong: “Summertime” vs. The Lovin’ Spoonful: “Summer in the City“
Another lopsided matchup — the Ella & Louis juggernaut continues!
MMN’s pick: Ella Fitzgerald/Louis Armstrong: “Summertime”
Remember to vote before 5am EDT tomorrow!
What are your picks, music nerds?
