My most recent Battle featured three performers, Van Morrison, Ray Charles, and Tony Bennett, covering the song "Bein’ Green," first done by Kermit The Frog.
When setting up this battle, I debated whether or not to include Van Morrison in it, because I was concerned that he’d run away with it. In the end, I included him, because I knew if I didn’t, people would complain "HEY! WHY DIDN’T YOU INCLUDE VAN MORRISON?" and he’d probably get a couple of write-in votes. So, I included him and, yes, he ran away with it.
Van Morrison – 7
- Willow
- Stephen
- Dan

- Arlee

Ray Charles – 1

Tony Bennett – 0 sorry, Tony
Congratulations to Van Morrison, a pat on the back for Ray Charles, and a shoulder to cry on for Tony Bennett, who didn’t get any votes. And thank you, Cathy, for making sure this battle didn’t end in a shutout.
Our next battle will be next Friday, July 15, at noon. Be there or be square…
WOW, I can’t believe I was the only one voting for Ray Charles and I stand by my vote 110%! 🙂

Wonder what the scores would have looked like if he hadn’t been in the battle?
