Song Battles Part 2, Steph's Edition

Part 1 was fun. now this is more fully loaded and funner [by all means it's a word].

1st up:

Ne-Yo vs. Kelly Clarkson: "Because of You" and "Miss Independent"

ahh, Ne-Yo. a repeat offender. or maybe he's just a huge Kelly fan? that's cool. but hey, as a songwriter, you should at least try to come up with some original titles.

_________________________________________________________________________________

Stereos vs. LFO - "Summer Girl" vs. "Summer Girls"

i honestly cannot stand Stereos. although they're Canadian (and i fully support Canadian bands), they sound like a weird mix of Metro Station and heavily Auto-Tuned rap. but at least a straightforward song about a summer fling is way better than having to hear a song about Chinese food making you sick.

Prince vs. Tay Zonday - "Purple Rain" vs. "Chocolate Rain"

Prince (or , or whatever you like to call him) is one of the most influential black artists in rock and roll. Tay Zonday is one of the most influential black artists on Youtube. both songs deal with similar themes. although, with all respect to Prince, i've gotta give it to the underdog Tay cause his song is ridiculously catchy.

The Script vs. Chris Brown - "Talk You Down" vs. "Take You Down"

The title of my fave Irish lads' song suggests verbal abuse. Chris', on the other hand, suggests physical abuse [coincidental much?]. Which one do you think is more appropriate?

The Fray vs. 3OH!3 - "Trust Me" vs. "Don't Trust Me"

I've got one thing to say to you: Which band would you tell your deepest secret and feel trusted? (hint: possibly not 3OH!3)

Pat Benatar vs. Jordin Sparks - "Love Is A Battlefield" vs. "Battlefield"

Jordin says that Pat is one of her greatest influences. This is evidence.

 so everyone, part 2 is now finito! don't worry, I have more in store for you next time. until then, comment on these Song Battles!
