SUNNY AFTERNOON #BOTB

TITANIUM #BOTB RESULTS

WELCOME BACK TO BOTB! 
It’s time to announce the results of the May 1st showdown.

This battle featured duelling contestants on talent shows.

 I thought this contest would be fairly close, and boy, was I ever wrong! 😲 Turns out, with the exception of one "lesser of two evils" vote, all of your preferred Madilyn Bailey's version. As for me, I loved Asher's highly emotional performance, but concur that Madilyn did a great job as well.

Here’s how it went down:

OOWATANITE #BOTB RESULTS

WELCOME BACK TO BOTB! 
It’s time to announce the results of the April 1st showdown.

This battle featured duelling rock bands and a battle of the sexes:
Canadian males vs South African females!

 I thought this contest would be fairly close and it was! The turnout was a little sparse and two BOTB participants didn't vote at all (wassup with that? 🤔), which might have made a difference. Anyway, thanks to all who did take the time to play. 🌹

It was a dead heat, and I chose the heavier sound of The Dirty Nil to break the tie.

Here’s how it went down:

VEHICLE #BOTB RESULTS

WELCOME BACK TO BOTB! 
It’s time to announce the results of the March 1st showdown.

This battle featured an American Idol alum vs an American-Italian soul singer.

At first it appeared to be a close battle, but then Bo, with help from Richie Sambora, took a strong lead. For me, it was a tough decision. I've been a fan of Wess' since the 1960s, when I lived in Europe. And Bo was my choice to win American Idol. In the end, the slighter slower tempo and Richie's guitar riffs gave Bo the edge.

Here’s how it went down:
