I was out of town and knew I wouldn't be able to play along or get to everyones battle. <br />I grew up idolizing ONJ after watching Grease 17 times the week it came out.

As far as summer coming to an end, I really don't think about that until after Labor Day and to me that's the unofficial end even though there is plenty of warm weather until the end of September. I'm not going to worry about it, but embrace the seasons as they come, but if I'm honest I have to admit I'm looking forward to autumn. Thanks for sharing the results of your last battle!Cathy Kennedyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01056276734145310231noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4688586956638235216.post-61023639446604449142015-08-11T11:36:58.373-05:002015-08-11T11:36:58.373-05:00I think I may do something a little different with...I think I may do something a little different with my next battle. <br />Perhaps an 'experimental' post.Jeffrey Scotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06973104877310669196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4688586956638235216.post-7981009193201096572015-08-11T11:04:49.103-05:002015-08-11T11:04:49.103-05:00Interesting battle!

It happens.<br /><br />The worst though is when you have such a massive blowout that the loser gets only ONE VOTE and that one vote is YOURS! That happened to me in BOTB #2. And adding insult to injury was the fact that I was certain the band I voted for was going to win by a huge margin. Only my lone, honest vote saved me from a shutout in that one. I couldn't believe it. I STILL can't believe it! And I had been worried beforehand that it might be a shutout IN THE OTHER DIRECTION.<br /><br />Right from BOTB #2 I realized how unpredictable BOTBs can be. I've gotten much better at predicting them, but that's only because I've now got 49 of them behind me. Practice makes... so-so. Ha!<br /><br />I like your "Top Comments" feature.

Thanks for reporting the results of ...Hi, Jeffrey! Thanks for reporting the results of your BOTB. I am surprised by the outcome. I actually believed that ONJ would win. As I experienced it, Olivia's version had more zest and spunk and did not sound "girly." I think the lopsided vote is indicative of the image problem that plagued Olivia for a long time, that of a lightweight pop, country and soft rock songstress. Determined to shed that image, Olivia reinvented herself in the late 70s and early 80s. She turned on the girl power, dressed in leather and recorded the titillating title "(Let's Get) Physical" and other material to keep step with the changing times.<br /><br />Thanks for another great battle, Jeffrey, and have a nice weekend!
