Battle of the Bands Results
My most recent Battle of the Bands was a showdown between seventies band Captain Beyond and the nineties song crafter Duncan Sheik. I'm a big fan of both of these songs. I love the psychedelia of Captain Beyond. There was mention about the droning repetition of the instrumental break, but I see it as a stoner effect that is almost an emulation of Irish fiddle music or a Scottish bagpipe tune. I can almost hear bagpipes playing that break. "Sufficiently Breathless" has long been a favorite song of mine.
On the other hand, I think "Barely Breathing" is a masterwork of modern songwriting. I like everything about this song and appreciate the skill in writing such a pop friendly piece. My vote goes to Duncan Sheik.
Final Vote Tally
Captain Beyond 5 votes
Duncan Sheik 4 votes
And that's it!
