Today's Battle: Simon and Garfunkel vs. The Cyrkle


"Our manager got us a great deal on jawlines!"

VS.

"Don't we look pensive and brooding..."
OK...maybe not so much a battle as a pummeling.



I think it's pretty safe to say we all know Simon and Garfunkel.  We can probably name more than a few of their hits...

But...The Cyrkle?  "Who are they?" you are likely (not) pondering.  Well, the Cyrkle was a minor pop sensation who had one rather decent hit with Red Rubber Ball:



Actually, I think it's a pretty great little song.  Oddly enough...a song written by Paul Simon.

They covered another Paul Simon song: Cloudy.

So...I present:  Simon and Garfunkel's "Cloudy" vs. "Cloudy" by the Cyrkle.





To be honest, I really like the Cyrkle's harmonies.

Which do you prefer?

P.S.:  If The Uncola Song or "plop plop fizz fizz" mean anything to you, you can thank The Cyrkle for those, too!
