It's Worth Believin' 12 Talking in Your Sleep 8

"It's Worth Believin'" took an early lead, but "Talking in Your Sleep" fought back. In the end, "Believin'" won. That is truly one of my favourites too. It's got an atmosphere or mood, almost whimsical. Nice rhythm and guitar sound too.

Now we'll try two "toe-tappers." I was listening to my Summertime Dream Cd recently. Great songs on that one. I was also listening to Montreaux as well. A toe-tapper on those CD's is "I'd Do It Again." I don't think I've ever heard anyone talk about that tune on this board. So I'm going to force you to talk about it. Here is today's matchup. Which song do you prefer?

I'd Do It Again

or

Bend in the Water

Have a great day.
