I'm bummed that my Joe Purdy song got knocked out first round but it did put up a hell of a fight against a giant, Bad Bad Leroy Brown (only lost by 1 by my count) so that's pretty cool.

1. One Toke Over the Line-Brewer and Shipley vs Judy Collins - Both Sides Now
This was tough because I really liked both songs, but Judy Collins has a beautiful voice, and I love the song "Both Sides Now", (Both this version and Neil Diamond's version).
2. I Got You, Babe - Sonny and Cher vs Tan Sleeve - When Lindsey Buckingham Shaved His Beard
3. Ray Lamontagne - Jolene (Not a Dolly Parton cover, lest you be mistaken) vs Pete Seeger - Goodnight Irene
While listening to the Ray Lamontagne song, I was trying was trying to figure out where I had heard his voice before, then I looked in the column of recommended songs on the YouTube page, and I saw his song "Trouble" listed, and I realized it was used in a commercial with a dog looking for a safe place to store his bone.
4. Sunshine Superman-Donovan vs Mitch and Mickey - A Kiss At the End of the Rainbow
I didn't really care much for the guy's voice, (from Mitch and Mickey), but the song "A Kiss At the End of the Rainbow" is a beautiful song.
5. The Microphones - I Want Wind to Blow vs The Kingston Trio - Where Have All The Flowers Gone
6. The Dubliners and the Pogues - Irish Rover vs Mumford and Sons - Winter Winds
7. Donovan - Catch the Wind vs The Byrds - Turn, Turn, Turn
I liked the song "Catch the Wind", but I love "Turn, Turn, Turn".

1. One Toke Over the Line-Brewer and Shipley vs
Judy Collins - Both Sides Now
I like One Toke Over the :Line, but like Judy Collins voice, but isn't there a version where she sings it more slowly? I think there is and I like it better sung slow
2. I got you, Babe - Sonny and Cher vs Tan Sleeve - When Lindsey Buckingham Shaved His Beard
loved this.
3. Ray Lamontagne-Jolene (Not a Dolly Parton cover, lest you be mistaken) vs Pete Seeger - Goodnight Irene
hard one. I've gone with Goodnight Irene cos it reminds me of parents sing songs
4. Sunshine Superman-Donovan vs
Mitch and Mickey - A Kiss At the End of the Rainbow
5. The Microphones - I Want Wind to Blow vs The Kingston Trio - Where Have All The Flowers Gone
Where have all the Flowers Gone is of course a classic, but the Microphones has an intimate quality that's really appealing
6. The Dubliners and the Pogues - Irish Rover vs Mumford and Sons - Winter Winds
no contest even if it wasn't my nom
7. Donovan - Catch the Wind vs The Byrds - Turn, Turn, Turn
8. Van Morrison - Moondance vs Indigo Girls - Closer to Fine
loved those girls. will look for more of their stuff

1. One Toke Over the Line-Brewer and Shipley vs Judy Collins - Both Sides Now
Beautiful song with really great lyrics.
2. I got you, Babe Sonny and Cher vs Tan Sleeve When Lindsey Buckingham Shaved His Beard
Not crazy about either, but Tan Sleeve's became too long.
3. Ray Lamontagne-Jolene vs Pete Seeger - Goodnight Irene
Pretty impressive song. May've went with Irene if Leadbelly was doing it.
4. Sunshine Superman-Donovan vs Mitch and Mickey - A Kiss At the End of the Rainbow
A Kiss is simple, sweet, nice harmony here and there and Sunshine just runs on too long.
5. The Microphones - I Want Wind to Blow vs The Kingston Trio - Where Have All The Flowers Gone
Agree with Christine about Wind but it also gets shaky, loses steam and thus it's novelty.
6. The Dubliners and the Pogues - Irish Rover vs Mumford and Sons - Winter Winds
Irish Rover wins if it's over much quicker.
7. Donovan - Catch the Wind vs The Byrds - Turn, Turn, Turn
Tough. But I love the sweet little bend of this melody and it's intimacy with Donovan alone on his guitar.
8. Van Morrison - Moondance vs Indigo Girls - Closer to Fine
Hard to vote against anything Van Morrison does.
Beautiful song with really great lyrics.
