Though I enjoy honey and always have it in my cupboard, I've still not acquired a taste for honey in my coffee. I do like a strong cup of coffee.

I agree that J was awesome as a co-host, but I knew that already since J has always been awesome as a part of my Ambassador Team in past years. In fact all of the members of this year's smaller A to Z Team did a fantastic job.

Glad that you had a positive experience and thank you for sharing your thoughts about this year's Challenge. And most of all thanks for participating in the 2017 A to Z.

I don't recall having ever heard the Disturbed version of this song. They really rock it well and their version is outstanding.

However, Genesis being one of my favorite groups and "Land of Confusion" being one of their standout hits, I'm still partial to their version. Also easier on the ears for repeated listening. Fun seeing that video again.

My vote goes to Genesis.

I'm very familiar with the band's name as I was often tempted to buy one of their albums and I heard "If You Leave" played often on the radio. It's one of the few synth pop groups whose albums I never actually bought.

I figured I'd be on the losing side, but my reasons for voting the way I did were pretty good i thought.

I always liked the Doobie Brothers though they were like a different group after Michael McDonald came on board. Either way they put out great music that I still enjoy listening to.

Both versions are interesting. However I found the vocals in the version by El Chorazon to be weirdly compelling--kind of like Abba with the Mormon Tabernacle Quartet (if they had a quartet).

Give my vote to the borderline annoying instrumentally El Chorazon because I kind of am drawn to those vocals. They remind me of something I can't quite define.

This is a favorite song of mine and I've been a Blue Oyster Cult fan since the release of their first album. A lot of great music has come from that group.

Initially I was a bit taken aback by the poppish sound of the girl group, but then they drew me in. Big Country does a fine cover of the song, but it didn't go in an any different direction than the original. The Alice Band kicks the song with a driving punch that I find mighty compelling. I liked the acoustic guitar sound as well--an added twist.

Give my vote to The Alice Band.
