Covers week ends today and the song of the day for Friday, September 14, 2012 is 'Blinded by the Light', a 1976 #1 hit by Manfred Mann's Earth Band. The original artist for 'Blinded by the Light' was Bruce Springsteen who released it on his 1973 debut album Greetings from Asbury Park, N.J.
Manfred Mann is not the lead singer for this song, but he is the dude playing keyboards. I thought you should know that, so you can learn something important today. I've always been a fan of this version, and I do admit that I like this version better than Bruce's. Hold your horses, Springsteen fans. I like Bruce's music, but his original version of 'Blinded by the Light' is too slow and dull for me. Want to debate which one is better? Use the comment section below to share your two cents, but enjoy the song.
