Each week, several cats battle it out over the same song. I ask you to listen to the audio file below, which contains a themed music program and concludes with several versions of the same song by many different artists. Listen to both versions in their entirety before deciding which one you TRULY DIG THE MOST! Then vote below and see how your fellow Cat Fighters voted. That's the Friday Night Cat Fight from MattTheCat.com.
This year, the Annual Baseball Show makes its debut as a 2 hour podcast. I’ve been putting together a yearly baseball radio show since April of 1993 and the tradition continues.
Over this podcast you’ll hear the greatest baseball songs ever recorded highlighting the game’s top players and teams. My team vignettes include The Red Sox, Yankees, Cubs, Dodgers, Giants, St. Louis Browns and more. The show also features some of the great historical baseball moments of the past 100 years.
Then, near the end of the program, I’ll ask you to vote for your favorite version of “Did You See Jackie Robinson Hit That Ball.” Dig the show and then vote below.
With April Fool’s Day this coming Wednesday, The Friday Night Cat Fight features songs about “FOOLS” this week. Now, we’ve all been fooled from time to time. Sometimes we “play the fool” and other times we “Pity The Fool”. All these fools add up to just one thing; a battle of the fools over the song, “What Kind Of Fool Do You Think I Am”. Listen to the complete program and then vote for the version of the song that you truly DIG THE MOST. Vote below and don’t get fooled again, baby!
We’re celebrating the beginning of a new season with this week’s Friday Night Cat Fight. The theme this week is “Spring”. Since this season brings that rain that makes the flowers grow, this week’s Cat Fight will be over the song “Walking In The Rain.” Listen to the podcast, which contains both versions of the song and then vote below for the one you dig the most.
This week’s Friday Night Cat Fight Show takes on the “bad luck” of Friday, The 13th and matches up against the “luck of the Irish” just in time for St. Patrick’s Day. We begin the podcast with a few tunes about bad luck and move into some great tunes about good luck. Then, we take the traditional Irish classic, “Danny Boy” and put the amazing voice of Patti LaBelle up against “Mr. Excitement”, Jackie Wilson.
Listen to this week’s Friday Night Cat Fight and then vote for the one you DIG THE MOST, below. Good luck!
This week’s Friday Night Cat Fight is a battle between 2 very capable ballad singers, Donnie Owens and Johnny Jack. Donnie cut the song in mid 1958 and it hit #25 on the pop charts. In 1962, Johnny Jack recorded a version of the same song and it was a big hit in the Pittsburgh area, but not nationally. Listen to both versions of the song, which are found near the end of the Cat Fight Podcast and decide which version you like better. Voice your choice by voting below.
This week, we have our first FOUR-WAY Friday Night Cat Fight. All four versions of the classic “Open The Door, Richard” made it to #2 on Billboard’s R&B Chart in the first part of 1947. Listen to the Cat Fight Podcast and all four versions of this song in their entirety before you make your choice and vote below.
This week’s Friday Night Cat Fight takes us down to The Big Easy for a New Orleans themed Cat Fight Show. The battle royale this week is between two natives of New Orleans doing slightly different versions of the same song. We begin with “Jock-A-Mo” from Sugar Boy Crawford & His Cane Cutters from 1953. It’s up against The Dixie Cups classic top 20 hit from 1965, “Iko Iko”. Only you can decide who will take the Mardi Gras Friday Night Cat Fight. Grab a hurricane and dig, baby, dig. Where ya at?
Congratulations to Amos Milburn who won last week’s Cat Fight with over 50% of the vote. He defeated both Chuck Berry AND The Rolling Stones over the song, “Down The Road Apiece.”
This week, we’re back to the 2-way Cat Fight battle format, featuring Clyde McPhatter and Tom Jones. Both cats give a great R&B performance, but only one can be declared the victor and that choice is up to you, Cats n’ Kittens. So listen to the new 40 minute Cat Fight show with the Valentine’s theme of “Hearts” and then vote on the World FamousFriday Night Cat Fight.
Friday Night Cat Fight EXTENDED to Half Hour Show!
This is a big week for the Friday Night Cat Fight. First off, congratulations to The Five Keys, who won the past five consecutive Cat Fights and are now inducted into the MattTheCat.com “Alley Of Fame”. Now that they are in the “Alley”, they can no longer compete in a future Cat Fight.

AND, the segment has now been extended to 30 plus minutes of music, which all revolves around a theme. Since tonight’s Cat Fight is “Down The Road Apiece”, I’ve chosen “ROADS” as our theme. Dig on the music and vote for the version of “Down The Road Apiece” that you truly DIG THE MOST. Let me know what you think of the new format in the “comments” section after you vote. Enjoy!

Which One Do You DIG The Most? - "The Glory Of Love" Pt. 2
The Friday Night Cat Fight began in 2002 on Matt The Cat's "Night Prowl Show" on XM Radio as a one-off, fun feature. The idea was to put the Crew-Cuts cover of "Sh-Boom" up against The Chords original version. The response was so overwhelming, that the Friday Night Cat Fight became a weekly feature on "The Night Prowl Show". When the program ended its run on XM in October of 2008, Matt The Cat decided it should continue on the web. The voting never closes on the web, so tell everyone you know to drop by and voice their choice for the version of the song that they truly DIG THE MOST!
