I think Sting's "Brand New Day" would be a great cover tune for Rush.

Anyone have similar cover ideas?

I'd like to see Ashlee Simpson sing Genesis' "I can't dance" for the sheer novelty of it

Prince, doing any Al Green song. I think he's the only one who could pull off those high parts, plus I think he could make them his own.

I'd be tickled to hear Tenacious D do Queen's Killer Queen. Something magical would be created.

I thought Marcus Miller should do the theme to the pink panther (exchange the sax for slappy bass done marcus style).

I posted this suggestion on his webpage a couple of years ago and he replied saying he'd have to think about it ... but again that was a couple of years ago. Too bad he didn't jump on it.

I was thinking about this a while ago, pre T.B., and I already goot my wish. Johnny Cash covering Danzig's "13". that song still sends chills up my spine.
Peace!
