Streets by Coldplay

I've always thought Running To Stand Still would've been brilliant with Chris on Piano.

 

[elevation622]

nice good idea, maybe they should do October or New Years day. I was thinking them doing Streets like Clocks. I'm out of my mind though

All Because Of You - Pearl Jam

COBL - Coldplay

One - Snow Patrol

Wake Up Dead Man - Doves

 

[No spoken words]

All Because Of You - Pearl Jam

COBL - Coldplay

One - Snow Patrol

Wake Up Dead Man - Doves

Wake up Dead Man by the Doves, wow, that's really interesting. Would sound great, I bet.

I always wanted to hear Rush cover Gloria, no clue why.

Coldplay covering COBL would be great, too, with Chris on keyboards.

I'd like the Catherine Wheel to re-form and cover Last Night on Earth.

Pearl Jam covering New Year's Day.

I am sure none of mine make sense, but, there you have it anyway.

 

[miss becky]

I'd love to hear Doves do Streets.

Coldplay doing City of Blinding Lights would be pretty interesting too.

 

[No spoken words]

Maybe Cher doing I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For? Oh, wait.....

 

[Bono's shades]

I want to hear Bruce Springsteen and the E-Street Band do Desire. I'd love to hear Pearl Jam do Bullet the Blue Sky. Or Prince perform Lemon.

I wonder what Jeff Buckley or Roy Orbison would have sounded like singing With or Without You? Unfortunately, we will never have the opportunity to find out.

Mysterious ways - the Chilli Peppers

I Will Follow - the strokes






































40 - Lionel Richie

 

[Axver]

Street Mission by Dream Theater. Lemon by Dire Straits. Bullet The Blue Sky by Crowded House. Oh, and how could I forget, The Fly by the Dalton Brothers!

 

[timothius]

Bullet The Blue Sky by Crowded House.

Wow that would sound....ummmm....varied. Especially without a drummer these days

I've always wanted to hear Split Enz do Discotheque.

 

[1stepcloser]

Mofo - The Prodigy

 

[nickypiemcg]

I've never really thought about this. To be honest I can't think of a single U2 song that I would like to hear a band other than U2 playing. I'm not really a big fan of covers. I think though maybe with or without you by someone with a really strong vocal (Bono struggles a wee bit these days!). So bearing that in mind (I'm sue alot of people won't like this!) I'd like to see Bryan Adams doing it. He is a really good singer. I'm prepared for the uproar.

 

[LMP]

Lemon - Prince
Desire - Franz Ferdinand
New Year's Day - Coldplay
Do You Feel Loved - David Bowie
Miracle Drug - John Mayer
Tomorrow - Sting

One - Automatic Baby
Out of Control - Green Day
Staring at the Sun - Oasis
I Still Haven't Found... - Da Boss!
Angel of Harlem - Los Lonely Boys

wow, that hurt my head alot

Well, you never know, maybe Neil could imitate the sounds of drums! "Doov da-doov ..."

I'd also like to hear an Enz interpretation of Lady With The Spinning Head or Daddy's Gonna Pay For Your Crashed Car.

 

[timothius]

I'd also like to hear an Enz interpretation of Daddy's Gonna Pay For Your Crashed Car.

That's right in both Neil & Tim's drool-worthy vocal range. That would be awesome.

Yep, I've got their cover of Red Hill Mining Town, and I agree, it's sensational. I also have one version of Bad, possibly two. I have an MP3 of a performance of Bad of an uncertain date, and I recently downloaded a torrent that also includes Bad but I haven't listened yet so I don't know if it is the same performance as my MP3 or not.

I also understand that they created To Live Forever after seeing the Rattle And Hum movie.
