If you could have any band cover any song, who would cover what and why?

I'd like to hear the Go-Gos cover Iron Maiden's 'Number of the Beast'. Under all of that guy sweat, hair, leather, studs, and spookiness, there's an awesome girlie pop song waiting to be set free by the Go-Gos.

"Two become one" by the Spice Girls covered by Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds. It's a perfect fit.

I'd like to hear Wilco play "Like A Hurricane."  Nels could really rip it up.

if anyone could do it, it's Kozelek. he's got a pretty good knack for making anybody's song sound like his own.

have you heard Tori Amos'  version of that song?

it's actually very good!


I love Kozelek's version of the AC/DC classic "if you want blood you got it"
