I'd love to hear Damien and Lisa do a cover of 'Fairytale of New York', what do you think?

i'd like to hear them play "walk to the water" by u2. and i'd like to hear lisa sing "we shall overcome", she reminds me of joan baez sometimes.

yeah thats a really good song I really like his cover of "still havnt found what I'm looking for" and i think lisa could make a great job of nothing compares to U, damien did a good cover himself of another Prince song "kiss" it would be interesting to see his take on "the last goodbye" by jeff buckley

I agree, anything Jeff Buckley would be a sure bet. Peter Gabriel's "Don't give Up" would be a smash...lisa on the Kate Bush part would be amazing!

i think it'd be really cool if he covered something really strange like boy george or david bowie that'd be weird actually if he covered some eric clapton that would kick ass. imagine him doing the acoustic version of layla? wow he so should do that

damien's done "kiss"?!?!?! i love that song! too bad i haven't heard him doing it [img]smileys/smiley19.gif[/img]
i agree that hearing him do "last goodbye" would be absolutely lovely! he would do an amazing version for sure...
as for "sweet thing", i really like the waterboys cover of it... but i'm sure damo would make it his own and make it even more beautiful....
i think he could do a really good job with "have you forgotten?" by the red house painters...
heck, i just want to see him sing anything! i think i could listen to him play for years on end... i would just need a pillow and some water, and i'd be good [img]smileys/smiley1.gif[/img]

I heard counting crows do a cover of 'sweet thing' at a recent concert in southern california...so bloody awesome...they did it inside of another song 'sullivan street' I think both songs would be great for Damien.

i wish he would mix in "ive got 5 on it" with Volcano as the two are exactly the same beats...

Thanks Jeweller, the safes now have their names. My sisters and I decided Oscar (who is on top) is having way more fun than Shakespeare (on the bottom)...

If I had to choose a song for him to cover I would want to hear him do a Bob Dylan song. If Damien covered "Not Dark Yet," that would be so freakin awesome. His voice is of course ten times better than Dylan's, plus that is just an amazing song in itself. I think that it would really work out.
