Challenge Billy!

[willow]

OK, time for a fun thread here ;D

We know that Billy has asked some high profile artists to do covers of his songs for the Tribute This film and album.

Why don't we turn this on its head and challenge Billy to cover some of their songs?

Let's suggest our own playlists and here is mine!

I do admit I don't know enough about all of the artists so while I could pick many songs from Bon Jovi and Bryan Adams, I got stuck on some others!

Bon Jovi - I'll be there for you
Bryan Adams - Summer of '69
Rod Stewart - First cut is the deepest
Bruce Springsteen - Philadelphia
Tom Petty - Don't come around here no more
Aaron Neville - Errr! (no, that is not a song!)
Elvis Costello - Can't stand up for falling down
Huey Lewis - Stuck with you
Steve Earle - Copperhead Road

Strangely enough I have a plan to record an accompanying album for Tribute This! called Tribute That! where I record one song by each of the featured artists. Some of my own choices so far are;

Elvis Costello - A Man Out Of Time
Bruce Springsteen - Stolen Car
Tom Petty - Even Tho Losers
Steve Earle - Jerusalem
Rod Stewart - You Wear It Well
Bon Jovi - In These Arms

Please add your thoughts. You never know you might fix me up with an unheard classic.
Cheers,

Billy

Good challenge. here's my twopenneth...

Bon Jovi - Blood On Blood (just pipped 99 In the Shade)

Bryan Adams - Summer Of 69

Rod Stewart - Gasoline Alley

Bruce Springsteen - Born To Run

Tom Petty - Free Fallin

Huey Lewis - Heart Of Rock 'n' Roll

Elvis Costello - This was really hard...I first picked Blame It On Cain, then changed to Alison, then changed to I Stand Accused and then finally ended with Shipbuilding

I didn't pick any for Aaron Neville & Steve Earle as I didn't think I knew enough about either of these guys to give them any credit. Anyone recommend any of their albums?

Cheers
