Now, it seems like Pete Seeger sang everything anyone ever wrote, but a couple I enjoyed were Masters of War {okay, another Dylan, but it's so eeeeeeeeeasy!} with Simultaneous Japanese Translation and Clouds which he altered to suit himself, with an explanation.

Great thread.

I know this was brought up way back in April, but Sarah McLachlan covered Donovan's "Wear Your Love Like Heaven" on her Solace album.

Anyway, here's my contribution:

The Sundays – Wild Horses
The The – Your Cheatin’ Heart
John Cale - Hallejulah
Liz Phair – I’m a Believer
Cowboy Junkies – Sweet Jane
Elvis Costello - Bama Lama Bama Loo
Johnny Cash - Sunday Morning Coming Down
The Band – I Shall Be Released
James Taylor – You’ve Got a Friend
Urge Overkill – Girl, You’ll Be a Woman Soon
Dave Edmunds - Girls Talk
10,000 Maniacs – Because the Night
Jimi Hendrix – The Star Spangled Banner
Lemonheads – Mrs. Robinson
John Prine – City of New Orleans

Jon, you have some good suggestions. Some of those have been forgotten by moi thus far. I could do those Cowboy Junkies' songs but I have a new EP of covers by them. I like the older covers better, really, hmnn?

I love Dave Edmunds' Girls Talk....forgot about that one. The Band did few covers, forgot about that one and, of course, have it in atleast 2 formats. I definitely have The Lemonheads and forgot about that one, I think it's on IT'S A SHAME ABOUT RAY. I heard it on College Radio years ago.

I just say no to JT's You've Got A Friend. I've just heard that song too many times over the years...more so long ago... I could find a more exotic cover by him with some effort or his bro, Livingston, that I also like beaucoups.

I have the majority of your list. I've been spreading out the Sweet Jane and Wild Horses covers out...yeah, I have The Sundays too. I don't have Urge Overkill, nice name! I remember that song from the prehistoric ages.



Rachael, the big disc cat! I used to be looking for Hi-Vision Laserdiscs & D-Theater tapes, now I'm looking for HD-DVD's and Blu-rays.

I survived the AFI top 100 Film Challenge! I've seen them all.

Two more that I don't recall on anyone's list:

Minor Threat covering Steppin' Stone. The already brief Monkees song in less than half the time!

Commander Cody and His Lost Planet Airmen covering Hot Rod Lincoln. This is a fun cover of a classic, old-time country song.

By the way, the Elvis covers I mentioned earlier are on the Honeymoon In Vegas soundtrack which, as I recall, was comprised mostly of uninspired performances with the possible exceptions of John Mellancamp's cover of Jailhouse Rock. Maybe it's worth picking up if you can find it ina 99 cent bin.

One last thing: Was Devo's cover of I Can't Get No Satisfaction on one of the lists? I apologize if I'm repeating at this point.

Steve, you sparked me with John Mellancamp. I don't have that one by him but I do have UNDER THE BOARDWALK. Of course I have Commander Cody and had forgotten about them. I have another version of Stepping Stone that will appear on the next recording. Thaty's my least favourite Devo song and I'm gonna give it a miss.

Jon, I realized I used those Wild Horses on an earlier edition already... The Cowboy Junkies will be comin' around the bend, again, I'm sure.
