Stevie's Cover CD...

[kennation]

So Stevie Nicks said that she would like to do a cd where she covers men's songs... What songs would you like to hear???

My List:
Crash... of course!!!
Hotel California
Long Cool Woman in a Black Dress
Barely Breathing (Duncan Sheik)
Wiked Games (Duet w/Chris Issak)
Rock and Roll
Hungry Like a Wolf (Duran Duran)
Black Magic Woman
Obsession (Animotion)
These Arms of Mine -or- Sittin on the Dock of the Bay(Ottis Redding)
Missing You (John Waite)
Hungry Eyes (Could you imagine??? How great that could be???)

Please let me know what you think... Add some of your own ideas...

[BellaDonna93]

I would like to hear Stevie do Don't Stop Belivin' by Journey!!! Or Nothing Elese Matters by Metallica, haha! That's a great song!

[GypsyGirl15]

Crash, Wicked Games, Hungry Eyes ... would be awesome. I can't really think of anything else right now. ... Looking For The Summer by Chris Rea maybe or a certain song by Right Said Fred?

[HejiraNYC]

I think the album of male cover songs is already available in some way/shape/form:

-"I Need to Know"
-"Crash"
-"Face the Promise"
-"Rock and Roll"
-"Hotel California"
-"New York Minute" (my fave Stevie cover, evah!)
-"It's Late"
-"Free Fallin'"
-"Last Worthless Evening"
-"Just Like a Woman"
-"I Still Miss Someone"

[Fannymac]

The one cover I'm dying to see Stevie do is the Dixie Chicks' "Everybody Knows"....I think this song is PERFECT for her!

As for the "guy" theme.....I'll have to think about that one!

I would add Don't Stop believing. I am not sure if Nothing Else Matters would appeal to her the way it appeals to say you or I. I really like that song, but I would be nervous on how the cover would turn out... So let's add Don't Stop (BRILLIANT SUGGESTION!!!)

Crash
Hotel California
Long Cool Woman in a Black Dress
Barely Breathing (Duncan Sheik)
Wiked Games (Duet w/Chris Issak)
Rock and Roll
Hungry Like a Wolf (Duran Duran)
Black Magic Woman
Obsession (Animotion)
These Arms of Mine -or- Sittin on the Dock of the Bay(Ottis Redding)
Hungry Eyes (Could you imagine??? How great that could be???)
Don't Stop Believing Journey

... This would freakin ROCK!!!

[PenguinHead]

Forget the contempary songs... Otis Reddding songs and others of that era would be great. Her performance of "At Last" reveals how she could excell in that genere. It would certainly open the eyes and ears of those who never "got" her. "Sitting on the Dock..." and "Long Cool Woman..." are brilliant choices!! I like and respect Journey...but gag at the thought of her covering such middle-of-the-road 80's songs. There are far deeper, better sources of music out there that are begging for re-interpretation.

OH, right on! I totally agree. I was driving home last night, from a Duncan Sheik concert and Hungry Like a Wolf came on. I could just see her throwing those hands in the air and Sharon doing back-up... She would totally rock it. I know how much she loves those R&B tunes so of course they would be great, but songs like that would just give a broader scope of time... I just think someone should take her this list and get started, lol!!! Little Stevie Nicks singing Hungry Like a Wolf!!! OH! Love it! However, Long Cool Woman... would be freakin insane!!! Agree?
