Pick up Nils Lofgren's THE LONER.....usually, I just can't handle Young's voice, but hearing all of his stuff done by someone else....it's sheer poetry, plain and simple!

[QUOTE=chiliD;902924]Is that the Leonard Cohen song that has been covered ad nauseum? If so, we don't need to add another version of it floating around out there...even if it IS by Stevie Nicks. Concrete Blonde's is by far the best.

Nope, it's an original.....great story, great vibe....VERY Stevie-esque!! In fact, if I didn't know better, I'd say it was a cover of a Stevie song!

I love Jefferson Airplane and that's one of my favorite songs!!! I would love to hear that!

She's never sung 'Somebody To Love' that I know of. The song she sang live one time was 'Love Is Like An Itching In My Heart'.

Default 'nother suggestion

"Sober" by Pink. i think it easily fits into Stevie's ouvre thematically, though it may be a tad more direct than she is used to

Hate to say it but I don't think Stevie's got the pipes for a song like that any more. If she wants to prove me wrong though and do a kick-ass performance I'll be more than happy though!

Hmmmm, what should Stevie cover? I've always thought she'd do a great version of Jackson Browne's Late For The Sky. I know it sounds a bit odd but I really think she'd pull it off. The key could easily work for her etc... That or more "classic" covers like her AMAZING performance of At Last!

After just listening to it again, I now think Stevie should open the show with a cover of Teen Beat.

Somebody to Love (the Jefferson Airplane song) as a nod to Grace Slick could be cool. Or maybe she could cover Thing Called Love (John Hiatt did the original, Bonnie Raitt made it awesome) or You're No Good (dunno who did the original, but I know Linda Ronstadt made it famous).

Maybe she'll do that Buddy Holly tune she was reported to have recorded with Peter Asher for a Buddy Holly tribute album he was producing?

I always thought her mature voice would do well with Cat Stevens's "Wild World".

I think White Rabbit would be more appropriate for Stevie considering her love of Alice in Wonderland.

Another good one indeed ; )

And what about one of those old bluesy numbers she's been wanting to record...
