for Tammy
I had favorites for Daughtry to do as well ("Live", 3Doors Down, Nickleback-type stuff)...
until the last couple of weeks. Who'd have ever thought of hearing a Cash song done that way? And I bet you money the man in black would have loved it.
I'd be afraid to pick for him. Sheesh. He's the man to beat.
Yes Bo did a good job with Heaven. Don't know if that is a song I want to see Taylor do though.
Just as I saw your post, Jonny, 'Pretty Woman' started. I absolutely LOVE this version because of the long guitar riff.
I forgot about that. Good call.
Maybe Taylor could run through some of Van Morrison's more recent catalogue, like "Stranded" or "Hey Mr DJ"
How about U2's "Vertigo"--It's mainstream rock, but if Chris could do it justice he might tear the roof off the place :o
I am having a hard time picking anything for Taylor...this might be a hard night for him.
That would be a good one! Taylor though is hard to think of songs for.
These days I don't buy whole CD's any more. I set up a bank account in which I keep just a couple of hundred dollars expressly for the purpose of buying stuff online. I now buy songs individually online. That's how I acquired 'Boulevard of Broken Dreams' and 'Wake Me Up When September Ends.' Never did by the album for the same reason you won't.
Agreed - Hicks may have to find a good recent country hit and blues it up. Daughtry should own the night and further cement his frontrunner status. We shall see...
Taylor could do a Tom Waits song....
Would be great if he would step out of alternative rock, but Simon stupidly reinforced Chris' tendency to stay in that genre.
Taylor might do well with a Dave Matthews song.
Maybe something R&B, but you're right--choosing for him is tough.
He says Hicks might also be able to do "Beverly Hills" by Weezer.
LOL! Because you mentioned it, I just went over to music.msn.com and bought 'Vertigo.'
If he goes that route, he should consider doing Keith Urban's smash hit 'Making Memories of Us' if he wants to do a ballad. Or if he wants an up-tempo song, he should consider 'Gone' by Montgomery Gentry. That one is a great rockin' tune.
He'll force them to fit, anyway! :0
What about "Helena" by My Chemical Romance or "Dance, Dance" by Fall Out Boy?
Maybe something R&B, but you're right--choosing for him is tough.
Just ask him. He's had trouble choosing lately.
I would love to see Chris step out of his comfort zone just once.
Wait a minute... OK maybe not a marathon...I need to get that thought out of my head or I will be having nightmares. Seeing that movie once was bad enough. UGH.
Q. Why did the chicken cross the road?
A. Because he was booted off IDOL.
OK, I will leave our little fine-feathered friend alone now. I will probably actually miss the little twerp--in a I-sorta-like-to-irritate-my-canker-sore- kinda way.
Goodnight.
