Untitled(How Does It Feel...) by D'Angelo.
I'd love to hear him put his own spin on that track.
Especially since it was written as an homage to him.

Chris Isaak - Wicked Game.

And he could blend it with The Love We Make from Emancipation - both songs sounds THE SAME. Just listen to them - same guitar effect, similar melody..

Scorpions - Tease Me, Please Me

I love that song, and I think he could have a hit with that.

Sly Stone's 'Stand'

I have seen him do other Sly songs and Wonder's Superstition at the Indigo shows in London and that was amazing. I prefer him singing his own songs like The Beautiful Ones though, when he sang that in the main arena at the O2 on Sept 6th '07 I had tears in my eyes it was simply beautiful.

He's already did "Stand" numerous times & off the top of my head there's one particular version that starts off with him saying "If u don't stand 4 something, you'll fall 4 anything" & it's gives me goose bumps everytime I hear it. It's from a 98' boot if i'm not mistaken. It may be Viva Las Vegas I believe from early 99'.

I would love for him to get a hold of "Amazing" from Aerosmith with Rhonda on Bass, Michael B. on drums with Renato & the man himself on guitar with a solo that makes Joe Perry himself cry!!!!!

i want him to cover a few
i think it would be sexy to do a funk version and breathy vocals on ''bull in the heather'' by sonic youth

or ''if i want to'' by usher

or one of gil-scott herons songs

Funny, I thought of Curtis Mayfield's "Give Me Your Love"...would love to hear him do that.

I've built a wall not to block anyone out, but to see who loves me enough to climb over it.

"Svefn-g-englar", by Sigur Rós. I know he'd have to put more traditional lyrics to it or just howl his way through, but I bet he'd find a way to reinterpret the beauty of this song in a memorable fashion.
