William Shatner- Choose a Prince song for him to cover

I've heard him do "lucy in the sky with diamonds", "Mr. Tambourine man", and the Classic "Rocket man". I would love him to do a cover of "When doves cry", I can just hear him now singing in his Captain Kirk voice "dig if you will picture of you and I engaged in a kiss". I could even imagine him doing "Arms of Orion"with Elton John. Well those are my picks, whats yours????

Shatner would have a very limited vocal range I think. He couldn't pull alot of Prince's songs off very well.



So, I would pick a song like "Sugar Walls" or "Nasty Girls"

Yes, you dick, that's the premise which makes this thread so hysterical.

You will have second thoughts!!

You should listen to Sheena Easton "Sugar Walls" sometime to refresh your memory. Sheena Easton is an exceptionally good vocalist. Many singers would have a difficult time competing with her vocals on a technical level (pitch, clarity, range). This is more than evident if one listens to even a portion of her recorded music catalog. Even "Sugar Walls". The same argument cannot be made of Vanity's performance of "Nasty Girls".

Sheena Easton is a terrific vocalist. But Sugar walls didn't demand too much from her talents. It would have been nice to see Sheena give a stab at "Nothing Compares 2 U"
