If prince would cover any beattles song which one should it be?? I really thought prince kicked ass at the rock and roll hall of fame with his part on "my guitar gently weeps" so that would be my pick. What about u????? (this is a "what if question" so those who do not think prince should do any covers need not reply).

while my guitar would be a good one.

or michelle. i loove that song.

or across the universe.

According 2 The Vault book, its either him or one of his associated artists have covered "Day Tripper"

[b] MIchel my belle.... whith a guitar solo 2!

A Great song would be ...LET IT BE... RELIGIOUS and ALL. Personally, I like Lennon's work and would find it Amazing if he Covered....LUCY IN THE SKY WITh DIAMONDS..I THINK PRINCE would Freakin SCORE doing a REMAKE>>>>

'Revolution'
(the 'rock' version)

yeah that would be a good choice as well.

neontelephone said:

Sorry, I just gotta say "Beatles" not "Beattles"

I'd like to hear him do Strawberry Fields

His falsetto might be good for Baby You're a Rich Man

or I Should Have Known Better

o man. strawberry fields and lucy in the sky would b soo wierd!

hell, "why don't we do it in the road" already sounds like prince covering the beatles.

Sexy Sadie would be a good one.

'And I Love Her' played on the Rhodes with a jazzy guitar noodling away on a quiet-night tip.

He'd probably do 3 continuous songs blending into each other.

StrawberryFields (in his high pitched falsetta), Yellow Submarine (like Starfish and Coffee), and Drive My Car (in the style of The Work Pt.1)

Taxman. It already has a funky bassline, I know P could vamp that one up and make it a smelly jelly.

I am sure he would give the guitar solo a good workout in his version too.

I Am The Walrus - funky as fuck and lead vocals by Camelle

He could do a reunion concert with The Revolution and start the concert with "Revolution".

I Could also see Prince do IMAGINE by Lennon....Being that my Favorite was Lennon see Prince could do yes you are Right Strawberry Fields.Lucy, Imagine..Let It Be. Also, let's see MIND GAMES , Whatever Get's You Through The Night... I'd Love to See him do some Lennon and Beatles Tunes...Would be AWESOME... Here's another song I LOVE HIM TO DO .....A Day In The Life....I READ THE NEWS TODAY...OH BOY....THIS IS THE ONE>>>>>This is PRINCE's NEXT SIGN O THE TIMES on SOCIAL COMMENTARY.....If He did this WOULD GUARANTEE a SMASH I am SURE! Call me Ya Know where I Live Now..I Can start Interning Tommorrow. LOL.

He already wrote a Beatles' song with Paisley Park.

The natural extension would be a remake of Strawberry Fields.

I'd love to hear him do Revolution. Just see how he pulls the scream off at the beginning.

Luv & Peace,

Clubbin' in Mpls/A Night w. Prince[/quote]

Good Day Sunshine would be cool. Always makes me happy, whatever my mood.

"You know My Name"

I'd love to hear John Lennon sing "Paisley Park".

I Want You (She's So Heavy) - one of the greatest songs ever recorded. It'd be hard even for P to live up to that but he could try.

Revolution would also be cool.

I read (I think in RS) that P claimed he'd never heard "While My Guitar" till he was sent the tape to prepare for the Hall of Fame gig. What is that arrogant BS???? What, he called an album "The Black Album" but never heard "The White ALbum"? What, during that Beatles-esque supposedly W&L influenced period of '85-'87, he never listened to arguably their greatest album??? What, as a student of "Musicology" he ignored one of the most ground-breaking, experimental, iconoclastic brilliant pieces of recorded plastic???? Who's he kidding????

It sounds like he was hinting he only listens to Black music, like the Beatles aren't worthy of him devoting time to listen to. What an a-hole!!! What, is he denying their undeniable influence on him, now??? Fuck, his label's called "Paisley Park" for fuck's sake!

Sorry, I guess the memory of that comment got me a bit irate

How is "Let It Be" religious? The line about 'Mother Mary' is about Paul's mother, Mary McCartney. Nothing more, nothing less.

squirrelgrease said:

My choice of song as well. It's funky, with anti-man-in-charge kind of lyrics and it's got
some kick-ass guitar solo's going on.

Prince could rip that up.

Across The Universe and Don't Let Me Down as a double A side!!
