Cover versions: Prince and other cats

What tracks would you like to hear Prince try his hand at - and who would you like to hear have a go at some of his songs.

I would probably wet myself to hear the Mars Volta do some kind of Prince medley - and I don't think its too unimaginable - even thought they are space-prog noodle funkateers I reckon they could hammer Bambi, Computer Blue, Lets Go Crazy or even a whacked out Why You Wanna Treat Me So Bad?

I'd love to see Prince try his hand at any of the following:

Beck (anything off Odelay), Janes Addiction (Been Caught Stealing), Led Zep (I know he's done Whole Lotta Love but it'd be great to hear him do Achilles Last Stand, Kashmir or In My Time of Dying), Radiohead (any - that'd be hilarious!),ahh there's so many.

Anyways, add your own wink

In concert is fine but I don't want to see him do any covers on albums. In concert, I'd like to see him do The Rolling Stones "Miss You" and Earth, Wind, and Fire's "Reasons".
