What Other Artist Song Would You Like To Hear Prince Perform?

I think Curtis Mayfield's People Get Ready
would be a good song for Prince. I would love to
hear him sing this song.

None that I can think of. I'd quite like him to do more collaborations, and have someone else produce or remix him once in a while but I really think that one of his great strengths is his songwriting ability and I just can't think of other artists or writers who I think he really must record.

Yeah, I think he would give "What's Going On" a nice Jazzy feel. and obviously he has the voice for it.

TRON

I'd like to hear him do something funky by Bowie like-
"Golden Years"
"The Secret Life of Arabia"
"Fascination"
"Red Money"
"DJ"

or cover something by one of his contemporaries instead of his influences. something like "Bad" by U2 or "Age of Consent" by New Order. I wish he would cover more rock songs. Especially alternative/modern rock. I'd love to hear him do a Doors cover as well. Any of their songs would do.

I'd like to see Prince do some lead solos from Parliament/Funkadelic; like the solo in Knee Deep, the double solo off of the PFunk Allstar Album, etc.! Those were some Badd Lead Parts!
