-It would be wonderful to hear him interpret 'TRUE COLORS' by CYNDI LAUPER.
-I'd love to hear/see him one day play/perform GLAMOROUS LIFE, which he gave to SHEILA E.
-Totally off kilter but... What would he do with U2's IN THE NAME OF LOVE?
I could see this with a giant choir accapella behind his naked leads/vocals for next Martin Luther King day (or another further down the road).

I don't care for him doing covers mostly but when he did while my guitar gently weeps....I practically wept! that was AWESOME. So I think I like it when he covers something of a "classic" it's always impressive to me.
like Joni's case of you..that's a good one even if just a smidgen of the original.
"not a fan" falloff yeah...ok
