Just a dream..

Unforgettable by Nat king cole
And
I can't get no satisfaction by the Rolling Stones or Otis Redding.
To be honest, I forget what the Stones version sounds like. I just remember i liked it. lol

For his duet with Kate Bush, which is very good, check out her "The Red Shoes" album.

I'd like more Jimi H, some Abba, 'Round Midnight (Thelonius Monk) and anything by Gershwin (eg Someone To Watch Over Me) if we're talking earlier works (pre-1970's)
