The best covers never made.

So, I was driving home from work this morning, and a thought popped into my head, "I wonder what Sexy M.F. would sound like, sung by Adele?" The wheels starting turning and I began to wonder about how that would work. A stripped down, slow version of Sexy M.F sung by a woman with an incredible voice could well be one of the greatest things in the history of music.

I continued thinking, and began to wonder what other covers people might like to see? Ones where the arrangements are changed around, songs slowed down when they're originally dance tracks, and vice versa. Any ideas?

I would love to hear him do a cover of Teena Marie's "U So Heavy"...

If it breaks when it bends, U better not put it in!

I would love to hear Prince, and band, do a live cover of 'Back In Black' by AC/DC. Everytime I hear that song I can see P putting his raw funky rock edge to it. His guitar solo to this song would be mind blowing for sure.

I heard sexy MF performed in London a few years back at a Prince night. Performed by british artist Z-Star. No recording I know of, but boy did she put the funk into it and tore the roof off with it! Magic night it was. incedently she's slowly getting quite a good career together

on recent form it's only a matter of time before he gives sexy mf that treatment anyways. then he'll try and convince us it was always intended to be a tender ballad like he's doing with little red corvette. disbelief

don't play me...i'm over 30 and i DO smoke weed....
