Oo, that'd be fun

[savemeimdtba]

I agree with "God Only Knows" - that would be awesome.

"Hallelujah" - Leonard Cohen
"Party Like a Rockstar" - heh, it would be amusing

[gogonutz]

Or they should just go back to doing "Drop It Like It's Hot"

I'd actually love to see them cover anything by Cash, not just ROF. Folsom Prison Blues would be really awesome.

Yeah, I suggested "Ive Been Everywhere" but Jason would be too confused with all the geographical names

ohh 'Layla' or 'Iris' would be pretty fucking amazing....

Koen, a lot of the ones you mentioned I have a hard time hearing, but I can see where Jason's voice would do well with them

Any Sting song would be pretty awesome
