If Perry went and did covers...

Just for sheer morbid curiosity I'd buy an album of him making farm animal noises.

Would love to hear him do covers of some of my R&B faves, Sam Cook, Marvin Gaye, Jackie Wilson - besides the hit-and-run versions of "Cupid" and "Bring it on home" (w/JBJ)

We all know that Sam Cooke was one of his major influences (they even share the same birthday) - however, I would love to hear him do Marvin Gaye's "Sexual Healing" - and Ben E. King's "Stand By Me" (which Marvin Gaye did a cover of also)

I don't know if I would like just a bunch of mushy love songs - I would prefer him to be more true to his roots ..... if he enjoys it, then probably we would enjoy it as well.

Great quesiton.

Absolute DITTO!! You saved me some typing Cat.

(but I'd kinda like to hear him sing Babe)

What about an album of Ray Stevens cover songs? He could kick it off with a Sam Cooke inspired rendition of "Mississippi Squirrel Revival."


Steve: "Oh, when the squirrel went beserk, in the first self righteous church....."
