Top ten songs you would like to hear the MMJ cover

[xmascriminal]

Brown Sugar
Sway
Wild Horses
Can't You Hear Me Knocking
You Gotta Move
Bitch
I Got the Blues
Sister Morphine
Dead Flowers
Moonlight Mile

In that order...  ;)

Fully agreed. That would be the most amazing thing ever.

[Murph]

Raspberry Beret by Prince.  Ill think of the rest later.

[Ruckus]

phish "farmhouse"
a perfect circle "3 libras"

Phish is 1 of my favorite bands, but if those are your 2 wishful choices, you should have you forum card suspended..seriously  :-/

Id rather hear them cover Ace of Base than either of those....seriously

[NoVa_NoLa]

Dancin' In the Streets -- either the original or Bowie/Jagger version.
Bang a Gong -- T.Rex
Pale Shelter -- Tears for Fears
Take Me to the River -- any version

...5-10 later  :)

I was about 6 shots deep on Early Times when I replied to that  :) and was chillaxed to the fullest, broheim, but those just struck me as very odd songs you would want to hear them play, and I like Phish just about as much as MMJ.

Id rather hear the play I Saw The Sign....seriously  :D

I really wanted them to play Will2k by Will Smith on New Years Eve-  that would have rocked socks

[lazybones]

On the Border and One of these Nights by the Eagles.  The falsetto in the latter always reminds me of Jim.  Oh, and the entire Cure Album- Kiss me, Kiss me, Kiss me.  Great Album imo and I think the songs would translate very well.  Give it a listen if you haven't.

[lazybones]

I'd also like hear a rocking Sugar Magnolia (GD) next NYE.  Jim also said he do "Brown Eyed Women" when asked what GD song he'd cover.  I think they'd do it justice to say the least.   I ablsolutley love their version of The Bands "It Makes no Difference"  Those songs have a very similar emotional tone.

'I Dont Want To Talk About It' by Crazy Horse.  Although Danny Whitten's voice on the original is one of the most heartbreaking vocal performances committed to tape, I'd love to hear Jim's take on this song.

Another one would be 'A House Is Not A Motel' by Love.  Dueling guitar solo at the end would be manic...

[Isobella]

"When Will You Come" Galaxie 500
"Please Don't Take MY Sunshine" Sparklehorse
"Astronaut" Luna
"The Fleecing" Pedro the Lion
"Snow" Pernice Brothers

[folieadeux322]

Dylan - Boots of Spanish Leather
Cheap Trick - I Want You to Want Me
Radiohead - Fake Plastic Trees
Richard Thompson - 1952 Black Vincent Lightning  
Cher - Gypsies, Tramps, and Thieves
The Band - Rockin' Chair
Beach Boys - Sloop John B
Built to Spill - Twin Falls
The Boss - Land of Hopes and Dreams

These are just songs I love that popped into my head. After looking back at the list I think they could kill any of these songs.

[Laid Low]

Guess I'm gonna have to turn in my "Forum Card" because my wishlist is a little different than yours....ha yeah right.

Doesn't Jim always say it's a goal of the band to prove to people that all music really isn't that different than people think it is.

I think that mmj playing 3 libra's live with like a full orchestra backing them would be BAD ASS and if you don't agree with me then maybe you should turn in your forum card?

[the sun and moon]

I really really really really want to hear "I'm On Fire" again. Really. They're covered it before, but they need to do it again.

[AMightyCaporal]

Poor places- by Wilco

[Soulshine]

Crying- TVOTR
Go Or Go Ahead- Rufus Wainwright

[coupon]

"40" U2

[Bumbeli]

I'd like to hear them cover "Stuck inside the mobile with the memphis blues again" or "I'm not there", both by Dylan. I enjoy JJ perfomance of Going to acuapulco on the I'm not there OST, so I think it might work with other Dylan songs as well.
Other songs would be:
Led Zeppelin's "Immigrant Song" maybe, "Like Hurricane" or "Harvest Moon" by Neil Young, something by Pearl Jam, preferaby something that rocks and Pink Floyd's Comfortably Numb.
I don't know if they would fit, but those are some of the songs I'd like to hear them play.

[Ruckus]

Why not ;)

City of Immigrants - Steve Earle
Penny on the Train Tracks - Ben Kweller
Mr. Jones -  Counting Crows
Purple Toupee - They Might Be Giants
Pancho and Lefty - Willie and Merle
Aiesha - ABC
