    Cheers!

    I guess I should have checked to see whether they'd played. I just assumed they hadn't.

    Well even more reason for them to play it then! It ought to be done more often than every few years. They should definitely play it at Wembley this year!

    I would love to see them do some Nina Simone, specially the following song: Got Life.

    (some lyrics might have to be changed a bit, maybe the "I got my boobies" part :D )

    Ain't got no home, ain't got no shoes
    Ain't got no money, ain't got no class
    Ain't got no skirts, ain't got no sweaters
    Ain't got no perfume, ain't got no beard
    Ain't got no mind

    Ain't got no mother, ain't got no culture
    Ain't got no friends, ain't got no schooling
    Ain't got no love, ain't got no name
    Ain't got no ticket, ain't got no token
    Ain't got no God

    What have I got?
    Why am I alive anyway?
    Yeah, what have I got?
    Nobody can take away

    I got my hair, I got my head
    I got my brains, I got my ears
    I got my eyes, I got my nose
    I got my mouth, I got my smile

    I got my tongue, I got my chin
    I got my neck, I got my boobs
    I got my heart, I got my soul
    I got my back, I got my sex

    I got my arms, I got my hands
    I got my fingers, Got my legs
    I got my feet, I got my toes
    I got my liver, Got my blood

    I've got life, I've got my freedom
    I've got the life

    I got a headache, and toothache,
    And bad times too like you,
    I got my hair, I got my head
    I got my brains, I got my ears
    I got my eyes, I got my nose
    I got my mouth, I got my smile

    I got my tongue, I got my chin
    I got my neck, I got my boobies
    I got my heart, I got my soul
    I got my back, I got my sex

    I got my arms, I got my hands
    I got my fingers, Got my legs
    I got my feet, I got my toes
    I got my liver, Got my blood

    I've got life, I've got my freedom
    I've got life, I'm gonna keep it
    I've got life, I'm gonna keep it


    I think it's a very positive song, I can def imagine Eddie singing it
    y la banda de Guille... cuando toca?

    It's okay, It's okay
    You don't have to run and hide away

    Damn, you mentioned House of the Rising Sun. I wanted to say it first:(. I love that song to death. Would definitely rock, and be fun for Boom

    Some cool tracks already mentioned, would love to see them play :

    Lost in the flood - springsteen - this would suit the band sooooo much !!!
    Moonchild - rolling stones
    Behind blue eyes - who - although i'm sure they must have played this before.

    Peace.

    Have they ever covered The Weight from The Band??? That's one of my favourite songs...

    I'd also imagine Ed would sing 'don't cry' beautifully :o

    I'd love to hear them do an Elvis Costello song. Maybe "Oliver's Army" or "Radio Radio".
    one foot in the door
    the other foot in the gutter
    sweet smell that they adore
    I think I'd rather smother
