I love the idea of a mega-star tribute <grin> So.. along the lines of your suggestions perhaps Elton John could return the favour and cover something like "The Man with the child in his eyes" and Annie Lennox could easily slot in, perhaps singing RubberBand Girl? Prince should certainly cover something too, perhaps Running Up That Hill (Deal with God) religion being something hes interested in.. or maybe The Big Sky. Tori Amos on Wuthering Heights? Babooshka?? Neneh Cherry on Cloudbusting? Marcella Detroit on WH or WOW? And Wendy Matthews would be great on Running Up That Hill or Hounds Of Love. BTW Wendy Matthews fourth album (the name of which escapes me right now) will be out within the next 6-8weeks maybe sooner. A single from the album has already been released and is getting good airplay here (Perth, Western Australia) The lady has an excellent voice :) > Seriously, my fave coupling would have been Jeff Buckley doing > possibly > This Woman's Work or The Kick Inside.
