I suggested a couple of Dylan tracks a few days ago on the guestbook, and I also like the idea of 'Unchained Melody' which a few people have suggested. 'Because the Night' would be a great cover too, but the best Bruce Springsteen track I can think of is 'Thunder Road' - an acoustic version with Steve's voice would sound amazing.

After reading Steves diary entry of 11/11 and watching the youtube clip, I would like to put forward the song 'The green fields of France' by the Fureys as a contender for his new album cover version. Without doubt a most emotional and moving song. Check it out please.

Kinks songs that I think Steve could cover quite excellently would include "Somebody Stole My Car" (a hidden gem), "Now And Then", "Shangri La" or "I'm Not Like Everybody Else".

And probably many more

Oh what about In my Life ! The Beatles or Girl ? or any thing from the Beatles for that matter ! I'm swanning around U Tube !

I'd love to hear Steve cover Marc Bolan's 'Dandy in the Underworld' but I have a strong feeling (maybe wrong of course) that Steve will never do a Bolan song, even though they were great mates.

My suggestions are (hope it's not too late):-
A Rainy night in soho - The Pogues. A beautiful song.
True love ways - Buddy Holly.
I threw it all away - Bob Dylan (the 'Hard Rain' version).
