Songs we want Phish to cover - cont'd

JOBOOZOSO 12/17/12 6:56 pm

Since it's no longer summer, a new thread is required: http://forum.phish.net/thread.php?thread=1333222600

There are some songs that proclaim out of my car speakers "Phish needs to cover this!!!"

You Enjoy Myself > Vocal Jam > Love City (Moby Remix)

Johnny the Fox meets Jimmy the Weed

Looking Out My Backdoor
I can envision this one featuring Page on keys, with Trey, Mike, and Fish backing him upon acoustic guitars.

Score: 0

Funeral for a Friend/Love Lies Bleeding is my top choice.

Followed by Eminence Front to hear the crowd go nuts.

moonjock from the new animal collectice. i picture mike laying out serious stomping bonbs for the lyrical part, the the song's theme would make a great uptempo trey driven jam.

seriously, i have the whole thing composed in my head and ready to go.

The Christmas Shoes.

The more fun and trivial, the more appealing it is to me for Phish to cover it. The serious songs make me immediately think of the Henrietta treatment.

On that note, I still think "White Horse" by Laid Back (early '80s) would be a kickdonkey funk groove for Phish - or anyone - to cover.

Also, if they go back to Watkins Glen and fail to play the Cannonball Run theme song again, I will seriously throw a hissy fit.

ball.

Damn. I just realized how raw that nerve still is, a year and a half later.

The sting of Coventry not opening with Wang Chung's Everybody Have Fun Tonight pales in comparison.

^this. I have wanted this album covered on Halloween for years now. I do think "Black Man" could be a little awkward though.

Ten Years Gone need to be covered by Phish.

Do You Feel Like We Do, without the talk-box stuff, just a ripping jam instead. I know they've teased it before, but it would be great jammed-out encore.
