Live to Tell- Madonna

I'm Not Like Everybody Else - Kinks
Dance Me to the End of Love - L. Cohen

If he was going to do a Madonna song, then a cover of "You'll See" would be great. That song is just crying out for a version with EC giving it the full "I want you"esque sneer treatment.

Posting sound files to youtube is still beyond me so maybe someone could transfer Hopelessly Devoted To You - earlier in this thread - for wider listening pleasure?

I like those suggestions, I see it too :) A timely bump for this thread with a solo tour looming. I'm wondering what surprises we could be in for as well:) Hope this is being noted ;)
