Yeah, that would be rad. It would really bring out Nessa's dark, melancholic side

I would chose Hear Comes the Sun by the Beatles, or pianoman by billy joel.

And now you look at me
And see what I've known for so long
It's sad that you can be
So lovely, yet so wrong

Couldn't really think of any myself (maybe My Immortal?) but some of the suggestions on here are brilliant, I'd love to hear covers of Mad World and How Soon Is Now? (I can actually hear her singing this one, I know that sounds stupid but It would really suit her style). For a Tori Amos cover, I think a VC version of Bells For Her would be excellent :D

I think a cover from Vanessa would probably be best based somewhere between that and Bob Dylan's original.

Of interesting note, Avril Lavigne has covered this song.  Has anyone else here heard it?

ew. vanessa should NOT cover alicia keys songs. that's just wrong. it's got to be older stuff...the beatles would be really left field for vanessa. i dunno. maybe 'satisfaction' by rolling stones?


Why are you VC fans always clowning on AK? She my homegirl and can play the hell outta those 88 keys. [And no, I'm not interest in starting any debates on who's more talented; it's a waste of my time and breath, as well as your own, okay?] I won't say who I like more, but I believe that they're both equally talented, just in their own ways. Comparing them is just plain unfair. I guess that's coming from someone who listens to all kinds of music [yours truly].

Anyway, since I'm really familiar with their music, I think the perfect song that VC should cover by AK is 'Dragon Days' [from her sophmore album] b/c the lyrics are very much in Vanessa's league; AK wrote the song by herself. Here are the lyrics and see for yourself. No copyright infringement intended.

I don't really like Alicia Keys, but that's just personal taste. She is definitely talented, just not my style. Anyway, most people on this forum don't like lots of the music I like, which is fine... but each to their own  :)

Alicia's and Vanessa's piano style is totally different. Both are great artists.

I love Alicia :)

I agree.  And I personally would rather it be an older song as well.
