| Besides some obvious examples (Yes doing Beatles and Simon & Garfunkel songs; Deep Purple covers in the '60s) I really liked Miles Davis' versions of Michael Jackson's "Human Nature" and Cyndi Lauper's "Time After Time." |

It gets more interesting after the first chorus I think... but I kinda see your point, sounds a little mecanic and calculated ------------- But now my branches suffer And my leaves don't bear the glow They did so long ago |
