jdmel Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 Although Wilco hasn't really been playing as many covers lately... Listening to the remastered Beatles albums, I'd love to hear them take on Dear Prudence. I think it would be incredible Jeff's cracking vocals and Nels flying in on guitar. Any other Beatles songs or classic rock songs you would like to see Wilco cover?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sparky speaks Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 I always thought George Harrison's "What is Life" sounded like a song Wilco could do with the Total Pros. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kevan Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 What would KILL at ANY show, especially Wilco, would be Sun King -through- She Came in Through the Bathroom Window from Abbey Road. Can you imagine!? Listen to that tonight and tell me that wouldn't blow your mind. Man! I'm playing it in my HEAD and I'm inspired... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
English St Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 I love Tweedy doing I'm Only Sleeping. Get Back would be pretty cool. I'd also love to hear Nels take on A Hard Days Night. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

HungryHippo Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 The Continuing Story of Bungalow Bill get Nels to yell out, "all the children sing!" in a high pitched voice. that part of the song always cracks me up for some reason. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Mr. Kinsley Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 I know this isn't a Beatles-proper song, but I've always thought it'd be cool if when they hit the "My Sweet Lord" section of You Never Know that they actually segue (sp?) into actually playing a couple of bars of My Sweet Lord, then seemlessly go right back into You Never Know.

zebra Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 Every time I hear, "A Day In The Life", I think of how I wish I could hear Wilco play it. Great thread. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

cryptique Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 "I Want You" It's not even close to being one of my favorite Beatles songs, but I would love to hear what Wilco could do with this one onstage. I can imagine Glenn launching into a total freakout. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sweet Papa Crimbo Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 I think the three guitar front would be a nice match for Get Back Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Robby Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 I would love to see what Nels could do with George's Art Of Dying.Poor Places always reminded me of A Day In The Life.How about them reaching further back into the Beatles catalogue and cover I'll Be Back, No Reply or It's Only Love? Actually I would love to hear Wilco cover Loose Fur's Hey Chicken Quote Link to post Share on other sites

barbkm Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 Happiness is a Warm GunIt's All Too Much I totally agree with It All to Much! (My fav. Beatle song). How About I Want You -- Jeff, Nels and Pat on the solo --- oooooh, I'm getting chills just thinking about it! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mountain bed Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 A Day In The Life would be an obvious (and perfect) choice. Nels would KILL on the end part. Cry Baby Cry would be awesome as well. Lots of room for soft/loud dynamics there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
