You're Beautiful
It would be mighty interesting to hear Dr. Teeth's gravelly voice singing a song made popular by such a high-pitched... well, sissy boy.

(I assume you mean the James Blunt song... not that I know any other songs with that title, but I would assume that there were.)

This is a bit more modern, but I always thought that they would sound cool playing Dashboard, by Modest Mouse for some weird reason.

I could see them doing a few Fraggle Rock songs, actually...That would be so cool! They could make an entire album, "Mayhem does Fraggles" XD

I also see them doing Kuchibiru Kara Romantica by AAA...It's Japanese, but the style is right.
And then I could see Floyd doing Bittersweet by Apocalyptica. I don't know if the style's exactly right, but I thought of him the second I heard it.

As the World Falls Down -- sung by Janice and Floyd (I'd have it as a duet)

My Heart Will Go On -- I would like to see the EM band try to do this as a ballad, complain that it's too long/sappy, and change it to an upbeat rock song :big_grin:

I actually thought that Mr. Jones one was a good idea. Some of their covers border on parody.

I think they'd do a great job at covering some Willie Nelson. I think that the voice and music would work with any of his songs.

I would be curious to see the Mayhem take on:

The Pixies: "Alec Eiffel" (I would like to see a non-Mayhem Muppets skit with "Where is My Mind?")
The Police: "Synchronicity II"
Tom Waits: "Earth Died Screaming" (ol' Dr. Teeth already sounds a bit like Tom)
Steve Earle: "Hometown Blues"

YES! That is more like it...

Let's hear them do something "Dangerous"
Dave Matthews is not dangerous! Hahahaha...

How about some Guns N' Roses (Welcome to the Jungle)...

They need to rock, not rock you to sleep!
