songs you'd like to hear Per or Marie sing

28 replies

This is something i’ve been thinking about for a while and i’d like your take on it.

Personally i would love to hear Marie sing Lovin’ Arms. The version i know is by The Beautiful South but i don’t think its orginally their song, still i’d love to hear Marie sing it.

So over to you.....

Marie to sing ,’ Something to believe in’ by bon jovi.

somethin to believe in?? that would be interesting im big fan of bon jovi.....
what do you think of It’s hard letting you go..by them too??

ow ye, could see them both doin ’two story town’ aswell by them.

dunno what existing songs I would like to hear them sing, but I would love a duet with Marie and Eva Dahlgren... cmon girls! :))

say ti isn’t so!!!!!.....marie singin the highest part in the chorus.....

Yeps,something from Bon Jovi!!
I think they’re great too,and they were “big” at the same time
“Bed of roses” is really nice,c’mon Per,c’mon Marie,suprise us all ;) :p

Voices Carry, by ’Til Tuesday. An oldie, but a goodie. Would suit Marie well. :)

Some soul songs maybe.

River deep, mountain high
Proud mary..

Don’t know!

My songs! :-)

Twisted Sister´s “We´re not gonna take it” sung by Per! ;D

Always of bon jovi!!...per sign the verse while marie sing the chorus

“Something stupid” like Robbie Williams & Nicole Kidman...or Frank Sinatra...(the original)

Is a very good song, dont you? ;P

there’s this dutch girl “Judith”, with a song called “You”...a great song I think...

I would love a marie-version of this one!

here are some lyrics...in fact..all of them ;)
=========================
You see me as the girl next-door
Like you know so many, many more
Just a fish that swims in your direction
And could bring love and affection

But I can’t play the game with you
I know it will only hurt me
I feel the tears in my eyes
Because we have to say goodbye
Looking in the face of love
I’ll never touch it
It will be self-deceit
To think you would stay with me

You think you mean the same to me
But I am afraid and too shy to let you see
To me you’re really someone special
I found in me the learn to haste it
I feel love is bad

But I can’t play the game of love with you
I know it will only hurt me
I feel the tears in my eyes
Because we have to say goodbye
Looking in the face of love
I’ll never touch it
It will be self-deceit
To think you would never leave

Blisters on the soul
Are they my paths, or are they goal
Cause everytime I feel love
Faith … broke it up
Will it ever stop?

But I can’t play the game of love with you
I know it will only hurt me
I feel the tears in my eyes
Because we have to say goodbye
Looking in the face of love
I’ll never touch it
It will be self-deceit
To think you would never leave
======================

Roxette singing Bon Jovi would be a little corny, don’t you think? I mean the songs they’d sing would be from their childhood or youth - not from a few year’s time and not by (quite) a rival act :)
How about Davie Bowie? Starman? I’d love that! :)

@aminalkingdom, the question was songs YOU’d like to hear them sing not what they want to sing

another one of mine is Crowded House, I Feel Possessed or Paul Simon, Diamonds on the Soles of her Shoes

I’d like Marie to sing some blues&jazz songs, like Everytime We Say Goodbye, The Nearness of You etc. (I know she sang that song, but I’d love to listen to it live&fresh again...)
I am waiting for a jazz album from her sooooo much...

@ sfchemist

So I see...David Bowie would still be my choice. I or they, for that matter, wouldn’t like to have BJ or any 90’s act in the setlist. I suppose. :)

Per - Should I stay or should I go?
Don’t your forget about me.
Poison Heart

Marie - something from Shania or from Sheryl Crown.
Without You - Air Supply (Shut up, Mariah!)

Mariah’s Without You is fantastic! She’s so great...Well, maybe I’m not too objective but still..

Marie could do it, too...Just her by the piano. :)

I’d love to hear Marie’s voice in: chiquitita(abba),Feel(R.W.), Hotel California(E.) Nothin’ compares to u(S.O.) Zombie( T . C.) Uninvited( A.M.) Trouble (coldplay), Electrical storm(U2), I’m like a Byrd(n.F.) ...& many many more

Yeah, maybe some ABBA Songs...

Other Songs I don´t know.

It would be interesting to hear a Per and Marie version of Carl Anderson and Gloria Loring’s song ’Friends and Lovers’.

roxette sing En kvinna och en man

Some big classic like “Tin Soldier” of The Small Faces, “Eight Miles High”, “Ballad of Easy Rider” of The Byrds, “You really got me”, “Celluloid Heroes” or “Days” of The Kinks... something 60’s!! :p

By the way, “Nothing compares 2 U” is not a Sinead O’Connor song. The song is Prince’s

yeah but everybody remembers her version

“MmmBop” by Hanson :DD

BRITNEY SPEARS- OOPSSS... I DID IT AGAIN!
It’s a special kind of joke he he he...

Travis sung an unplugged “joke” version of “Baby one more time” :D
Rox could do well... and if people don’t laugh and they don’t do many stupid things like in Travis performance it could sound real :D
