Ok, cool. If this is to be inclusive as such, then the song choice for covers need to take this into consideration, as hinted at with 12-bar blues and the Beatles.
May I make a recommendation? I think "And I Love Her" by the Beatles would be a good candidate. It has a manageable tempo, the guitar parts are easy, and it lends to allowing for expanding of the song and inserting other instrumentation thanks in part to its simplicity. We can take a lot of creative control over this song if we wanted to.
What do you think? A good test/experiment piece at least, no?
