Okay, it's time to REALLY let the creative stuff flow.

If you could pair an unlikely artist with an unlikely song, what would it be?

I stole this idea from The Gourds of Austin, TX. They do a great country cover of Snoop Dogg's "Gin and Juice," and they also do a country version of Bowie's "Ziggy Stardust."

Merle Haggard
Lynyrd Skynyrd's "Gimme Back My Bullets"

The Band with Levon Helm
Iggy & the Stooges' "Search & Destroy"

John Prine
Devo's "Mongoloid"

Woody Guthrie
Deep Purple's "My Woman from Tokyo"

Buck Owens
Wang Chung's "Dance Hall Days"

There's a great program down here called Andrew Denton's Musical Challenge, which is based on exactly that premise. We're heard the Wiggles do A Long Way to the Top and Walk on the Wild Side, we've seen Willie Nelson do Smells like Teen Spirit, we've seen Something for Kate doing Genie in a Bottle. Other good ones were
The Superjesus - You Can't Stop The Music
Human Nature - T.N.T
Barenaked Ladies - When Doves Cry
Alex Lloyd - Mysterious Ways
Diesel - Sometimes When We Touch
Spiderbait - Jive Talkin'

It's a hilarious CD from a great radio show

hehe, i think it'd be funny to hear Van Morrison or Bon Dylan or even Willie Nelson do "Damn it feels good to be a gangsta" by Ghetto Boys. or...oh, i wish Tiny Tim were still alive. THAT would be funny.
