1. "How do you mend a broken heart?" (Bee Gee's) - Covered by Al Green... he slew it!!! Listen to this version and you'll never listen to a "singing mouse" again.

2. "Walk on by." (Dionne Warwick) - As done by Issac Hayes on "Hot Buttered Soul". Groundbreaking album, groundbreaking treatment. Still listen to it today.

3. "Georgia on my mind" (Hoagy Carmicheal?) - Ray Charles... when juxtaposed against the flames of the civil rights movement at the time... what more poignant version can you think of?

4. "America the Beautiful" (Traditional) - Ray Charles again brings a song into the church and makes it his own...

5. "A little help from my friends" (Beatles) - Joe Cocker live at Woodstock... yeah I heard the scream...

6. "What's Goin On?" (Marvin Gaye) - Donny Hathaway, "Donny Hathaway Live". Donny on keyboards, Cornell Dupree on guitar, Earl D''ruoen on congas and Willie Weeks on bass... What a rendition.

7. "Gonna Take a Miracle" (unknown) - Laura Nyro and Labelle on the album of the same name. Patty and the girls with Laura doing an old 60's tune as produced by Gamble and Huff!!!!!

8. "Smooth Criminal" (Michael Jackson) - Alien Ant Farm may never have another hit, but they slew the hell out of that tune....

9. " Higher Ground" (Stevie Wonder) - The Red Hot Chili's did this different and did it justice.

10. "Proud Mary" (Creedence & Fogarty) - Ike and Tina Turner!!!! How could nobody list this the mother of all covers?????!!!!!

That's my top ten for the time being...
