if Frida could cover any song
If Frida could cover any songs, what's your choices.
For me:
a whiter shade of pale (procol harum);
i walk with you mama (benny and bjôrn);
woman in love (streisand)

:-) Gunnar

I completely agree!

How wonderful would it be to hear Frida sing classic songs like Cry Me A River and I'm A Fool To Want You...

Frida doing covers of Jazzy type stuff would be good

Also Johnny says Marlene Dietrich covers to which I agree with.

Woman In Love (Barbra Streisand) would be a good song for Frida to cover.

'stormy weather' is a song i would love to hear her sing

Re: if Frida could cover any song

merton - 09.06.2007, 22:05

She could easily do Enya type tracks. She's got the voice, but also the heart and soul for it.

Sacrilege? I think it's not "Agnetha's" IITYECYM. She covered it too. :wink:

Re: if Frida could cover any song

Toni - 10.06.2007, 08:32

ItŽs good to have some training from the Games-sector. So I know what "IITYECYM" is. :wink:

"Tammy" - Debbie Reynolds

"As Tiers Go By" - Rolling Stones

"All Kinds Of Everything" - Dana

and I agree with "The Winner Takes It All". It would sound amazing with FridaŽs voice. She even wanted to sing the ABBA song 1980.

"I close my eyes and count to ten" by Dusty Springfield,

"Both sides, now" by Joni Mitchell,

"Kocham Cię, życie" by Edyta Geppert.

This is my list of April covers :-)

Emmanuelle - 20.04.2008, 04:21

Since Frida's voice shares many characteristics with Karen Carpenter's, that wouldn't be too much of a stretch if she covered just about any Carpenters songs. She would convey the same wonderful warm feeling Karen Carpenter did.
Actually she could do an album of just Carpenters covers. Wheee !

Re: if Frida could cover any song

Toni - 20.04.2008, 08:12

"Gomenasai" from Tatu

"Manic Monday" from Bangles

"Heal The Pain" from George Michael

"Live To Tell" from Madonna

olblackcat - 11.05.2008, 00:35

How about some great old tunes?

Sing Me Back Home (Before I Die) by Merle Haggard - I'll probably die of emotion if I hear Frida covering this song.

Sixteen Tons

Stand by Your Man by Tammy Wynette

Lonely Street by Willie Nelson

If You Could Read My Mind by Gordon Lightfoot

...and some more modern stuff

House of the Rising Sun by Animals

Child in Time by Deep Purple - I'd love to hear her personal interpretation of this classic.

but my most cherished dream is still to hear a jazz-standards album.....

Wow! Looks like you're into rock too :wink:

Btw, Jon Lord said that he would love to hear Frida sing Child in Time. But no Dancing Queen from his part, though...

Sealed With A Kiss would sound great with Frida

I reckon If she did Toni both versions would be brilliant, I wouldn't say one would be better than the other, I think Fridas voice would really make that particular track sound fantastic.

I have always wanted Frida to cover Barbra Striesands People who Need People.

i have the jazzy version of 'i'm not that girl' by julia murney on her album (which i love) and as both julia and frida have lower voices, i would LOVE to hear frida singing that, in a similar version

The title of the topic is "If Frida could cover any song"

I say she could cover ANY song. :D (me being sooo biased :lol: )

Seriously, I would love to have heard her on a few Rolling Stones song. I am a rock freak too.

And this is great idea - to have Frida in such music-hall. "Don't cry for me Argentina" - the truth is she would sing it great!
