I rekon if Sick Puppies did a cover of "I Wear My Sunglasses at Night" it would sound amazing. I heard an Australian artist do a few lines for kicks on the radio (the lead singer from Something for Kate) and it sounded cool.

The song is good, just needs less 80's influence.

Let me first start off by saying that you guys are so crazy!....That picture is so funny. Every time I think about it, I can't stop laughing

I have a couple songs I think the Pups could do:

RHCP - Scar Tissue, Give it Away
Silverchair - Undeicided
The Used - Noise and Kisses

That's just me I think that they could rip those songs up. And plus they're my favorite bands/songs so it would be nice to hear them do those songs especially Scar Tissue. If they did Scar Tissuse, I'd be happy as a lark (as my mom would say)

[Jeff]

Kashmir-Led Zeppelin
Land of Confusion- Genesis (Has a nice bass riff throughout)

[Rose]

I wanna hear Karma Police by Radiohead. Just because My dad loves Radiohead and hates SP and I know that they would do an amazing cover and at least I would be allowed to blast that.

[Catherine]

Man this list would go on forever... Uhmmm maybe Change by Deftones... But what I REALLY would like would be a guest singer (not really sure about the correct terminology here...) with someone like...Halestorm, three days grace or breaking benjamin. Would be so awesome

[tbritting]

Think it would be awesome to hear them do a cover of Prince's Darling Nikki. That would be so funny

[Jeff]

I was thinking
HIGH VOLTAGE by ACDC would be a fun one too...They could jam in the middle and allow Emma to groove a little on the bass...

[TheEmptyAutumn999]

I Think that they should Cover:

Kashmir - Led Zepplin
Communication Breakdown - Led Zepplin
Fortunate Son - Creedance Clearwater Revival
The Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny - Lemon Demon
Surfin' Bird - Trashmen
Family Tradition - Senses Fail
Can't Be Saved - Senses Fail

[TheEmptyAutumn999]

They should cover:
SURFIN' BIRD - TRASHMEN!!!!

[DXCrue]

Woah, lots of Silverchair love here! Not that, that's a bad thing
Now covers that I think would just kick all kinds of ass done by the Sick Puppies:

Nirvana: "Something In The Way" Shim's got that Kurt Cobain-esque growl that could bring this to life

Alice Cooper: "Eighteen" I'd love to see there interpertation of a bluesy but reblious number. Plus, there's no such thing as a bad Alice Cooper song.

And just because I think it would be hilarious to pull this off on stage.

Men At Work: "Overkill" or to really send it home " Land Down Under"

Tenacious D did a funny as hell acoustic cover of Ausie bands and Men at Work came up. Am the only one who thinks it'd be awseome? lol

My dad brought this song to my attention. It'd be kinda neat I think. Talkin about their roadies.



Here is the lyrics..they'd need to be tweaked a little because it doesn't completely fit but pretty close.

Now the seats are all empty
Let the roadies take the stage
Pack it up and tear it down
They're the first to come and the last to leave
Working for that minimum wage
They'll set it up in another town
Tonight the people were so fine
They waited there in line
And when they got up on their feet,
They made the show, and that was sweet,
But I can hear the sound of slamming doors and folding chairs
and that's a sound they'll never know

Now roll them cases and lift them amps
and haul them truses up and get'um up them ramps
'Cause when it comes to moving me,
you know you guys are the champs
but when that last guitar's been packed away,
you know that I still want to play.
So just make sure you got it all set to go
before you come for my piano

But the band's on the bus,
and they're waiting to go.
We gotta drive all night
And do the show in Chicago... or Detroit.
I don't know, we do so many shows in a row.
And these towns all look the same.
we just pass the time in the hotel rooms
and wander around backstage.
Till those lights come up, and we hear that crowd,
and we remember why we came.

Now we got country and western on the bus,
R & B, we got disco in 8-tracks and casettes in stereo
We've got rural scenes and magazines
And we've got truckers on CB
We got Richard Pryor on the video
We've got time to think of the ones we love
While the miles roll away
but the only time that seems too short is the time that we get to play
People you've got the power over what we do
You can sit there and wait
or you can pull us through.
Come along, sing this song
You know that you can't go wrong
'Cause when that mornin' sun comes beating down
you're gonna wake up in your town
But we'll be scheduled to appear
a thousand miles away from here

People stay just a little bit longer
We want to play -- just a little bit longer
Now the promoter don't mind
And the union don't mind
If we take a little time
And we leave it all behind and sing
One more song
Oh won’t you stay just a little bit longer
Please, please, please say you will
Say you will

Oh won’t you stay just a little bit longer
Oh please, please stay just a little bit more

Now the promoter don’t mind
And the roadies don’t mind
If we take a little time
And we leave this all behind and sing
One more song

"Let me hear you scream" - by Ozzy Osbourne. i think he's the original maker of the song and just didnt cover it but not for sure. lyrics... Let me hear you scream!

I'm black and blue, beat up, but still I take the blows;
'Cause all I need is blood and sweat and skin and bones!

I'll take this rage,
Rattle your cage,
Nobody said it's easy!
It's do or die,
Only the strong survive!

Get ready for the last stand!
Get ready, I'm your hangman!

Let me hear you scream like you want it!
Let me hear you yell like you mean it!
If you're gonna go down:
Go loud!
Go strong!
Go proud!
Go on!
Go hard or go home!
Let me hear you-
(Let me hear you-)
Let me hear you-
(Let me hear you-)
Let me hear you scream!

I'll pull you up and push you right back in your place!
I'll take you down and wipe that smile right off your face!

I'll watch you break,
Your mine to take,
Don't blink; you just might miss it!
It's all or nothing,
Nowhere left to run!

Are you ready for the last fight!
Get ready with the war cry!

Let me hear you scream like you want it!
Let me hear you yell like you mean it!
If you're gonna go down:
Go loud!
Go strong!
Go proud!
Go on!
Go hard or go home!
Let me hear you-
(Let me hear you-)
Let me hear you-
(Let me hear you-)
Let me hear you scream!

[Guitar Solo]

Let me hear you scream like you want it!
Let me hear you yell like you mean it!
If you're gonna go down:
Go loud!
Go strong!
Go proud!
Go on!
Go hard or go home!

Let me hear you scream like you want it!
Let me hear you yell like you mean it!
If you're gonna go down:
Go loud!
Go strong!
Go proud!
Go on!
Go hard or go home!
Let me hear you-
(Let me hear you-)
Let me hear you-
(Let me hear you-)
Let me hear you scream!

It would be interesting if musically-inclined regional Ambassadors write songs (submit video of with tabs/lyrics) and Sick Puppies play their perception of an original song written by a fan in the area of the concert.

This could help out up-and-coming musicians to have such an awesome band playing their song... plus adds to the relationship that Sick Puppies has with its biggest fans and certainly lets the hometown audience have a moment to cheer on a hometown moment.
