What songs would you love to hear Eisley cover?



I would really like to hear the girls sing Death Cab For Cutie's "Transatlanticism."

Stacy and Sherri would have to play the tom tom parts.

Maybe "Home" by the Smashing Pumpkins.

There is this part that goes, "love is everything I want" that I can hear the girls singing so nicely. Plus, the song has got really pretty, yet kinda eerie, music to it.

Like mentioned, The Beatles ... I'd like to hear their take on some NFG songs, actually. Stuff in that vein. Paramore and TBS. That would be interesting.

That would be SOOOOO MUCH HOTTER than Jonny and Ed doing it!

I forget if one of them cuts out and plays a guitar solo, or if Thom does all the work. If there are two guitars during the outro, then Sherri should stay on guitar the whole time, and Chauntelle should play tom toms until the solo and then switch.

Jonny keeps his Tele on his back for the first two thirds of the song, but does the solo just before the bridge and plays through to the end. So yeah, I'm thinking Sherri on guitar and Stacy (she can sing while she drums) and Chauntelle on toms, until it's badass solo time when Chauntelle swings the Frankenstrat back around and melts our faces.

I can't decide if that would be better than "Let Down" or not.

Side note--a totally random person just sent me a message on Facebook stating "Ed wrote the riff to 'Street Spirit'." And I had to go back through everything I've posted about Radiohead on Facebook until I found what I said on the event page for the In Rainbows release, where I said that the best thing Ed ever did was the outro to "Nude," which got cut from the album version, and I'm not sure what purpose he serves now.

The Cardigans - Lovefool
Sixpence NtR - Kiss Me

Bjork - All is Full of Love, Possibly Maybe (These don't really need to be redone but it'd be cool since they/I like Bjork so much)
Julee Cruise - The World Spins, Rockin' Back Inside My Heart (These are just some weird lovely songs I'd like to hear them cover)

Kansas - Dust in the Wind
Queen - Bohemian Rhapsody (This would be interesting, I think they could pull it off and it'd be great hehe)

Beatles - Nowhere Man (I know they could do this one justice)

Roy Orbison - Only the Lonely, Crying

I just was thinking about this the other day on how rad it would be.

The Prophecy - Broken.

sherri can sing the clean vocals and stacy can sing the growling parts (actually sing the parts, not growl)

14 minutes of pure indie doom!

I always really like it when bands do covers that are completely on the opposite end of their genre.

I think they should cover some big pop song! They have now qualms about liking pop music

Alanis did it (My Humps)...Switchfoot did it (Crazy in Love)...Joss Stone (Fall in love with a girl/boy)...Mandy Moore added hers in her shows (Umbrella) Okay enough examples....

Thing is, I have no idea what song! What's big/catchy today on the radio?? They should do that or something that was big and catchy in the 90s (old enough, but not too old). For some reason Mariah Carey keeps popping in my head. Laughing

I agree that Björk and The Beatles covers would sound really cool, but for some reason I've always wanted to hear Eisley and Midlake cover one of each other's songs.

I'd like them to cover many of the bands mentioned before and Fleetwood Mac. Yes. Probably Rhiannon.
