Well I'm still stuck on the idea that for his Christmas album him and Melinda Doolittle should remake "Baby Its Cold Outside" :thud:

"IOU" by Lee Greenwood. :awe:

"I just can't smile without you"
-originally by Barry Manilow

or he could serenade Melinda Doolittle with "Mindy"..playoff on "Mandy":p

I would LOVE Elliott to record "The Closer I Get To You" with Alicia Keys...originally recorded by Donny Hathaway & Roberta Flack. I think it would be perfect.

I WAS JUST GONNA TYPE THAT!!!!
and how about Tonight, I Celebrate My Love By Roberta Flack and Peabo Bryson???
Rick1965 - July 31, 2007 10:57 PM (GMT)
I would love to hear him do Baby I Love Your Way...the version by Big Mountain...It was used in the movie Reality Bites and it's a reggae version. He would be awesome!!

that's CRAZY !! LOL.. & yes, I love your other choice too. I've felt for a long time that an Alicia & Elliott collaboration will happen in the not to distant future. ....I looked into my crystal ball..
chloewannabee - August 1, 2007 12:45 PM (GMT)
I have always wanted to hear him sing For All We Know-Donny Hathaway-or anthing at all that Donny did, they're ALL fabulous!
harleywoman - August 1, 2007 01:23 PM (GMT)
There are 2 that come to my mind. Both were done by Clay, but I would love to hear Elliott's versions because I don't believe I've ever heard these songs performed in a soulful way.
Bridge Over Troubled Water
Unchained Melody

For total rhythmic station cred, how about:
Rock Me Tonight (Freddie Jackson)
My, My, My (Johnny Gill)
elliottcrazy - August 1, 2007 03:45 PM (GMT)
Oooooh...'Rock Me Tonight'..now you're talking. Good choice. Elliott would nail it.
I just listened to 'My, My, My' for the first time...holy moly.. :hot: :hot: ..I don't know if I could handle Elliott singing that :thud:

I think that once Elliott started touring he his songs got a lot better. He was able to put more of his heart and soul into the performance. I would like to have him "remake" some of his albumn songs with that new found inner confidence and "voice" so to speak.

Oh I see what you mean.
I just think that even on a bad day Elliott has more soul in his voice than anyone and I think the version of Trainwreck on the cd is perfect.
I didn't mean to be defensive...I must have thought I was on a Katharine Mc Phee site.

You're right.
I guess I am just jealous of everyone who has seen him in concert and I'm sitting here watching U-tube clips of him wishing I had better sound. I want to hear that really amazing raw sound in person or at least on a CD. (Whiter shade of Pale came the closest for me.)
chloewannabee - August 2, 2007 03:16 AM (GMT)
OMIGOD!!!! Whiter Shade Of Pale!!!!!!!!
Listen to it with headphones!!!!!!!!!!

Sign My Name.......Elliott's voice is sooo sexy on this.

Love the Ell and Mel Baby It's Cold Outside idea. I still hope that one day Elliott will release his version of Somebody to Love. I LOVED it when he did it on AI... he rocked!
I think it'd be great if he did one of those duets albums with Melinda and they did a bunch of the Hathaway/Flack duets.
Elliott!fan - August 3, 2007 09:52 AM (GMT)
Donny Hathaway's
I LOVE YOU MORE THAN YOU'LL EVER KNOW. :rocker: :thud: :thud: :thud: :awe: :elliottelliott:
i also dig sign your name + whiter shade of pale..
Elliott sings the hell out of all three.. absolutely brilliant!
would also luv to hear a solo -- Elliott only (no duet) -- version of E belting stevie's Livin for the City
i also really, really luv Donny Hathaway's Givin Up

"If Only For One Night" by Luther Vandross. Elliott would be amazing singing that song. (Especially if he recorded it early in the morning.)

Yeah, I totally agree w/ you guys! All GREAT choices and I too always imagined/hoped an Elliott and Alicia Keys duet.
hip-yamized - August 4, 2007 07:17 AM (GMT)
Elliott and Alicia Keys would be be fantasic. I think Elliott and Roberta Flack should do a duet in honor of Donny Hathaway.
wowhesgood - August 4, 2007 06:03 PM (GMT)
I'd really love thim to release ILYMTYEK, it just takes my breath away. Not a very original choice I know, but honestly, at this point I've decided that whatever Elliott would sing it would be awesome. He's done so many genres so well I'd have a hard time deciding. I'd also love him to sing some Bill Withers.
