By-and-large, I'm going for the "I-never-would've-expected-them-to-cover-this" angle. And I'm not letting a small little thing like gender perspective stop me from reccommending really great songs that y'all could do good things with -- play with the pronouns if you have to ("pronoun trouble!" tm Daffy Duck) I have a slight bias towards country here-- i really like it when artists are able to successfully trasnlate country into r&b and vice versa.

03. "I Get Ideas" - according to wikipedia: The music is a 1927 tango-canción (tango with lyrics) called "Adios, Muchachos", composed by Argentinian Julio Cesar Sanders (often credited in the U.S. as "Lenny Sanders"). The English lyric (which has nothing to do with the original Spanish lyric by Cesar Felipe Vedani) is by Dorcas Cochran, and was published in 1951.
