Default Jovi songs covered?

Hey people, just wondering if anyone knows which Jovi songs have been covered by other bands during live gigs? I know that Coldplay have covered Prayer, but thats about it. Has anyone ever been at a gig, and totally unexpected, the band have started playing a Jovi song? Cos that would rock so much, its untrue!

Keep On Rockin'

Lit and Limp Bizkit did Wanted

Moby did Prayer

Check out the drycounty.com downloads section and under the mp3's you'll find Abduction. They do a really good version of always and if you play guitar it's a perfect song to play to...

Some country artists who've covered them:

Billy Hoffman: I Want You (All I Wanted Was You, title track of his debut CD)
Montgomery Gentry: Wanted Dead or Alive (on the Pro Bull Riding Association CD)
Chris Ledoux: Bang a Drum (duet with Jon on One Man Road and his box set)

I have a partial recording of Nelson singing Wanted Dead or Alive--they did it at a radio station and the radio played their version for Jon and then Matthew Nelson made a guest appearance during Jon's interview.

Yes. It's called Coveted Dead or Alive. I've seen it in various places.
