.....Bon Jovi doing a Country cover live??? I watched Walk the Line recently and thought they could do an amazing cover of that song.

If the do Hallelujah at the 02 I'll be well pleased.

I would love it if they did "Crazy" again. I'm still sad that I've never gotten to see Tico sing even though I went to one of the Christmas shows in 1994. Whether Tico or Jon sang it, it would be a great song to hear them cover.

although patsy cline is considered to be a country singer, that is NEVER EVER a country song. it's something between blues and jazz, that's why Tico covered it in the first place.

Well, Patsy did it more in a kinda of soul way, but when Willie plays it, it's country, no doubt! Anyway, soul, blues and country have so much in common that they can easily crossover.
Edit: Putting jazz in there too. Jazz is ofren just a variation of blues.

It's mind-boggling to hear that song called "not country." It's considered one of the greatest country songs of all time. Of course it has jazzy undertones, but that doesn't make it "not country." Call it what you want. It's one of the greatest songs ever.

That's what I like about country music though--it's fairly open and not so easy to pigeonhole.
