I'd love to do Pat Benatar. Probably either 'Hit Me with Your Best Shot' or 'We Belong'.

'Fade To Black' - just this amazing construct: a song that defied the definition of what Metallica was perceived to be at the time.

'Livin' on a Prayer,' 'Wanted Dead or Alive' - those are iconic songs.

When I think about 'Since U Been Gone,' I think the first thing that comes to mind is 'Livin' On A Prayer' - they're kind of like sisters, a little bit. And 'Call Me Maybe' was so wildly original, and so quirky, and so satisfying.

I would say Whitney Houston's 'I Will Always Love You' is up there - it's one of the best.

'I Think We're Alone Now' is one of the all-time great songs.

I laughed and pointed out that "Hash Browns Mean Nothing Without You" was a pretty good name for a band.

"Oh, I deep fried for you / But now I weep 'n' cry for you / Oh, babe, this meal was made for two / And these hash browns mean nothing, oh these hash browns mean nothing, yeah these HASH BROWNS MEAN NOTHIN' without you.

'Hell is for Children' is amazing to do every night and 'Promises in the Dark' and 'Love Is a Battlefied,' of course, but my absolute favorite would be 'Heartbreaker.'

Oh, yeah, I've always thought of covering some of my influences like Billy Joel, Elton John, Stevie Wonder.

I love doing 'I Will Always Love You.'

Some of my favorite songs are slow songs, like Guns N' Roses' 'November Rain.'

I listen to a lot of '80s stuff, like 'Owner of a Lonely Heart,' by the group Yes. And Mr. Mister's 'Broken Wings.'

My favorite song is Whitney Houston's 'I Will Always Love You' because my brother used to sing it to me as loud as he could. Annoying then, favorite memory now.

In Denver, all we really had was pop radio, so I grew up on all that late '70s pop stuff - Billy Joel, James Taylor, Lionel Richie, Elton John, Steve Miller and Toto. Great love songs and really hooky and melodic music - I have all of that stuff in my heart.

Just the fact that that Europe album 'The Final Countdown' came out in 1986 and 'Rad' came out in 1986... I'm starting to think that maybe 1986 is my favorite year, of all time!
