If you could've picked two songs for the GLSOAL, what would you have
picked?

I would have loved to have heard him sing:

The Wedding Song (There is Love)

and

Crazy (Patsy Cline)- accoustic

"Crazy" -- great choice.

My pick is from the "ain't never gonna happen" department:

"Wonderful Tonight" with the stipulation that Eric Clapton plays guitar, and
Ray Cooper plays percussion on this great love song.

"Once Upon a Time" - sung during the "clicker" tour, but never on an
album

"Someone to Watch Over Me"

Great choices, like Scooter said, from the ' Ain't Gonna Happen Dept'
wouldn't it be AWESOME if Barry asked us to pick songs for his next
cover album, cuz you KNOW there will be one!

Don't shoot me for this.
I posted this suggestion more than a year ago and I stand by it.

His own version of Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah"

NOT a rehash of what Rufus Wainright did and what got into the Shrek
soundtrack.

Strip it ALL the way back to Cohen's original and build it up again.

Use some different verses - the original song supposedly had about
15-20 or so.

Believe it or not, this is my favorite love song of all time - becuase
it's about real-life love, not fantasy.

(plink plink - 2 cents)

In honor of his upcoming engagement at the Paris, how about "La Vie En
Rose"? Also "Mona Lisa".

I was thinking La Vie En Rose as well! It would be fabulous to hear
him perform that live at Paris.

Wouldn't that be cool? Maybe he'll look on here and get some new
ideas...

Here are three more:

Some Enchanted Evening & Always on My Mind & I Will Always Love You -
accoustic for IWALY
