I'm looking for songs to cover on piano and my idea's have seem to run dry. Any suggestions, they don't have to be christian or piano songs at all but songs that you think would sound cool on the piano.

I quite like this one:

I was thinking modern day rock or country. I like doing this without sheet music because it gives me a challenge.

Coldplay is always a good, albeit simple choice. There's also Elton John and Billy Joel - but I'm sure you've been there and done that. If you're open to keyboards, look at stuff like The Doors and The Cars, which have some great organ parts. If you're willing to be exposed to some pretty offensive content, Bo Burnham is a modestly talented pianist and his stuff looks fun to play.

Let's make my point a little clearer. Please request SONGS that you think would be cool to play. They could be your favorite songs but I've spent so long digging through songs I don't know where to start so suggestion.....

Clocks - Coldplay
The Scientist - Coldplay
Saturday's Alright For Fighting - Elton John
Piano Man - Billy Joel
Art is Dead - Bo Burnham (Some strong language)
Love Is - Bo Burnham (Even more strong language and inappropriate humor)

Not to be the stereotypical girl response here, but I have heard some amazing covers of Adele songs, especially Rolling in the Deep, because they are easy songs to mess around with. Another one thats good is Secrets by One Republic

Oh no not the Piano Man its one of the most over rated songs ever written. It sounds good but its SOOOO boring it never changes it uses like the same 4 or 5 chords and in the same chord progression for the whole song! Drives me nuts every time I hear the song.

I must admit, your tears are delicious. Despite the rather generic structure of the song, it's still a classic, and piano solo is pretty impressive.

Now you're going out of your way to give a stereotypical girl response :p

Sky is Over by Serj Tankian (sp?) is an underrated and very nice choice.
