What additions to the UOGB repertoire would you like in terms of general genre or specific groups or specific songs / tunes?

Genre:- Glam Rock (Wizard / Sweet / Mud / T-Rex etc.)
Group:- Status Quo
Song :- Bruce Springsteen's 'Dancing In The Dark'
Song :- Simon & Garfunkel's 'Cecelia'
Tune :- 'Doctor Who' Theme (bulked up to 3 minutes, based on the sparse original or the more recent very impressive BBC National Orchestra Of Wales version)

How about some Baroque? There are some nice arrangements for multiple ukes. It could even be done with comedic interjection.
 
How about some Carpenters? Who would be the best 'Karen Carpenter'? Would it be Hester, Leisa or George (in 'Wuthering Heights' mode as a swing / crooner 35 year old Frank Sinatra)?

There is a fundamental error of omission in the UOGB performance of The Who's 'Pinball Wizard'. At the end of it in order to remain true to the original Who spirit George should smash his ukulele.
