[Joyride]

I am still fond of Outside from Aaron Lewis of Staind

 

[Ramsnake]

Ok i shall leave out monster hits like dead or alive,nothin else matters, more than words etc .....u would have already listened to them....


and when u say acoustic i assume u would want me to leave out the speed metal of acoustic music ---> flamenco...

anyways....

great acoustic songs u must listen to..

1. What Its Like - Everlast ( A Rip Off of a def leppard song IMHO)
2. Faitha Faitha Faitha..... cant really think off any ill keep adding as i remember later...

Oasis acoustic songs are very well done (contrary to all your ignorant disbeliefs).

There's an acoustic version of Everlong by Foo Fighters out there that is awesome, and no it's not that recording from the howard stone show. It's a much better one.

edit: i mean howard stern show. brain fart

 

[Mucman]

Incubus - Pardon Me

 

[fooshkee]

"Neon" - John Mayer

anything from the Dave and Tim live at luther college cd...

"barely breathing (acoustic)".... duncan shiek is a classic also.

EvilYoda, good call with MTW. used to bust that tune out and sing harmony while my roomie sang lead vocals on it. the chickadees were very impressed...

 

[polypterus]

Better Days by Foundation

dc

 

[Keego]

Some non-rock ones that are good:
Anything from Ben Harper, anything from Jack Johnson

 

[Supermercado]

I've got a great acoustic version of "Come Down" by Bush.

 

[SWScorch]

Tourniquet - Twilight, If Pigs Could Fly (thats two songs)
In Flames - Pallar Anders Visa, Jester Script Transfigured (note that these songs are "mostly acoustic)

 

[fitzhue]

Dave Matthews and Tim Reynolds - Live at Luther College was all acoustic and is arguably the best dmb album out. Some of the songs are amazing, like Stream. That whole cd is awesome. I also agree with whoever said John Mayer acoustic. Can't go wrong with either of those.

Metallica has some good acoustic songs:
Low Man's Lyric
Last Caress (Misfits cover)
4 Horsemen
Motorbreath
Tuesday's gone (Skynyrd cover)

Note: Low Man's Lyric is the only acoustic to appear on an album. The other three are bootlegs, but I'm sure you can find them on Kazaa or what not.

I agree that Noel Gallagher of Oasis has written some good acoustic and ballad-type songs. A lot of the good ones are on the Masterplan album. Two in particular are Talk Tonight (about a fan who talked Noel down from jumping off a roof) and Half the World Away. (Also Going Nowhere)

Dashboard Confessional is getting popular lately, and the newest album is all acoustic guitar/bass/drums. My favorite tracks are Screaming Infidelities and Again I Go Unnoticed. Good melodies, good lead voice, the lyrics make me cringe though.

 

[alee25]

ill second the dashboard confessional vote. If you looking into playing the songs though, just a tip. He only uses standard tuning on 3 of the songs (the ones from his first album). All the rest are 1. either in 1/2 step down, 2. Open D tuning, 3. Drop D flat, rest half step down.

I know almost ever single Dashboard song by memory (for the ladies of course, who fall into my lap when im playing them), so feel free to give me a PM if u want help with one.

Another good acoustic is although im not a big Dave mathews fan, i highly reccommend the acouistic live version of DMB - #41. If you can play the full song (including solo) ill be impressed as hell.

 

[UCDznutz]

not some of my all time favorite acoustic songs but some newer one's i've dug lately is:

Blink 182 - What Went Wrong
Fuel - Hemmorhage acoustic

 

[abaez]

Cat Power - Can't get no satisfaction
Cat Power - Sea of Love
White Stripes - we're going to be friends
Pj Harvey - C'mon Billy

Didn't they play that song (no nessesarily (sp?) that particular recording) in the rain one year on MTV?
