Campfire Songs
spoon_of_grimbo:
fair enough, i probably overreacted there, and i apologise. it's just that the whole "liking things ironically" thing brings down the red mist for me every time.
the point i was trying to make (and it's one i'd do myself, as many of the songs that have been listed so far in this thread are ones that i barely know), is that if you don't know or don't like a song, you don't have to sit there and sulk about how tacky it is. singing stuff around a campfire isn't a serious artistic display, it's just playing/singing for shits and giggles, generally. as long as people take it that way, it doesn't matter what's being played, you don't necessarily have to sing along, just don't kill the upbeat mood by complaining that you don't like the song or whatever.
as i said, apologies for the shit-fit earlier. i'd also add to the thread-list Rumbleseat's "California Burritos" - listen here for a taste of its awesomeness.
The Joker:
You Can't Always Get What You Want by the Rolling Stones is a good one.
Those are written a little bit wrong, he repeats the first verse right at the beginning for some reason. As far as I know, you do the first verse, then the chorus, then move on to the verse about the demonstration.
imapiratearg:
"Brown Eyed Girl" by Van Morrison.
The Joker:
Seconded, I actually just had a fire last night and ended up playing that.
Wild Horses (also by the Stones) is another good one.
JimmyJazz:
Or you could scare everyone around the campfire with this song: Where DId You Sleep Last Night? - Lead Belly
