Title: Most...popular acoustic songs
Post by: Catacombs on 15 Oct 2007, 18:46
I'm trying to get a list of popular acoustic songs.  It songs originally recorded with acoustics or electric songs that translate well.  Got any suggestions?

I think it would help a lot if we knew what you were planning on doing with the songs. Are you making a mix? Are you going to try learn to play them?

An easy to learn acoustic song that's nice to play with is, actually Blackbird (tehbeatles) I found when I first picked up playing.
Really though, you need to realize that a lot of things can be played acoustically. If you want to play the James Bond theme song, go right ahead.
Which one you ask? ALL OF THEM

Saying I love you
Is not the words I want to hear from you
It's not that I want you
Not to say, but if you only knew
How easy it would be to show me how you feel
More than words is all you have to do to make it real
Then you wouldn't have to say that you love me
Cos I'd already know
What would you do if my heart was torn in two
More than words to show you feel
That your love for me is real
What would you say if I took those words away
Then you couldn't make things new
Just by saying I love you
More than words
Now I've tried to talk to you and make you understand
All you have to do is close your eyes
And just reach out your hands and touch me
Hold me close don't ever let me go
More than words is all I ever needed you to show
Then you wouldn't have to say that you love me
Cos I'd already know
What would you do if my heart was torn in two
More than words to show you feel
That your love for me is real
What would you say if I took those words away
Then you couldn't make things new
Just by saying I love you
More than words

Zakk Wylde recorded an acoustic version of Stillborn for a radio station in Hartford, CT.  The first two minutes are some of the best acoustic work I've ever heard.

BOA made an acoustic for DUVET (Yes, the song from Lain) but I thought that Get There off their new album Get There :-P would make a great acoustic.
