Matchbox 20 has a lot of acoustic songs- 3am, Push, Long Day..and they have songs ONLY in acoustic: Loss, Strain and Butterflies and "My Heart is Yours" *pretty one*
Sarah McLachlan "Arm of the Angels" also acoustic with Matchbox 20..you'll prob find it under "Angel" *very touching acoustic or not*
Eric Clapton's song "Heaven" is acoustic. Very sad, he wrote it after his toddler accidentally toddled out a three story window *sad*. He has a few more acoustic songs..he's one of the greats when it comes to guitarists..yep.
"Broken" by Seether featuring Amy Lee is the best one IMO
There is an acoustic version of "Hanging by a Moment" by Lifehouse
Pearl Jam does an acoustic of "Black"
Three Doors Down has several acoustic songs..
And because..well..I enjoy it so much:
Some Led Zeppelin! Most people's favorite is "Stairway to Heaven" and you can find it acoustic, but my personal favorite is "Going to California" (acoustic also or otherwise!!). But of course, they have dozens of timeless tunes!
Another oldie:
"Dust in the Wind" by Kansas
You can get an acoustic version of
"Imagine" by John Lennon *I can't help it..that song, especially in the original version, is the bomb..sigh*..and I also love "Woman" *..especially in the beginning, because he says "for the other half of the sky"..that's just beautiful*
"Tuesday's Gone" originally by Lynard Skynard..there are a couple of remakes out there. (Metallica for instance)
"Daniel" remake by Fuel acoustic; originally by Elton John. BTW, I love my Elton- at least his old ones, especially his non-acoustic "Hello"-I prefer the original "Daniel" by Elton.. really...because the real lyrics are: his eyes have "DIED" NOT "lied"..*sigh*..see Daniel was blind..dang Fuel for messin the song up!
One of my favorite bands Fleetwood Mac..and a song that isn't known by many:
"Never Going Back Again" by Fleetwood Mac
and my favorite by Stevie "Landslide" comes in an acoustic version..extremely pretty.
This isn't really classified as acoustic..but it comes close:
"Knights in White Satin" by the Moody Blues *gotta love the end where he says..*.."<snip>...cold hearted orb that rules the night... removes the colors from our site...but we decide which is right...and which IS an illusion.."
And since we are already going so far back, *sorry*--might as well go "there":
"Yesterday" by Paul McCartney
Wow..yeah I tend to overdue things most times *smile*
