What are some good acoustic songs..

that i can sing for an open mic night.. i have

The Tide - The Spill Canvas
What It's Like - Everlast
Gravedigger - The Dave Matthews Band..
Hurt - Johnny Cash
Rain - Breaking Benjamin
Lake of Fire - Nirvana

Something along those lines maybe

well you seem to be a pop guy, and these guys recently sold out... so you'd like this song

it's called "searching for a former clarity" by against me!

no that song was alright... but it was poppy.. and i don't sing that crap i want something that sounds good acoustically and has a meaning

more than words from extreme. a classic...

anything by the beatles....

you want something that sounds good acoustic and has meaning?

i'm sorry but that song has more meaning than any song you've posted on here. maybe it's just a little to poetic for you, idk.

if u understood Icelandic id reccomend some sigur ros songs.. not quite acoustic, but easily adaptable i would imagine.

i have all sigur ros songs on my ipod...i even saw them in concert... have one of their shirts and stuffs... but you can't play that at open mic... cuz it's all electro... i'm talking about guitar

some good ideas here... i know most of the songs... so i might thnx guys i'm still always open for suggestions

Metallica has plenty of them, and a good ones.

dont forget clapton unplugged - 'old love' or 'hey hey'

guns and roses did an acoustic record you could play 'Paitence' or 'used to love her'

led zeppelin has a bunch - 'thats the way' in open G tuning is cool and different sounding, 'thank you', 'over the hills and far away' , 'tangerine'

pink floyd - 'wish you were' here is always good and 'brain damage' are cool

bob dylan - 'north coutnry girl' duet with johhny cash is nice or 'all along the watchtower'

some alternative or easylistening is usually good in acoustic if we have ne of those listeners on wbw

how about "black" by pearl jam

Epiphany or Outside - Staind
Crush - Dave Matthews
Oh Me - Nirvana

geez...probably a million others. Where u from? I like acoustic shows....

In the Ghetto - Elvis
Me and Bobby McGee - Kris Kristofferson
Mercedes Benz - Janis Joplin
Jealous Guy - Bryan Ferry

Try and get hold of a copy of the new Paul Anka CD, "Rock Swings" - his cover of Smells Like Teen Spirit is inspired, and the whole album might give you a few ideas...
