Great Acoustic Songs

gabers · April 2010

I've got to say I've been really loving Iron and Wine's cover of New Order's song "Love Vigilantes". I think I actually like it better than the original.

Any other favorites?

Alright you bums, looks like I'm a gonna have to bring out the big dogs to engage you. Here's a fellow named Eddie Vedder singing Boby Dylan's "The Times They Are a Changin'". I actually hadn't heard his cover of this before. Pretty outstanding.

Anything Nick Drake is always good for me when I'm in a acoustic kind of mood. I can't get to youtube from work so sorry but no videos.

look to find zakk wylde's 'book of shadows' record. its a great disc start to finish.
ahhh, back in the good ol' days when zakk would write good music and not play to his biker steriotype.(my 2 cents anyway)

black crowes had 2 acoustic shows you can download for 10 bucks at livecrowes.com (11/3, 11/4 2008). both great shows but id give the edge to the 4th if you only get one. i think only 1 song (thorn) got played on both nights.

When I first heard her I thought she sounded like a cheap mamacita Alanis Morrissette wanna be. But the girl has talent, no doubt. And she's not too hard on the eyes either. That She Wolf video - whoah. Borderline soft porn there. I'd say she's in my top five "celebrity free pass" list.

Back in like '98 I would go to these Latin American parties with my now wife when we where in college and I remember really liking her music back then. More so than now. And all the Latin American girls knew al the words to her songs and would sing along. Good times.

This was a big one back then.
