    I (try) do some of the above and these.

    In Hiding
    Hail, Hail
    Down
    Smile
    Lukin

    and also these

    I Believe In Miracles
    Last Kiss
    Crazy Mary

    Leave out solos and jamming bits and all the above are pretty easy to
    remember come 3am at any house party.
    If the party is in mine the Ukelele comes out for Soon Forget :)

    Release, gotta be the easiet to play, but probably one of the harder ones to sing.

    Love Thumbing my Way, just the key change bit that is a bit tricky

    Small Town sounds great in DADGAD.

    I've just been messing with CRazy mary this morning. Not only does it sound good, the acosutic sound is totally essential to it, getting those bass strings ringing, esp on the occas E chord.
