What is the best acoustic guitar song you've heard?

[Mr. Daystar]

Mood For A Day/The Clap-Steve Howe or Goodbye Blue Sky-Pink Floyd

Hmmmmmm, probably my favorite is from Shining (Sw) off the V. Halmsted Album,
Längtar Bort Från Mitt Hjärta (Second track off the album. It's all in Swedish and about 2/3rds of the song is in acoustic, But what a fucking riff!!! If there has to be a full on acoustic song I like, it's Windir's Likbør....

Hey folks I like Black Metal, so sorry for all the Weird Language non sense >=D

 

[meesterperfect]

So many good ones,
Going to California by Zep and Sister Morphine by the stones come to mind......
Sugar Mountain - Neil Young ,Dust In The Wind - Kansas, Yesterday- Beatles
Wish you Were Here is probably the best ever now that I think about it.I still get chills eveytime I hear it.
Sad note, Richard Wright passed away yesterday

So many great acoustic songs...

I really like the Stone Temple Pilots acoustic version of Plush and someone mentioned Nirvana's acoustic "All Apologies" which is great too.

The Rolling Stones have several fantastic acoustic driven songs... Wild Horses, Angie, Sister Morphine and the awesome Moonlight Mile.

Any Neil Young song is a masterpiece... my current fav is his solo performance of Don't Let It Bring You Down... The Needle And The Damage Done, Old Man, Deep Forbidden Lake... man I could list every song in his catologue.

James Taylor's "Fire And Rain"... "Give A Little Bit" by Supertramp is a classic... "Norwegian Wood" by The Beatles... oh, and a little ditty called "Stairway To Heaven" by Led Zepplin is pretty good in case you haven't heard of it (they've got some other good acoustic tunes like "Ramble On" or "Babe, I'm Gonna Leave You").

Of course there's great folk songs starting with Dylan, how about Tangled Up In Blue... I like Gordon Lightfoot songs like "Sundown" or "The Wreck Of The Edmund Fitzgerald"... and Simon and Garfunkle's "Mrs Robinson" is an all time great.

Also I love Pete Townshends acoustic work throughout the album "Tommy", the "Overture" track is one of the great peices of acoustic ever.

Nothing To Lose was enjoyable as well.

And Rock N' Roll All Nite.

The best? I wouldnt presume to ever know.

But I like a few.. they're in my mind and attributed to certain moods, plenty of memories. Often, sadness. But like a good friend the music is always there.

Django Reinhart's work (He only used two fingers due to an accident as a teen)

John Mayer sticking to what he should.. although his radio play hits arent bad, he's great with a guitar and underrated as anything but a pop star.

Eric Clapton - Circus Left Town

Blind people. Find every last musician who cant see and you'll find instant classics.

Brian Setzer - Sleepwalk (Hollow body electrics count! )

But, eh.. even if a hollow electric didnt fit the bill IMO, I just have to mention the Setzer orchestra as one of my fave bands. Yay rockabilly!
