Marvin Gaye-Let's Get it On

I love pretty much anything acoustic. 

All time favourite song to hear acoustic for me is a song that these guys I used to know, they had a band, a metal thrasher band and they weren't very successful and to supplement their income they sold drugs...anyway as 21, or so, year old girls, we hung out there a lot...free drugs, lol...ANYWAY...I was there one time, after smoking this really mellow green and one of them was playing "Wish You Were Here" on the acoustic...and it was almost a religious experience for me...so, tell me...what is your favourite acoustic song to play/hear?

21...good lord, was that really 16 years ago???  Excuse me while I jump off of a bridge.

Right now my fav acoustic song is the more recent version of "Landslide" with Just Stevie singing and Lindsay Buckingham playing guitar. Buckingham is one of the most talented finger pickers I've heard, and my brother - who also plays, and very well I might add - agrees. Something about his ability to syncopate the rythmn and combine notes from "pull-offs" on the neck with string picking. My father played guitar as well, self taught chord progressions in C, and when he would hear that version of Landslide he just couldn't get over how it was just one guy playing. He always thought there were two.

Second most fav, is when my brother plays "Ecstasy" by Rusted Root live. He tears the shit outta that song on his amplified acoustic. It's fucking awesome watching him play it. His fingers blur, both on the neck fretting the notes and strumming.
