Acoustic/"unplugged" versions of electric songs

DDDorian · 09-01-2007, 10:05 PM

Post your favourite acoustic versions of electric songs here! Here are a couple to start with:

<---Alice in Chains - "Nutshell" unplugged (to be fair, it was always acoustic, but this version kicks mucho arse so up it goes)

<-- Korn - their song "Make Me Bad" crossed with The Cure's "In Between Days", performed with Robert Smith. I reckon this came out pretty well, all things considered...

<--Slaughter - "Fly With The Angels" (cringe factor = bajillion)

<--Tuck Andreas and his wife playing "Time After Time" by Cyndi Lauper

Post away!

+Rep for the classy choice!

Sad he left us so soon... Dang what a awesome voice/talent he had

Well I looked around, couldn't find the two performances I thought off...but this is a fav of mine...very simple tune, but I really dig it!

I also did an Acoustic cover of Billy Joel's "The Downeaster Alexa" that oddly enough, is my most popular vid on youtube! It's not metal, but hey everyone love's Billy right?

Oh, and here's a video I already linked to in another thread of John Petrucci and James LaBrie performing 'Another Day' unplugged.

I love this version of Vertical Horizon's Everything You Want.

Black Label Society - Stillborn, acoustic.

Chris Cornell - Billy Jean
