Hearing suburbia done acoustically would be like a dream, every time I hear that song it gives me chills its so damn good.

I dont know about any of those. The Rat Who Would Be King is one his best songs ever, but I dont think it would sound good acoustic. I think its better in its current form, same with I Miss New Wave

I think that most of what Matt does turns out pretty good, However I completly disagree with you and hope that a re-make of Sheryl Crow never happens.

The Fall Of Man would be a great acoustic song. I can hear how it would sound in my head but sadly I can't play guitar to demonstrate.

That wwas a good one, I didn't even think of that! honestly I think he should just do everyone acoustic.

1) I don't know if I agree with that...

 

In my opinion, the majority of acoustic songs come off sounding depressing (which is okay in small doses). If he did a whole show of acoustic songs, he would have to be careful.

 

I personally like a mix.

 

2) I disagree with some of the songs you guys are recommending for acoustic, specifically the slower songs (ABAHM and other slower songs).

 

These to me seem almost half acoustic anyways, so adapting them into acoustic songs seems too easy.

 

For example - Strange Days, I didn't see the need to acousticize that one on Rooms. I felt a little ripped off at first, but it's Matt's show/CD so he gets to make the choices. I would've rather seen a song that you wouldn't think acoustic would work (I.E. Hello Time Bomb). Which I know a lot of you dislike, and I didn't like it at first, but it really grew on me and is probably one of my favourite Rooms songs now.

 

Thanks,

 

Dan

Avalanche, While We Were Hunting Rabbits, Jenni's Song, The Inescapable Us.

 

I love what he did with Generation X-Wing, and think Radio Bomb might have a similar effect.

 

Hell, all of them.
