Song Suggestions?
Hey guys, got a new classical guitar a few months ago and have since come to the realization that I mostly noodle and don't really play anything that anyone wants to hear. So I've decided I need to come up with a repertoire of complete songs that I can play on my acoustic and sing in their entirety.
So far my To Do list is: 1) More Than Words by Extreme 2) Blackbird by The Beatles 3) The Boxer by Simon & Garfunkle 4) Classical Gas by Mason Williams 5) **** Her Gently by Tenacious D 6) Canon in D by Pachelbel Obviously some of these are going to take some time to work up, but I'm willing to put some time into this.

If you want a challenge, try "The Clap" by Steve Howe.
I don't know if you like the band Cake, but I like playing their stuff on acoustic (if you only know their hits, I'd recommend checking out their non-hits). Also, something like "Angeles" by Elliott Smith could be a good song to learn. He's got lots of good songs for acoustic guitar too. "Tomorrow Tomorrow" is a hard song to pull off. I think he's an underrated guitar player. (When I say "good," I mean songs that I like that are also interesting to play - i.e., finger picking and/or interesting chords are involved - not just strumming common chords over and over).
