Hello Steemians and fellow music lovers!

Today I thought I would share some of my favorite acoustic numbers with you all. These are MY FAVORITES - and for that reason you won't see regulars such as Wonderwall or Every Rose has its Thorn (Oasis are my second most hated band behind U2!)

Sticky Fingers - Cyclone

Sticky Fingers are an Australian band who play in the style or rock, blues, reggae and dub - their music is quite varied! These guys gelled with my musical taste straight away - they have a similar sound to a lot of dub reggae musicians from New Zealand. I am absolutely in LOVE with this tune ‘Cyclone’ awesome rhythm and the guy has a amazing voice!

Ed Sheeran - Trap Queen

Ed Sheeran is one of the most popular musicians on the planet right now - and is touring the world playing to sell out concerts supporting his latest album Divide. One of his songs I love is actually a cover of a rap song by Fetty Wap called ‘Trap Queen’. What I love about this song is that Ed has taken it and completely made it his own. I am not a huge rap fan, and I listened to original after hearing the Ed Sheeran version, and I really didn't like it! The lyrics are pretty funny. Let me know what you think:

I am Giant - Duality

As I’m from New Zealand I often include a song from my home country. I am Giant have been rocking New Zealand for nearly a decade with their mix of grunge, rock and heavy metal. Their acoustic cover of Slipknot showed their diversity and the singers brilliant vocal range

Incubus - Mexico

Incubus was a band I loved in the 90s and early 2000s, and for me their newer albums have been a bit disappointing. Incubus have recorded many of their songs acoustically so it is hard to choose just one, but I really love the version of ‘Mexico’ from the album morning view:

Zakk Wylde - N.I.B

This last one is just a bit of a laugh, but is actually pretty clever. Zakk Wylde is one of my favorite guitar players - playing as a solo musician, as the lead guitar player of Black Label Society and also playing guitar for Ozzy Osbourne in the past. Zakk shows here that he doesn't need a proper and expensive guitar to sound good - an awesome version of the Black Sabbath song N.I.B on a mini Hello Kitty guitar:

I’d love to hear what your favorite acoustic songs are!
