Having played in rock bands for years, myself and a couple of friends are putting together an acoustic set but want to stay away from the same songs you hear every acoustic band play. Any ideas for popular songs that might sound good acoustically? What's your favourite acoustic cover?

Well this

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fKFbnhcNnjE

is a good cover of this

This isnt acoustic but it might inspire you, its a live performance of an edm sounding cover of maniac. Shows how far you can go with covers.
