Criteria:
1. Must sound on solo guitar, preferably acoustic.
2. If there are vocals, the song must be interesting without them, and
they
mustn't be too hard to sing if they are present.
3. Mustn't be too difficult for mortals to play.
4. Must make them want to shag you.

I'll start:
Mood For A Day (might fail 3 but I never tried to learn it properly)

"Lesson too late for the learning" by Tom Paxton. Got me two wives, I'm
not
very imaginitive. Or very smart?

Ironic choice, Tony! I assume you're referring to "The last thing on my
mind". And I actually made a recording of it last year when my last
marriage split. I considered sending her the recording. I thought about
it
and sent her Dylan's "Don't Think Twice, It's Alright" instead.



Thanks for the correction. I haven't played it but three or four times since
I got married married about 17 years ago - I think I can be forgiven for
getting the name wrong! I play it John Hurt style, more or less. Ah, I could
make the girls swoon (don't suppose that is a kool word these days) with
that one when I was younger, even if I can't sing worth a damn.

"Don't think twice" is one of my all-time favourites, and it is a current
band number. I've always played it as open D slide. Kind of hicky sounding
