Non Metal Songs We Play

We can't all be so grim and necro that we never play anything but metal. Got the idea from the CC DVD where Jack rips out his acoustic. So cmon, post away...

Right now:

Vast - Touched
Air - Cherry Blossom Girl
Green Day - American Idiot [hate that fucking song, always find myself playing it]

Thats about it for now.

[keep telling yourself its a valid thread and that you wont get flamed and maybe metaltabs will believe that aswell... ]

Yep video game music metal style is awesome.

And whenever I play acoustic its not metal. Just random stuff that if played on a distorted electric guitar probably would be considered as metal.

Sometimes I'll play some classical but usually it's still with a distorted guitar and converted into a death metal stylee. I rarely play songs at all - probably about 4 or 5 songs per practise session - and most of my time is spent improvising or tabbing.

i fucking despise the song, and the band, but i play it when im fucking around (dunno why, probably because its a fun sort of riff)

at the gates - and the world returned
sounds great and its by a metal band

opeth - in my time of need
see at the gates.

metallica intros (pre justice for all, i dont actually own justice)

dunno what else.

EDIT: AC/DC - thunderstruck. guess why.

I play KMFDM alot, which has some metal moments, but I would not consider them metal.

Other stuff I play when not doing metal:

Spice Girls (no, seriously)
Madonna
Soundgarden (which to me is not metal at all, just good ol' rock)
