Bob dylan always makes me feel good, songs from iron & wine, like communication cups and someones coat, and bright eyes songs :) I like fingerpickin, oh favorite of all time, george harisons while my guitar gently weeps

Yellow Ledbetter by Pearl Jam sounds really impressive but isn't actually that difficult.
