    Hi, I’m new to this forum. I sing with a friend who plays guitar at a restaurant near where I live, and I would LOVE to include some Oingo Boingo songs in our repertoire. The problem is, Boingo has so many instruments in their band, so a lot of the songs just wouldn’t work as acoustic versions. Can you think of any that WOULD work? The only one I can think of is “We Close Our Eyes”. Could you help me out?

    There are TONS of Oingo Boingo songs that work perfectly when you adapt them to play accoustic versions.
    All you need is some work on the adaptations. Of course, the songs will not have the same energy and speed the originals have, since it’s accoustic, but it will show another side of theses lovely melodies.

    I adapted a few Boingo songs that I played at my last concert, only with a piano… Maybe this selection can give you an idea…

    I’m sure you can work your way around Cinderella Undercover with a guitar…

    I play and sing “Fill the Void” with an acoustic all the time. Fun song.
