25 Of The Best Acoustic Covers Out There

There is just something about the slowed acoustics of a popular song that brings them to life in a new way. These covers of songs make them seem, yes more simple, but in that same way, perhaps a little more relatable. Acoustic covers allow the population to explore music in a more heartfelt way, allowing them to detect new notes and words and interpret the work in an all new way! And so, here are some of my favorite covers I've found, I hope you'll enjoy!

To My Loving Boyfriend,

Thank you for all that you do for me
Thank you for working through disagreements with me
Thank you for always supporting me
I appreciate you more than words can express
You have helped me grow and become a better person
I can't wait to see where life takes us next
I promise to cherish every moment with you
Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.

1. It's easy to be fooled by shiny things.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
