What are Your Favorite Songs for Beginners?

First, we have to define "beginner".
For young beginners, melody on one string is best. I suggest Happy Birthday, The FIrst Noel, Star Wars and rock riffs like (Flaming Ice Cube). See my MEL BAY Book "Blues for the Young Beginner" http://www.melbay.com/product.asp?ProductID=20147BCDEB.
For older beginners start with 2 chord songs: Jambalaya, Ache Breaky Heart, Rock My Soul, He's Got the Whole World.
If two chords are too much, use one-chord songs. Round are good: Hey Ho Nobody Home, Row, Row, Row Your Boat etc.
