I'm probably in the minority here, but I don't enjoy when artists play their music unplugged.

Any thoughts or examples?

depends... the first few were pretty good Nirvana, Heart, but then I realized that eventually someday there would come a time when we would be subjected to
Courtney Love's Hole Unplugged

I am probably in the minority here on the other side. I love Eric Clapton's acoustic version of "Layla". So bluesy!

Nirvana Unplugged is a classic... I also love Dashboard Confessional's Unplugged.

Martina played unplugged on CMT Showcase one time and it was amazing. Also Hanson unplugged, omg.

Shakira's unplugged was really good. She changed the arrangements on some of her songs and it was really good. I like seeing artists like that though- more personal and more open...

I love "Unplugged" performances.

My top five:

1. Nirvana
2. Paul McCartney
3. Alice In Chains
4. John Mellencamp (not released on CD)
5. Eric Clapton
