I kind of like Big Rock Candy Mountain (though I know it via Steve Goodman), and though, as you note, Everything Possible is rather overdone here, that's because it is a good song.

How about something like A Hazy Shade of Winter, or even Fakin' It (both Simon & Garfunkel)? They might translate well, though you'd be kind of busy with the vocals in Fakin' It. Hm...

One odd possibility that occurred to me when I was listening to it recently: I would love to hear an acoustic reword of (Hangin' on the) Telephone, by Blondie. It could be done either at tempo or slowed down, and I think it's a good enough song to stand up to it.

Just thinkin', at almost 5 AM (did taxes, needed to transfer from spreadsheet to forms, noticed error, decided that three hours of sleep were going to be a problem, so I'm up until after taking the kids to school).
