Tried searching but didn't come up with anything worthwhile. List some good songs up Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb tuning.

G n R - Paradise City

Shows how much I know...

Any song that's in standard tuning ever. Just down a semitone.

Early Nevermore. Late Metallica.

almost all rock bands at one time have had a few songs in Eb.

also when bands play live, i see they tune Eb a lot....

Metallica, Pantera, RHCP, Alice in Chains, System Of a Down Etc Etc....

Eb standard is pretty lame, tbqh.

Stevie Ray worked in Eb a lot.

yeah B standards where its at.

Little Wing by Jimi Hendrix.
Most of everything by Guns n Roses.
Alot of Van Halen
Alot of Thin Lizzy.

This, it's not like it makes any real difference

If you want to play along with the CD it does...

About half of all power metal bands, I would guess. Maybe a little more than half.

Weezer.

And I think a lot of bands who play live using this tuning do so because it's easier to sing to.

play songs in fb

When did RHCP play a half step down?

alot of slayer, basically anything from the 80's save show no mercy

Dark Tranquillity - The Gallery.

Yea I just wanna jam with some songs in Eb and not have to tune and retune my guitar everytime. Someone said earlier a lot of bands tune flat when live. How come? String slackage, a lil easier to play? Who knows...

Extreme - Get the Funk Out.

I like Eb as well, what I suggest to you, is buying coughcoughdownloadcoughcough a copy of Cool Edit Pro or some recording program, in which you can lower the pitch of songs, so that what you can play any song in Eb...

Thats what I do.

cool edit pro can drop the pitch? thats awesome i've never used that feature before.
weezer is almost always in Eb.
story of my life - social distortion
wake the dead - comeback kid
anyway you want it - journey\rise against

Protest the Hero- Blindfolds Aside

Although thats in drop Db depending on which tab your using

But I play it in Eb, the lower notes are unnescassary

EVERYTHING by Orchid

Scarified or most things by Racer X. Or just play any song that's in standard and it will sound fine, just a half step lower.
