Coffee House Performance

Hey guys!
I'm performing at my school's Coffee House this year and i was wondering if any of you can suggest some songs for me to play (acoustic guitar). I'll be playing solo so please no duets. I prefer mellow songs or anything catchy really. Indie pop is good too

To give you a sense of what kind of songs i prefer...
Jason Mraz, Maroon 5, Lenka, etc etc.
help me out!
Thanks!

Don't play Jason Mraz and Maroon 5. There's nothing more annoying than hearing that shez hundreds of times on the guitar.

I'm guessing some sort of get-together where people drink coffee while chilling and hearing teh moosix.

This might sound weird, but acoustic upbeat versions of either Hit Me Baby One More Time or Ignition (Remix) tend to be a big hit and get the crowed going, assuming you can pull them off. Both are easy to learn, 4-5 chords each.
