Songs that use harmonics?

What's Hot
Stumbled across "For what it's worth" by Buffalo Springfield at my jam night the other day, a song which uses natural harmonics all the way through. Just wondered if people know any others? I quite enjoyed playing that part!

  • I've always liked the neat little harmonics in U2's Sunday Bloody Sunday.

    Intro and various bits of Rush's "Red Barchetta"

    Van Halen's "Women in Love" from VHII

    These "Harp Harmonics" are pretty interesting and people like Tommy Emmanuel, Andy Summers, Paul Jackson Jr, Steve Lukather and Eric Johnson come to mind but they go back to jazzer Lenny Breau

  • Why do U2 come up so much? Unfortunately I can't stand them or their music!

    30 years of making music, guitarist who uses fenders Gibson's rickenbacker every effect known to man, knobhead singer...

    Many reasons why they are mentioned.

  • Kim Thayil uses them a lot; Limo Wreck is a good example (watching that has got the GAS going again for a Guild S-100)

    I can believe no ones mentioned Jeff Becks Where Were You .. 
    Mostly played with false harmonics and nigh on impossible to replicate  trem bar technique, the piece is a masterclass.

    Beautiful Day, U2 again. The man loves his harmonics.

    Past the point of rescue.

    I always played a harmonic note at the end of the intro to Lying Eyes. I don't think The Eagles did though..
