Default Favorite songs with Spruce/Mahogany tonewoods?

I've often heard that mahogany back guitars are more "woody" and focused sounding, but I'm wondering what your guys favorite examples of this are.

Beware putting a lot of stock in what you hear.

Woods themselves don't impart a easily discernible, always definable, tone.

You'll never hear, "I love that song, I always seem to prefer a tune played on a Spruce/Mahogany guitar."

Certain guitar makers, using that wood combo tend to favor the tone you mention, but another maker creates an instrument that sounds fundamentally different.
