Not sure about this one, but it's popular with the boys!
Teenagers - My Chemical Romance.

And another one from My Chemical Romance - Famous Last Words.

I currently prefer Horse with no name. This contains a fairly repetative acoustic guitar which will help James, the drums come in a bit later so this may be a problem in terms of the band keeping time. May be Dom's drum teacher could come up with a drum section from the start of the song.
There's also a good base guitar section. Who would play this, Scott? Would he give up the keyboard?
As you're better placed to re-arrange this song for the band I'll defer to your experience and judgement.
I can also see why the boys like Teenagers as this is more Rock n Roll. This song really needs an electric guitar. May be James can convince Hannah to loan him her guitar. Good drums on this song.

Thanks Mike - I'll try them with Horse With No Name. I found a better version of it on iTunes.
