Default Songs in DADGAD

I have my classical tuned to DADGAD for a little while and would like to learn some classical/Spanish songs while I have it tuned this way. Thanks

These days, I keep my classical in "open G tuning". Some spanish tunes are suited,,, some, not so much. As in DADGAD, some songs can be easily transposed from standard, but many cannot. There is a good reason why we have so many alternate tunings suited to certain music and also why we have "Standard EADGBE Tuning".
