Doubling your voice with instruments

In college I had a weekend gig at a restaurant, a solo thing that was the best practice I could have ever had. That's where I learned to coordinate my singing and my piano playing.
Norah Jones

Sometimes you hear those songs that make you wanna sing along but you have to have the music for ques as to when to start or even cut off.
It is always nice to have a good accompany to any beat. Whether you are performing a ballad or even just a simple slow song. Anywhere from country to rock to punk to the classics.
What is the most common instrument used in solos?
Guitar?
Piano?
Actually, it varies due to different kinds of music, and also how you want the song to sound. If you are hoping for a hopeful upbeat song, you'll generally start with a guitar, and for a down beat you may find artists using pianos. Always depending on you, and how you interpret a song, or how you interpret your own.
