Help me find a song!

[Wyl Staedtler]

I just learned to play 'More Than Words' on the guitar, and after three dozen times, it's getting sort of old.

What should I learn next?

[Peter McCoy]

Next Year by the Foo Fighters is a great acoustic song - really easy to learn and nice to strum when you're just sitting around doing nothing. Also most of Oasis' songs are really easy to learn, such as Wonderwall and Half The World Away.

Tribute by Tenacious D

[Peter McCoy]

If you're going to learn Tribute, you might as well learn Stairway to Heaven.

[Liam Jinn]

Nothing wrong with learning a hard song. But, if you want easy, go with Insomniac by Greenday.

[Peter McCoy]

Most of Greenday's stuff is pretty straightforward. Chord progressions are basic and catchy, with nothing fancy to trip you up. The finger picking part that opens 'Minority' can be tricky, and 'Time of Your Life' can be played as full chords rather than the picking style that is on the track, and it still sounds great. Some nice tunes to whack out from the Green doods of the Day.

And I didn't mean Tribute was hard - it's quite easy to learn the main parts, obviously the solo will take some practice to nail it. But I meant that Tribute owes a lot to Stairway and it's been suggested that's StH that they are paying tribute to. The melody is absolutely gorgeous and once you can play it fluently you'll be so chuffed as it sounds sweet!

Sweet Home Alabama?

edit - Freebird!

And La Grange, by ZZ Top. You gotta learn that one.

[Lilaena De'Ville]

What about that Free Falling song everyone with a guitar seems to know? :p

[Morgan Evanar]

Learn "Useless" by Depeche Mode

[Dae Jinn]

Tribute by Tenacious D


Is that what you played for me over the phone? XD

The only song I could play on the guitar was the Addams Family, so learn that one :)

[Xel-Naga]

Learn the intro to "Crazy Train" by Black Sabbath/Ozzy Osbourne. Next, fine a decent drummer in which to play the intro with. I can seriously listen to that intro all day long and never get bored with it.

[Dasquian Belargic]

Lots of Beatles is pretty easy... A Hard Days Night, Day Tripper, any of the early stuff really. Oasis, similarly, are fairly simple.

Torn by Natalie Imbruglia was one of the first songs I learned to play. It has one or two barre chords in there, but with a little practice you can pull it off :)

Bang Bany by Nancy Sinatra is another good one. It's picked, but since it's so slow it's easy to learn. Plus, it's from Kill Bill so it's :cool
