You don't have lima sen

If you got, you wouldn't owe so many people money

it'll be nice if you guys could link sheet music too.

aiya why everyone recommend metallica/guns and roses/nirvana and all those common bands wan..no offence man but its too cliche..

heres my part-

guitar
1. blackest eyes - porcupine tree
2. blackwater park - opeth
3. babe im gonna leave you - led zep
4. comfortable - john mayer
5. summer romance - incubus
6. five - deja voodoo spells

those are meant for intermediate/experienced players tho..i dont know what to suggest for party songs/songs u must learn cuz everyone has different tastes etc..oh well, try those songs i suggested tho..

Opeth's are pretty hard, u need to have natural movements to the songs to be able to play it imo..
so far i've nailed some parts for Ghost of Perdition, Deliverance, and Master's Apprentices

when will it be for a complete song

Blackest Eyes and Fear of a Blank Planet are also fun to play as well

easy song for beginners!

Metallica-nothing else matters

should be the easiest vai song... Die To Live

For electric guitar .... has anyone missed out Switch 625 by the late Steve Clark of Def Leppard ?

Hello, I'm an Acoustic Guitar player and I just found this section of the forums. Anyway I have a short list of songs that I'll call my 'Acoustic Love Songs'. I feel that these are nice songs to play at almost any situation (except of course consoling someone who just broke up), as people generally love these songs. I've also included some personal notes about the songs:

1) Boyzone - No Matter What

Tabs here: http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/tabs/b/boyz...er_what_crd.htm

The song is actually played in 2 keys, starts off with A and then proceeds to C key towards the end. The problem is that at some parts of the song, it vocals are very high. I personally tune my guitar down half a step (E flat, A flat etc) and play the entire song in A key.


2)The Calling - Wherever You Will Go

This youtube video features just the lead singer playing the acoustic version of the song, and the video focuses on the guitar - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8JeuKf-J9Qo&feature=related

It might seem a little complicated, but it is easy to learn, and tabs are available easily. I myself learned the song from this video - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8wOuxwTL5mU

The original (album version) is done on Capo 2, however when they perform live it's done on Capo 1. You can go higher capo or no capo, but just make sure your voice can match what you're playing.

3)David Cook - Always Be My Baby

Very easy song to learn, very simple to play. Tabs here - http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/tabs/d/davi...ab.htm#comments

Who knew a Mariah Carey song can be transformed into manly song

4) Eric Clapton - Wonderful Tonight

This song is a classic. A very romantic song. Most acoustic guitar players however tend to stay away from this song because the original involves electric guitar solos.

However I came across this video - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uAT7iyikwLo&feature=related

In the video the song is played in Capo 3, while the original song has no capo. I use the chords from here - http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/tabs/e/eric...rd.htm#comments

5) George Benson - Nothing's Gonna Change My Love For You

Another classic song, although covered not very long ago by Westlife. This song is actually played in 2 keys. The vocals do go up very high, so it can be a tough song to sing. However, there are a few things you can do to sort this out.

As you can see in the tabs - http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/tabs/g/glen...ve_ver2_crd.htm, the original song is in capo 2. I myself play it with no capo and only in the key of C. You can choose to strum, or play it like this - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sAmMG_ggwa0

I personally prefer the one in the video.

6) Michael Buble - Home

Very popular song. However, the original is more of a piano song. Then came Boyce Avenue's cover:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FQTifkxs2F0

This song will take some time to learn. It sounds very nice on capo 1 and capo 2 as well, but only if your voice can go high. Here are the tabs:

http://www.ultimate-guitar.com/tabs/m/mich...le/home_tab.htm

I hope this helps
