Godsmack - I stand Alone. Saw a cover of the song on youtube and seemed pretty fun to play. Got a little workout with muting but i think i've pretty much got it down. It's easy enough* and fun to play.

Evanescence - Going under. Practicing powerchords. Very easy song*.

* Does not mean i'm not sloppy playing it :lol:]]> Opinions and Polls Mac Manc McManx https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/what-tunes-are-you-learning-right-now/paged/3/#post-286138 https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/what-tunes-are-you-learning-right-now/paged/3/#post-286092 Tue, 25 Mar 2008 01:13:30 +0000 Opinions and Polls GrungeSunset https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/what-tunes-are-you-learning-right-now/paged/3/#post-286092 https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/what-tunes-are-you-learning-right-now/paged/3/#post-286091 Tue, 25 Mar 2008 01:08:20 +0000
American Tune, by P Simon
and
The Boxer by Simon and Garfunkel

for the past few months. My fingerpicking has improved substantially, but as always, it's slow-going....

Well I could be a little embarrassed about this one but: Since U Been Gone - Kelly Clarkson
Hashpipe - Weezer

I learned the Kelly Clarkson song to do with my daughter.]]> Opinions and Polls cnev https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/what-tunes-are-you-learning-right-now/paged/3/#post-286078 https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/what-tunes-are-you-learning-right-now/paged/3/#post-285594 Thu, 20 Mar 2008 16:55:00 +0000
I don't think Can't get Enough was in any alternate tuning. Far as I know it's standard tuning.]]> Opinions and Polls cnev https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/what-tunes-are-you-learning-right-now/paged/3/#post-285594 https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/what-tunes-are-you-learning-right-now/paged/2/#post-285510 Thu, 20 Mar 2008 04:01:51 +0000

the Giltrap thang is great fun, but hard work!! Will pay dividends once I'm comfortable with it, though. Part of the problem is that I'm trying to learn it with the 'proper' technique, which means using my ring finger on bits I'd naturally use my middle finger, and it keeps throwing me, lol. and I'm trying to use the stanrdard notation instead of the TAB, but the fact that its mostly harmonics is making this rather difficult (loads of signs I'm not used to seeing). But I'm breaking it down into small chunks and gonna go over each bit a bunch of times each day - some dedicated 'practise time', but I've also put my acoustic just outside the kitchen, so if I put the kettle on (or something similar) I can put in a few more minutes on it. I'm also gonna try a finger-memory tip from a friend - try the piece for a few mins just before bed. even if you struggle with it, apparently your brain starts processing it and 'getting used to it' while you're asleep, so its often much easier in the morning. dunno if it'll work or not, but it does add a few more minutes practise, so.........]]> Opinions and Polls Scrybe https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/what-tunes-are-you-learning-right-now/paged/2/#post-285379 https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/what-tunes-are-you-learning-right-now/paged/2/#post-284909 Sat, 15 Mar 2008 07:57:37 +0000 Cake - Stickshifts & Safetybelts: pinky hammer ons and pull offs are fun on an acoustic
RHCP - Under the Bridge: trouble getting this up to speed, and trouble with the timing on the chorus (I don't ever wanna feeel)
I've been playing around with a nice arrangement of Stella by Starlight too. I've been trying to get back towards really perfecting the songs that I learn. I think we all fall into the trap of moving on before they're really finished.]]> Opinions and Polls Noff https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/what-tunes-are-you-learning-right-now/paged/2/#post-284909 https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/what-tunes-are-you-learning-right-now/paged/2/#post-284906 Sat, 15 Mar 2008 07:39:08 +0000 Crash into me by DMB - So much fun to play! If you have an acoustic guitar, learn this song now.

Drive by Incubus - Just learned this one today. Very simple tune. The lyrics are the highlight of this song.

Don't know why by Pat Metheny - His rendition of this is pure beauty. Check it out on youtube and try it out. Its kicking my butt so far.

A case of you by Joni Mitchell - Classic! Its also a pretty nice song to jazz up a bit. The progression for the intro is perfect and memorable.]]> Opinions and Polls Voodoo_Merman https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/what-tunes-are-you-learning-right-now/paged/2/#post-284906 https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/what-tunes-are-you-learning-right-now/paged/2/#post-284897 Sat, 15 Mar 2008 04:56:14 +0000
I'm doing good, I got pretty much all the song before the solo. I'm practicing the solo right now and I'm doing good too, but still work to do on the bend!]]> Opinions and Polls Clau20 https://guitarnoise.forum/opinions-and-polls/what-tunes-are-you-learning-right-now/paged/2/#post-284897
