What's the last song you learnt on guitar? - Page 2

ZeroDude · 05-16-2005, 07:31 AM

Ok, in the last few days.....................

Breakfast at Tiffany's Deep Blue Something ( Love the wee cool solo bit)
Whiskey in The Jar Thin Lizzy
I'm a Believer The Monkees
Staring At The Sun U2
Whose Gonna Ride Your Wild Horses U2
Losing My Religion REM
Man On The Moon REM
Don't Look Back in Anger Oasis
Live Forever Oasis
Cannonball by Damien Rice
Star Star by the Frames
Lola by The Kinks

Really I've decided to busk and you need instantly recognisible songs to play, instead of my own no matter how good I think they are, I'm not that good but entertaining which is a plus

I`ve finally got the sound of "Until The End Of The World" and "The Fly". It sounds quiet similar to The Edge version with a Zoom II 505 pedal.

But to play identical like The Edge is impossible.

ZeroDude · 05-16-2005, 07:36 AM

The sound of Edge in full flight as we all should agree is quite possibly one of the hardest things to recreate ever on a guitar unfortunately for us

That`s true Dude.

The last song I learned to play (yesterday) was Heartland.

Beautiful, yet so simple - the hallmark of Mr. Edge.

Joshua87 · 05-20-2005, 12:08 AM

I just learned The Fly solo.....on acoustic

I need money....

i just got a load of chili peppers song books so i'm whizzing through that at the minute. I'v gotten hysteria, stockholm syndrome and thoughts of a dying athesist by muse and i'm starting to get through HTDAAB

ImOuttaControl · 05-21-2005, 11:00 AM

Last song I learned? Hmm.. probably Original of the Species.

Lately I've absolutely hated learning other peoples stuff for some reason, which is good because I've been focusing my energy on writing my own songs

lyra14 · 05-21-2005, 12:10 PM

Until the End of the World- I've got most of the song, minus the solo. That modulation makes it tricky to pick up exactly what he's playing.

ZeroDude · 06-05-2005, 06:07 AM

Hey Joe by Jimi Hendrix
There She Goes by The La's
Yahweh Acoustic by U2
Fake by The Frames

Other than that I've been writing my own stuff and learning to play the Harmonica

whitefire · 04-03-2006, 08:22 AM

A Sort of Homecoming Live from The UF era on guitar and Running to a Stand Still on the piano.

mackemlad · 04-03-2006, 11:37 AM

UTTEOTW
Is one of the easiest u2 songs to play keep with it.
I cant solo to Save my life but i can pull that one off.
So if I can anyone can!!

Last song I learned Andy youre a star by The Killers
Cant get the tone tho but its great to play.

By the way MR Brightside is tough Hats off to you Dude!!

Any one that is interested Andy youre a star needs Capo on fourth fret. Play an A minor shape and go from there.

If playing the accoustic part are you detuning your high E string
a semitone?

If not try it! that is the way it is played what a difference it makes

Then play the E shape without barring it at positons B F# and E

Lovely!
