For my daughter's band.

They are a 4 piece, drums, bass, guitar and me little darling singing...

They all like rock and indie but are trying to play stuff that frankly none of them are capable of playing (system of a down, evanescence ffs) (they are all 13)

Drummer is brilliant, bass is competent, guitar tries too hard and has poor sense of rhythm...and of course my daughter is brilliant too..

Come on then you music freaks, help them out

oh...nothing to over produced or with too much synth. ta.

Anything by blondie

Just about anything by Ash is easy to play, it all mostly power chords. Kung Fu is a good one, there isn't even a solo in it.

The Undertones' Teenage Kicks is the second easiest song ever written.

Nirvana, Audioslave (don't let Morello fool you, songs from Out of Exile are very very easy, try minus the solo's if the Guitarist STILL can't get the rhythm), that's about all I can think of.

Mother (Waters) 5:32

Mother do you think they'll drop the bomb?
Mother do you think they'll like this song?
Mother do you think they'll try to break my balls?
Mother should I build the wall?
Mother should I run for president?
Mother should I trust the government?
Mother will they put me in the firing line?
Mother am I really dying?

Hush now baby, baby, dont you cry.
Mother's gonna make all your nightmares come true.
Mother's gonna put all her fears into you.
Mother's gonna keep you right here under her wing.
She wont let you fly, but she might let you sing.
Mama will keep baby cozy and warm.
Ooooh baby ooooh baby oooooh baby,
Of course mama'll help to build the wall.

Mother do you think she's good enough -- to me?
Mother do you think she's dangerous -- to me?
Mother will she tear your little boy apart?
Mother will she break my heart?

Hush now baby, baby dont you cry.
Mama's gonna check out all your girlfriends for you.
Mama wont let anyone dirty get through.
Mama's gonna wait up until you get in.
Mama will always find out where you've been.
Mama's gonna keep baby healthy and clean.
Ooooh baby oooh baby oooh baby,
You'll always be baby to me.

Mother, did it need to be so high?

an all girl band? right on.

i'll suggest some girly stuff:

lillix - quicksand
donnas - outta my mind

those should be some easy jams for the youngsters.

Not an all girl band... My daughter is the only girl...which is why the lads wanna do Nirvana and System of a Down.

Still, thanks for the suggestions so far....I am getting hold of some tracks so she can have a listen....

Oi 100%...what are you implying?

**DorisInsinuate** · 07-09-2006, 09:56 PM

Polly is an easy Nirvana song, infact, it was the first song I learnted.
