This list is stupid. Literally thousands of songs have simple 3 and 4 chord verses or choruses. Also, just because you can play the main riff doesn't mean you can play the song.
Yeah though Sotw isn't that easy when it comes to the solo which is pretty important to me if you want to say you can play a song on guitar (btw I can't play the solo yet) and I also can say this to well......every song on this list
And it sounds like utter shit when people play it with power chords...because that isnt the song, Its not optional...either you play it right...or youre doing your own version. Doing it with power chords is not the right way to play it...
TraceVandal actually they usually crank the clean channel so high that it gives feedback. That's how they get the dirty sound but still with clarity. I had no idea about it but I watched a video on it. It's how they never really used pedals to get their tone
These guys clearly don't play guitar. I'm not saying that most of these aren't fairly easy songs to start with, but there are much easier songs than good riddance out there.
A good first song to learn if you're playing electric guitar is Basket Case by Green Day. You'll build up lots of skills like palm muting and quickly moving power cords, and it turns out that it's extremely simple
yeah they showing their lack of amps and effects knowledge by saying that. AC/DC is pure natural distortion from turning them up loud. there is a minor exception ..Malcolm's tech would add a little GAIN during TNT because he plays the opening riff solo until the chorus....and its purely to give a little push for live shows.
Yeah I cringed when I heard that just cause it's completely wrong. I haven't looked too much into AC/DC settings, but just listening to their music it sounds fairly clean with overdrive and definitely not a whole lot of distortion.
Time of your life shouldnt be on this list also. its easy for intermediate to advanced players, but the picking part is far from easy as a beginner.... Iron Man really goes nuts from the mid on... I always skip it on guitar (and I play since 10yrs)...
Lol I love how people thought that it was bass starting off in seven nation army but really it was just the guitar with lower tunning cause most of the sound other than drums in the song just came from Jack's guitar
Having worked in a music store, I can say we never liked anyone touching the instruments, but if it looked like someone was serious about buying a guitar, he could play"Mary had a little Lamb" and we wouldn't give a fuck.
OptimisticDeath Man, you can't even compare Meg White and Mike Portnoy. All those complex polyrhythms, fast double bass work and weird time signatures Meg White does, while Portnoy just keeps that same old 4/4 beat.
Emerson Lake & Palmer, King Crimson, Yes, Genesis (Peter Gabriel era), Megadeth...I know how to play all of their songs with guitar and I am as good guitarist as Lars Ulrich is as a drummer. I am as good as Kirk Hammett.
It's not a bass guitar but it's still a bass line. Really anyone who hears seven nation army for the first time will assume it's a bass guitar because it's a guitar that's playing bass.
Wow you guys nailed it the 1st song I ever learned was Smoke on the Water, 2nd was Seven Nation Army, and 3rd was Iron Man. This was back in 2004 when I started playing
At that point it didn't really matter whether it was exactly correct or not, just playing something in rhythm and learning the frets was enough. And yes I am aware that it is open A
Easiest Songs of Green Day 1.Warning 2.Brain Stew 3.When i come around 4.Basket Case 5. Jesus Of Suburbia (dont Care Its 9 minutes. Its easy Power chords Song)
Limp Bizkit's Chainsaw had a similarly simple main riff: a power cord and a bend. I don't know the song well enough to remember whether there's a solo in there or not though, I'm not a fan of the band.
If you listen to the whole sentence it makes more sense that he meant to say 'the greatest guitarists (plural) know that (blah blah), and Kurt is no exception as in 'Kurt also knows.' no one but 15 years old girls in 1992 thought Kurt was the greatest
He didn't say Kurt was the greatest, he said the greatest guitarists understood the value of simplicity, and they are correct. Even though Kurt was far from being the most skilled, he was still a phenomenal guitarist based on the fact that he created some of rock's greatest songs with basic chords and notes. That alone makes him great. You can't deny Nirvana's greatness.
I hate when people saying that the song "I love rock n´ roll" was written by Joan Jett. Does anybody know that first version of this song is from 1976 performed by Arrows?
Petr Coufal I wouldn't be offended too much by it. There are several remakes of songs that I like, but it depends on the popularity of the singer/band to get it noticed. The fact is that that's a piece of information you can surprise people with so use it that way.
Well, House of the Rising Sun is an old folk song, but everyone says it's an Animals song. So there is that. A lot of songs that nowadays are assigned to a certain band are older songs, most of them without copyright, because they are songs that have been sung by people for ages.
OldNerdTV the animals' version of it, though, is reworked, rearranged, and performed in a style that is a lot different from previous versions. Not unlike thin lizzy's version of whiskey in the jar, which was definitive enough that metallica covered it specifically on garage inc.
He was obviously being sarcastic, Raining Blood is a very hard song to learn. Ironically I bought the tablature to Rein in Blood and learned it soon after I started playing. But then I like ridiculous challenges.
Joseph Jones You could add stuff like Another One Bites the Dust (Queen), Feel Good Inc. (Gorillaz), Longview (Green Day) or Come Together (The Beatles)
Joseph Jones Exactly, it's kinda like Seven Nation Army; It may sound difficult but it's actually really easy (I'm also playing Come Together with my band, it's such a classic song)
I wrap whole hand around neck all my fingets can still reach every string but I still use my thumb for top string placement, I use it for power cords or just mutting . iv been doing it for 20 + years now
Well try some Animals as Leaders stuff... it's by far harder than eruption. Since Eruption is just some cool tricks and mostly showoff. It's a good song and intermediate difficulty. But nothing compared to some actual impressive playing.
Here is MY list (not quite sure about the order tho) 10. AC/DC - Love At First Feel 9. Scorpions - Rock You Like A Hurricane 8. Nirvana - Come As You Are 7. Metallica - Nothing Else Matters 6. Green Day - Boulevard Of Broken Dreams 5. Motley Crüe - Dr. Feelgood 4. Megadeth - Symphony Of Destruction 3. Black Sabbath - Electric Funeral 2. Judas Priest - Breaking The Law 1. The Offspring - Gone Away
6:03 "the final chord an E7 might be tricky at first" : The moment I disliked the video because the definitely do not give a shit! The tricky chord to get right as a total beginner is the F-Chord as it requires a full-barré and therefore finger-strength. The E7-chord is actually easier than the normal E-chord, as you can play it with only two fingers! WatchMojo is bullshit!
The F-Chord was driving me crazy until someone gave me a pointer. You barre the first fret but you can curve your index finger so the top E-string and the bottom 2 strings (B and E strings) are actually pressed by the index finger since the middle 3 strings are depressed by the remaining 3 fingers. And you can transition back and forth from the F-chord to the G-chord by moving from the 1st fret as a base to the 3rd fret as a base. I've been able to get fairly good at "Night Moves" by Bob Seger using this transition combined with a the C-chord (G-F-C-F-G).
The F chord was really easy for me as a beginner if it makes it any better it’s like the C chords but holding two strings with ur index finger and moving your fingers up
it's hard if you're using a slide for it as Jack did cos you need to tune to Open E which requires you to tune the A D and G string up higher so it plays an E Chord and then you need to use the slide and work out from there
Some easy? Songs These are more just simple things with some easy parts(some have tricky solos) 1 highway to hell 2 should i stay or should i go 3 raining blood 4 helter skelter 5 love me do
Wonderwall was my breakthrough for being able to switch chords fluently. Granted I was also taking lessons and was told to start with easy transitions like C-Am, so that was probably in the back of my mind when I "accidentally" discovered Wonderwall.
Horse with no name is SOOOO EASY! It has 2 chords, and you can learn it in 5 minutes... I learned ot when I was 5 or 4, so I'm sure you can learn it ;)
ignore Simo....hey sara i learned that whole song in like mins too...out of all the songs i can play...that one is in the top 3 easiest ones i know....as for hardest one....probably All nightmare long...from Metallica...that one tires me out haha
I started playing an electric guitar at the age of eleven. I got the guitar for Christmas, but I got the present early in December. By the beginning of January, I could play the hell out of TNT. So easy.
Smoke on the water ,stairway to heaven,hotel California,freebird,comfortably numb,it's a long way to the top,satisfaction,iron man,dazed and confused,highway star,another brick in the wall,sweet home Alabama,rock you like hurricane,pour some sugar on me.. To name a few which r easy to learn 😁
I wouldn't put Hotel California in there just because the main verse progression is like 8 chords, when there is a sea of other music that is actually the same 3 chords the whole time I would imagine you have to give it to one of them.
My list 10. Photograph Def Leppard 9. Whole lotta love Led Zeppelin 8. Smoke on the water deep purple 7. It’s a long way to the top ad/dc 6. Paronoid Black Sabbath 5. Seven nation army white stripes 4. TNT ac/dc 3. Don’t stop believing Journey 2. Highway to hell 1. Pour some sugar on me
As a beginner guitarist, "Time Of Your Life" shouldn't have taken Green Day's spot. Brain Stew is the first song I learned in it's entirety, and that song is power cords going up the neck.
Really ANY other Green Day song would have made more sense. I didn't pick up Good Riddance until I'd been playing for a few years. I think the first one I learned was like... maybe Boulevard of Broken Dreams???
Yeah that was a really stupid thing for them to say. 1. AC/DC doesn't even use that much distortion and 2. It's all about balance, unless you're going for a VERY specific sound, distortion all the way up is almost always a bad idea.
We are CURRENTLY LIVE STREAMING FROM NEW YORK CITY!! WOW! CHECK OUT THE STREAM HERE: ua-cam.com/video/Ndpt4r4Re00/v-deo.html

The White Stripes didn't use a bass on Seven Nation Army - just an octave pedal. The White Stripes didn't even have a bass player.
I'm betting that 2/3 of the comments for this video will be this.
^^agree
7nation rmy isnt played with bass he uses a guitar while he plays
This list is stupid. Literally thousands of songs have simple 3 and 4 chord verses or choruses. Also, just because you can play the main riff doesn't mean you can play the song.
Smells like teen spirit is very hard due to the extra shit you gotta do with picking and your fingers
B1AC4 YT and the main riff can be hard if you can’t alternate pick for shit
You're missing the point. These are highly recognizable famous songs that almost everyone knows I'm sure as apposed to your "thousands"...
B1AC4 YT exactly lol
Try playing the WHOLE song. Including the solos!! You will fail.
So basically this is a list of songs Guitar Center hates
Doncut97 but this list doesn't have stairway to heaven
Forrest Sheadel no stairway! Denied!!
Troll guitar center
Forrest Sheadel i prefer highway to hell
You will get kicked out of guitar center if you play sweet child of mine
This guy sounds like an ukulele player in a Guitar Center
No he is the one that plays the harmonica.
Play Smoke on the Water at your local guitar shop. Instant cool. They actually like it!

did it at guitar center
didnt end well
Where is Dragonforce's "Through the Fire and Flames"
Wrong list dude
Ikr
Dont know DX
*XD
They couldn’t have songs that were way too easy
Holy wars? Master of puppets? Those are pretty easy for beginners
tornado of soul's solo is the easiest
One is also great for beginners
Don’t forget about eruption
through the fire and flames is easier
Alexis nolasco I would start with the Tornado of Souls solo then work your way up too technically advanced songs like smoke on the water
lol who else knew smoke on the water would be #1 before even clicking on the video
Yeah though Sotw isn't that easy when it comes to the solo which is pretty important to me if you want to say you can play a song on guitar (btw I can't play the solo yet) and I also can say this to well......every song on this list
Ano right
To be honest
I think seven nation army should be number one
Sotw ain't that easy
"Turn the amp to ELEVEN!" shows Dylan playing Knocking' on Heavens Door. LOL
Samuel Kaplan jokes on u the amp only has 10
It’s a Spinal Tap reference
my amp only
goes to 10
As Jason said: You didn't get the reference. ?v=uMSV4OteqBE
You're on 10 all the way up, you're on 10 on your guitar. Where can you go from there?
Where?
Through the Fire and Flames should be the first place
Oh wait, wrong video
No its very simple just an a5 and em chord.
Seven Nation Army isn't played with power chords. It's played with major barre chords in open A tuning, using a slide.
THANK YOU.
Purple Man-Pig It can be
And it sounds like utter shit when people play it with power chords...because that isnt the song, Its not optional...either you play it right...or youre doing your own version. Doing it with power chords is not the right way to play it...
The opening also isn't a bass guitar, but an electric guitar with an octaver
Still the easiest song ever.
Not to be that guy.... but ACDC hardly plays with their distortion "all the way up". If anything it's pretty mild distortion.
TraceVandal actually they usually crank the clean channel so high that it gives feedback. That's how they get the dirty sound but still with clarity. I had no idea about it but I watched a video on it. It's how they never really used pedals to get their tone
Tristan Radeka they also turned up treble and middle and cut the bass lower, which gave a more cranked feeling
I was thinking that too
or you know, a think called overdrive
you LOVE to be "that guy" just admit to it and move on in your life.
Watch mojo knows less than my dog about guitars.
Tom 0101001 yo your dogs fuckin smart then
Actually... he's right.
My pet rock knows more about guitars then they do
I was very dissapointed about #1
Yeah tell me about it nice script “ if you know a e power chord a A power chord and a g chord” ARGHHHHHH x30 facpalm
So basically the songs you shouldn't play in Guitar Store
dude no stairway
Joe Swarbrick denied..
"No Stairway... Denied!" - Wayne Campbell
no puppets either
why knot?
Let me guess, Smoke on the Water is top spot
Daniel N
You were right dude......but it is one of the easiest riffs to play......so we should have all seen that coming truthfully XD
As Blackmore said it: I heard it a lot of times being played.. but not one time being played.
Daniel N I was surprised Free Fallin' wasn't up there
Daniel N you would be surprised
I'm pretty sure that's the first riff anyone has ever learned (I learned it when I was four) 😂
These guys clearly don't play guitar. I'm not saying that most of these aren't fairly easy songs to start with, but there are much easier songs than good riddance out there.
Collin Wolf I’m in beginner guitar and my teacher gave that to us but I wasn’t ready for it
Collin Wolf yeah the picking is quite tricky and the strumming for the second part of the song is really difficult because it’s very fast
Yeah like when I come around and basket case
Basket Case, Boulevard Of Broken Dreams And When September Ends are way easier, it’s pretty obvious they think acoustic = easier
Those last words,
Just reminded me of Exodus
A good first song to learn if you're playing electric guitar is Basket Case by Green Day. You'll build up lots of skills like palm muting and quickly moving power cords, and it turns out that it's extremely simple
Señor Duckles welcome to paradise is easier, has less changing of hands position
Good point, forgot about that one
Señor Duckles Thank you...I thought for sure Basket Case would be on the list. Easy AF!!!
Still an awesome riff tho.
do When I Come Around first, as it's slower.
zaphod77 I haven't even tried to play When I Come Around
Where is eruption?
Or Thunderstruck...
Matthew Cyktor or cliffs of Dover
Or diffs of Clover
Matthew Cyktor or holy wars
Matthew Cyktor ha you're dumb
Smoke on the water, and Iron man are easy to play casualy, but if u gonna to play they correctly u will see they are very hard. ;)
I like ur dark side of the moon profile
Saying play ACDC on heavily distorted guitar you made a mistake
yeah they showing their lack of amps and effects knowledge by saying that. AC/DC is pure natural distortion from turning them up loud. there is a minor exception ..Malcolm's tech would add a little GAIN during TNT because he plays the opening riff solo until the chorus....and its purely to give a little push for live shows.
Yeah I cringed when I heard that just cause it's completely wrong. I haven't looked too much into AC/DC settings, but just listening to their music it sounds fairly clean with overdrive and definitely not a whole lot of distortion.
He must get his knowledge from someone works at Guitar Center
Damn right, thinking the same. Their signature sound is a touch of overdrive.
Glad that I wasn't the only one cringed by it...
Boulevard of Broken Dreams is also an option for beginners.
What are you talking about
True! That's the first song my band ever played, in 8th grade.
What about American idot
Wasn’t the “Bass” portion of seven nation army just a guitar put down an octave?
It was a tuned, acoustic electric
It is put down an Octive but best played on an old hollow body electric guitar
@Ch1nmus1c 1 and tune the guitar to Open E
Yep

How is Iron Man and Smoke on the water easy... they go nuts during the solo..Only thing easy is the starting riff not the whole song.
Andy Gray I think they said it was ready because of the riff bc yeah I agree that the solo is NOT easy
Keep in mind that there are 2 solos...one on the outro is bonkers
Time of your life shouldnt be on this list also.
its easy for intermediate to advanced players, but the picking part is far from easy as a beginner....
Iron Man really goes nuts from the mid on... I always skip it on guitar (and I play since 10yrs)...
Andy Gray
You can play Smoke On The Water on one string dude. 0-3-5 0-3-6-5 0-3-5 3-0.
Yeah, Iron Man is maybe the hardest of these solos.
Satisfaction is a thousand times easier than any song of the list.
Daniel San GMR exactly what i was thinking
Satisfaction was the first guitar riff i learned. Smoke on the Water wasn't written yet.
i dont think he plays guitar. Teen spirit takes some pretty advanced strumming technique
Daniel San GMR AGREED. I learned it in 2 minutes

There's no bass in Seven Nation Army. The verses are still a guitar, just through a wammy octave down.
AtLeastJake looked in the comments cause I knew somebody would point it out
AtLeastJake I was literally about to comment it
But it considered a bass line put not played on a bass
AtLeastJake even tuned down to open a
It's not a bass guitar but it's still a bass line. Really anyone who hears seven nation army for the first time will assume it's a bass guitar because it's a guitar that's playing bass.
Wow you guys nailed it the 1st song I ever learned was Smoke on the Water, 2nd was Seven Nation Army, and 3rd was Iron Man. This was back in 2004 when I started playing
well you probably learned seven nation wrong because its actually in an open tuning and uses a slide, its not done in standard
At that point it didn't really matter whether it was exactly correct or not, just playing something in rhythm and learning the frets was enough. And yes I am aware that it is open A

I should learn to play these songs sometime.....if I can play them at all.

deekat3279 “why don’t you just get a louder speaker and put it to 10” “.......this goes to 11”
Seven nation's first is played with a guitar but has an special effect that makes it sound like a bass
First part*
I believe that he used a Whammy Pedal an Octave Down to emulate a kind of Bass sound
John Frusciante that's right. uses open A tuning and a slide
John Frusciante Pretty sure there is no whammy pedal just octave
Chris Jobe a whammy pedal is an octave pedal
I love power chords and occasionally use Drop D.
ライガー well drop D makes every chord a power chord so there you go. Good learning techniques
Drop D makes power chords usable with one finger.
ライガー i usually stick to drop d cause i have a floyd on my guitar (its a JEM) and can be a bitch to retune but it stays on tune once properly fixed
Were is (I can't get no) satisfaction? I think its easier than smoke on the water
Sevan nation army is so easy that even the wite stripes could play it.
cody49701 Yeah but it's not Power Cords

Someone else caught that. They mustn’t have watched “It Might Get Loud” 🤦♂️
They use a bass pedal if im not mistaken
They used an octave pedal and put it an octave down
Brain stew- Green Day
It’s pretty easy too
Because its all power chords
Not to be that guy, but seven nation army doesn't have any bass whatsoever. they used a guitar with an octave effect.
Omar Khaled Makes sense, considering there are only two band members.
PersonalPerson lmao
Makes sense, but it also works on a bass. I'm a personal fan of it just as a little show off thing cause its easy and everyone knows it.
Omar Khaled Huh... the more you learn, the more you know.
Omar Khaled you can also play it on a 7 string with the lowest string downtuned to A
did you just say the G note
...
Gee Way The Lemon When I was a young boy my father took me into the city to see a marching band... oh and it's a g note on piano not guitar

Through Fire and Flames, fucking god dammit easy, for babies basically ;)
Yeah, so easy, even a man without arms could play it ;)
Just smash his head against the guitar, or though thats more effective if you want to play like lil Wayne.
so easy, I can't even do it 100% perfect in Guitar Hero
I could play through fire and flames when I was a fetus.
Which one?
Where is eruption by van halen?¿?
NeumaticSubset0 to easy for Watch Mojo ;)
I don't see this as bait since it's actually a pretty easy song compared to some other music lately....
Lol so easy haha
Well try some Animals as Leaders stuff... it's by far harder than eruption. Since Eruption is just some cool tricks and mostly showoff. It's a good song and intermediate difficulty. But nothing compared to some actual impressive playing.
Here is MY list (not quite sure about the order tho)
10. AC/DC - Love At First Feel
9. Scorpions - Rock You Like A Hurricane
8. Nirvana - Come As You Are
7. Metallica - Nothing Else Matters
6. Green Day - Boulevard Of Broken Dreams
5. Motley Crüe - Dr. Feelgood
4. Megadeth - Symphony Of Destruction
3. Black Sabbath - Electric Funeral
2. Judas Priest - Breaking The Law
1. The Offspring - Gone Away
6:03 "the final chord an E7 might be tricky at first" : The moment I disliked the video because the definitely do not give a shit! The tricky chord to get right as a total beginner is the F-Chord as it requires a full-barré and therefore finger-strength. The E7-chord is actually easier than the normal E-chord, as you can play it with only two fingers!
WatchMojo is bullshit!
abcdf Em is also easy, also requiring two fingers.
The F-Chord was driving me crazy until someone gave me a pointer. You barre the first fret but you can curve your index finger so the top E-string and the bottom 2 strings (B and E strings) are actually pressed by the index finger since the middle 3 strings are depressed by the remaining 3 fingers. And you can transition back and forth from the F-chord to the G-chord by moving from the 1st fret as a base to the 3rd fret as a base. I've been able to get fairly good at "Night Moves" by Bob Seger using this transition combined with a the C-chord (G-F-C-F-G).
Picking up guitar again after about 10 years since the last time I played.
Holy fuck my fingers what happened you are baby fingers.
I play a totally different "f." I shape it like... X3321X makes it easy to transition in this situation.
The F chord was really easy for me as a beginner if it makes it any better it’s like the C chords but holding two strings with ur index finger and moving your fingers up

The first Sunshine of your love's Riffs are like... Easy.
DAG El Gamer. That’s a bass
come as you are?
One song per artist
Eh, it's a fairly easy riff to play but it's pretty hard to play and sing at the same time, I just suck and playing and singing though.
ohhh yeah, didn't see that. thx
feels bad man
Yeah it was the first song i ever learnt . ever
Seven Nation Army is so difficult, I bet not even John Petrucci could play it.
who cares what he can or cant play?
Leonel Cantú de Llano dude I am a beginner and I played it in one day
Leonel Cantú de Llano it's not hard u can play it with one finger
Leonel Cantú de Llano well, I played it on bass guitar. It wasn't hard.
it's hard if you're using a slide for it as Jack did cos you need to tune to Open E which requires you to tune the A D and G string up higher so it plays an E Chord and then you need to use the slide and work out from there
Some easy? Songs
These are more just simple things with some easy parts(some have tricky solos)
1 highway to hell
2 should i stay or should i go
3 raining blood
4 helter skelter
5 love me do
You forgot Cliffs of Dover. Super easy
Tristan Radeka u only need to learn it 5 minutes and u can play it perfectly
It's been said that on the internet, nobody knows when you're full of shit. I don't think that's strictly true....
Tristan Radeka Your joking my right? I haven't bothered looking up tabs but it seems like as hard as eruption or something
hazardous gaming the fact that you even have to ask if I'm joking is funny
through the fire and flames is the easiest song ever
slayer- raining blood
true that
Wonderwall was my breakthrough for being able to switch chords fluently. Granted I was also taking lessons and was told to start with easy transitions like C-Am, so that was probably in the back of my mind when I "accidentally" discovered Wonderwall.
A.K.A. My middle school days with the guitarist that thought they were cool for playing these in intermediate band.
Javier Gonzalez phhhs im sure most listeners think they are cool because they literally dont know how to play.
yes, number 1 is smoke on the water...
didnt have to see the video to know it would be number one xD
Yee
I have been learning Zombie on Ukelele, cannot wait to learn it on Zombie
No Stairway! Denied!
Doncut97 😂😂😂😂😂 party time, it's excellent
Where is Dragonforce - Through the fire and flames?
Tuosan :(
Snipound what about Sound of Silence?
Snipound yeah dude, thats TOTALLY the easiest song to learn by FAR!
Snipound through fire and flames is easy to learn? haha good joke, not really
Snipound Yeah you're right. Just grab a guitar and pick at it as fast as possible without any rhythm or tune!
And Dance of Eternity? Is so simple!
smoke on the water is the first song I ever learned to play
TeddyBear Gaming sane
TeddyBear Gaming, same
Come as you are was mine
Me too and than nothing else matters

2. satisfaction
3. seven nation army
These songs are all places! And are all so simple to play. Fun to hear, too. Thanks.
Horse with no name is SOOOO EASY! It has 2 chords, and you can learn it in 5 minutes... I learned ot when I was 5 or 4, so I'm sure you can learn it ;)
Shut the fuck up.
ignore Simo....hey sara i learned that whole song in like mins too...out of all the songs i can play...that one is in the top 3 easiest ones i know....as for hardest one....probably All nightmare long...from Metallica...that one tires me out haha
Oh my GOD I love all of these songs!!!!
I started playing an electric guitar at the age of eleven. I got the guitar for Christmas, but I got the present early in December. By the beginning of January, I could play the hell out of TNT. So easy.
Smoke on the water ,stairway to heaven,hotel California,freebird,comfortably numb,it's a long way to the top,satisfaction,iron man,dazed and confused,highway star,another brick in the wall,sweet home Alabama,rock you like hurricane,pour some sugar on me..
To name a few which r easy to learn 😁
Vinayak Shivhare Those are just riffs,theyre talking about the whole song thats easy
Vinayak Shivhare Nothing else matters..
lol. R u just naming a bunch of guitar songs? half of these aren't easy to learn
oh really show me a beginner playing intro to free bird and sweet home alabama that actually sounds like the song
I wouldn't put Hotel California in there just because the main verse progression is like 8 chords, when there is a sea of other music that is actually the same 3 chords the whole time I would imagine you have to give it to one of them.
Walk by Pantera
My list
10. Photograph Def Leppard
9. Whole lotta love Led Zeppelin
8. Smoke on the water deep purple
7. It’s a long way to the top ad/dc
6. Paronoid Black Sabbath
5. Seven nation army white stripes
4. TNT ac/dc
3. Don’t stop believing Journey
2. Highway to hell
1. Pour some sugar on me
Dirty deeds done dirt cheap was the first riff I learned
Not to be rude but the description mentions 'Zombie' twice.
John Swan Constructive criticism sir, not rude at all
“Play this with the distortion turned all the way up”
Everyone who’s ever touched a guitar before just winced
the first one is funny because angus doesnt play with alot of distortion
smells like the only nirvana song i know
Minermann22 most of people are exactly the same lol Poly and Heart Shaped Box are good ones tho
Tacy Dantas I like un bloom
Minermann22 my fave is probs territorial pissings
Minermann22 get listening
Smells like the only Nirvana song that's relevant
Smoke on the Water was the first heavy song I ever heard, first song I played on guitar on one string, first song I played with chords. Wow.
u guys forgot that song that goes like: *I love you bitch, I'm never gonna stop loving you....... BITCH* you could find it on UA-cam 😂
jawan pace 4poundz
jawan pace I wish more people got this
Hardwired To Self Destruct I'm pretty sure everyone gets it
oLUNAo Trust...not everyone
Hardwired To Self Destruct!
As a beginner guitarist, "Time Of Your Life" shouldn't have taken Green Day's spot. Brain Stew is the first song I learned in it's entirety, and that song is power cords going up the neck.
Evan Whitford well jaded is part of brain stew and maybe the channel thought it was to fast paced for beginners
Really ANY other Green Day song would have made more sense. I didn't pick up Good Riddance until I'd been playing for a few years. I think the first one I learned was like... maybe Boulevard of Broken Dreams???
Evan Whitford yeah brainstew or something like when i come around or american idiot
I started playing Bass guitar (not in class) but I hope I give it a shot so far.
I'm just learning tambourine. Can you do one on that?
yeah turn your distortion all the way up and it will sound like shit bruh
It really will
Yeah that was a really stupid thing for them to say. 1. AC/DC doesn't even use that much distortion and 2. It's all about balance, unless you're going for a VERY specific sound, distortion all the way up is almost always a bad idea.
Well they might be easy to play, but almost all of the riffs i love, and they became hits for the bands.. Keep it simple and ROCK..
do an ukulele one, or drum or bass!!!
Darryl Surbakti fun fact: Bohemian Rhapsody's 1st and 2nd verse is easy to play by the Ukulele just using G, C, Em, Am, D, Dm.
Alpha Tumanan fun fact: the drums, bass and guitar of Seven Nation Army is very easy to play
I was just coming to see if feel good inc. was here
2D: sunshine in a bag ? Anyone?
Soul taker 213 you mean the baseline? Also "sunshine in a bag" is from Clint Eastwood not Feel Good Inc.
Sweet child o’ mine is pretty easy. Easier than house of the rising sun lol
nickberredo the maybe the riff is but the whole song is not
Yd but only the riff I learned it only in 15 mins😂
