The first song i ever learned to play was rockin in a free world and thats a great song, even Pearl Jam plays that live,thats saying something about being simple..

Those are awesome songs that anyone can play.. There simply yet perfect..
I have to add Indifference of pearl jam to the list. the acoustic version of Eddie and Ben Harper is so amazingly great. and it's only two chords most of the time. then I watch John Mayer playing Neon and gotta admit that his guitar skill kicks ass, but that doesn't help much if the song does not penetrate your heart

Sure you can write a great song using simple chords, but extensive and intricate chord structure makes for really interesting songs. As for writing Crash, if I had written the guitar melody I wouldn't be all that impressed with myself, but if I had written lyrics about being a peeping tom and making them come out like a love song, then I'd be proud.

HAHAHAHA

That'd be great. Show up to a guitar store, and when the music store person asks you if you want a pick as youre tryin out guitars, youre just like "nah its cool , ill just use my penis"
Forget about the reasons and the treasons we are seeking. Forget about the notion that our emotions can be swept away. Forget about the guilty, we are innocent instead, for soon we shall all find our lives swept away.
