Dromox · 01-09-2008, 10:12 PM

Whats the first song you guys learned on the guitar?
Mine was Roulette by System Of a Down

I think it was nothing else matters

The first song I learned on the guitar was "Mother" by Pink Floyd.

Well, the first song I learned on the guitar was actually "Another One Bites the Dust" by Queen, but to be fair, I learned the bass part, and I only "learned it on the guitar" because I didn't yet have a bass guitar.

First song I learned when I first started playing was a easy chord version of Green Day's Time of your life. But the first song I taught myself after I gave up and then got back into it again was the Chili Pepper's Under the bridge. I always remember how to play the songs that mean a lot to me (I mean as in the first song i taught myself etc.)

Kameraad Pannekoek · 01-10-2008, 05:01 AM

I'd love to change the world by Ten Years After. That was fun.

INeedX · 01-10-2008, 05:03 AM

Red Hot Chili Peppers' Venice Queen

Hero Of The Day · 01-11-2008, 06:00 AM

Other than Smoke On The Water, i learned Enter Sandman, Money by Pink Floyd, and one by Metallica.

Lochmon · 01-11-2008, 10:34 AM

The first song I tried playing was Seven Nation Army by the White Stripes, but the first song I actually learned was Fall Children by AFI.

And now...I don't remember how to play either one of them.

Cirrus_Minor · 01-11-2008, 02:26 PM

The opening solo in Shine On You Crazy Diamond was the first thing I ever played.

Stringbender · 01-11-2008, 06:47 PM

I gotta go with what Zephyr said- I know that I'd love to change the world was amongst the first 10 or 20 songs I first started messing with.
The absolute first I think was "All day and All of the NIght" by the Kinks..
swwweeet Lord am I dating myself here or what?? LOL.
Others that were firsts on the list were Heaven and Hell by Sabbath and Godzilla by Blue Oyster Cult, but I think I was messing around probably right after I stopped watching Sesame Street so I really can't recall those days with absolute clarity...

Stringbender · 01-11-2008, 07:28 PM

First song learned.
"Far Beyond The Sun" -Yngwie Malmsteen.
yeahh. right..LOL!
I just always wanted to throw that line out there and watch someone's face..
no- it was actually the basic stuff.

You are amazing.

Stringbender · 01-11-2008, 11:28 PM

Just joking around. but I'd LOVE to watch somebody's face if I could give that answer with a straight face.. that's the equivalent of saying you learned Toccata and Fugue before you learned to tie your shoes or something..

That's fun to do. I like to tell people (on a completely unrelated subject) that I chose my college because they were the first ones to send me informational literature and that I chose my major because the books were cheap.

Hero Of The Day · 01-12-2008, 02:34 AM

The first song i learned all the way through was freebird.... and im not joking. I had to learn it, and even though it took 3 months, i feel great that i learned it.

BRD · 01-12-2008, 03:37 AM

Hey! I love that song. Although, playing it on the guitar isn't easy, it's still a neat tune.
