theres a song, its an old one probably 70's or 80's. it has crazy guitar in it and i think it says 'thunder ! ahh ahhhhahhhh' (they sing the ahh part lol) then says something about 'the middle of the night'

THANKS ! (link)
Thunderstruck by AC/DC


i wanna start playing
i learn fast
but i want the best guitar
what kinds are good?

fender is a good way to go, and so is ibanez, those are some nice guitars, and i would go epiphone, not gibson. epiphones are made better (i.e. no glue spill over on the frets and what-not) and a whole lot cheaper and pretty much the exact same guitar...


i have an ipod nano, like the older ones, the stick and it has the boring games, music quiz, solitare...can i download moree and are they free, does anyone know where i can download free games to it? (link)
If you look on iTunes, you can download all kinds of games...but they all cost money, and tends to be quite a bit...but I haven't checked in a while


Alright, so a few years ago I attempted to take guitar lessons. But I always thought I wasn't being taught the right way. He would only teach me how to play certain parts to songs, so I never knew anything else other than those few songs. I was wonder, if I learn how to play notes, can I transition them into chords? Like, is a chord just notes put together? Is it possible to teach myself through books? And what is the transition that I should use while learning(what should I learn first, second, ect..)?

I really hope this wasn't too confusing, I just really want to learn. And keep in mind that I am not at all musically inclined, therefore I know nothing, ha. Thanks for any help! (link)
You can teach yourself, I did for a year. But it's hard to learn any instrument without basic music theory. Your teacher was teaching you right, that's what all of them do. They teach you parts of songs to help with different techniques.
If I were you, I'd take lessons from someone. Once you start to get really good, they'll teach you an entire song. Just make sure you get a good reliable teacher.
And yes, a chord is notes put together, but it's specific notes to make different chords


what are some random songs that talk about something really random?
like bycycle race by queen (where all he talks about is wanting to ride his bike)
or all i want is you (where he talks about glue and trees)

Well, there's "The Trees" by Rush
"Too Many Puppies" by Primus
and my favorite "A Horse With No Name" by America (These guys were higher than a 747 when they wrote this one, lol)
