I need to get over myself and just learn Wonderwall. Everyone in college who just got a new guitar would play that song and only that song. So I always associated it with people who couldn't really play. At the time I thought I was more than a notch or two above that level. And then I probably thought telling the girls nearby how easy it was would be a good icebreaker. I can't believe they didn't flock to me.
Fantastic list Sean. By fantastic, I mean, it's practically my whole list of well known tunes. Plus a million more, most of which I think are great tunes.
