John Legend/ Mario Medley [mp3]

I find it kinda annoying that so many youtube musicians (just living-room artists) are promoting their song download on iTunes. I'm no pro, honest. But I think it's great when people listen to your music. All those guys/ girls dreaming of fame and $$$. That makes the music they play feel fake. So I just thought about it. I have the mp3: 'Let me love you'/ 'Ordinary people' Harmonica Instrumental here.
If you want, you can download it. [for free]

Guitar Photography for a Guitar Blog

Starting this blog I knew I needed great pictures for the layout to fit my style. So I went to my moms house, stole (borrowed without asking) her Canon pro-cam, and shot away.

To fall back on the story. I used to play the guitar. I'm right handed. But having a 'what seems to be' permanent left wrist injury, I can't grab the chords anymore, without hurting myself.

After a while I figured I go play the guitar left-handed, using my good hand, my right hand, to grab the chords. It's hard. It's boring. So to keep my motivation high: I need this blog!

Do you like my progression, and the things I'm playing? Don't hesitate, pick up that old guitar, or buy a cheapo and follow along. Ask away. The first exercise I did is up here!

Anyway back on the photo's. I shot pics for the blog. I like them, guess it would be fun to share.



I thought I might use these fine flowers, but didn't. Still I like the picture. much.

John Legend / Mario | Medley



*A new challenger appears*
Just kidding. It's a friend.
But what is this? We're playing Mario's 'let me love you' and all of a sudden - a smooth transition - to John Legend's 'ordinary people'???
Well, luckily Kasper showed me how to play this song left-handed. I'll show you the chords, no problem. Look forward to my next blog-post.

Still on the to-do list:
- Let me love you, step by step practice.
- Ordinary people, chords
- What to do on acute wrist injury/ pain?


Also check out a nice way to play this song on your own (Guitar Only)

If you like this song, I've got the mp3 up for download!

Spicing up the song | Mario - Let me love you



Using the capo in the third fret, it's easy to play Mario's 'Let me love you'. In fact if you don't have someone singing to it, it may become boring.
With my regular guitar I tried to spice up the song a bit. And make it more interesting to play.
The chord-forms using a capo are: | Am | Em | D | D :|
Without a capo the real chords are (+3) | Cm | Gm | F | F :|
Lets see how far I will get with the left.

Lupe Fiasco - Superstar (ft. Matthew Santos) [RnB Chords]

Some tune I did a while ago on the diatonic harmonica. When my wrist hurt I would stop playing barre chords and find ways to play songs by open chords. So I changed the chords a bit, FM7 is easier to play open than F. I would recommend every beginner to get a CAPO as soon as you can. It allows you to play to way more songs with the open chords you already know.


I didn't need my right handed guitar with this. You can still make quite some music when barely able to play open chords. The bass loop is inspired by one of Kasper Burger's and thats a bass loop he did on one of my chord progressions haha.

You should already be familiar with this open DM7 if you also practiced 'Une Belle Histoire'. This is great, I'm learning to play the guitar lefthanded by just playing songs I like and at the same time there's this linked build-up level of difficulty being created. It might as well become a method.
