I'm really getting into fingerpicking these days. Can anyone suggest any good songs for it? I'm looking for something like: Here Without You Frail Time of Your Life I wouldn't mind if they're more complex either.
1 song that i'm fingerpicking on these days is the unplugged version of BAATEIN KUCH ANKAHEE SI from the movie Metro. i also fingerpick on WHEN YOU SAY NOTHING AT ALL (ronan keating).
I'm actually looking songs which sound soft but are still fun to play. Nothing Else Matters is soft but too slow. I want stuff like Time of Your Life - Green Day. Anyway, which band is dust in the wind.
Dust In The Wind ^ i think he's talking about Dust in the Wind by KANSAS :think: you can also try "are we the waiting" by greenday or "patience" by gnr.
Yes, thats what i'm thinking too, this is song is sung by Kansas, this is a very good song, especially for guitarplayers and i've played this song aswell, maybe you guys want to hear it: https://www.soundclick.com/bands/pageartist.cfm?bandID=645920
Stairway to heaven Tears In Heaven Intro to Love Song - Tesla Intro to Sailing Ships - Whitesnake Check out this album Starkers In Tokyo - Whitesnake....Entire album is finger picked. It's a two man show. David Coverdale on Vocals and Adrian Vandenberg on Acoustic Guitar.
I don't want blues songs. The Love Song by Tesla is good. That's the kind of stuff I want. I know Clapton's big on fingerpicking but that's not the kind I want now.
Finger Picking Songs: Try the following: Eric Clapton : Hey Hey Eric Clapton : Alberta Eric Clapton : Before you acuse me essentially based on 12 bar Blues on E try them out they are awesome!! other to look forward for are Stonesour : Bother Creed : Lullaby Creed : My Sacrifice Intro Creed : One Last Breath Extreme : More Than Words Red Hot Chilli Peppers : Scar Tissues i've been playing all these for quite some time and they sound amazing!! Try Out!!
and few more if you want some dark nihilistic stuff: try out and listen to Opeth's Damnation every single song on that album is acoustic and ROCKS also try out the special edition RoadRunner Records Reunited compilation and look out for song by Type O negative's singer Peter Steele & Opeth's Vocalist.. the song is called the The Road and next you can try stuff by EVERLAST..chk out the album called White Trash Beautiful.. surely you'll enjoy!!
i know you did'nt wanted any clapton stuff..but when we first hear the word finger picking its clapton that comes to my mind so wrote those then realized that you want others... anyways.. opeth would surely have some food for your hunger.. have you tried dave mathews band..? few others are: Black sabbath : Planet Caravan Black Sabbath : Orchid Demons & Wizards : 2 songs from thier debut album you'll recognize immediately.. i 'm not able to recall the song names..one is something called fiddler on the green i guess.. try them out
Well you should be fingerpicking that song since that's what was done in the original. It isn't simple though, look up the artist Alison Krauss. Anyways other fingerpicking songs/artists not listed Dire Straits - Sultans of Swing Dire Straits - Money for Nothing Bryan Adams - Summer of '69 (unplugged version can be played finger picking style) Chet Atkins Jeff Beck Mark Knopfler And there are loads, loads more.
to tell the the best song for fingerpicking is every ni8s in ma dreams by celion dion !!"work hard for guitar"!!
if you are reallly into finger picking.. try songs and guitar instrumentals like andy mckee's--- rylyn, modoc etc ..its more fun than rocks
