Still not J-rock star
10/5/07 20:34Searching the Japanese sites for a TAB of Bump of Chicken's Onaji Doa wo Kuguretara led me to a lot of students who had learned to play the song on their guitars. Later I figured out that the Japanese for TAB is TAB, and found what I was looking for-- and I learned why so many students were learning the song: it's dead easy. It's a very slow song-- and the chord progressions are very easy, while still being musically interesting, throwing in an Bm7 and an A7 into the usual I-IV-V progression.
In fact, if I had a little less pride you'd see a link to an mp3 of my cover of the song. But it's out of my range, I think-- and in fact I can't find any place on the scale where it's neither too high nor too low for me.
Maybe I need to try "Diamond," which goes jouzu ni utaenakute ii sa, it doesn't matter if you can't sing...

OMG. I guess you can't be good at everything; Motoo is a fine songwriter and a fine artist, and... well, it's possible that he's an excellent guitarist who knows that you don't need to show off. At any rate, "Diamond" is so easy to play! I am happy now. Because I was getting sick of "Bad Moon Rising."
