More songs for guitaring

I am coming to realize that I have so many songs to play on the guitar, so many songs i love, that I don't find time to sit and properly play one song. It doesn't matter really, does it? I do what i love to do. But I didn't realize playing one song properly on the guitar, singing along with headphones on.. aah!!.. could bring so much joy. I have chosen Green day's "time of your life" song for this. I can see that brings smile to your face too :). what a lovely song?? Billy joe looking back at his life, the lyrics also do justice to the song. The lyrics are simple and make sense to everyone. All my happy days come rushing to my mind, strumming the guitar, singing along... 2 mins of bliss seems eternal to me during that time...

if you haven't listened to Kenny Roger's Gambler song, go do it now.. his bass voice with guitar in the background.. wow.. i can hear his song in my mind's ears now.. again the lyrics are nice. The lyrics has this vagueness but still good. A philosophical song. Lukka chuppi by A.R. Rahman (the maestro of rhythms) is one more song i love. I guess i am a keen observer of lyrics coz yet again I love the lyrics. Initially I didn't really realize ARR had this magic in his voice. I have thought he is not gifted with one of the greatest of voices but boy does he bring magic into his songs. I am not sure if his voice adds the sublime touch to his music or his music adds that divinity to his voice. The easy and common answer for this type of questions would be "both". Roobaroo is one awesome song again in the same movie.. This one is a 2 chord magic, jus A and D major chords.. maestro of rhythms proving to us time and again that he has this uncanny sense of rhythm. The strumming pattern in this is a lil tricky.. I found a link today that may be of some help. I haven't tried this yet. I am stuck in my lab now and I am so eager to go home to play this. But here you go guys.. http://manjlanata.livejournal.com/32623.html . you can try and tell me if that works well., coz i am jus a beginner. I will surely take some time to figure this out. Thats it for now folks. I can hear my soul asking for more music, AAR songs in particular, in his own voice..... from dil se :P.. there u go.. you know what song I will be listening to for coupla more hrs. See ya arnd.. happy times..
