@ odjobbabe and the "fifth chords"

you're obviously not that musically inclined, as an interval (such as a fifth) is just that: two notes. as such, you can't have fifth chords (chords being at least three intervals being played at once). it's as if you've missed the first half or something (as in 'minor 7 flat 5 [-7b5] chord')

@ gretin:

basically if you learn guitar through conventional tuition, whether you like it or not you're going to learn jazz/blues. i don't really like much jazz or blues at all, but i am a proficient jazz player because it's just the way guitarists get taught (people just don't teach classical guitar like they used to in the super strict age of black and white :/)

@ music difficulty:

most of the time, difficult music isn't enjoyable and is usually only enjoyable because it is impressive. people greatly underestimate how extremely difficult it is to write something that's both very simple and very effective. one of my favourite songs only has 5 chords in it, and the melody rhythm is all minums.
