Q. John Lennon, Paul McCartney, Michael Jackson, Curt Kobain, Freddie Mercury, Elvis, George Harrison.
From those above who is the best musician? This means best lyricist, composer, etc. Just overall better one not just in specific areas. Give a reason why, please.
A. Freddie.
Freddie pretty much carried Queen through their first 3 albums. He not only wrote most of the songs in the beginning, but he also arranged most of the music including writing a lot of the guitar solos, using the piano and then having Brian redo them on guitar. Most of the harmonies? 90% of the harmonies are Freddie singing all the parts with Roger singing the extra high parts. Remember, Freddie had over a 3 1/2 octave range. Although Freddie down played his talent as a pianist, he was actually masterfully talented. Listen to him play. It's actually quite incredible. Now, how 'bout that Bohemian Rhapsody? The song contains almost 60 different chords. You basic rock song? Three to six. Freddie also wrote some mind-bending lyrics. Also some very touching and beautiful ones. Listen to The March of the Black Queen. Wow! And then listen to Love of My Life. Freddie bares it all in that song. He was so amazingly versatile. Now showmanship. Freddie beats everyone hands down. Just look at Queen at Live-Aid. Their performance, after all these years, is still regarded as the best live rock performance of all time. Yeah...I say Freddie.
Second? John Lennon. Paul McCartney got lucky the day he met him. "The movement you need is on your shoulders". That was John. He always had the best lines.
3rd...George Harrison. Only because he wasn't given half a chance when The Beatles were together. He was such a passionate writer and guitarist.
Skeeter Davis song 1963 I Can't Stay Mad At You?
Q. Can anyone give me the chord progressions for this great old Carole King song recorded by Skeeter Davis? Thanks!
Jason, thanks, but Cowboy has only the lyrics. Please do your research before you answer a question. I'm looking for the chord progressions.
Thank you Missy, but I've already clicked on over a dozen links and none of them have the chord progressions to this song. Please do your research before you answer a question.
A. Jason was right. Cowboy Lyrics.com has a link to Tabs and Chords. It will hook you up to Top 100 Tabs.com or you can go there yourself. Your question was not an easy one to begin with.
**Edit** Here's some research for you. You will find the song you requested listed in alphabetical order. There is an email address for this company at the bottom of the ad. Hope this helps.

first time performing piano with singer. Advice?
Q. ive been playing piano for 15 years now and im trying to finish my diploma abrsm now so i dont really have a problem with playing. This girl asked me to play piano for her while she sings 4 songs. The songs are 1) Stand by me -Ben E King, 2) Dancing queen -Abba, 3)wouldnt it be nice- (i think police) and 4) i just called to say i love you- stevie wonder. The problem is ive only be learning classical pieces for my abrsm exam most of my life. I can play these songs on my own but is there anything i should watch out for? Btw this is going to be played in front of students in a bar/nightclub. I was worried incase it didnt create a dance atmosphere as we dont have a drummer. Its just me and her(singer)
A. * I know this a really simple minded reminder but remember to play by chords. Don't play the melody the majority of the songs because it will compete with the singer's voice and sound amateurish.
* Watch out for her skipping around a bit lyrics while. You should know the songs inside and out and have a definite feel for each chords wise.
* Overall, just know the chords to each song well and which lyric goes with the chords just in case she forgets a certain line or to.
Remember to get practice in with her, not just having the only playing time being during the show. Practicing lets you get a feel for her and she gets a fill for you. If she's fast during one song then you know that you might have to play faster. If she slows the temp for, lets say, Dancing Queen to you know not to go faster than her.
