Google Guitar Lessons of the Best Google Guitar Songs!

Google guitar has caught on like wildfire! Not since people began strumming plastic video game guitar controllers with multi-colored fretboards have so many amateur music-lovers decided to take a crack at it themselves.  Here is a collection of some of the best google guitar songs WITH the google guitar lessons of how to play them! If you have one to add, put it in the comments below and it might get posted.

Its a lot easier to play these google guitar songs than you might think! Many people aren't aware that you DON'T have to use your mouse cursor to play the strings, you can just hit the number keys on your keyboard instead!  Just hit the numbers on your keyboard in the order shown below and you too can play the same song! Note that numbers without spaces between them are chords, so you hit those numbers at the same time!

Tip: I recommend opening a new window with the Google Guitar in it and moving it and the google guitar lessons window to opposite sides of the screen so you can see both.

Your Next American Idol is Scotty "George W" McCreery!

       Well America, your next Idol Scotty McCreery is ready to "strategerize" his way to the top of the music charts so he can "practice his love with the women all across the country." 

You gonna kiss me or not?

Scott McCreery, anointed by Fox as the next great country star has been subject to the question he may be the love child of none other than "#43" George W. Bush.  Could this be "truthificated?" Could a questionable action 17 years ago by the "W" be "revealified?"  Of course, in this day and age of politics its impossible to believe that a government leader could have a love child and keep it a secret for over a decade (Right Arnold?). Well, short of demanding a birth certificate (long form) and DNA test, we can use the same method legal courts used to determine "paternal relations" before there were DNA tests: by looking at the person-in-question next to the possible father (Maury Povich style) and having a jury vote yes or no. Therefore, I am entering the following exhibits into evidence, may it please the internet.

Scotty McCreery was recently asked about his likeness to the past President, and he had this to say, "Heck, y'all know I'm just a simple southern boy from the south, I don't think I have anything in common with President Bush.  I mean, I like baseball and country music brother, President Bush doesn't like those things, right? Also, I've heard his Spanglish, and its way better than mine, amigo."  So I guess that settles it.

Scotty McCreery also said he plans to continue to win the "hearts and minds" of his fans with creepy eyebrow movements, masculine skipping around the stage, and of course, holding his microphone like he is blowing a flute.  This is your new country star America!
