Need help with song, theme, jingle choices
« on: October 04, 2012, 06:58:42 PM »
didn't  think this would be for the music forum so I decided to post here

I give presentations and play my guitar as part of it

the age group is usually 14 to 18 and i want to pick songs etc that are recognizable regardless of age

in 5 minutes, I've chosen super mario theme, carol of the bells, beethoven's 5th, fur elise, star wars theme, beat it, enter sandman riff, walk this way, simpsons theme, dueling banjos, halloween theme, sweet child o mine intro, rihanna s&m, usher - yeah, starship, last friday night, domino and i end with evil by yngwie

I am just looking for more suggestions or what i can tweak, add, remove, take out

thanks

Not sure I know enough about these presentation. Are you playing the songs start to finish? When are you playing them, how many are you playing, who are you playing them to in what kind of setting? Are the people watching because they've paid to, or have they chosen to, or are they a captive audience? If you only play your guitar for part of it, what does the rest consist of?

I'd like to help if I can, but I don't know if I've got enough context! I don't know why you'd add a song or take one out. What's your time limit - are you going to be playing all of those songs?

Perhaps you should ask bosk to reverse the "e" and "a" in the second half of your user name.

Are these songs that are going to be recognizable by anybody in the 14-18 age group, or should they be recognizable by anyone regardless of age?  Either way, a good portion of your selections don't make much sense.
