#team unilag(university of first choice and the nation's pride)

tolustx:
Lol. I knw what it feels lyk to vex. I ve a frnd who uses mancity agains me wen we play pes2013. Whenever he uses aguero to score an hatrick, I always bcom furious inside. Ask me why...





Because of d way jon champion makes dat comment... He says "aguero, has completed his hatrick". Always sounding lyk mockery.

TonySpike:
So, you guys don't have guitars yet? Hurry up! Get one quickly, you're missing out...

TonySpike:
Mr Elegbede205, how are you doing with your guitar practice now? Is your strumming improving now?

branks1:
Pls guys during penalty kicks I can't move my goalkeeper.I have tried all the buttons to no avail.what do I do.I play on pc

yakinholy:
.
This comment tho...
I used to be an ardent fan of PES till I discovered FiFa. Fifa is more of reasoning & grit compared to PES where one yeye guy can just score 8goals with no game sense.

Yes sir...u're absolutely right...a lil wrong too. (don't mind me).
U need music theory here sir;basic chord formation theory(1,3,5 aka d,m,s) (2,4,6 aka r,f,l) etc. and this below-

T-T-S-T-T-T-S...where "T" stands for tone(aka one step) and "S" stands for semitone (aka half step)


The C-F-G (taking C as 1) means d song is on key C.
D-G-A means d song is on key D(if D is taken as 1)...and so on and so forth.
Let me illustrate further;

Key D
d-r-m-f-s-l-t-d
1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8
D-E-F#-G-A-B-C#-D
T T S T T T S
Btw D and E(d&r)-Full tone/one whole step
Btw E and F#(r&m)-Whole step/Tone
Btw F# and G(m&f)-Semi tone/half step
Btw G and A(f&s)-Full tone/whole step
Btw A and B(s&l)- full tone/whole step
Btw B and C#(l&t)-Whole step
Btw C# and D(t&d)-Half step

From the above,using the basic 1-3-5 formation, I.e d-m-s,your I chord on key of D will be D-F#-A I.e Dmaj
(to get d minor,flatten d 3rd of any major [b] F# in dis case) which means go back a half step from F#.This will give you F.Your Dm chord will den be D-F-A


The very first step is to know the your scale interval very well.Start from any letter(C,D,E,F,G,A,B) and write till u get back to that letter.Apply the T-T-S-T-T-T-S principle.When u need a tone btw two letter and u don't get it natuarally,sharpen d next letter (btw E & F is a semitone and u need a full tone...sharpen F to give u F# and u automatically av a full tone)

On d other hand,if u need an half step and a full tone is wat occurs naturally,flatten d next letter. E.g btw A & B,u nid a half step but wat u av here is a full/whole step.Simply flatten B to give u Bb.Now u can see that u now av half step btw A and Bb(aka A# not to used interchangably tho)

Music theory is complex but interesting.U nid to be interested to know it.I knw just a lil'.

I hpe dis helped someone.I also hope my explanation wasn't too disjointed.

englishmart:
of course.
That's no big deal.

TonySpike:
This is the chord sheet for this song. Like I said, the chords are C#m, A, F#m and E as seen below.

TonySpike:
I only heard this song some few weeks ago, I think the chords are A, F#m, C#m and E. I'll see what I can do about it though...

TonySpike:
Many rock and alternative guitarists use this tuning, as I learnt. It seem the D tuning offers a compensation for their voices. Can you render your version of this song though?

TonySpike:
So, I'm gonna rate you with respect. Firstly, the way you play reminds me of how I used to play when I started early last year. I'm sure you'll improve with time definitely. Now, I noticed your guitar is seriously out of tune, please correct that. It must be in standard EADGBE tuning. Also, I think you're jumping steps in learning how to switch from one chords to another. Jumping a step in learning how to play a guitar can be costly as you might eventually have to start afresh again. Therefore, I advice that you learn how to position your fingers properly on the strings for each chord. It seems you aren't doing it rightly as your playing is kinda incoherent. This is also very important as it makes chord transition easier! It is good you started with simple open chords like G, Em, C and D. Keep it up!

TonySpike:
Did you listen to the song, sir?

TonySpike:
By the way, the Casting Crown song I recorded earlier was done using the full step down or D tuning. For those who don't know, this tuning follows the string sequence DGCFAD instead of the standard EADGBE tuning.

TonySpike:
Why? Don't you have a capo?

TonySpike:
I think your capo position should be on fret 2 or 3 depending on your voice. The strumming pattern is something like D-U-D-U-D in three pieces per chords for most part of the song. The chords used in the song are in this order: G, Em, D and C (Cadd9 most preferable).

Good luck!

TonySpike:
I seriously don't like the F chord too, but I gbadun the sound of F#m. Many songs using open chords don't seem to come with F chord though.
Can you post any recording of yours for us to hear?
