Gimme, gimme more~~

For the more observant, you'd probably notice that those are the lyrics for Britney's new song. 'Gimme More'
What am I doing using it as the title of my post??(I'm NOT a big fan of Britney, so...)
Actually, Diyana(one of my housemates) have been wanting to learn to play this song on the guitar because according to her, she wants to learn to play more singable songs now. Erm, yeah... 'Nice' song choice!! 'It's sooo singable and not slutty'!!! (sarcasm there just in case you don't get it)
Of course, me being me, totally don't agree with it and objected her suggestion that I learn it first and teach her... I mean seriously, eventhough I've never heard of the song at that time, why would anyone want to learn how to play Britney's songs???
It's just... well, it's just not understandable.
After hearing the song and the oh-so-not attractive video clip, it confirmed what I said to Di earlier that all guitarist should just stay away from her songs(unless you're paid to play it. Haha..)

Well, lo and behold!! Yesterday, guess who started learning this song?
Yup!! Me... and Taq.
I was sceptical at first. But, then Taq made me listen to Marie Digby's version of the song. [for those of you unfamiliar with Marie Digby, she's a YouTuber who just became famous because of her great guitar playing skills(ok, at least by a woman's standard), her super-nice vocals and of course having gorgeous looks only helps it right??=) Check out her version of Umbrella that got her famous]
Her version of 'Gimme More' was waaaaay better than Britney's(like duh~~).
I was actually more interested in learning how to play the song cause the chords she used aren't the ones I'm familiar with and besides she did make the song worthwhile to learn.

So, there we were, Taq and I, learning how to play the song[wearing our telekung... Selekeh btul!! Mengaji kan lebih bagus, Taq??=P Itulah namanya meroyan. Meroyan sebab sakit hati dengan OSCE yang tak memuaskan hati!!! (OSCE is one of the exams I had this winter. It generally tests the our clinical skills, like how you deal with patients, taking their history, performing tests, knowing about diseases and their symptoms, etc.) ]

I could say we kind of succeeded in learning the song. Well, at least dapat ah chord ape yang dia guna and the strumming pattern. With more practice, we'll probably be invited to be guitarists for Chris Crocker's mini consert. Haha...(another YouTuber. But, erm... not a guitarist.)
For those of you still feeling weird as to why I spent my precious time learning this song, well take a listen to Marie Digby's version, then we'll go from there=)

P.S: Note to self and Cauliklaffters! If it's not Mr Peter, any of our friends, or Indian Moon ringing the bell, ignore it. Especially, if they ask where Tesco is. PERV!!!
