B taught me/I'm learning to play this on the guitar. It's one of "his" songs as opposed to mine, but I know it pretty well already - it's by Moxy Fruvous, and I had a bit of an infatuation with them my first year of college. Never tried to play any of their songs before though, probably because their amazing harmonies is such a big part of their music that it's not really something that's easily replicated by just one person. This song works okay though.
I've chosen it to be the song I will learn to play with the guitar upside down, and I will learn it WELL. It's not a difficult song, but it has that one dreaded B minor chord, and that's a four-fingered chord by necessity. So it's the perfect song to learn upside down.
I am such a sucker for starkly tragic music.
