Look into Jim Brickman's "Simple Things" fairly simple to play- If I can play it then its easy! And it has a nice sweet rhythm to it when you sing along. You can find it http://www.musicnotes.com and search Jim Brickman- he has a few other songs that may work well, but I am fond of the "effect" Simple Things has on woman :o) Good luck and let us know how you make out!
Simple, Stylish Songs for Piano
I would like to surprise my wife by singing a song at our upcoming holiday party, accompanied by my fairly simple piano.
I have hacked around a bit with My Romance, the Girl from Ipanema, some old Beatles songs, a Stevie Wonder or two, but nothing really sounds very good to me. Perhaps the cheesey, "EZ" piano arrangments are to blame?
I have had much more luck diligently plodding through a recent Steely Dan anthology, but I suspect my singing about drugs and lust for young girls might not exactly flatter her?!?!
Do any of you play the piano or enjoy good old fashioned love songs for piano?
Any suggestions?
