Finally chords and progressions
In the key of Bm we move from chord VI – V – IV, before a II – V takes us back again to VI, like this:
||: Bm | A | G | Em A :||
The best thing about songs with just one simple loop is that you can learn it quickly and then move on to focus on dynamics, breakdown sections, and playing well together.
As a guitarist, the challenge lies in playing something that works with all the keyboard parts.
Finally was the first song CeCe Peniston wrote
Teenage beauty pageant and backup singer CeCe Peniston wrote a poem in a chemistry class which turned into her first song, the title of her debut album and breakthrough single.
As a worldwide hit in 1991, the song was everywhere and so was CeCe. This became overwhelming for the young singer who never managed to follow up on the smash debut.
Based on a four-bar, piano-led chord progression, this is a great song for bands who play weekends for people who want to dance.

Song Book
As a guitarist, a repertoire is the greatest asset you can acquire. It is your ticket to playing with other musicians.
To help you on this journey, I’ve gathered tunes I play with acoustic duos, Jazz trios, Indie/Rock/Party bands as well as large Soul/Motown ensembles.
