Justin, I'm 75 years old and think like a 35 year old man, I fool around with the guitar and I taught myself but your song lessons are great. My wife passed away 10 days ago and my heart is broken but life must go on. These 10 songs are great I would love to play them but I need a guitar because I had to sell my guitar, as soon as I'm able to I will get an acoustic guitar. Thanks for being a great teacher!
As a 67 yr old deciding to learn to play guitar I love hearing stories like this. Occasionally I start telling myself that I should act my age because only teenagers get excited about learning to play, then I think about how much joy I've been getting out of it and realize I must be a teenager at heart.
Iâm 71, and it does take longer for old dogs to learn new tricks, but working things out on a guitar is a fun challenge. So go for it, boys. The kids donât need to have all the fun.
@@joelmckinnon3929 no matter what age, you can and should always be excited about learning, no matter what it is :)
So sorry for your loss! Music is a great place to seek comfort. đđđȘ
Omg, Iâm so sorry for your loss. I hope you have a strong support network. Music is healing, even when played amateurishly and only for ourselves. Best wishes!
#10-The Joker
#9-Sweet Caroline
#8-Let It Be
#7-Margaritaville
#6-Wish YouWere Here
#5-One More Time
#4-Free Fallin
#3-Brown Eyed Girl
#2-Wonderwall
#1-Country Roads
Thanks for these lessons Justin
That vocal performance of ...Baby One More Time was surprisingly epic
Cheers!
Ambitious you could say, but Justin always seems up for a challenge.
@@justinguitar Your singing has come so far over the last few years. It's very cool!
Thatâs the one where I thought âok, letâs skip that one bc people wouldnât have the faintest idea what song I would be playing.â
Try Dm instead of the Dmajor in this one, if the D throws you.
I don't regret telling the restaurant owner he had two epic guitarists visiting that night. The night was astronomical. â€
Justin is back!
Yes I am!! :)
Cool, thanks Justin, a legend.
Welcome back!
Pls justin teach us how to play a B diminished guitar chord â@@justinguitar
â@@justinguitarplease teach us how to play a B diminished guitar chord
I'd add Peaceful, Easy Feelin' and Wagon Wheel. Both fairly simple and people love to sing along.
15 years ago Justinâs video taught me the intro to Wish You Were Here and I love remembering him sing the cords! Over a month I learn it and made my entire family hate the best song of all time!
I played it for my mother once. When I finished, she said "That's lovely! So romantic! Then he shot himself."
Really appreciate what you do Justin. I am 72 and thanks to you I have never given up learning and enjoying playing. Thanks so much for being there.
Thanks Justin, Iâm 68 years old and I found you about 10 years ago when you started doing videos, I learned how to play songs from your song books and I now do open mics and some volunteer music events here in my Oregon hometown. Thanks Justin!
hey, I'm 58, and I just started last year -- so maybe there's hope! thanks!
It's never too late. Just keep on rocking đđđž
Wait, there are Justin C. Songbooks?!
I play a lot in a band but also solo. Few solo songs that go over well in a mixed crowd: Lyin Eyes, Take it Easy, Sweet Home Alabama, Jolene, Chicken Fried, Purple Rain, Proud Mary, Santeria, 3am, American Pie, Boot Scoot Boogie, Jack and Diane. All crowd favs when I play, including many you listed. I do an acoustic version of Sweet Child o Mine that is popular. Cheers!
my top song in this occasion is Have You Ever Seen The Rain by Creedence. A strong intro and a well-known song.
other ones are:
- Behind Blue Eyes by The Who
- Living next door to Alice by Smokie
- Folsom Prison Blues by Johnny Cash
- Fairytale Gone Bad by Sunrise Avenue
- Losing My Religion by REM
- Boulevard Of Broken Dreams by Green Day
- Personal Jesus by Depeche Mode
Learning Have You Ever See the Rain from Justin's video now. Love that song and hope to feature it in my repertoire soon!
im 30, and Justin you are a Core memory when I picked up the guitar 15yrs ago. Your instructionals cut through all the balogna on the internet and made sense of it. I vividly remember studying your right hand on the Neon-John Mayer instruction video, I would slow it down and everything. I always thing about your "singing+playing at same time" videos and your "Jazz chord" lessons. You are AWESOME Justin. I'm glad you are world recognized now. You deserve it man, you've done so much for the guitar community and you've helped so many people!!
Justin is amazing. I started playing my guitar when I retired, 60. He teaches at a pace that is conducive to the learning level you are in. 100% recommend
This is great and very helpful in such a situation. I would suggest a few more songs:
- Sunny Afternoon (Kinks)
- Daydream (J.C.Sebastian)
- Heart of Gold (N.Young)
- Teach Your Children (C,S&N)
- Streets Of London (R.McTell)
- Norwegian Wood (Beatles)
- If I Had A Hammer (T.Lopez)
- Mellow Yellow (Donovan)
- Wild Thing (Troggs)
Heart of Gold!!! đ
Sunny Afternoon is a good one!
Throw in something from My Chemical Romance...easy.
And the kids will FREAK out!
best campfire guitar player advice video ever.
Hi Justin. I'm 67 years old and picked up a guitar for the first time 10 years ago in order to fulfill a dream....to play at my 60th birthday party. With the help of your online lessons and 3 (very patient) friends I was able to do it. At my 60th we played Brown Eyed Girl (Van Morrison), Time Of Your Life (Green Day), Walk Of Life (Dire Straits) and Wetsuit (The Vaccines) to over 100 guests. Wetsuit specifically had a special meaning to me as it did reflect very much how I felt. Since then, I've lapsed. I keep meaning to practice but never seem to have time. Maybe I need a goal to aim for....my 70th? Anyway, thank you for all you do for us learners; I for one certainly appreciate it!
Hi Justin, like many others here, I'm well over 70 (77), didn't start playing till I was 69, and your leasons are great. Keep it up, and we will try and keep up!
Best guitar teacher! Thank you for all your videos and lessons, Justin!
Justin, I'm in my 60's and started learing the guitar during lockdown. Found your channel and have never looked back, I'm hooked. Your teaching style and structure to your courses is exceptional, you are the best in the world without a doubt.
Thanks Justin! 40 year old here getting back into playing again and haven't been a consistent player since my teens where it was my life and played in bands. Been taking your online lessons and find you to be the perfect teacher suited for my learning style and so grateful you post so much invaluable information for free. I've also bought annual membership to your app which is so fun to jam along with and goes great with the lessons.
Brilliant post Justin. I am another of your 70 year old students, for about 4 years now after a 40 year hiatus in playing guitar after graduating from university. Thanks so much.
Here at the request from the newsletter. I'm a total noob, grade 1 module 4 still, and I'm able to do more than I ever thought I could thanks to you and your team. I took lessons when I was 16 but really had no patience. Now at 54 I'm having a great time learning and am so grateful I was recommended to you!
That's about the level I was a couple weeks ago when I agreed to play a song for a party for volunteers at Lighthouse for the Blind in SF. The only thing I was comfortable with was Three Little Birds, but it was perfect for the occasion and they loved it. Thanks Justin for making it possible!
Love this list... Exactly what I need. Thank you Justin !
Creep / No Surprises / High & Dry - radiohead
any/all top 10 Beatles song
We will rock you/ Bohemian - queen
Brown Eyed Girl / Gloria - Van Morrison
Runaway Train - Soul Asylum
No Rain - Blind Melon
More Than Words - Extreme
Knockin' on Heaven's Door - Bob Dylan or GNR version
Moon River - Audrey Hepburn
Mr. Bojangles - Sammy Davis Jr.
and lots more......
Runaway Train. Your speaking my language there.
My favorite guitar teacher hands down!
Justin, thank you for these suggestions. My go-to songs are Something (Beatles), Hotel California (no capo), House of the Rising Sun, Let It Be. In progress songs are Sitting on the Dock of the Bay, For What Its Worth, Helpless (Neil Young), Peaceful Easy Feeling. You have given me food for thought and several new songs to learn. Thanks again!
I've never played Hotel California with a capo.
I am happy that I found your teachings on guitar, Justin! You are a very heart-centered person and I am learning a lot and enjoying playing guitar under your instruction.
My favorite parts were the intros for The Joker, Sweet Caroline, and Margaritaville-- so cool to see how they're done. Great vid, thanks so much for your cheerful spirit and spot-on teaching! đ
Teach Your Children is the favorite of our mixed age family and friends parties here in America. Others are You Ain't Goin' No where (a good starter), Me and Julio , Folsom Prison Blues, I Shall be Released , Walk Right In, Charlie on the MTA ( we're in Boston). Songs on your list that we like are Wish You Were Here, Sweet Caroline, and especially, Country Roads. Common requests for me are
Danny Boy, Over the Rainbow , Blackbird, and Here Comes the Sun ( that none of us can play through cleanly the first time!
A lot of these songs I've leaned from you in the last 7 years since I retired. Ive leaned more than 100 songs of my life and my sons and now grandchildren, and we have three generations that play at annual sing alongs. So thanks, "You're Still the One" and I recommend your site to the younger generation starting out!
Gotta say - Justin's email that brought me here...
Just showed me how much I actually care and support Justin. It's the first mass email, in probably a decade, that has made me "do" anything.
But reading "Can I ask a Quick Favor?" - from Justin - meant I immediately had to carefully read it, and immediately come here to show what little support I could.
Thanks Justin, for all the years you've put into this, and everything you've given to the world.
Thank you Victor - appreciate the support :)
I'm more of a folky, so I suppose my 'party list' would be a bit different...but 'Country Roads' would be on there, it's a song I've played since I was a teenager (now in my late 50s)! Also 'Something' by George Harrison, because if you can finger pick, the chords sound really cool and it's surprising how many people know it. Being a folky, 'Wild Mountain Thyme' would have to be on the list! It's a great one to get everyone singing, as is 'Bye, Bye, Love'. Another one that used to go down well in the pub was Lindisfarne's 'Meet me on the Corner'. And Gabrielle's 'Rise', which is a song that people don't realise they know until they hear it đ. Oh, and 'I Can See Clearly Now' is another popular one. Congrats on your new baby and thanks for all you do to encourage us to keep playing!
So happy to see all these older guitarists commenting. I'm only 65, have been playing on and off for 15 years. This is a great selection of songs, Justin! I already knew Wish You Were Here and Brown Eyed Girl. Excited to add Let it Be, Sweet Caroline, Free Falling (I'm a huge Tom Petty fan), and Country Roads to my repertoire.
Cheers mate. Sadly, most of them are AI generated bot comments :(
Justin, i am 145 years oldâŠthis lesson made me pick up the guitar again even though I canât move my arms or legs. Thanks for everything you do
so inspiring
Thanks for the support Sis, really appreciate it.
This video makes me feel 312 years old again. Man those were the days.
Love you Grandpa
My immediate reaction: Wow Justin! Your singing has improved tenfold in such a short time!
My second reaction: Of all the channels to do Top Ten lists, this is the one that does it perfectly! I've been teaching myself with JG since July of last year, and this video is essentially every song lesson you normally do, but abbreviated to basics, which is perfect for folks who have basic chords down and just wanna pick up quick songs!
All that to say, this is a great one Justin! Keep doing what you're doing.
Thank you Justin, Iâm 61 self taught. I am still learning thanks to your CZcams videos. Arthritis is starting to hamper my playing. I do feel the more I play through the pain and numbness the less of that happens. So I play something every day. Wish you were here, let it be, brown eyed girl and country roads. I Also do brain damage/Eclipse, comfortably numb, heart of gold, out on the weekend, harvest moon, for what itâs worth, the weight. Pink Floyd, Neil Young and The Band are huge for me. Learning more from The Band and Bob Dylon. Youâre never too old to learn. I did go 30 years not playing or listening to secular music. Became a worship leader in my church. About 10 years ago I started learning the songs of my youth. Just the songs that do not glorify sin. There are a lot of them. Some I simply change a word or phrase to accomplish this. I know to some thatâs horrible. Both in the church and out. I get it from both sides. I get from church folks, donât play secular music at all then I get never change lyrics of a song from others out side the church. So I mostly play for myself and my wife. Publicly almost never. I do share my original spiritual songs Iâve recorded with some of my friends and family. Thank you again for the lesson. Iâm disabled now and have plenty of time for playing and learning.
Older player here. Combination of some actual lessons and OT has helped a TON to help me play better and with less pain.
It's SO good to see you back, sharing your gifts đđ» Thank you for all you do for us.
You're the best Justin! Great set of songs! Here are my 10 that I not only play at parties and get-togethers, but are also part of my gig list. I often do 2-song medleys from music bands:
1. America - Ventura Highway
2. America - Tin Man (or Sister Golden Hair, or A Horse With No Name)
3. Eagles - Tequila Sunrise (or I Can't Tell You Why, or Take It Easy)
4. Eagles - Lyin' Eyes (or Best Of My Love, or Peaceful Easy Feelin')
5. Dave Mason - We Just Disagree
6. Jimmy Buffett - Margaritaville
7. Jimmy Buffett - Come Monday
8. Beach Boys - Sloop John B
9. Rascals - Good Lovin'
10. Stephen Stills - Love The One You're With
And just for good measure, here are a couple more fan-favs that I throw in to mix it up a bit
- Ace - How Long
- Seals & Crofts - Summer Breeze
And lot's more when I play a gig!
Some wonderful tunes there! Great choice.
Hey Justin, Iâm lucky enough to go to a regular acoustic guitar jam and the songs that always get people singing along are; Viva La Vida (Coldplay), Whatâs Up (4 Non-Blondes) and Dakota (Stereophonics). All easy and fun to play. đ
Thanks for this amazing playlist!!!
Looking forward to learning these classics.
I would add the classic CCR Have you ever seen the rain, to this list Justin
Wow! More of this this. Really helpful for for those of us who just love to play!!
Excellent, just what I need for the summer! Thanks a lot!
Thank you for this collection!
Gotta end the night with 'Hey Jude'.
Great lineup. The one that works well for me is Purple Rain . I play it in G to keep it simple. Everyone knows the chorus.
Thank you Justin! I appreciate you and everyone at Justin Guitar more than I can say.
So grateful to you, Justin. I love your work and your teaching style.
Welcome back, guitar friend! I hope that you are enjoying the new addition to your family.
Thanks!
Many thanks for the super thanks and supporting the channel. It means a lot. Cheers đ | Richard_close2u | JustinGuitar Official Guide & Approved Teacher www.justinguitar.com
Nice playlist! A few of my party favorites to add: Hotel California (Eagles), Good Riddance/Time of Your Life (Green Day), and Against the Wind (Bob Seger).
The video Iâve been searching for. Subscribed. Canât wait for part 2.
Knocking on heavenâs doors and take it easy are my go to ones
For me, "A Boy Named Sue". Also, I preform my own song, that way no one knows when I screw up.
Iâd definitely add American Pie to the list, maybe Come on Eileen and some U2 songs as well.
I love playing American Pie because I memorized it as a kid and still remember all the words. No one else at the party will know the words to the verses but everyone sing along with the chorus!
Hey I just turned 77 and Iâve been a Justin follower for a long time. I really like the generosity and honesty of personal connection that comes through with the teaching style. A great example of allowing yourself to be yourself in your practice and performance. Thanks Justin.
What a wonderful resource. Thank you!
Wagon Wheel by Old Crow Medicine Show is always my go-to.
I like "Titties and Beer" and "In-a-gada-da-veda"!
"Anyway, here's Wonderwall" is the answer to everything. Stuck on an exam question? Put this and I guarantee you'll get full marks.
Really interesting list Justin! The duo I'm in plays regular gigs as you'd expect, but we also do lots of "MemoryCafe" gigs for people with dementia and it's really important to play these kind of songs that might just spark a memory. We often get asked for songs that we don't have in our set at these gigs, so we learn them for the next time, so I would add to your list the following: Rhinestone Cowboy; Drift Away; Red Red Wine; Mighty Quinn; Make Me Smile; Lazy Sunday Afternoon and Itchycoo Park. Bear in mind that the vast majority of our audience at these gigs are 65+ (although frighteningly, not all of them!) so that dictates the age of the songs
Terrific selection of rock-solid sing-alongs. As ever Justin demonstrates how they can be played by any of us camp-fire chorus leaders and he shows how to add flourishes that can turn the performance into something more rewarding for players and listeners alike. Thanks Justin.
Great selection there Justin. I would add 'Bad Moon rising', 'Proud Mary', and 'Wild Think'. Really enjoying your online courses and song lessons, My thanks go out to you and your team.
I think the most important thing is not what you play but that you play it in a key which you comfortably sing it in.
I love what you do, Justin. Thanks for being a positive force for music education on the internet!
Thanks, Justin! Great to have you back!
Welcome back sir
Bro you know you killed it at the ski resort. I would have skipped out the back, Jack.
I really enjoy your lessons, and training of them. You have a wonderful easy going personality, and I enjoy the human stories of your busy life which mirrors many of our lives out here I'm suređ
Great to see you back! Great songs! Thanks đ
i'm a 104 year old and just love this ;)
đ
Iâm 170-something I forgot my age but I love this tutorialđ đ
Im not sure if Justin reads the comments but I personally learned to play guitar from scratch all by using his web site.I remember when he was doing videos in his room and a friend filming him.
Anyway until today I still watch and learn from his web site.
When people see or hear me play and want to learn as well I just point them to your web site.
Justin you are just phenomenal!!!
I was spending a ton of money with a mediocre instructor. Until, one day, he handed me a computer print out with some chord diagrams and Justinâs tag was on it. Long story short, Iâve been a student of Justinâs since then.
Thanks as always! I keep a few simply in the NOTES section I can pull up at anytime, or pull up your app. Thanks for sharing your family time with us!
Justin, thank you! Really appreciate the coaching and teaching!
Yea - but you are a famous guitar player! I'm a 'Living Room' (Couch) player. No comparison! đđ»đđ„. My "Go-to's have been early Beatles, some Simon and Garfunkle, Dylan, Beach Boys, and 50's/60's early Rock or Country.
HEY! Justinâs back in the house! đ€đ»
This great guy taught me all I needed to know, when I picked up a guitar for the first time at age 47. There is no better teacher. I made it on a little stage entertaining some 50 people with a few songs just 5 years later. Go for it!!
And keep up the incredible stuff you do, Justin! â€
Great comment. I am getting back into at 47 myself.
I used to be decent but really only used a guitar to help with vocals.
Now I want to really learn how to play.
Justin, BRILLIANT! Exactly what we needed! You are the best!

Something about this dude reminds me of Norm
Justin is the best - if you don't know his teaching yet and are looking for a way into learning to play guitar, I don't know of anyone better - clear, concise enough, enthusiastic, sensible and authoritative.
So true! Thank you Justin! â€ïž
Great job Justin. Always nice to follow you! Thanks
I'm 42 and I'm wondering why everyone feels the need to tell Justin their age.
đ
Zombie the Cranberrys with the wars is timely again unfortuneatly

Your enthusiasm is crazy man! Love you bro, always guaranteed to make me smile
So thankful for you my friend! I keep learning because of you.
I just loved this!! Can so relate and am terrified that although I have been doing your lessons now since Covid I cannot play a single song unaided. This has motivated me to learn at least one âjust in caseâ. Thank you and congrats on new bub
Great list. Much needed
This is surely what learning guitar is all about. Playing an accompaniment to a good sing along
Thanks Justin. Brought a big smile to my face today to hear these tunes.
Thanks Justin, just wonderful!
Hi Justin GREAT LIST!!!! On my list are "Yellow Submarine" (everybody knows the Chorus), "Obla-di Obla-da", "Knockin' On Heavens Door", "We Shall Overcome" ... easy sing-along you can tell them the next verse just before it ... just a few easy ones ... btw ... I am a 71 "youngtimer"
Great choices!!! Knockin' On Heavens Door is an awesome one to include, for sure.
Justin - thanks for all you do. Definitely the best place on the web to learn guitar. Your detailed and accurate teaching is amazing and you cover just everything anyone could want. I've been a fan for many years.
Thanks Justin. Great Suggestions.
Great lineup of songs-thanks man!
Love your courses, they are very understandable. You and your team are doing a great job! Thanks for all your effort!
Thank you, Justin!đ
A great list from the greatest guitar teacher :)
Feeling in a country song mood today, so might humbly add these to the list:
Jolene
Friends in Low Places
The Gambler
Thanks to you and your team for putting these together. My grandson and I are going to do your beginner course together. Looking forward to it!
