hi guys,

I'm looking for songs in 3/4, you know, the waltz type kinda song. 6/8 is good as well. I'm not that musically educated. :)

Bright Eyes - False Advertising
Elliott Smith - Waltz # 2
Nights in white satin
Everybody Hurts
hide your love away
Led Zep - Since I've been loving you ?
Jimmy Eat World - hear you me

isn't there an arcade fire song on funeral as well in 3/4

all help is really welcome, you'd do me a great favour.

I think Being For The Benefit Of Mr Kite by The Beatles is in 3/4. If not it definitely has a 3/4 section. There's a few Beatles tunes actually, You've got to hide your love away is 6/8 i think. A lot of Dylan/folk songs have a 3/4 strum to them, i.e. Times They Are A-Changing, and Ed's No More etc

Check out Jeff Buckley's cover of Edith Piaf's Je N'en Connais Pas Le Fin...it's beautiful. if you can, get the version from the live at sin-e album.

Also, check out Against The Axis by this band: http://www.myspace.com/meloncauliflowermusic ;)

songs you can dance to, meaning: My Name is Jonas (Weezer) is not really an option. ;)

1. TENDERLY is a jazz standard in 3 with a some beautiful instrumental versions as well as a fantastic one with Nat King Cole and Oscar Peterson.

I love the lyrics:

The evening breeze caressed the trees tenderly
The trembling trees embraced the breeze tenderly
Then you and I came wandering by
And lost in a sigh were we
The shore was kissed by sea and mist tenderly
I cant forget how two hearts met breathlessly
Your arms opened wide and closed me inside
You took my lips, you took my love so tenderly


2. SOMEWHERE, MY LOVE (Lara's Theme) from Dr. Zhivago.

3. TIME IN A BOTTLE by Jim Croce.

I really like these lyrics, too:

If I could save time in a bottle
The first thing that Id like to do
Is to save every day
Till eternity passes away
Just to spend them with you

If I could make days last forever
If words could make wishes come true
Id save every day like a treasure and then,
Again, I would spend them with you
