    Your favourite guitar riffs....in words!

    Right, the aim of this thread is to put your favourite guitar riffs into verbal form. It's like when you're trying to describe a song to someone and you use a series of 'doos' and 'daas' - except you have to use whatever sounds you can to get across how the guitar goes as accurately as you can, without using any of the lyrics.

    For example, Sweet Child O' Mine, by Guns N' Roses:

    doo da-dow da da-dow da-dow, doo da-dow da da-dow da-dow


    Or Knights of Cydonia, by Muse (the big one, not the beginning bit):

    ba da-dow da-dommm, ba da-dow da-dommm, ba da-dow da-dommm, ba da-dow-da-da-dow dee da-dow-da-dommm, da da-dow da-dommm.... etc

    It's more fun than it looks.

    Franz Ferdinand - The Dark of The Matinee
    Sreesanth said, "Next ball he was beaten and I said, 'is this the King Charles Lara? Who is this impostor, moving around nervously? I should have kept my mouth shut for the next ball - mind you, it was a length ball - Lara just pulled it over the church beyond the boundary! He is a true legend."

    The color of immortality, nature and envy - you are truly a unique person. While clearly the color of nature, you also symbolize rebirth, fertility and hope in the world. On the other side of the spectrum, a natural aptitude to money with green coming to signify money and possibly even *********!
