4 chords on an acoustic and a nice singing voice. If that's history then my local pub should be protected by UNESCO. Hear that same shit every weekend. Edit: Spelling

[@zheeniie2945]

@@arya6085 The song recieved a lot of Platinum certifications in different countries from the song with the same chords that this guy uses for "all his songs" that is still relevant to this day lmao.

[@arya6085]

@@zheeniie2945 I can give myself a "platinum certificate" if I want. The fact that he has fans internationally doesn't make his music history. I don't deny that he's a good musician with a large fan base but calling his music history is just wrong and arrogant for fans to say. I love muse but their music isn't history or legendary either.

I simply remembered that there was a song on that list, titled 'Photograph' and added to the fact, he had previously spoken about Photograph, being the first song written for the album, the association of the track list and the song I was now hearing was simple.
