Any easy songs to learn for classical guitar?

I’ve been trying to learn classical guitar for about a week now and whilst I can do the intros to Fade to Black, One and nothing else matters I’ve yet to find a song I can fully complete ’till the end.

Are there any songs you guys can recommend that are easy so that I can learn an entire song rather than just the intros?

Well that’s hardly classical music, but that is the sort of thing that first got me interested in playing classical.

Get this book:
http://www.amazon.com/Library-Guitar-Classics-Appleby-Classical/dp/0825616174/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1292628836&sr=8-1

There’s tons of great stuff in there, and it’s got standard notation and tab. I encourage you to try to read the notation first, only using the tablature to help you through the tough spots. If you’re serious about learning classical guitar, you’re not going to see any tablature (and if you ever ask for it, be prepared to be ridiculed).

That book can usually be found at most large bookstores, like Barnes & Noble or Borders.

    Hey.. James here..

    It wasn’t until probably the last six months or so that I’ve been able to play the guitar. I’ve always been very interested since a young age considering my dad and his brothers pretty much grew up on the guitar and drums. It’s always been in the family and when I would watch them play they always made it look so easy.. it seemed like almost a natural thing for them. I tried for years to learn how to play… tried to have my father help me, looked to books to teach me, spent hours on youtube watching people try to explain.. etc. Nothing ever really worked. I eventually gave up for a few years then just within the past year or so I became interested in it again when I would see all these girls just going crazy over musicians at shows/concerts… lol. So I started looking online and came across this website which is an online program with videos and the works that teaches everything you need to know to learn how to play.

    It’s probably the best tutorial/instructional course I’ve ever seen… I learned how to play the guitar very quickly and now it seems like I can almost play songs by ear.. something my uncle can do. I’m actually planning on tryin to start up a band with a few friends of mine after I get myself a newer more expensive better quality guitar. But I definitely would have never learned it if it wasn’t for that course.

    I hope I was of some help to you my friend, and I wish you the best of luck! Rock on.
