The Four Chords Song

This is pretty cool. I know most music uses the same few chords, but there's obviously a lot of work gone into this. Check it out.

Ok, so its been 2 months since I've done anything on this. Ironically, not having a job and therefore having more time, I've not been bothered about posting. I wonder if that'll change around once(if) I do get a job. I'm quite surprised how difficult it has been to get a job. Firstly, I have 3 A level passes (CDD-not great, but passes), which is more than most people in the country, I am generally a reasonable person-polite, patient, hopefully likable and I have good references and yet B&Q have turned me down! B&Q! I've got nothing against the people at B&Q and I'm sure that this doesn't apply to everyone, but it's not the hardest job and some of the people at my local branch aren't the brightest sparks. They were advertising for jobs too, it's not like I wrote to them to see if they've got any spare.
At least they replied-I reckon about 30-40% of the places I've applied to haven't replied. I appreciate they have a lot of applications etc but if I've made the effort to apply to them for a job, filled in application forms/quetionaires/personallity tests, can they not at least say "sorry, we've filled the position." I don't know if they're just going through a lot of applications and taking their time or if they're not gonna reply at all. In the unlikely event I do get an offer, I might be between two minds about accepting it if I'm waiting on another that I might prefer but they've not replied to me.
I'll let you know if I do get a job (not that anyone reads this that doesn't know me...come to think of it, not that anyone reads it at all) and by the way, thats not me and I don't have kids to support I just want to buy some Christmas presents.
