RE: Wie spiel ich das? Was ist die Originalversion?
Man man man. Ich wollte den Song \"Wasn`t that a party\" von den Irish rovers spielen. Aber irgendwie gibt es nur diese Version mit der ich ueberhaupt nicht klar komme. Hab mir dann in nem Irishen Folk forum Hilfe geholt. Aber bei allem was mir der gute man mitgeteil hat, hab ich nur verstanden, dass die Version so geschrieben ist, dass man sie leicht in ner anderen Tonlage spielen kann.
Aber so wirklich hilft mir das nicht weiter. Könntet ihr mir vielleicht sagen was die richtige Natation für diesen Song is? Würde mich freuen am besten die originalversion.

und hier der Antwortthread:
To explain the numbering system: Ive never seen this form of notation before but it makes sense, as long as you can figure out what key you want to sing it in.
Chords can be treated as notes of a scale, some are going to be major, some minor, and some are sevenths.
So the chart showing that C is 1, D is 2 etc. is just an EXAMPLE. The #1 chord/note aka the TONIC, is the name of the key you are playing in--obviously key of C in this example. But you can just as easily use G as 1, A as 2, etc, if you find that G is a better key for you to sing the song in.
The notation \"57\" means \"fifth chord, played as a seventh\"--so if you are playing in G, its a D7. If you are in C, its a G7.
The asterisks are like bar lines--they show how many bars to hold each chord for. Just keep on playing the designated chord until it changes. Looks like Wasn that a Party is in 2/4 time, so you count two more beats for each asterisk.
I know, when you say \"aren there any real versions\", you would just like to see letter-named chords written out. But after youve sat through a few practices (specially band practices) where people keep saying, \"I think you should try that in a different key\", you will have scribbled so many chord names on the paper that you can make any sense of it at all. So this system is worthwhile learning because it teaches an important priniciple of music. Many beginning musicians get fixated that whatever key a song is written in is the \"right\" key, and those are the only \"right\" chords. Tain so. The \"right\" key is the one that works best for the vocalist, and is achievable by the instrumentalists that are present. So a system like this, that shows the chords in a generic form, makes sense, you just need to get the hang of what the important chords are in any key.
In most folk music they are 1, 4, and 5, plus sometimes 2 (either minor or seventh) and 6 (minor).

Whoops, just noticed the transcription describes the time sig as 2/2 not 2/4. Seems weird but OK. (2/2 means 2 beats to the bar, a 1/2 note equals one beat instead of the usual quarter-note to a beat. Fortunately everyone knows how the song goes already, this time sig seems odd cause it would slow down the tempo...a lot)
