A friend of mine is working on a piece of performance art and wants to

show she played a little accordian and sang but I reckon she can do
better.
It occurs to me that there are a fair number of well known tunes that
can be played on open strings and 1 or 2 fretted notes only - the first
one we tried is 'rock n roll' by Led Zepellin - just pedalling the A
string, D string, A again and G on the E string - the original version
isn't quite that simple but it is close enough to be convincing.
Other obvious ones are 'Relax' by Frankie Goes to Hollywood and 'Fight
for the Right to Party' by the beastie boys.
Their must be loads more - any suggestions?
