PLEASE!! If u guys know any good songs that u think arent 2 complicated 4 us (hehe...we've only been playing for 3 yrs)

thanks heaps!!!
Ok wow; just wow. If I may, I'd like to offer a few points of constructive criticism. First off, if you'll direct your attention to either side of your keyboard you'll find keys labeled 'Shift'. Google can help provide instruction as to their use. Second, numbers != words; and third Caps Lock is not actually cruise control for cool. Finally, text-message-speak actually makes me twitch so a small effort may some day save a life.
That said, I'd have a look at a few Cradle of Filth songs. They heavily use keys and a few are decidedly piano. 'Her Ghost In The Fog' from the Midian album, 'Swansong For a Raven' from the Nymphetamine album, and 'Suicide and Other Comforts' from the Bitter Suites to Succubi album. Don't let the names fool you. While there is an effort at shock value there, the lyrical content is actually quite Shakespearean. Swansong includes some rather fast piano work but the guitars aren't that bad.
It sounds like you've got some time before you need to be ready. I'd consider something like Vivaldi's Summer Theme. It's not unheard of to play it on guitar, and it would undoubtedly sound nice with piano or even with a full band. The guitar work may be a bit complex but at the very least every guitarist should witness it performed. It can be checked out here:

One Cold Winters Night by Kamelot lots of nice interplay between piano and guitar

dont know if its what your looking for but it is one of the most gorgeous songs by a metal band ever
Hospital Beds - Cold War kids
Teardrop - Massive Attack
That's all at the moment. ![]()

cold play and cradle of filth and go for something

piano and guitar working together
