This is just a little sidenote to what someone named "siram" said about Jet's song "Are You gonna be my girl". Siram said that the entire song is based around one chord. Siram said it on the first page about Jet.

ALL SONGS (unless the key modulates, which it doesnt do very often, mainly classical music) are based around ONE chord!

Also, the simplicity or complexity of a song shouldnt make it any better or worse, as long as it sounds good then its a good song.
Siram: Jet made a song based around one chord! ;(
Me: What's with the name Siram? More like... CRAP!
