Guitar is the only instrument that I can play so, yeah I can play a few of her songs on the acoustic. I'm still in the process of figuring out all the chords for About Me. Then I'd like to try Letters as well. The only Hikki song I can play on the electric is Hikari. Fail.

I can play Utada's "passion" on the piano. Anyone familiar with the kyle landry arrangement? That guy is amazing. That arrangement is supposedly the hardest version. I'm thinkin of posting a video of me soon!

The only instruments I can play are the Comb ?n? Paper, I can play every Hikki classic from First Love to TiTo....Josh I totally agree ?Passion? the Kyle Landry arrangement is a challenge on the Comb ?n? Paper too, the tendency to dribble the ?intro? is messy to say the least......

I wonder if ramenbox would be up for a duet, a combo, whoa ... Dirty Desire (ramenpip remix) ,feat C?n?P.....

by the way the World Championships below for the doubters who disbelieve that a Comb?n?Paper are not legitimate musical instruments......

i can play the guitar. im not trying to sound air-headed or anything but i can play almost all her songs on guitar. it takes me about two runs on her songs and thats it, i can play with it until the song ends. hikari is easy to play since it is purely strumming and there are no guitar fills whatsoever. the trick is to make your strumming sound both like a guitar and a maraccas(percussive effect)at the same time. it takes a lot of practice to perfect that technique as it involves both wrist action and pick handling.

some songs might take a couple more listening to to finally figure out like songs with instrumentals and all.

the opening acoustic guitar riff in 'never let go' is one of my favorites as well the opening bars of 'give me a reason'.

another that gets me excited is the guitar riffs of 'kettobase'. those pinch harmonics are the bomb!

@Pips_Paradise : Could you provide another link of Comb 'n' Paper? The video isn't working for me. I'd like to know more about it. Excuse my stupidity but this is the first time I come across this instrument. Seems interesting!

@percypenn : Do you mind sharing some of the chords/tabs for her songs? I can't seem to get them right because I'm not really good at playing by ear.

Hikari is easy to play but I saw an extremely difficult version (improvised of course) on youtube. That guy plays kinda fast. Will share the video next time, I lost the link since I didn't favorite it.
