Topic: why is it?

why is it  when my friends ask me to learn a new song for our annual get together it never fails to requires the vocal range of Roy Orbison and the chords are a bowl of alphabet soup?
i am three chords and a cloud of dust with a mono tone  vocal range , they best really be hammered when they ask me to play it . just saying 

out of tune out of key and out of touch

Re: why is it?

Right?

"Oh, you know what song I'd really love to hear you play? The Al DiMeola Full Catalog Medley Featuring Placido Domingo and Al Jureau." 

"Uh, OK. Sure. That'd be great. What you'll get is Johnny Cash's Blue Train without the Carl Perkins solo."

Granted B chord amnesty by King of the Mutants (Long live the king).
