Which composer do YOU think has the easiest song that you've played already. You can agree with each other for example: I think Bach's xxxxxx song is easy next person I think so to so you get the rules now OKohhh yeah one little thing the xxxxxx means any particular song that you may choose if you have any Questions about that are confusing you let me know. :)

I think Mozart's Twinkle Twinkle little star is really easy. :P

i vote to disagree, i studied this piece for a long time and it seems the more time i spent with it more i discovered both it's beauty and it's difficulty.  i think i have an old recording of it from years ago, i'll try and put them in the audition room, i'd forgotten all about it.

The variations?  It's a French folk song isn't it?

I voted Beethoven, thinking of Ode to Joy.  Simple, but also in almost every beginning book. 

Bach might slip something into the line that would make it more complicated. 

What about Merrily We Roll Along?  Like Mary had a Little Lamb but simple, just three notes. 

Any of those piece... Though you say "song" in the title... But any of those pieces that are actually a phrase just after students learn how to play three notes.

Actually I changed my mind I'm gonna change that and make my choice Fur Elise because that is easy and I play it alot. ;D I also like it better too. ;)

Bach definitely has easier Notebook stuff than Beethoven's Fur Elise.

Fur Elise is also not the easiest of Beethoven's pieces.

The first piano piece I learned by myself I have to say was the easiest....Moonlight Sonata. Took me a week.
