First of all I want be sad and mention two of my favourite chords. The first is E7b9 (well not E in particular, it could be C or anything...). It comes in Cole Porter's "So in Love" (strange dear, but true dear) and it is very haunting! I also noticed it in Uptown Girl as a 'substitution' for G7, and in lots of 'jazzy' harmonies.

The next is usually written as F/G ie. F with a G bass, but it is really G11 (ie. G7,9,11) and it sounds great especially if you play it as GFG (left hand) CDFAC (right hand).

Next - French. I love those cheeky French words which are 'argot' but not rude - see if you know what these are: (not sure of the spelling)
