I was going to post that, because its the way I learned the chord, and for me the easiest way

Wow, and I thought I was the only 'newbie' who hates the E Chord! YIPEE, I'm not alone...Ok, I hate B flat, too! LOL!
I am always frustrated with Em to B transitions… it seems like it should be an easy shift, but I mess it up more often that not.
Try playing Em7 (0202) instead of Em - most of the time it sounds fine, and it's easier to play when making quick moves.
::making a note:: I need to see if this will work in a song I'm trying to work out.
I've only been playing a little over 2 weeks, and it's still hard to plunk down all three fingers at once for the Em.

Yeah, I just listened to Angel, and it does sound better with a regular E minor.
News flash: I just realized there is a two-finger version of E minor: 0402
I don't know why it took me so long to discover that - for some reason that option is not shown in my Hal Leonard chord book.
How about a double-neck uke with the upper neck tuned to an open E chord? Play the rest of your stuff on the lower neck, then strum the upper whenever you need an E....
