hardest song of all time?

Unread post by ryopan » Tue Apr 15, 2003 10:47 pm

i pretty much only play dave stuff so i am not real sure about the hardest song of all time but someone asked me this the other day and i was stumped. such a hard question. from my guitar experience, the question becomes: which songs seems like its the hardest song ever? im taking a break from a report so i just thought id ask.

Man. What a thread. Seriously, there are so many songs out there that haven't reached the mainstream.
Also depends on the style you are looking at. Damn, I need more time to think about this one :?

my guess for hardest song of all time would either be battery by metallica or something by the piece of crap yngwie malmsteen.
