I've only been playing for a year and a half so don't laugh guys. Red House by Jimi Hendrix.

Ummmmm.......I don't know. Mine would probably have to be Smile in your Sleep by Silverstein. Requires alot of coordination.

One I wrote with a fast riff in it.

It's hard for me to play it--but I'm sure some people would have a very easy time with it.

I'd have to say "Crazy on You" by Heart, due to its extremely quick finger-picked intro. Otherwise the chord progression doesn't sound too terrible except for the itty-bitty mini solos in between verses.

(I'mma get flamed for this...) Otherwise I'd say "The Light That Blinds" by Shadows Fall, due to its fingerpicked intro and extremely fast tempo and progression. It just gets a tad hard to keep up eh?

(EDIT: I can't play either of those (though I've attempted The Light That Blinds, but just the thought of it is just blood curdling...)

Probably Neon, John Mayer. Was difficult for me to start using fingers!

Not been playing very long, and recently I've been working more on my acoustic rhythm, so my hardest song isn't very hard. Slow Blues by Hendrix. It was the first 'long solo' I learnt.

Probably something by Buckethead. I'm not usually into more metal sounding stuff, be he puts so great emotion into both his slow and fast songs.
