Falls on me (Fuel)
My Sacrifice (Creed)

7 Nation Army (The White Stripes)
Smoke Over the water (Deep Purple)
Are you gonna be my girl (Jet)(darn nice song fr bass... bassist! a chance fr yall to stand in the middle of the stage! hahaha)
God is a girl (Groove Coverage) (no tabs or chords online, so use ur creativity fr the basslines on this 1! verynice song to play on bass with treble full, bass cut half, mid half oso)

MUST KNOW!:
A place for ma head (Linkin Park)
In the shadows (Rasmus) (a lil song fr bassists to shine... a lil, haha)

Note for bassists: Playing rootnotes for all the songs above would just make them all become beginner songs, so plz, use ur creativity to add some extra lines to the chords.

ahahaha.... i'm sure these 4 songs have been mentioned before, but i'll say it again anyway....

1. smells like teen spirit
2. smoke on the water
3. wild thing
4. stairway to heaven
5. enter sandman

level 1 - the beginners , grab the pop song chord book on the store
Mimpi yang sempurna - peterpan (the easiest one)
the temple of the King - rainbow (another easy stuff)
kiss me - sixpence of the none ritcher <-- is this the right name ^^ ( very easy)
GOD - vertical horizon (easy easy and very sweet song, just skip the interlude if u want)
level 2
To be with you - Mr-big ( time to learn some solo and more chord)
here without you - 3 doors down ( not my fave, but quite moderate to learn string picking , be patience )
knockin on the heavens door - gnr
level 3 - time to learn some classy fingering, doesnt have to be fully mastered but need to know
more than word - a must!! (just skip the hellfinger on the last min on the track)
Kangen - dewa19 (learn every single note, skip the solo <-- you can do it if you want, btw I ll write the tab if needed )
I remember you - skid row ( learn the picking carefully )
stairway to heaven - led zepplin ( some classy but rocky )
nothing else matters - Metallica ( another stairway to heaven levels)

LEVEL 3 - power chord - electric guitar chord fells the different!
Smell like teen spirits - nirvana (learn what electric guitar can do for beginners)
Sahabat Sejati - Sheila On 7 (need to know for electric guitarist, a good sample of overdrive the sound)
enter sandman - metallica ( yess soo rocky!!! )
SMoke in the water - deep purple ( so basic for electric guitar playing)
Seberapa Pantas - SO7 (again?? yes but this is harder than sahabat sejati)

LEVEL 4 - the solo's - you need to learn some basic of scale and fingering warmup to do solo properly, my sugestion is learn blues , major and minor pentatonic scale , and dont forget do re mi

a man who sold the world - nirvana (solo along da song easy one )
Smoke in the water (with solo ) - deep purple ( if you skip the solo at level 3 , you must learn the solo here )
Sweet Child O mine - GNR ( sweet shortcut to learn solo )
black magic women - Santana ( black magic to master solo magic )
Highway to hell - ACDC (its a highway ticket to master solo)
Seberapa Pantas - SO7 ( ehhh Sheila againn?? yess but this is good example for you to learn overdrive solo without delay and other effect, I mean very2 dry sound so your mistakes will be noticed easily)

end of the levels ..... if you fells the song is not suitable for you just play another song that has same level as THAT song

Party songs ..... oh well Im not a party guy ...
but here's the suitable song for audience taste

Right Now ! - SR71 <---- great for intro and opening, Im pretty sure this song ll raise up audience adrenaline at once
Every Breath You Take - The Police <-- just Modify the song, get some rappers, change the calm song with the distorsion song when it goes to the reff ...
We will rock you - Queen
Manja - Ada band <-- sweet song that ll atract girls
Duality - SliptKnot - --> in case your audience is brutal ppl ^^
Die mothef***er die - Dope --> same as above
etc

my suggestion is try to grab some popular whether new song or old song, and modify it to suit the style of your band


ADD on : MUST LEARN SONG ( Id call it must know song first before you learn it, because its damn good fully skilled song )

Siti Nurbaya - Dewa (, easiest of the hard one beware bassist !! the guitar solo is nothing compare yours )
Fear of The Dark - iron maiden ( only for iron maiden fans)
Like an Angel - Yngwie Malmsteen ( powerfull and emotional solo, must learn if you want to master of slow rock solo )
Monkey Business - Skid Row ( the loudest song of skidrow, beware Drummers, guitarist ,vocalist and the bassist !!, get the tempo, get the riffs)
No Junjou Na Kanjou - Siam Shade ( japanese rock, that made you play the lead a long the song)
Livin the Live - Steel Dragon feat zakk ( a hard rock from the soundtrack of rockstar, prepare your speed!!, another fast loud song , very2 fast solo)

your final boss level is :
steve vai, van halen, joe satriani, eric johnson ( try to learn some of their song, I haven't master even single of it .... T_T )

your final final final boss is :
JAZZ!! yeah, jazz root all of the modern music, its contains the easy tune into the hardest tune that you ve never seen before, learn it
some example is :
Casiopea

AC/DC - T.N.T.
The Darkness - I Believe In A Thing Called Love

Easy beginner songs (guitar)

Espionage - Green Day (instrumental)
The 12 bar blues - no idea
Basket Case - Green Day
Wonderwall - Oasis

Since everyone has been asking where the pianists are, I'll do my best to fill in Classical piano... To me it's very hard to 'rate' or 'categorize' pieces, but I'll try. I hope I'm not leaving out too much of the beginner side..

And a piece is not about how hard the notes are - it is about how you play it - the end product. Even "beginner" so called pieces must be played musically, there's no point in taking on something you won't be able to play properly if you're not mature enough musically.

Mid-Beginner (perhaps up until Grade 3 level?):
Handel - Fantasie in A minor
Chopin - Prelude in E minor
Chopin - Prelude in B minor
Schumann - From Foreign Lands (from the set of pieces Kinderscenen)
Set of pieces : Burgmuller - 25 Easy and Progressive Studies for the piano Op.100

Intermediate (maybe up to Grade 7/8) : (I don't think I can call them party songs? But pieces you can pull out when someone asks you to play something)
Bach Invensions
Scarlatti - Piano Sonatas (i'm not exactly sure which ones would be good)
Brahms - Three Intermezzi Op. 117
Mozart - Piano Sonata in C K545
Beethoven - Piano Sonata in F minor Op2 Nr 1
Beethoven - Rondo, C major Op. 51/1
Chopin - Deux Nocturnes Op. 55 Nr 1

Advanced (Gr 7/8 up) :
Bach - Partita No. 1 (and others)
Schubert - Four Impromptus Op. 90
Beethoven Piano Sonatas - C minor Op 10 Nr 2, C minor (pathetique) Op 13, E major Op 14 Nr 1, C sharp minor (moonlight) Op 27 Nr 1
Mozart Piano Sonatas (I'm missing quite a few, don't have my book with me) - A minor Piano Sonata
Debussy - Clair De Lune, Prelude IX, Prelude X (both Book one)
Samuel Barber - Excursions Op 20
Shostakovich - Piano Concerto No 2 in F, Three Fantastic Dances
Schumann - Fantasiestucke Op. 12
Sinding - Rustle of Spring
Chopin - Waltz in E flat major, Waltz in C sharp minor, some others
Kabalevsky - Piano Sonata No. 3 in F

Very Advanced (Dunno?) :
Debussy - Pour le piano
Chopin - Scherzos (any of them, I've done No.2 and 3), Fantasie-Impromptu, Etudes, Ballade Op.52
Lizst - Liebestraum (sp?), Storm, Piano Sonata in B minor
Brahms - Rhapsody (the D minor one)
Grieg - Piano Concerto in A minor
Mussorgsky - Pictures at an Exhibition

and hundreds of hundreds more...

Beethoven - Piano Sonata in F minor (appassionata) Op57

Beginner- Hoobastank The Reason

Party- Lostprophets Burn Burn

Advanced- Slipknot The Blister Exists

Crazy maniac- Slipknot Left Behind, (sic)

Piano ( must learn)

Radiohead - Wish You Were Here (song owned by Pink Floyd)
