Songs I play with my guitar

(Today is all about lists, apparently.)

Songs I’m working on right now:

Thirty and Seven, August Burns Red
Existence, August Burns Red
For Those Who Fight Further, The Black Mages

Songs I’ve been able to play reasonably well at some time or another:

American Love, Haste the Day, 2010
Come Clarity, In Flames, 2012
Promised Ones*, blessthefall, 2012

*The solo is still too fast for me, but knowing the rhythm part counts too. And I know both parts, and that has to count for something.

Songs for which I know every note, that require greater skill or more practice:

Vital Signs, August Burns Red,
Thirty and Seven, August Burns Red

Songs for which I know greater than 75% of the notes, and I just need to sit my ass down for half an hour and learn the rest:

Existence, August Burns Red
Carrion, Parkway Drive
Romance Is Dead, Parkway Drive
Through Struggle, As I Lay Dying
The Place I’ll Return to Someday, Nobuo Uematsu
Marianas Trench, August Burns Red
Ocean of Apathy, August Burns Red

---

My idealistic wishlist. If time was not a concern, these are the songs I’d want to learn in no particular order.
