"Cicatriz ESP" by The Mars Volta. You'd have to get two other guys to play guitar with you, though.

Favorite song? That's a toughy, but when I read the thread title the song, "Never Been Any Reason" by Head East jumped into my head.

It might not be my favorite but it's in my top 10.

[SOLO]

The entire solo (or almost) is played in artificial harmonics, so, if are not getting
a good sound from your guittar, you can try my second version of this solo, that sound
almost like the original, but without artificial harmonics.


(These Harmonics are not
exactly on the 19th fret. ___________________________________
Tap diagonally with the |
right index finger between |
the 19th and the 20th.Same |
thing to the other harmonics |
indicated with "X/Y" ) |

This song is hard to play, at least at the beginning.

Over The Hills And Far Away
(Page/Plant)

Hey lady--you got the love I need
Maybe more than enough.
Oh Darling... walk a while with me
You've got so much...

Many have I loved - Many times been bitten
Many times I've gazed along the open road.

Many times I've lied - Many times I've listened
Many times I've wondered how much there is to know.

Many dreams come true and some have silver linings
I live for my dream and a pocketful of gold.

Mellow is the man who knows what he's been missing
Many many men can't see the open road.

Many is a word that only leaves you guessing
Guessing 'bout a thing you really ought to know, ooh!
You really ought to know...
