At the moment I'm learning a whole heap of Tool songs... but on piano. By ear. I am frustrating myself with it.

I'm trying to learn Des'ree's "You Gotta Be" on guitar.

Working?

Not so much.

I'm currently trying to get a few Lilys songs down on the guitar, but damn Kurt has to always throw in weird **** and it's really frustrating trying figure out what excatly he's doing. So Far I've got "Pookah" and "Gravity Free Atmosphere of MSA" down.

I've also been trying my hand at a David Grubbs song "A Dream to Help Me Sleep" and damn am I having problems getting down the timings.

currently learning is N/A

favourite to play - hendrix's voodoo chile (slight return). sure it's a cliche answer but whatever. it was fun as hell to play back in the day when i played covers.

My favorite bassline i'm jamming on the last couple days an He Is Legend's - Dinner With A Gypsy, just a badass bassline and its been stuck in my head. I gotta play it over and over again to get it out.

It might sound lame but I'm just about finished learning "Girl from Ipanema" by Gilberto/Getz, from the album "Jazz 'Round Midnight." Now I just need a female lead that can come anywhere close to Astrud Gilberto...

That, and Bright Eyes "Arc of Time."

that's not lame, that's AWESOME

stan getz's 'Jazz Samba Encore!' is one of my top jazz albums ever.

I don't really learn that many songs, more just riffs, but I will share anyways.
On guitar i like to play "Number Of The Beast" by Iron Maiden.
On the keyboard i like to play Jump by Van Halen

I am currently learning:
On electric guitar i'm learning the solo of Final Countdown by Europe.

Learning to play acoustic guitar. I am not learning songs at the moment, but I am learning to play in the style of Miyavi and also some fingerpicking.

I also want to learn something by Andy McKee eventually.

Also I'm learning to play the harmonica, but I don't know what songs to learn on that. I would appreciate any suggestions. (In the tuning of C)
