    Well, I play guitar. A good tab is Bombtrack by Rage Against The Machine. Look for it on Ultimate Guitar or something. A great, easy song to learn, it was the first tab I learned. Or maybe Iron Man by Black Sabbath. Or something else.

    Try Tell me Where it hurts by MYMP, it's a simple song, and is pretty easy to learn >.>

    what's your favorite genre and what songs can you play as of now?

    and what's your motivation? to get girls or to impress your friends

    yes these matter when suggesting a song

    What do you define as crazy hard? Depending on your playing ability that can vary quite a bit, if you want a challenge I'm sure I could come up with something from the progressive/technical music world.

    A nice stylistic challenge might be "Textures" by Cynic, it's there instrumental and switches between jazz, light rock and metal. There's no real guitar solo in it (but there is a bass solo ;D), just the lead parts to worry about. And don't get confused with the high chapman stick part in the begininning, http://www.cynicalsphere.com/tablature.html, the official tabs for their music, although not 100% accurate still.

    "The Trooper" and "Aces High" by Iron Maiden are also always fun to learn and can start a firm base for having strong, present melodies in music.

    "La Villa Strangiato" from Rush is always fun, just long for some.

    Or you could choose just to sit back and be amazed by Ron Jarzombek's awesome guitar playing in Spastic Ink's music (try the Guitar Pro file for"Aquanet" on Ultimate-Guitar.com).

    Also, keep in mind these are reccomendations from a bassist.

    Playing AC/DC songs in public might attract 12 year old girls with no real sense of judgment, but to anyone with musical ability or understanding will look down at you for it. You can't really ask random people to suggest a song to play, it really depends on what your ability is and what bands/genres you enjoy.

    lol? chicks dont want to have you play a song that they have never heard.... i know tons of songs...but i asked for suggestions... just because someone says i should learn a song doesnt mean im going to play it... thats why its called a suggestion.
