As a teacher, whenever a student didn't remember to bring their music with them to their lessons, and DIDN'T memorize their previous lesson, I always taught them "MMMMM Bop!" The problem was, whenever I'd demonstrate, I'd laugh so hard at myself, I couldn't play the thing for very long.

And that feeling of utter silliness was harder to overcome than any technical masterpiece I can think of.

Well eric johnsons cliffs of dover is hard. But i am slowly learning it. Most of Yngwie Malmsteens stuff is also very very hard.

Classical stuff in general, also a lot of traditional music like celtic stuff is hard! I find the phrasing the hardest part because it kinda goes against the rock stuff (at least for me).

A tie between Yngwie Malmsteen's "Trilogy Suite Op:5" and the arpegio solo from Malmsteen's "The Seventh Sign" (That is damn near impossible).
