As always, an amazing learning experience! My addition would be “House of the Rising Sun”. My band played this as our closing number at the Aurora Bar and Lounge (and hotel). Oddly enough, our power suddenly went out after the second verse. Sadly, the audience missed the great Hammond B3 organ solo.

Yes, this used to be everybody's first song. It's still pretty cool.

A man of culture I see. I would replace more than a feeling with Hitch a ride but other then that amazing list :)

[@McLovin201]

Children of the Damned is super underrated. One of my absolute favorite dynamic shifts to that tom roll bridge thing Clive does.

the last three are great crowd pleasers, parents love those

Put Your Lights On by Everlast and Santana was the first song I learned. Easy chord progressions and you alter the Am, C, and G by adding or taking away a string and it sounds awesome.

Over the hills and far away some people don't know the song but everyone I play it for love it
