That's kind of a hard question, I'd say they all have a relative level of difficulty but can each be tackled with time. Not that I play all these songs perfectly, but some parts that especially give me trouble are: Intro/Opening of Hopeful Heresy (timing kills me, just can't nail it), one transition segment in Rheginos and the Resurrection bugs me still, and sometimes I just can't remember a verse or bridge for random songs. But the tabs are relatively easy to get down if you take the time, but it's learning to incorporate your own improv into the songs and your own tastes that makes the songs tricky. Probably the hardest part for learning those songs on the tab page (for me) was switching from only picking to learning to fingerstyle. But now, I do both instead of one, and I actually prefer the dynamic approach of the fingerstyle. And don't worry about learning a song because its difficulty, sometimes I've found its fun to learn a song because you actually like it, not because its full of the licks and rapid notes.

Songs that aren't tabbed out that I think would be the hardest: "Reliable Sources". That song is freakin' insane.

Thanks for the feedback.. I definitely agree, fingerstyle is more dynamic. Hopeful hershy was the first one i learned. I enjoy playing 'smile' a lot to. The song "offspring" looks difficult.

Offspring's fingering can be very tough. But there are parts in it that are so fun to play.

The 5-fret stretches in "Is anybody here" have always seemed to give me trouble, but they sound great if you pull them off fluently. The intro part isn't so bad actually, but theres a mid section with some toughies. I don't know if I looked at the tabs on the site or figured it out myself -- probably a little of both.

The intro to Try a little Harder used to give me trouble, but I've long since mastered it -- its a great little jazzy progression.
