The title says it all; what songs are they, and why do/don't you like playing them? I'll start with I hate playing Spoonman in RB:U but love playing it in RB2. The only part I can play well in RB:U is the vocals...which is the total opposite in RB2.
Off the top of my head I can't think of any songs in RB:U I play better then in RB2 but I'm sure there are some in there.

More = Everlong, I am not a Foo Fighters fan...
Less = Alive, It is to long I swear.

I agree with Alive for being less fun on unplugged.
Havent played all the songs yet, so cant really say what is more fun

I also like playing Everlong on RB:U more so..because i can actually pass that song on expert drums...RB2, not so much.
Under the Bridge seems a lot harder to me in RB:U. Anybody else notice that too?

Thought that ABC would be fairly underwhelming. Turned out to be one of my favorite songs! Works perfectly in the Unplugged system, strongly considering buying it once it reaches regular Rock Band.

I can't wait to play the drums on pretty much all the Unplugged songs when they become RB2 DLC. What's My Age Again? on drums is going to be a big challenge for me I think.
EDIT: Buddy Holly on Unplugged is TONS more fun for me then it is on RB2

You've played Kryptonite in RB2?

The songs I like less on RB:U are the ones by vocalists who can't sing, such as Billy Corgan and Kurt Cobain. On RB2, I can turn their vocals all the way down when I'm singing. On RB:U, I have to listen to them. Other than that, I'm quite pleased with the game.

More: Everlong, Pinball Wizard, and Float On
Less: Drain You, Livin' On A Prayer, and Alive
Also, even though I know it's not in RB 2 yet, I feel it's worth mentioning that I find Less Talk More Rokk to be stupidly fun in Unplugged.

Agreed. I don't get very far in expert, but that's what hard is for.

While it's very easy in RB2, I'm currently stuck on Come Out And Play on expert. Seriously, this song should not be so damn hard!!!:mad:

I love playing Gasoline and cannot wait for that to be DLC (along with everything else exclusive to this game).
For songs we already have, I love playing Holiday in Cambodia a lot more for some reason.

Painkiller in the game has MUCH less foot rapage than when I play it on expert drums.

Come Out and Play is a pain in the ass in Unplugged.

White Wedding (Part 1) bass is a lot more fun on Unplugged then on RB2

I really don't like playing Ace of Spades in Unplugged, while it is one of my favorite songs in RB2.
Contrastingly, I love playing The Trees in Unplugged, while I HATE playing it in RB2.

I hate The Trees in both versions of the game...not because its bad to play or anything; I just don't like that Rush song. With so many other choices, I'd have taken any of the other ones we've gotten as DLC.

After having gotten used to the game,I found I enjoy playing Livin on a prayer,Carry on Wayward son,Move along,and The Middle the most. I especially like hitting the overdrive button right as you hit the chorus on Livin on a prayer.
I really do not have a least favorite song yet.

Painkiller is less fun, in my opinion, as the left-thumb lead Bass and Guitar during the choruses is so frustrating to hit.

Since I primarily play guitar in RB, the ones I like more fall into two camps. First, the ones that are physically painful are have alt-strumming sections that no matter how many billions of times I play them, I never seem to get down. Chop Suey and Pinball Wizard always cause me to groan when they show up in an endless setlist, but I think they work TERRIFICALLY in Unplugged and are two of my favorites.
The second group is songs that are rather easy and/or monotonous on the console version. Stuff like The Middle, My Own Worst Enemy, and Just a Girl become much more fun when you're jumping between parts and throwing in some fun drum beats.
The ones I like much less are usually ones with an awesome guitar solo, particularly Alive and Aqualung. Alive in particular suffers from the whole last half of the song being deemed a guitar solo. The game is at its best when it is emphasizing rhythm, and having you jump between parts and feeling like you're controlling the whole band. Alive fails in BOTH of these areas, as you're just doodling randomly on a solo, especially frustrating because I hear the drummer jamming and I want to play that part just as much. And let's face it, nailing a solo in Unplugged doesn't feel NEARLY as cool as nailing a solo with a plastic guitar.
As for the hate for The Trees... that song is equally awesome on all versions.
