i think he means lego rock band, i would say its fire on guitar and word up on vocals, not too sure about the others, if you mean overall then i would say visions is the hardest guitar wise and not sure about other instruments

Drums - "Aliens Exist"

I try to stick to Expert drums, but so far I haven't even five-starred this song on Hard, never mind Expert.

It depends. Difficulty is fully objective. If you are referring to what the game defines as hardest, it's different than what, say, I would consider to be the hardest.

I've only played on drums, and I haven't done all the songs yet, but the hardest song I've encountered so far on drums was "Short and Sweet", followed by "Two Princes". "Aliens Exist" probably isn't even in my top 5.

"Two Princes" is not hard, it's just a very awkward pattern.

I'll say "Aliens Exist"...that's just some intense drumming there.

Well, considering my pedal was broken, you're probably correct about it not being hard. Now that I think about it, "Short and Sweet" is probably harder, because the beat is just plain awkward.

I still disagree with "Aliens Exist". The only thing hard about it is the speed, which is easy to overcome by using LRRR sticking for the yellow pad during the verses.

It's not just the speed, it's the cymbal riffs that make you play a lot of patterns the opposite way most people initially learn them. That's what makes the song awkward to me even on hard.

But even then, don't disrespect the speed. I have the endurance for "Short and Sweet" and "Two Princes," but I have yet to survive "Aliens Exist" on expert with my limbs intact.

Extremely late edit: Missed your comment about the LRRR pattern. That is an interesting idea, and I'll definitely have to try it. Of course for me it will be RLLL on the blue cymbal, but still, it just might work!

Yeah, alternating works wonders once you get it down (the first solo in "Green Grass and High Tides" is perfect for practicing it). I went from three stars on "Bad Reputation" to gold stars using it.

Back on topic, the fact that we are having this argument once again shows that you can't really get a single opinion on the hardest song.

Vocals is definitely either Real Wild Child or that Jackson 5 song.

Fire is easy on guitar, don't kid yourself.

Naive is the hardest there.

No, Kung Foo Fighting is the hardest on Guitar!

But Fire is easy.

You spelled Kung Fu wrong.

And I gotta agree with GNFfhqwhgads, Kung Fu Fighting might be hard, but Naive is way harder.

Fire is hardest on drums, no doubt.

on bass, the hardest 100% is Tick Tick Boom because of one stupid strumming section

hardest overall song, or song to pass is definately Two Princes.

Visions is the only song that keeps me from doing the endless setlist on guitar or bass, so I'm going to go with that. I blame the horrendous plastic RB1 drum sounds the song has, lol.

Wait... how long have we been able to export Rock Band 2 songs to Lego?

Wrong place you have there I'm afraid.

Band: Satch Boogie
Bass: Panic Attack
Drums: What a Horrible Night to Have a Curse (Panic Attack is harder than Painkiller)
Vocals: (i dunno)
Guitar: Satch Boogie

And speaking of failing...

This is the Lego forum, ya know, and the OP was asking about songs within that game.

"Real Wild Child" is so easy it's not even funny. It's mostly straight-forward 4/4 beats, and the drum solos are extremely easy after the initial "OMG LOTS OF NOTES" shock.

What? No its, not? Short and Sweet is easy, I have more trouble with the Ballroom Blitz outro then the whole of Short and Sweet

Aliens Exist is the hardest to pass, but if you're good, then its not a difficult FC

The hardest FC hand's down is Fire
