Sabotage will be the hardest song to sing. I mean it's fast paced rapping, can't get much harder than that. Hitting high octaves won't be as hard as being able to keep up with the pace of singing (this is based from experience with Karaokee Revolution).

Plus, the Beastie Boys have high pitched voices anyway.

"Scatman" or "The End of the World as we Know it" ;)

It would be like the Jordan of vocals.

That should be in the game for sure, it also has some cool guitar licks.

It wouldn't be much challenge for those of us who played the every-loving crap out of Karaoke Revolution. I still have all the lyrics memorized, and I actually sang them and never mumbled the tone.

That doesn't make him a great singer nor make a sublime song hard to sing. That just makes him popular. Base your posts off of what you actually hear in the songs next time, not what a list says. I remember either a rolling stone or vh1 list(i cant remember which) had smells like teen spirit somewhere in the top 25 of the 200 greatest guitar solos of all time.

No. Remember, you can sing in whatever octave you want. Just because the master recording is done in a high pitch doesn't make it a difficult song in this game.

Complex scales and fast, off-beat rhythms are what will make a song challenging.

yeah singing high or low octaves don't make a song hard to sing. Singing songs that change octaves violently or songs that are very fast paced to sing are much harder. So Child in Time would and Love Reign O'er me probably would be mildly difficult because of how drastically the octaves change at times, but other than that not that hard.

Love Reign Oer Me would be hard because the LOVE! would curve right up

You heard this particular Beastie Boys song? It's actually pretty slow and more rock

If anything, EPIC's verses is more like (bad) rapping than Sabotage :D

System of the down would be pretty hard.

Yeah Faith No More/Mike Patton was System of a Down/Serj Tankian 10 years before System ever released their Self Titled album. I like Toxicity, but SOAD owes a lot to FNM/Mr. Bungle.

I think that we need some freddie Mercury (queen) for sure. Not saying it would nesscisarily be the hardest but it would sure as hell be the funnest to sing along with. Oh and AFI (Davey Havoc) would be tons of fun to sing to and add some more much needed punk. Just NOT Miss Murder like GH3!

Garden of Eden-Guns N' Roses. The vocals are really fast so it would be really hard.

"End of the World As We Know It" isn't that bad. "One Week" by Barenaked Ladies is way harder.

Epic should be fun to sing. Sabotage scares me.

Not if you're actually singing the words... Besides, One Week never goes more than about 10 words without a break for you to catch your breath, EotWawKI goes at least 20+ between breaths.

Ok, EotWawKI might be a bit more consistently fast, but nothing in it is as tough as this line from One Week:

"Gotta get a set of better clubs gotta find the kind with tiny nubs just so my irons aren't always flying off the backswing"

Actually, let's just say they're both really hard to sing. :cool:

Yeah, I'll agree with that. One week has a few more tongue twisters, EotWawKI is faster.

And both are significantly harder than Sublime and Epic. :p
