Helter Skelter is definitely at the hardest. If someone could they could compose a list of The Beatles Bass difficulty, (I don't know why you can't arrange it in TB:RB)

I found this. But it's only the on-disc songs.

Helter Skelter. That one and Back in the U.S.S.R are the only songs on bass that I can't 5 star.

I agree with Helter Skelter. I really want to GS it on Bass, but it's proving very difficult. (I Feel Fine is impossible to GS, btw).

I Saw Her Standing There isn't especially hard, it's just an endurance issue.

I'd say the top 5 are as follows. I have also included what I feel they'd be rated in RB 2:

1. "Helter Skelter"
The jam at the end is MURDER. If this were in RB 2, this would remain a 6/6.

2. "I Saw Her Standing There"
Unlike "Helter Skelter", there's no particular section that's the most difficult. It's just difficult due to the endurance required. It's basically a faster version of the "Boys" chorus bass line for the whole song. RB 2 rating: 5/6

3. "Back In The U.S.S.R."
Starts off deceptively easy, the starts throwing quick double strum to new note patterns at you and has a few fast strum parts. Definitely a fun one, but a challenging one nonetheless. RB 2 rating: 4/6 or 5/6

4. "Taxman"
The main riff can cause some challenge for those not used to moving all over the neck, but the 3rd verse (the "if you drive a car..." part) has a very groovy and tricky modified version of the main riff for about 4 measures. RB 2 rating: 5/6 or 4/6

5. "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (Reprise)"
The difficulty mainly comes in the quick hammer-on changes in this song and the quick strums, as well as the tempo and length of song. It's short, fast and furious. Not as challenging as "Helter Skelter" or "Taxman", but defienitely keeps you on your toes and is easily the most challenging of the DLC on bass. RB 2 rating: 4/6 or 5/6

[Iggy-Sparks]

"I Want You (She's So Heavy)" is pretty hard too (the big ending).
Harder than Taxman and Sgt Pepper's.
I don't know why nobody named it.
