Hints/Tips:
- I stayed away from choruses.
- These are all on albums, none of my 'acoustic version' stuff.
- These are both popular AND non-debuted songs. (Meaning, some you'd hear on the radio, some only on their CD or in movies.)
- Basically, some are easy, some are hard. And all but one (just 'cuz I like the lyric, but I LOVE the band) are on my 'Top Rated List', and if not, the artist is, or it should be. XD
