For a time, “Party Like a Rockstar” was the most played rhythmic, and rap song in the United States, according to Radio & Records It was featured in the video game NBA Live 08.
The remix features Lil Wayne, Jim Jones and Chamillionaire with more guitar riffs included. Jim Jones’ verse didn’t make it to iTunes’ remix, although Lil Wayne’s verse and Chamillionaire’s verse did. Another unofficial remix has been produced by Lil Jon and the Swedish composer Jay Orpin, who also wrote the first remix, but had Lil’ Jon make changes for the beat for this remix. That remix has been unofficially called the Orpinz Old Duff WWE Remix because some feel it resembles a professional wrestlers entrance music. There is also a freestyle version by J. R.

11 Year Old Jordan at his end of term guitar lesson, siniging I’m Yours. He’s only been learning for a short time, his teacher is also playing and his wife (teachers wife) is playing the electric drums in the background.
Thank you EPPIC ( http://www.youtube.com/eppictv ) and Joel Burns (drummer), for helping me with this track! They did a WONDERFUL job! Make sure you check out EPPIC and sub to his channel: http://www.youtube.com/eppictv (we are recording together in June).
I thought I should re-write this to clarify a few things!
This is my arrangement of the “Inspector Gadget” TV show theme song. I noticed YouTube has a few electric-guitar versions but doesn’t have any acoustic versions.
Thom Yorke and Jonny Greenwood of Radiohead perform at Electric Lady Studio the track ‘There There’ from the album ‘Hail To The Thief’. This is from the Morning Becomes Eclectic session for KCRW (thanks to comments).

Are you that every CD that has a tuning track for guitars that only plays each string only like three times? If you don’t have a guitar tuner or anything like that, try this. This plays every string nine times so you have more time to tune each string on the guitar.(This was made with a CD that played each string three times(for electric and acoustic) so I edit it. Might not be so good but it helps me…used to. Haha.)
