Well the only one I know that would work out is The Root Of All Evil, Its actually Eb but I suppose E standard wouldnt be too much different.

I played in a DT coverband and in my opinion one of the easiest songs to play is Peruvian sky. Surrounded is easy too if you can manage the tempo. And Strange Deja Vu is fun.
Those are the ones that spring to mind. -------------------- Amps Hughes & Kettner Switchblade 100W head, Peavey Classic 30 Tweed combo, Blackstar HT5 head, Vox AC4TV
412 Fame cabinet with Celestion Vintage 30's, 412 Marshall cabinet with G12T75 speakers, Line6 POD X3 Live, Blackstar 1x10 Guitars: Ibanez RG320FM - Charvel unknown with DiMarzio Breed (only neck, bridge is empty for now. Breed to come as soon as I know which singlecoil to put in the middle) - Squier Stratocaster - Epiphone LP standard with DiMarzio Super distortion (bridge) + original bridge pu (neck) Wishlist some sleep and a life, in that order All time favourites: B. Streisand - Woman in Love, M. Hopkin - Those were the days, L. Richie - Hello Guitarbuilding blog |

Erotomania - tricky and fun to play
Under A Glass Moon - one of the coolest solos ever Overture 1928 Metropolis - tricky but fun This songs are my favourite DT songs to play and they are all in E. -------------------- |

Pull Me Under is a good one that got radio airplay. It's also a song that mere mortals can attempt, and pull off. But, if you can play any of this stuff accurately , all the way through, then you are quite the player. I salute you!
