This song...I can easily get 4 stars, I believe my highest score is like 280k or so with about 86% accuracy and maybe a 160 note streak. Has anyone here 5 starred it? What's the key? Any pointers? Here are the parts I have trouble with:

At the beginning, where instead of 5 greens it's green, green, yellow, red, green

The part after the first part (after it repeats) where it's like green/yellow (hold), green, green, green, yellow/blue, yellow/orange

And of course the solo's.

Oh, also I play with my left hand inverted so that my fingers are pointing down; it's just the way I learned to play, and I feel it's rather beneficial actually as I can use my thumb for the orange notes.

clearly it's the freakish way you hold the guitar that's holding you back. seriously tho that song just kicks my ass even on hard.

Lol, I wish; I'm better than most people I know and I've never met anyone else that plays like me. I tried converting but it's too difficult since I'm so used to my way, plus I have to move my fingers around which gets disorienting. I haven't played the song on hard in awhile but I bet I could 5 star it. The solos are so much harder on expert, and those are really where I get my ass kicked.

I don't know about the first guitar hero, but in the second one, I don't think it's possible to 5-star a song with under 90% accuracy. :(
