New semester starts on Wednesday of this coming week, and I have Guitar II. I plan to take Guitar III my next and final year, so I hope to do well in the class. I stopped playing guitar since the class, but lately I've been practicing, doing my drills, playing songs, etc, and from experience the best way to practice guitar, is to play the guitar (aka songs, not just sitting in a room playing random notes and identifying them by sound all day.)
So, recommend me some songs that you guys like, who knows, maybe I'll upload a video or two.

Quite a healthy mix of music in my opinion, but I can always expand it ever further. List your favorite guitar songs, artists, tricks etc.
unimportant: I own a cherry red squire (something something) electric guitar, and then my most recent addition, my Ibanez V70CE Dreadnought Acoustic-Electric with Trans Blue paint / finish;
I started playing electric guitar when I was seven, and now I'm seventeen. I (obviously) haven't played a lot, but with the acoustic, I began to play a lot more, even for fun as opposed to just practice. I don't want guitar-playing to be my career, but I think it's a good skill to have and it's something fun to do that people can enjoy, whether the artist or audience.
