The best songs for practicing.

As you evolve in your skills you're going to start finding that the songs that used to challenge you are turning more and more easy to play, and you may start thinking that you have grown as much as you can. But there's nothing more false than this. But don't worry, I totally get and we all have passed that, so making things a little easier, I'm going to recommend you 3 songs that I'm still figuring out because they're hard as hell. I'd like to say that any song can be turned into perfection so practice any song until you can't play it better. So let's start.

1. Make me smile - Chicago.



This song has so many interesting things to practice, that we can probably divide it into little exercises. Danny Sepharine made some great drumming in the studio, a perfect combination of jazz and rock that can actually make us smile.

2. Starship Trooper - Yes.



This is a masterpiece, you can pass hours, months, probably years without figuring out. I personally have problems with the song until these days. Bill Bruford had an amazing technique that he incorporated in a 9-minute progressive rock song.

3. Dance of eternity - Dream Theater.



If you want a challenge for life, try to play this song, and try to emulate all the hits, Mike Portnoy on his drumset. Hard, this song is hard. Many different rhythms and tempos that are going to make you go crazy. Just practice, practice, practice.

And there you have it, 3 songs that will maintain you busy for a long time.
