| Facts: |
| "Guitar Hero" (the "single mix" version) was Number One on the Mad Music Dementia Top 20 Podcast (hosted by DJ Particle) on April 18th, 2008, and again two weeks later on May 2nd. It had a 15 place dip in the week between, however, as on the April 25th show it was number 16. (Insane Ian) |
| There are actually TWO versions of this song that have been played on The Mad Music Show. The "rough mix" (which features the scratch vocal track and is missing backing vocals) was played on show 02-15-08 #MMDT20 08-06, and the "single mix" (featuring newly recorded vocals, backing vocals, and a general sense of "ballsiness") was played on show 03-29-08 #MMCZ 08-13, and every appearance of the song since then has been the "Single Mix", despite this listing stating otherwise. This second version is indicative of the version that will appear on Insane Ian's forthcoming album "n3rds0ngs". (Insane Ian) |

| Song Lyrics: |
Standing in Gamestop, with his head hung low
Came for the tourney, wanted to play Halo
But he saw something new, on the video screen
It was a rhythm game, one he’d never seen
He saw a toy guitar, just blew him away
He saw the score rise, and the very next day
Bought a beat up used game and a controller
Didn’t know how to play it, but he knew for sure
That toy guitar, felt good in his hands
Didn’t take long, to understand
Just one guitar, to play those chords
Had to follow the colors, on the little fret board
So he started clickin’
Ain’t never gonna stop
Gotta keep on clickin’
Somehow he made that plastic rock
And was a guitar hero (just watch his score rise)
He’s a guitar hero
He took one guitar, guitar hero (watch his score rise)
Guitar Hero, on Xbox Live tonight
After playin’ all night, about a quarter ‘til four
Flipped and hit star power, and he doubled his score
Like a man possessed, he set to his course
He played “Jordan”, then took on Dragonforce
Now he needs to keep clickin’
Don’t stop to take a p**s
Gotta keep on clickin’
That boy has got bad arth-ri-tis!
But he’s a guitar hero (just watch his score rise)
He’s a guitar hero (just watch his score rise)
Yeah, guitar hero (just watch his score rise)
With that one guitar he’s got five
Five stars tonight
Yeah, he’s gotta keep rockin
Until his fingers hurt
Gotta keep on rockin
One day he’ll beat it on Expert
And be a guitar hero (just watch his score rise)
He’s a guitar hero (just watch his score rise)
It took one guitar, put stars in his eyes
Now he’s just a guitar hero, aah aah aah
Guitar hero, Guitar hero, he’s got stars in his eyes
Watch His Score Rise
