Jordan

From WikiHero

Jordan, by Buckethead, is the only studio version of the song, recorded just for Guitar Hero II. A A term frequently used when talking about Jordan is the "Blue Note of Freedom". It is commonly said that if someone can reach this blue hold note after solo C, one should be able to complete the rest of the song.

Solos B and C are considered the hardest parts of the entire song, most of the time only passable with the use of star power. A nickname for these solos is "The Sea of Skittles" because of the intensive amount of notes.

[edit] Trivia

While this song is ludicrously difficult to complete, there is a very high chance that you will four- or five star the song should you complete the solos. There are numerous Star Power phrases along with easy notes to hit allowing you to score enormous amounts of points in the second half of the song. So, if you were to enter the solos with around 70,000 to 100,000 points you could still come out with 250,000 points even if you just barely pass the solos with Star Power.

  • It was mentioned in the popular TV show South Park, when Stan says 'Can you play Buckethead on Expert?'.
