Walkthrough[]

A very chokeable song, Ziggy Stardust is usually considered to be the hardest FC in Tier 4 of GH1 by far. Although the original master recording of this song would make for a rather easy chart, WaveGroup made two changes to their cover that greatly affect this chart and its difficulty to FC. First is the solo; the original song does not have a guitar solo at all but WaveGroup decided to add one, which includes a rather unexpected and fast blob of notes around the middle, an extremely easy choke point. The second change is the outro where a set of triplets similar to the end of the solo in Take it Off happens; these ones are not as fast, but they go on for a lot longer than that song. These two parts make for a frustrating FCing experience and not one you should tackle early on in the game. The star power route for this song is not very interesting, if you really want to see some squeezes on this song here is the [1] ScoreHero Ranking.
