What Song Gives You Trouble?

I don't necessarily mean, what song is too difficult to figure out, but what song have you figured out, practiced and performed, but just doesn't sound right when you play it.

F.C.P.R.E.M.I.X. by the Fall of Troy. I've been working at this thing for over two years, and I can never do the guitar part up to speed using finger style. Tapping I can, but it gets kind of sloppy.

However, working on this song helped me develop my tapping skills. Funny how that works.

Any number of Iron Maiden songs. I just can't get through "run to the hills" or "only the good die young" because my right hand starts to cramp up about after a minute of that galloping. I don't know how Steve Harris gets through an entire gig of that stuff.
