Stairway to Heaven
It was my first song, and I nedeed a couple of months to learn to play it completely, but it was worth.
It's rock hymn, evryone should know it

Here's an earlier thread with some good examples..

With the name Whispering Wind I guess you may want to learn Stairway, It's tough on the fingers, but we don't all learn the same way and I'd have some way to go measuring up to Branislav 'cos the first riff I learnt was Smoke On The Water - you can just about guess that one with your eyes shut, as for Stairway ...I still choke when i get to the solo :)

Seriously, try getting some tabs and playing them at a mind dullingly slow rate until you're happy with them and then speeding them up . Work on how two (or more) notes slide together or sound together in a riff and how that riff or phrase sounds,rather than how the notes sound.

Good Luck and have a look at some of the beginner tricks in the site.
