The first complete song I learnt was Parisienne Walkways by Gary Moore which mightnt count because I did most of it by imprevisation by ear. The firest riff I did was the intro to Stairway To Heaven and the first piece I learnt (or tried to) was Angi by Davy Graham.

I think the first song I ever learned was "Walk Like a Man." From practicing that one day I figured out "Enter Sandman." Pretty funny, eh?

I'd say my first song was "Crazy Train" by Ozzy
I used to love that song, it's still pretty cool

'Stairway to Heaven' by the Zep and 'Closer to Home' by Grand Funk Railroad.

Hey, don't laugh at that last one.

It seems like everyone I know has started on one of these three
Knocking On Heaven's Door-Gn'R-(my first)
Every Rose has Its Thorn-Poison-cheesy, but if you are from the late 80's/early 90's, you know you played it

while my friends were trying to figure out how to play basic chords (A, C, ...), I was trying to figure out the
"Sweet Child o' mine" intro by Guns N Roses.

Smoke on the water and Sweet Child o mine are good songs to start to play the guitar.
