Just a quick question here. I am trying to learn this song. Actually, I did learn it, but dunno bout the solo. Should I tap the first part, or pick it? I can do it both ways. Tapping is easier and it sounds cleaner, but picking seems more, uh, dunno? It has more ring to it. Dunno how to explain it. Watched the video few times, the guy picks it. What do you fellas think?

Who's version of the final countdown?
The original I presume?

I would say master it picking cleaning to build up your picking chops a bit :) then again I prefer Alt picking everything.
