"I Love Rock & Roll" is a song by in Guitar Hero and was also featured in the Guitar Hero 2nd Edition Carabiner handheld toy and Guitar Hero: Smash Hits video game. It is known for being the first song in the first tier in the first Guitar Hero, and its inclusion into Smash Hits is a warm tribute to its popularity as the very first song in the franchise.

In the first Guitar Hero, no one sings with the female singer, while in Guitar Hero: Smash Hits, the crowd, The Guitarist and The Bassist sing along.
Difficulty[]
"I Love Rock & Roll" is considered one of the easiest songs in the entire franchise, competing with "Slow Ride", "Closer", and "They Say".
As this is the first song in the game, You should not have any problems with it at all. If you are a new player, this may take several tries learning the first Guitar Hero game's strict gameplay mechanics. But other then that, it is a very easy song to pass and full combo.
The Guitar Hero: Smash Hits is even easier as the better HOPO mechanics make the solo easier than it was in Guitar Hero.

Lyrics[]
- I saw him dancin' there by the record machine
- I knew he must a been about seventeen
- The beat was goin' strong
- Playin' my favorite song
- And I could tell it wouldn't be long
- 'Til he was with me, yeah, me
- And I could tell it wouldn't be long
- 'Til he was with me, yeah, me, singin'
- I love rock n' roll
- So put another dime in the jukebox, baby
- I love rock n' roll
- So come and take your time and dance with me
- Ow
- He smiled, so I got up and asked for his name
- "That don't matter", he said, "'cause it's all the same"
- I said, "Can I take you home where we can be alone?"
- And next we were movin' on
- He was with me, yeah, me
- Next we were movin' on
- He was with me, yeah, me singin'
- I love rock n' roll
- So put another dime in the jukebox, baby
