I didn't snap a pic fast enough since I was doing a set, but I 5 starred Supreme Girl on Expert with 61,729 points. The 5th star seemed to come AFTER the note was over (and its not a solo). This has to be extremely close to the real value. It was last tick.

For Peace Sells album, here are my VERY rough estimates:

Bad Omen: 193k
Devil's Island: 263k
Good Mourning/Black Friday: 322k
I Ain't Superstitious: 98k? (no idea, really, since everyone gets it on the last solo bonus)
My Last Words: 231k (MUST FC solo to get this high, unless you hit a LOT of the strumming, which you won't. A run with FC outside of the solo and strumming isn't GS)
The Conjuring: 255k
Wake Up Dead: 166k

Hi guys, not sure if this is at all helpful, but I have a lower gold star score for Funky Monks. I got it by fluke as I got the gold star ding on the last note. My score is 140,785. I couldn't take a picture as I didn't have anything at the time at home to take pictures with, but I hope you guys can take my word for it. After all there isn't really any reason for me to lie about less than 50 point difference.

Okay, first off, Im so glad I found this guide

Second, I started 5 starring some of the ones marked in red and getting it almost to an exact point (almost failed most of the time doing it :P)

Exact1 = Stopped playing and paused the game as soon as the five star hit. I even played the songs more than once to double check. And most of the time i would lose my multiplier when i got close to finishing the 5 stars so i got a more exact reading

Exact2 = The five star mark hit while i was in the proccess of whamying a note. So I paused as soon as the 5 star mark was hit. (I was watching the stars the whole time as it got closer towards 5 stars.

Witch Hunt -- 100,607 (Exact1)
Vital Signs -- 91,232 (Exact2)
Tom Sawyer (Original Version) -- 78,593 (Exact2)
The Camera Eye -- 192,480 (Exact1)
Red Barchetta -- 119,749 (Exact1)
Limelight (Original Version) -- 100,294 (Exact1)

I would have taken a picture, but i couldnt find anything to take a picture with to save my life lol

Hope this is of use to the list

(These are the only songs I have that are marked red.)

I just played through She's A Handsome Woman, and these are my results:

5 Stars: 58,669

5 Gold Stars: 86,164

Both were taken after having paused immediately after the star sound played. I can't remember how close 5S was, but 5GS should be within 300 points.

I was playing Ramblin' man and I hit GS about half way through the final sustain note (Last note of the song). I got 210,872, though I didn't let go of the sustain 'cause I wasn't really planning on getting GS, so I didn't think quick enough to let go. But still, the sustain isn't long at all, and I really don't think I could have gotten 1k through half of that short sustain.

Are you sure your GS cutoff isn't a bit low? Or did you get that score manually?

Firstly I would like to say thank you to all who have comiled this list, its really helped me pick out the songs i was close to GSing.

Secondly I just scored 139,529 on Manu Chao. I noticed the ding and my stars turn gold right at the very end of the last note, but before the BRE. I scored 4,590 in the BRE. This brings my score before BRE to 134,939. I obviously had plenty of time to check my stars were gold and my score since I wasn't gaining points during the BRE.

I noticed that my pre-BRE score of 134,939 is lower than the current one posted. I've not completely read into what proof is needed to submit a score however I assume a picture is needed stating final score, song name, difficulty etc. I took a picture of my score after the song ended but unfortunately that does add on the 4,590 I scored on the BRE. So I ask, Is my lower score valid at all. If needed I can post the picture of my higher score.

Thanks,
DH

EDIT: I noticed at the top of the page on your introduction it says 'It was hard updating nearly 400 songs'. I just thought this might need changing now that there are over 400.
