Elvis or Beatle songs are always good – lot of simple chord play. Rolling Stones are always pretty good starts.
intermediate I recommend: Led Zeppelin – try Whole lotta love. or Ramble on (which girls really love); the ocean, or kashmir
Also try Nirvana or AcDc
Advanced: I recommend Led Zeppelin’s Achilles Last Stand, or When the Levee Breaks,
Van Halen, Metallica, Green Day
The reason I like led zeppelin a lot is cuz it allows you to practise improvisations, which is the bread and butter of a lead guitarist.
Vocals – sorry no my area.
311′s "I’ll Be Here Awhile" is pretty easy. Not sure if that’s your thing though.
I don’t sing, so this info is from a friend who does, but I’m sure it works:
Always, always warm up your vocal chords before singing. If you don’t, you’ll strain them and that will make it worse. There are a bunch of warm-up techniques. One is to hum, changing pitch from low to high. Another is to blow air past your lips so they vibrate (sort of like if you were making the noise a horse makes). I’m sure there are many more exercises, but these are just to start.
