That’s like asking what my “favorite” album is, or “favorite” food. It means different things according to the context.
Learning a song can mean getting the chords and hallmark licks down recognizably, plus the lyrics, since I think of the guitar as an accompaniment to voice most the time.
But if I’m going to perform this song, “learning” it has a much higher standard. I will develop my own arrangement to some degree over time, and I will know the song cold because I’ve played it many times.
