Yay! I love songs where the singers have a conversation.

Not only that, but HMX are a bunch of hipster hippie's and their programmers can't code for shit. So that doesn't help the situation either.

Full Bat Out Of Hell album DLC would be aces. I'd love to do the title track, Two Out Of Three Aint Bad, Took The Words Right Oughtta My Mouth, Heaven Can Wait, and Paradise of course.

Re: The Official Rock Band Thread of Music Game Evolution

Looks like it's a Valentine's Pack which is pretty awesome!

http://www.rockbandaide.com/10905/dl...h-leaked-early



Yesterday we got wind of a rumor that a track from Meatloaf would be appearing as DLC next week in Rock Band 3. Now it appears that an error in the European Wii store may have inadvertently leaked next week’s DLC announcement early. While this is still a rumor until Harmonix officially announces the DLC, it does corroborate the Meatloaf rumor. The rumor does not include an indication on what songs may have Pro-Guitar/Bass charting.

Animotion – Obsession
B.O.B. feat Hayley Williams – Airplanes
Bonnie Tyler – Total Eclipse of the Heart
The Human League – Don’t You Want Me
Lady Antebellum – Need You Now
Meatloaf – Paradise By The Dashboard Light
Stevie Nicks – Stop Draggin’ My Heart Around
I'm in for everything but Airplanes, for sure. May get the whole pack if it's discounted.

Re: The Official Rock Band Thread of Music Game Evolution

Oh, man! "Don't You Want Me" was ridiculously high on my wish list after I first heard about keys. "Obsession" is a no-brainer for me too. Might get "Total Eclipse of the Heart" for kitsch value. Add in "Paradise by the Dashboard Light", and...wow. I'm really looking forward to next week, assuming this all pans out.

Well, for those bitching about all of the "old people music", there's your song.

Personally, I'm thrilled to get some excellent '80s synthpop. Bring it on!

That has the be the most gloriously insane variety of genres in a single pack. I'm buying the whole thing.

I don't know what Airplanes or Need You Now sound like, at least not just by the song titles, but the rest are on point.

Re: The Official Rock Band Thread of Music Game Evolution

The Human League's song is the only "immediate buy" for me.

I like the most of the other songs but I don't know if enough to buy them unless they were on sale. I have always fucking hated Meatloaf and actually caught Paradise in the car on XM on the 70's channel today and made myself listen to the whole thing just to make sure. Yep, still hate him. Way too theatrical for me and just hard to enjoy. Yeah, some of the lyrics are funny but it's just too harsh on my ears.

I had to youtube the Airplanes song but I have actually heard it before on the Top 20 on XM that I gloss over every now and then. It's nothing special but I would certainly buy it before Meatloaf.

I will probably cave on the Lady A song since it is a good pop hit and my wife loves them. She hates to sing out loud but that song may be the key to her singing along finally on RB. Unfortunately she gives Meatloaf a run for the money in the "can't carry a note" club.

Definitely getting Meatloaf. Honestly, I wish we could have gotten a whole Meatloaf pack.

I just listened to that "Airplanes" song. Never heard it before, but it's catchy enough. Might as well get the whole pack since I'm getting everything else. Awesome job HMX!

The thought of doing the Bat Out Of Hell opening on Expert Keys... *shivers*
