OK, so considering the numerous requests for Trans Siberian Orchestra, as repetitive as this is now, I'll forgoe flames and drop in the three songs that would probably fit the best into Rock Band from them for Christmas or at least playable at other times and not seem wierd.
One of the problems with TSO and putting it into rock band is that each of the CD's are released and are sort of like storybooks, especially if you go see them in concert, they tell a story that links the songs together. So ripping these out individually becomes a problem. Plus, all of the Rock Band songs don't usually have a specific instrument that stands as the main one, so Sarajevo 12/24, as cool as it is, wouldn't work unless they could find a way to include the vocalist above and beyond just a bunch of Secondary Percussion.
1.) Christmas Nights in Blue (http://www.trans-siberian.com/lyrics/lostxmaseve05-xmasnightsinblue.shtml#nightsblue) from "The Lost Christmas Eve"
2.)Christmas Cannon (http://www.trans-siberian.com/lyrics/xmasattic4-xmascannon.shtml) from "The Christmas Attic" This is one of the songs that kind of suffers from no narration, but it's still fun to sing along with.
3.) Old City Bar (http://www.trans-siberian.com/lyrics/xmaseve6-oldcitybar.shtml#oldcity)from "Christmas Eve and Other Stories"
Those are my three picks. Heck, I'd even shell out the whole $2.00 for Christmas Nights in Blue.
