POLL: The 45th Song

[Killercroissants]

What do you think it'll be?

I personally don't think the LAST song to be announced necessarily means it'll be the FINAL song of the Beatles' career.

So I think that it'll be A Day in the Life.

Tell me what you think! :D

[RADIO CHRIS]

"REAL LOVE" duh

[Killercroissants]

I KNEW you would post that here at one point! You're the honorary pro-Real Love person in this forum! :D

You're very outspoken about it, too :P

[colahead420]

I'm not sure.

I would guess The End or A Day In The Life, but I don't want either of them, since Abbey Road and Sgt. Pepper's are DLC.
My third guess would be In My Life, but again... DLC.

I voted Strawberry Fields Forever because I really don't have a clue, I would love to see it in the game though. They're a bit weak on the Magical Mystery Tour.

[JimmyRyan]

I hope that it's Help!

[iAmtheWalrus]

Go Hey Jude support team!

[TheObscure]

In My Life plox.

[frankieman]

I still think Hey Jude would be the best choice, it's the song a whole lot of people will want to play right outta the box. It would also be a party classic!

If I would have choose without other people in mind I'd go for Strawberry Fields, I mean it's such a important song in their career and also one of the best.

[Apples]

Hasn't this been pretty much confirmed via the achievement list anyway?

I mean, it is starting to look like people are in denial that (favorite song X) might have gotten left off the initial 45 song list. So theyre clinging to this false hope that it's the secret/unannounced song.

[Killercroissants]

A Day in the Life team, ASSEMBLE!!!

We need to beat those misguided The Enders!!! >: )

[SexyCake]

Comon Hey Jude support fannatics, lets win this poll !!!!!!!!!!!!!

[iAmtheWalrus]

I don't see how you can judge by the achievement list, or I missed something awhile back in the forums.

Nothing has been confirmed yet, it's still anyone's game, really.

The End doesn't make nearly as much sense as some other songs, and the new trailer plus the comment made by the Twitter people makes it even more likely of a "surprise" 45th song.

I think I agree with Apples. I mean, people are really just coming up with their favourite song for number 45 and clinging to them. And with Apples being linked to HMX as he is, I wouldn't be surprised if the last song really is what people say it is.

[iAmtheWalrus]

Or after all of this commotion, HMX could be trying to make you think one way with these clues (or multiple ways, in this case) and blind side you with another song, unspoken of!

[frankieman]

The best argument against The End is the one I read just a minute ago, The End can not be a secret song because we already know we're gonna get it anyways. If HMX would have wanted a secrect song they should have picked another one.

[Killercroissants]

The best argument against The End is the one I read just a minute ago, The End can not be a secret song because we already know we're gonna get it anyways. If HMX would have wanted a secrect song they should have picked another one.

That also eliminates many of the other likely possibilities: A Day in the Life, In My Life, any formation of the Abbey Road Medley...

Which still leaves Let it Be, Hey Jude, and some others...that is, of course, if that is true.

I don't know any more than the average forum goer with respect to the Beatles project.

I am just trying to be a pragmatist. My observation is that people are banking such high expectations on one mystery song. Expectations that can't all possibly be filled.

There are at least 5 good "finale" songs I could think of off the top of my head (and probably more that I can't think of). But there's only one song. That's at best a 1 in 5 chance, or an 80% chance of disappointment.

I'm just trying to put things in perspective so that when the song does get revealed the forums don't get deluged under posts expressing disappoinmentt and criticism that the "wrong" final song was picked.

[ArchangelZero]

Or after all of this commotion, HMX could be trying to make you think one way with these clues (or multiple ways, in this case) and blind side you with another song, unspoken of!

After all the trouble HMX went through to make this like a world's most unnerving scavanger hunt (it is unnerving because we can't wait for the rest of it to be revealed), there are practically no definite answers to Song 45.

[Killercroissants]

Which is why speculation is encouraged here :)

[frankieman]

Well I have basicly came to peace with The End being it so any other song would be great but I wouldn't mind if it really is The End. Win-Win situation!

[Killercroissants]

Well, I guess you won't be disappointed then, lol :D

[tingly]

The game itself had a 80% chance of disappointment of not having your fave song on it (pretending on-disc songs are random). I'm at a 95% chance of The End being the encore, a 5% chance of otherwise.

[Julio_Strikes_Back]

I am content with any of the songs listed above, personally.

[Killercroissants]

Yeh, me too...I added two of the above (not saying which they are) because they seem to be popular choices, though...I know for a fact that they will not be appearing in the game for reasons apart from personal taste.

[Hetz]

Unfortunatily, The End. :(

It should be In My Life or A Day In the Life or Free As A Bird

[jay4428]

It probably is The End, but that doesn't make sense on a few fronts: (1) Why have a "surprise" song that will be DLC anyway in a few weeks from launch, why cause buildup and suspense for no reason? (2) The End belongs to the Medley - playing it separately doesn't seem right. (3) It doesn't fit the description of the Brian's Song ending, unless you play The End first and then it goes to the cinematic which contains more heartfelt songs (non-playable like the opening).

[HocusPocus]

Personally, I would like to see a medley of two songs (or three songs, but I think two is best) for the ending...but others are surely to complain about that idea.

[tingly]

Brian's Song ending = closing cinematic. I've wondered why the game would end in something teary. I'd rather have something energetic that makes me say, "LET'S PLAY AGAIN!!!" The End has that for the guitars at least, if the encore is after the cinematic.

[noobert]

ive seen so much info about the end that its prolly correct. hoping for hey jude though

[Rod_Stixx]

(3) It doesn't fit the description of the Brian's Song ending, unless you play The End first and then it goes to the cinematic which contains more heartfelt songs (non-playable like the opening).

The End makes more sense by itself than you might think. Sure, it fits really well into the medley, and people are so used to hearing it as part of the medley. McCartney has been playing The End following Sgt Pepper's (reprise) at the end of his shows for most of the last decade. It works by itself better than you might think.

A surprise song in the game is a surprise song in the game. Whether it comes out a few days later, a few weeks later, a month later...a surprise is a surprise. Does anybody really think Day In The Life, Hey Jude, and songs like that aren't going to make it in sooner or later? Day is already part of Pepper's album DLC if it isn't the surprise song.

[Sargehalo51]

Praying for Rain here!

[autumnmantis]

I think it will be a Paul song either way. That would make John and Paul very close in total songs (for both singing and writing).

[TheCulprit]

CAN The End be AFTER the cinematic? Wouldn't that make the time between achievements longer than 2:55?

...I suppose the guy could have pressed a button to skip the cinematic, but who would want to do that?

[tingly]

Oh, that's a good point. *If* the trailer isn't edited, that would make Don't Let Me Down the last song.

[winkus]

Praying for Rain here!

Rain is not in the game for sure, it was mentioned in Game Informer.

[Zerobox94]

The End.

[DookieMan]

I mainly voted for what I really want. A Day in the Life. The end of the third trailer makes me think that also. And I really, really don't want the End.

[cutmaclass]

The final playable song is probably The End, but honestly I'm expecting the final cinematic to include snippets of Hey Jude and A Day In The Life (it WAS referenced at the end of the opening cinematic, and the final cinematic picks up where the intro left off).

[Sargehalo51]

Rain is not in the game for sure, it was mentioned in Game Informer.

Ok...I'm confused.

[Killercroissants]

I have the game informer and I read nothing about Rain being excluded.

Please quote a bit for me and my mate here :D

As far as I know, unless it was completely made from snippets of the Beatles, but recorded primarily outside of the Beatles actual lifetime, then it will most likely make it in. Rain stands a pretty high chance as far as I know; it is, afterall, "the best B-side..."

[HarrisonFan]

Free as a bird is such a bad ass song i dont know why they would not put it as the last song

[i_c_weiner]

The achievements also make reference to Penny Lane and other songs, and they aren't in the game. The reference to The End with the encore achievement might just be that: a reference.

Also, I'm on Club 90's Singles. One of them would be so awesome to play. More likely Free As A Bird since it's better known and has separate singing sections for John, Paul, and George, but I love Real Love more.

[Electric_Zen]

I mean, it is starting to look like people are in denial that (favorite song X) might have gotten left off the initial 45 song list. So theyre clinging to this false hope that it's the secret/unannounced song.

This is absolutely correct. People who are interested in "facts" and "evidence" have already accepted (or celebrated!) that The End is the 45th song, and have moved on.

Other folks (from this poll, a surprisingly large amount!) are not prepared to accept that. There are also people to this day who are convinced 9/11 was an inside job, or that Barack Obama was not born in the United States.

[QB8Young]

I am hoping for "Help!"

Remind me again how some Random Person from Singapore could possibly have the Beatles: Rock Band and could then be confirmed a reliable source of information and I'm prepared to agree with you.

Until then, please don't deny people their rights to speculate for more reasonable song choices.

[Electric_Zen]

Remind me again how some Random Person from Singapore could possibly have the Beatles: Rock Band and could then be confirmed a reliable source of information and I'm prepared to agree with you.

Similar to the way people got advanced copies of Rock Band and Rock Band 2. Among the possibilities:

1. He got a leaked pirated copy.
2. He has connections to one of the facilities that is printing physical copies of the game.
3. He has connections to someone who is doing offshored QA on the Gold master.

The trophy info is displayed Sony's website and infrastructure. This is not user-generated content. You can formulate conspiracy theories about how Sony was hacked, but we'll just have to agree to disagree.

[lucaspaul22]

Free as a bird is such a bad ass song i dont know why they would not put it as the last song

Because John was dead when they recorded it.

The trailer could be edited as far we know.

Is the emphasis yours? Also, just because it says "Watch all the way to the end" doesn't mean The End is the song; it means to not miss the elephant part.

[QB8Young]

You can't bold, italicize, or change text color in a Twitter post... so yes the emphasis is mine.

[Lily_Mu]

Have the songs been announced?

[iAmtheWalrus]

I have the game informer and I read nothing about Rain being excluded.


Did you buy it in stores? Cause I subscribed to GI and I didn't get my issue yet!

[Killercroissants]

Did you buy it in stores? Cause I subscribed to GI and I didn't get my issue yet!

Nah, I just stole my friend's copy, lol!! :D

[tingly]

The trailer could be edited as far we know.I knew someone wouldn't be able to resist saying it, even tho I had with the 'if'. :)

[iAmtheWalrus]

Nah, I just stole my friend's copy, lol!! :D

Then how'd he get it?

[Daytripped]

The End is obliviously NOT the last song. They're would be way too much songs from Abbey Road.

[Killercroissants]

Then how'd he get it?

He got it in the mail...I don't know much more than that. Soz :(

[Wave57]

My friend told me that GI only issues to a certain subscriber or whatever every two months. Don't know if that's true or not.

[Killercroissants]

Wave, how much do you know about pre-ordering (namely, from Best Buy?)

[Wave57]

Wave, how much do you know about pre-ordering (namely, from Best Buy?)

Not much considering this is my first Pre-order.
But what does that have to do with anything?

[tingly]

I know a lot, but they aren't allowing it for the LE bundle, at least not yet.

[Killercroissants]

Nevermind Wave.

Tingly, do tell, they mentioned something about "shipping and handling charges"

Does that mean they are going to deliver it to me?

[tingly]

Yep, it's free for in-store pickup. If the option ever happens, you take the debit/credit card, photo ID and order number (I print the receipt) to the pickup counter, they verify, and dig it out of the back room. You can skip the registers afterwards, just go straight to security at the exit and show your receipt.

[Meatwad555]

I want it to be Strawberry Fields Forever, but I voted Other for no reason.

[Killercroissants]

Thanks Tingly.

So basically I don't even need to worry about running out of the game on the release date? They will be shipping it to me?

You have to be very direct with me or it puts me through confusion, lol! :)

[iAmtheWalrus]

They reserve you a copy!

[Killercroissants]

O M G!

Awesome! :)

The only thing I think could be better is them actually delivering it to me...and possibly drop off some soda, a pizza (cheese and olive), and throw in a free DLC card!! :D

I'm hungry, who's down for pizza? :)

[tingly]

Home delivery comes from wherever the warehouse is, Kentucky or Nevada or somewhere. In-store pickup has your local store take the box directly from storage to the back room behind the pickup counter.

I've gotten so if I know what I wanna buy, even if it's been on sale for months, I'll order with in-store pickup and save myself the trouble of tracking it down on the shelves.

[Killercroissants]

Oi...so what you're saying is that I may have screwed myself? :(

(this isn't good)

[tingly]

I usually get preordered albums from Amazon on Monday instead of Tuesday. If Best Buy is the same, we may be holding your claim of having the game on the 8th and knowing song 45 under intense scrutiny. ;) Having it come out a day later than normal may cause early delivery oopsies.

[Killercroissants]

So...do you think clarification on this option of being either the delivered version or a pick-up item would be on my receipt?

[Lawl01]

Old Brown Shoe

'Nuff said.

[Sgt-Raccoon]

I have no idea what the last song will be. I would like Free As a Bird/ Real Love but I’ll be amazed if it is. A Day in the Life or The End would make sense. But it would be best if it were Carnival of Light!

[tingly]

You should be able to see something about it by looking up your order on bestbuy.com.

[Killercroissants]

Thanks Tingly! :)

You're a life-saver! :D

[lucaspaul22]

The End is owning this poll!

[RockBandRocker]

I think it will be the 7 minute version of "Hey Jude".

Just look at the lyrics:

Hey jude, dont make it bad.
Take a sad song and make it better.
Remember to let her into your heart,
Then you can start to make it better.

Hey jude, dont be afraid.
You were made to go out and get her.
The minute you let her under your skin,
Then you begin to make it better.

And anytime you feel the pain, hey jude, refrain,
Dont carry the world upon your shoulders.
For well you know that its a fool who plays it cool
By making his world a little colder.

Hey jude, dont let me down.
You have found her, now go and get her.
Remember to let her into your heart,
Then you can start to make it better.

So let it out and let it in, hey jude, begin,
You're waiting for someone to perform with.
And dont you know that its just you, hey jude, you'll do,
The movement you need is on your shoulder.

Hey jude, dont make it bad.
Take a sad song and make it better.
Remember to let her under your skin,
Then you'll begin to make it
Better better better better better better, oh.

Na na na na na ,na na na, hey jude...

I Bolded and Underlined the important lyrics.

"Hey Jude" sums everything up, and that even though it's the end of The Beatles, it's just the beginning of their legacy.

[Killercroissants]

Yeh, it's a great song for vocals...not so much for anything else, though.

I think it'd make sense to include it for its own sentimental values, but not much beyond that :(

[iAmtheWalrus]

Yeh, it's a great song for vocals...not so much for anything else, though.

I think it'd make sense to include it for its own sentimental values, but not much beyond that :(

It has some drum fills in there, I can hear a bass line and guitar. It's perfectly fine, more exciting than A Day in the Life. (Although I love that song too)

Just imagine playing through the career with your best friends.. and the last four minutes of Hey Jude.. all of you together singing it. Best. Ever.

[Killercroissants]

You have a point.

I'm also glad that you didn't point out how this would make a great ending song, we still have not been told that the 45th is the last song in the game.

[lucaspaul22]

No Hey Jude ever!

[lucaspaul22]

The last song is The End.

[iAmtheWalrus]

You have a point.

I'm also glad that you didn't point out how this would make a great ending song, we still have not been told that the 45th is the last song in the game.

Why would they be hiding a song that you play in the middle? But, I guess you're right.

I just think it'd be perfect to end it off with Hey Jude. If not, play it somewhere in there. I'd even make a setlist of all the songs and have Hey Jude at the end.

[Killercroissants]

Says some random guy from Singapore -- err, Poland?

Take a look, our "valuable Singaporeon (sp)" turns out to have some identity issues now >: D

[tingly]

I explained that to you already. Back to reality...

[RockBandRocker]

I honestly think "Hey Jude" would make a better ending.

In my opinion, it would fit after "Don't Let Me Down". You go from a rather (IMO) depressing song like "Don't Let Me Down" to a song that is (IMO) pretty hopeful like "Hey Jude".

[Stinger503]

All You Need Is Love

[Dante1847]

I voted "Hey Jude" simply because it would be an epic closer

[Killercroissants]

I'm just going to throw this one out there: All My Loving

[deadpool247]

I feel it'll be Free As A Bird/Real Love

[iAmtheWalrus]

I'm just going to throw this one out there: All My Loving

This. All My Loving is one of my favorites.

[Killercroissants]

I don't think they'll actually include it, but it is always something to keep in mind. At this point, with what little we know about the final song, it really could be anything, but there are a handful of songs that seem likely.

[beatles4ever]

i want Help!

[Killercroissants]

Help!, I think, is a likely choice for many reasons.

[Stewie]

Let It Be

Nuff said

[KozmicRiff]

The End is such a short song and also we are getting it in the Abbey Road album anyways so I hope it is another song. I think that Two of Us would be a sweet song to end on.

Either way, can not wait till 09/09/09!

[Llamaaction]

With I Want You on the roof, I have renewed hope for Rain.

[clashcityrocker10]

"Carnival of Light"

[Killercroissants]

I'm guessing most of the "Other..." responses are "Carnival of Light" then?

[clashcityrocker10]

I'm guessing most of the "Other..." responses are "Carnival of Light" then?

Well, I voted "other" under the impression that it's "Carnival of Light," so that's at least 7% of the "other" vote towards "Carnival of Light."

In all honesty, my guess is "The End." I can't imagine a piece like "Carnival of Light" working in a Rock Band game, just based off of descriptions of the song I've read.

[Theenditaint]

I was searching the web for TB:RB info, when I came across two interesting things. One was an announcement from Harmonix saying Abbey Road will be released around Oct. 20, including a medley that u can buy that let's u play And Your Bird Can Sing all the way through any remaining Abbey Road songs, to The End. And why would they include The End, when it is going to be on DLC. The second interesting thing I found was, someone at the E3 interviewed someone in the Harmonix Band and asked him, "So what are your favorite songs that you have been able to play in your time with TB:RB?" he then said "Well it's really hard to say, I liked playing Back in the USSR, WMGGW, and HEY JUDE a lot, but all the songs are really fun to play." This was posted today online, search "Beatles Rock Band" and u should find it. It was posted August 21st.

And Your Bird Can Sing is not on Abbey Road

[Theenditaint]

Lol, sorry, for somereason I always get And Your Bird Can Sing, EBGSTHEMAMM, and You Never Give Me Your Money mixed up, I meant to say You Never Give Me Your Money, sorry!

[Robondacob]

I would like A Day In The Life, but it'll probably not be that so I'm hoping for Hey Jude.

[elitemastersam]

EBGSTHEMAMM
You mean EGSTHEMAMM, right?

[N-Play]

it HAS To be Hey jude

1. It's the 7st greastest song of all time. (Rolling stone)

[Fred Gherkin]

I have to say, I'm much too lazy/drunk to look at the whole thread, but I think that 'It Won't Be Long' from With the Beatles would be a superb final addition.

I know that it's not as popular as any of the poll songs (I'd love to see any of them, and SFF is my favorite song of all time), but seriously. Good guitar, good bass, good drums, sweet vocals/backing vocals.

The only thing against it is that it's not a popular song. It IS one of my favorites, though. I guess I'm delusional. I can only hope.

[Moony_Lupin]

Has anyone considered the tobacco reference in the rating? Wouldn't that make A Day in the Life a strong contender? Do any of the other disc songs contain a smoking reference? Apologies if this has already been discussed.

[tingly]

I Am the Walrus and whatever the rooftop song is that shows a guy smoking a pipe.

[psirocker]

Choking smokers?
So, that wouldn't be as obvious as A Day in the Life.

Wait, sorry if I'm being to optimistic, I really want it in the game.

[psirocker]

They could be lying.

[Moony_Lupin]

Well, there goes my theory.

[Moony_Lupin]

I'm choosing C- Flying. Maybe we'll play Flying on an old "flying" pirate ship being pulled by bald eagles as a final venue... wait a minute.

[tingly]

It wouldn't be a lie cuz it doesn't say it's one of the 4. They could add songs, change to a new 4, leave them as the only 4 and have it be an unlisted song... None of that = lie. Tho, if I had to bet, I'd bet on it being one of the 4

[foolosophy]

The amount of folks in denial that it's something other than The End, is kinda saddening. Then again, Beatles fans tend to be "dreamers" so it makes sense.

And for everyone saying that "well there are other achievements that reference songs we aren't getting", yes you're right - but only partially. Every achievement that involves a specific song is labeled by a lyrical reference from that song.

Plus, let's face it, The End is a logical closer that includes fun parts on every instrument. Giles Martin already said that they chose songs based on "fun to play" versus popularity. And the final lyrics in The End basically sum up the entire message of The Beatles and their music.

I've seen the list of Trophies in a youtube video, and there were secret ones. So where did you see the secret ones?

[ckycamp]

I think that It is " She Loves You". They said It was a surprise why would the surprise be obvious. She Loves You was the first biggest song for beatles in the states according to Wikipedia. I think the list is a sham. But if any off the list the best song for rock band would be Help!.

[ckycamp]

It was confirmed by the Official Beatles Rock Band Facebook Page that it's one of these 4 songs
A.Help!
B.Hey Jude
C.Flying
D.Yesterday

I understand that, but how do you know that Harmonix isnt just fooling everyone.

The facebook page doesn't confirm, although it may have meant to.

why would they post it, if they were lying about it?

I dont know maybe to get people talking about the game more. To get information on dlc for players. People are saying "the End" and other songs. I just seems to me the 4 they picked from arent the best choices for the game. Dont get me wrong they are great songs. But the only song out of the four I can see as the last is Help. Hey Jude, great song cant see it in rock band. Yesterday Great song as well cant see it rock band. Flying just doesnt seem to have it to be a secret or surprise. I personally dont trust harmonixs, look at their downloadable content one week its Green day and the next James Brown. This is the reason why I love rock band. These people throw curveballs. Unlike Activision Blizzard or whatever they are called this week. Harmonix is true to their fans and players, and they like to mess with us. Hey its one of the four maybe Im a moron. Hell maybe the secret is that all four are the surprise to make everyone happy. I have know clue. Those are my guesses.

In My Life.

Underrated song. I mean, omg, everybody knows Hey Jude, Strawberry Fields, Let It Be...

In My Life is beautiful. And I know how to play the clavichord solo, btw lol

[Gear_RA_RA_RA]

There are places I reeemember, all my li-ife...

that or across the universe rofl

But seriously, I voted Hey Jude. Altogether now, naaa, na na, nanana na

[Theenditaint]

Well right now it could be Hey Jude, Flying, or Yesterday. I didn't add The End because it HAS been announced as DLC. With The End gone, I believe it is Hey Jude. I mean seriously, it would be a great song for hopping on the elephant-rhino creature and just singing Hey Jude as you fade into the credits.

Just because you can't see it in Rock Band, doesn't mean it won't be in there. It has all the instruments you need, they just don't start right away. So what? They come in within the first minute. It'd be fine on Rock Band, and between this GameStopTV and the 4 choices on Face Book, Hey Jude isn't an unlikely choice.

Well I guess we will see. Thats probably why I dont work for Harmonix even though I'm like 40 minutes from there office. I am still going with she loves you as the last song. If hey jude is the last song I am not going to be unhappy.

"Across the Universe" should be added as an option...that song would make for a great closer

[Paris903]

Help!

Guys, the game is in chronological order. The final song of the game, won't be from their fifth album, it'll be from their last few albums, most likely off of Let It Be.

My money is one "Across the Universe", but I know for a fact it won't be Help!

It's in chronological order? Seriously? Whoa!!

No but I'm guessing since the fact that the last song is going to be on the Elephino and it isn't an actual venue, it won't matter which song they play. And if you want to talk about chronological order, why is A Hard Day's Night on Ed Sullivan Show? It just is.




The amount of folks in denial that it's something other than The End, is kinda saddening. Then again, Beatles fans tend to be "dreamers" so it makes sense.

And for everyone saying that "well there are other achievements that reference songs we aren't getting", yes you're right - but only partially. Every achievement that involves a specific song is labeled by a lyrical reference from that song.

Plus, let's face it, The End is a logical closer that includes fun parts on every instrument. Giles Martin already said that they chose songs based on "fun to play" versus popularity. And the final lyrics in The End basically sum up the entire message of The Beatles and their music.

So because you think it's The End, it definitely has to be The End, and whoever else thinks it's a different song is deemed wrong and in denial? It has just a good chance for A Day in the Life as it is The End.

I honestly think it should be the either the last song they performed or maybe Let it Be, one of the most remembered songs. :D

[Killercroissants]

It looks like this became the official "what do you think the final song will be?" thread.

It's been a while, but since when are we saying it's anything outside of the four given choices: Help!, Hey Jude, Flying, or Yesterday?

I mean, people are saying Strawberry Fields Forever and Let it Be, but I thought we pretty much established it was going to be one of those four...I guess I've been gone longer than I thought! LOL :D

[LibertineStripes]

My guess is "Hey Jude".
