I'll start out with the real problems:
I downloaded "this ones for the girls" and "I told you so"
Both songs from the country pack, but I bought them separately when they came out. The website says their family friendly, but they don't show up in LRB

Now for my problem:
How is "don't stop believing" not family friendly? In my house "suddenly I see" is a lot worse.

"Don't Stop Believin'" mentions alcohol ("a smell of wine and cheap perfume"). That seems to be an automatic no-no for the "family friendly" seal.

Sorry, I just looked and I told you so is not family friendly( I'm pretty sure it was at one time...) but this ones for the girls still is family friendly.

I've also noticed the "family friendly" rating does seem to be something of a moving target. Back when Lego Rock Band first came out, Queen's "Fat-Bottomed Girls" was playable in the game. That was good for a laugh.

"Fat Bottomed Girls" is still playable. The ratings for the Queen songs were discovered before the game came out, so it's not a glitch or anything.

I posted my theory (http://www.rockband.com/forums/showthread.php?p=3787175#post3787175) for the country songs. The short version is that the Country Track Pack came out at a weird time and all the songs slipped through the cracks.

A lot of the ratings on the site aren't accurate (the most infamous example is the Stevie Ray Vaughan instrumentals listed as "Supervision Recommended"). If you're looking for family-friendly (according to the game) songs you can actually play in Lego, you're better off using the in-game store or the Xbox 360 music store app.
