The following would make an excellent "Counting Crows Pack 1" for Rock Band add-ons...

"Angels of the Silences"
"Daylight Fading"
"Mr. Jones"
"A Murder of One"

My reasoning is that first of all - they're all really great songs, both harmonically and melodically. Secondly, they do contain a decent amount of technical work when it comes to all the different instruments involved. The blending of the guitars, drums, bass, and vocals works awesome together in almost all of the Counting Crows' music - especially their stuff from the early and mid 90s. The guitar parts are entertainingly involving, and the drum beats are sometimes in a different off-style, which makes it all so much fun. Then when it comes to Adam Duritz's vocals on the songs - everything is so fun to sing, and they are all such awesome songs to sing aloud.

If Rock Band would add all of these Counting Crows songs to its repertoire, I would be one very, very happy camper! =)

The Counting Crows should be in the game period. "A Long December" would be a great, slower tempo, rock song to play.

"A Long December" would be great... maybe it's been too long since I've heard it haha. But isn't most of that song piano? I can't really recall the guitar part to it. But yes, I believe that Adam and the gang wouldn't be opposed to having their music featured in this freaking awesome game!!

I think that off of their first two albums, August and Everything After, and Recovering the Satellites, there isn't a single bad song whatsoever. The whole album is just solid, and they should all be mainstream hits. It's only when people buy the albums themselves that they discover just how great the rest of the Counting Crows' music is!
