Okay, it wouldn't be very challenging for anyone except the vocalist, but still.. It'd be fun, methinks. Take this song, for instance:

James Brown - "Living In America"
<object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/oHqUipinDyw"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/oHqUipinDyw" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"></embed></object>

Or as an alternative, this version:

Weird Al - "Living With A Hernia"
<object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/GpyoxEYa5mE"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/GpyoxEYa5mE" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"></embed></object>

While we're on the subject... I really think Weird Al should be in the game, in one way or another. Can you say DLC, please?

Weird al rules. I like a lot of his parodies better than the originals. Including this one.

James brown is pretty good. Not a big fan, but I respect him.

it would be good to include james brown or some other classic R&B back when it wasnt dominated by by wannabes and sellouts

James Brown is awesome and I'm thrilled that we have a few of his songs in the game though I'd love to see more. I think it would be awesome to have "Coldblooded" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lblH10lLkD8), "Get Up Offa That Thing" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eDwOFThiNnA), "Give It Up or Turnit a Loose" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2WZ0Xg5U8fU), "I Can't Stand It" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_UdtmOsdggo), and "The Payback" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IST6qRfVqwY) in the game among the tons of other fantastic cuts.
