Is it music studio? Is it real time song sync from an MP3 player? Is it real guitar support? Sue all that would help, but no.
It's uncensored music, I mean bite the bullet and accept an "M" rating for "strong lyrics", add an option to censor the songs as a parental control. Boom, everyone's happy, and we finally get to have uncensored songs.
Now I know this issue has been discussed to death, but after playing RB2 I felt I needed to say something, I mean really... Who else has played "Down With The Sickness"? They left the middle part in (about his mom) AND censored it? WHAT?!? You might as will put in the "F*** Song" by Limp Bizkit and censor it, or how about some nice censored Insane Clown Posse? It makes just about as much sense.

hmm. considering a large chunk of the players that buy GH and RB are NOT annoying little kids that want to curse every other word like it's cool, but rather the parent's of those kids, or people that buy it to play with their family, i would say doing this would alienate a large chunk of their buying demographic they do not want to risk. This is why MANY MANY movies have switched to being primarily PG-13 instead of R, they found MANY MANY more people will see the movie if they stick with PG-13.
and parental controls would require them to include 2 versions of the song. double work/ twice the licensing fees/negotiations/ etc. i don't think this is impossible, but i still think the average "mom" consumer would pass over a "M" rated game in favor of a "T" rated game.

Actually the trend recently especially for comedies are R ratings, there have been a number of articles on it. Studios have been more willing to dorated R comedies now because they cost less to make, and therefore the lower profit equals out, but there has been a definite shift

I don't think I was clear in my meaning behind this post, yes it is to show that by adding uncensored songs people will flock to the game, which I believe they will as it will then appeal to a more core audience, family gamers have their console, it's called the Wii (I love the Wii by the way lol Fatal Frame IV FTW!)
My meaning is this: If you're gonna censor songs to the degree that they are then it's better to just leave them out, if a song is made up of a series of blank spaces as opposed to words then you've gone too far. Otherwise just uncensor them and leave them in.

NO
this is a horrible idea.
I believe in gameplay, if you want to here the curse words so bad, just play the MP3 of the song over you actually playing it

Lets start this out with, I am a Bigger Disturbed fan than you.
and yes, I played DWTS, I love the song, no, they didn't take out the part with his mom. Get it right.
Those of us who are mature, realize, that, no we don't need the curse words. When I do vocals, I sing them because of habit, but no, they are not necessary, back to DWTS...
(Can you feel that?)
(Oh ****)
Ooh ah ah ah ah!
Ooh ah ah ah ah!
Drowning deep in my sea of loathing
Broken your servant I kneel
(Will you give in to me?)
It seems what's left of my human side
Is slowly changing ... in me
(Will you give in to me?)
Looking at my own reflection
When suddenly it changes
Violently it changes
Oh no, There is no turning back now
You've woken up the demon ... in me
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
Open up your hate, and let it flow into me
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
You mother get up
Come on get down with the sickness
You ****** get up
Come on get down with the sickness
Madness is the gift, that has been given to me
I can see inside you, the sickness is rising
Don't try to deny what you feel
(Will you give in to me?)
It seems that all that was good has died
And is decaying in me
(Will you give in to me?)
It seems you're having some trouble
In dealing with these changes
Living with these changes
Oh no, the world is a scary place
Now that you've woken up the demon ... in me
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
Open up your hate, and let it flow into me
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
You mother get up
Come on get down with the sickness
You ****** get up
Come on get down with the sickness
Madness is the gift, that has been given to me
And when I dream
And when I dream
And when I dream
And when I dream!!!!
No mommy, don't do it again
Don't do it again
I'll be a good boy
I'll be a good boy, I promise
No mommy don't hit me Oh-oohh
Why did you have to hit me like that mommy?
Don't do it! You're hurting me Oh-oohh!
Why did you have to be such a *****?
Why don't you,
Why don't you **** off and die?
Why can't you just **** off and die?
Why can't you just leave here and die?
Never stick your hand in my face again *****
**** YOU!!!
I don't need this ****
You stupid sadistic abusive ******* *****
Would you like to see how it feels mommy?
Here it comes, get ready to die!
Ooh ah ah ah ah!
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
Open up your hate, and let it flow into me
Get up, come on get down with the sickness
You mother get up
Come on get down with the sickness
You ****** get up
Come on get down with the sickness
Mad-ness has now come over me
Thats really not that bad.... be realistic.
ADD: there are 526 words there.... 12 curses... thats 2.28% of the song is censored...

The sheer horror confounds me.
