    GTA tends to do rerecords on songs a lot. Not because they can't get the original songs, but sometimes the artists throw in references to their fictitious universe. It's really fascinating the level of detail in those games.

    What an excellent week! I'd say that even if I Ran was the only song, but the Billy Squier songs really add the icing on the cake. Can't wait for Tuesday!

    Great week for me - I've wanted Billy Squier in RB for years (regular songs - not the Christmas one). Flock of Seagulls is fun too.

    From Billy - I'd love to see Emotions in Motion - Freddie Mercury does vocals on that with him. :D

    I know GTA4 did this, but I don't think any of the songs in Vice City have such direct references to the game (aside from Lovefist, obviously). And I had not heard before that any of the songs on the game were re-records. I Ran has a couple different edits that came out when the song came out, it is possible that Vice City used one of those.
