    The Stroke:

    Guitar: About what you'd expect. The best Pro pick of the bunch, all things considered, so good job.
    Drums: Pretty simple throughout, but the marching beat during the interlude is a nice break.
    Pro Keys: You only play some harpsichord during the chorus and synth horns during the interlude. I got a very low score with my FC.
    Vocals: Come on. You know how the vocals play on this. Don't be like that.

    I Ran (So Far Away)

    Guitar: With exception to the echo chords, which are gone now, this is just as good as it was in GH80s.
    Pro Drums: Simplistic even with the aforementioned blue tom roll.
    Pro Keys: Skyp1e, you were wrong! This track actually has the most playing of the three, and has some ridiculously shaped chords for a tier 0 song.
    Vocals: You know how the vocals work here too.

    Overall, The Stroke and I Ran were tracks that I always wanted to see in this franchise no matter how mediocre they may have been to play, and I Ran comes close to essential with how "full-band"y it is. So aside from the completely mucked up scheduling, this week was pretty good.

    More 80s one-hit wonders, please. Psuedo Echo - Funkytown next? There's one I really want.

    Just played them. What they lack in difficulty they more than make up for in attitude. You can't help but tap your foot and nod your head to these tunes. Great, great week.

    I'd imagine the Flock of Seagulls song to be the best on keys this week. Don't really think key extravaganza with Billy.

    Yeah, the niche crowds usually have to search the RBN for that kind of thing. However did you look into Amaranth by Nightwish? That looked like it had some great keys.
