Why does L:RB love The Cars so much?

[davidshek]

Not the movie, the band. Invariably, almost every time I play a Mystery Setlist, one of my The Cars DLC songs will pop up. And when I'm doing the Create a Setlists and hit the "Random Song" selection, it picks...THE CARS! I don't even have all 9 songs off the album either, I think I have 6 or 7.

Before you ask, no, I don't have like 10 DLC, I have around 400 or so. I just don't understand why it keeps picking that particular band so much. I'm seriously about to delete all those songs off my 360 just so it can't pick them anymore. And it's not even just that, but if it's not The Cars, it picks other really easy (Tier 1 or 2) songs.

Anybody else see this happening?

Okay, you have 400 DLC. But how much is compatible with Lego: Rock Band? A big chunk of The Cars is. Foo Fighters are also well-represented, so if you have those two albums, they'll make up a disproportionate amount of your Lego setlist.

I have the whole album and only one song from that album has ever showed up in my mystery setlists. Anyways, I don't think any of the songs on that album wouldn't pass the filter. Great album b.t.w. at least to listen to. The drums I hear suck but the guitar is very good for being mostly lower tier songs, and I'm sure the vocal tracks are superb.

I have the No Doubt album and it shows up lots.

Lots and lots of them are compatible with L:RB, several hundred at least last time I scrolled through the list in L:RB. This isn't a shortage of choices issue.

My copy really loves Roy Orbison. Then again all the songs from the pack made it through. Still doesn't explain the fact that i had 2 of songs in the Rock Marathon setlist though!

I get a ton of The Cars too and and I'm only missing maybe 30 DLC songs. L:RB loves The Cars.

I have yet to get a Cars song in a random setlist. You lucky dogs.....

[Mr Jonnyears]

I get way The Cars all the time, as well. Also, my one seems to LOVE Swing, Swing by The All-American Rejects. Every time I do a mystery setlist, that song seems to come up... I've got around 500 songs downloaded which makes it so weird.

My suspicion is that it has to do with the relatively low difficulty of the album.

Either that or just a statistical anomaly.
