Weird Al - Pick a three pack

[Headcase]

Songs I'd love in RB are:
- Franks 2000" TV
- I Remember Larry (great unison bonuses)
- Genius in France (pretty close style parody, but would be a lot of fun probably)
- Stop Forwarding that Crap to me (for vocals mostly)

Anything else is welcomed. I chose When I was Your Age in the poll.

It's too bad that "Albuquerque" clocks in just over 10 minutes. It's a hilarious song for vocalists and would be a lot of fun if a clever RBNer could figure out how to squeeze it into the allotted time.

"Nature Trail To Hell" and "Germs" would be excellent, but IMO "Your Horoscope for Today" would be excellent-er!

That too. Haha, it's good to know if TAG can land Al that we'll have another batch of songs potentially queued up. It may be a good bargaining chip if they can show that the first pack will be well recieved and future packs are already highly anticipated.

I voted for "Germs" in the long run. The other three are really good as well so it's not like it was an easy decision. I just like the hardcore NiN style mixed with Al's vocals and comedic tone.

That said, I will still buy any (and all) original Weird Al songs that are brought to the RB library. And look forward to tracking this project.

I say CNR and Nature Trail to Hell to round out a three pack out of those songs. Very cool to see Weird Al on board.

HOW DARE YOU POST HERE!?

Also those were my choices as well. Just couldn't see myself playing the other two more than once or twice.

Oh come on, I didn't think my responses were that harsh. You can't deny that people have a fairly weak interest in the songs provided (ignoring NTtH, since that one would actually be fun), so why not give us more options?

I am legitimately surprised that anyone would think CNR would be at all fun to play on Rock Band.

CNR would be a lot more fun than Germs.
And I listened to a few on that list you posted in your first post, and I loved Virus Alert.

C'mon, TAG, tell us why you are choosing some of the WORST Weird Al originals when there are other from the SAME ALBUMS that people obviously want more.

Actual thoughts I had:

"Hey... atalkingfish is back.

Yup... he's definitely back. In the most positive thread we have had in these forums in MONTHS... a fight has broken out. True evidence of the return of atalkingfish..."

Seriously? We're complaining about THEORETICAL song choices now?...

You shouldn't be, as it has the same number of votes as NtTH as of this posting.

People have "weak interest" in the songs provided (other than the song you want)... except that people have voted just as much for anothers ong as the one you want, and a second one trails the one you want by just a few votes.

Welcome back.

Yeah, glad to see another celebrity return
Welcome back, ATF! ^_^

i hope people realize that our ideal choices were explained why they wouldn't happen, and that the two most popular from this poll still are not guaranteed to be in the mystical weird al pack, and that a weird al pack isn't guaranteed yet either...

Actually the longer the song goes on the less you notice that it's different at all. When I say slightly I mean only sliiiightly. I just mean it'll be a little bit faster and a little bit shorter, so players will probably be about the same level of exhausted at the end of the ten minutes as you would have been at the end of 12 minutes. I'm not suggesting this because I think it's funny, I'm suggesting it because I think it'd work.

It wouldn't work, at least not to me. I can tell the song is in a different key and the vocals have been slightly chipmunk'ed, and that would irk me while I'm playing.

There are some slow parts of the song that they could probably be cut out. Having an abridged version would definitely be better than not having it at all.
