RB: Blitz Prediction Thread-- Remaining Unannounced Songs

[Verreaux]

While I don't expect any Muse on Blitz at this point (seeing as we've seen mostly modern stuff revealed among other things), if we're to believe that SBH and Uprising might be too expensive to license then the next safest bets would probably be Time is Running Out or Starlight. Time is Running Out was the band's breakthrough hit stateside and Starlight was arguably the band's most popular pre-Resistance era (or pre-Twilight) hit, however as of today both likely rank below SBH and Uprising in mainstream recognition by the masses. Despite this, this may mean that they might be slightly easier to license....but who knows! I'd just be happy that my favorite band finally returns to the platform after so long.

Anyways, I'm thinking that the last 10 songs are probably gonna be a majority ofpre-80's songs to even out the rest of the revealed setlist so I'll be guessing these:

King Crimson - 21st Century Schizoid Man
The Turtles - Happy Together
Creedence Clearwater Revival - Commotion
Santana - Oye Como Va
Stevie Wonder - As
Three Dog Night - An Old Fashioned Love Song
Men at Work - Who Can It Be Now?
Everclear - Father of Mine
Coldplay - Violet Hill
Young the Giant - My Body

Most of my picks are mainly assuming most of them are licensing holdovers from previous and relatively recent DLC. King Crimson and the Turtles are GH repeats, so I'd assume they can possibly appear. Three Dog Night and Young the Giant are absolute shots in the dark, but yeah.

Also, the Coldplay track can also be switched to either Paradise or Charlie Brown depending on whether HMX went back to Coldplay to license Paradise due to its mainstream popularity that was only starting to rise back when the first pack came out or Charlie Brown to showcase their latest (excluding Princess of China) single kind of like what AAR seems to be doing.

Charlie Brown is also ridiculously more playable than Paradise.

[Pankrazzo]

My only prediction is that they'll include the latest Linkin Park single to plug their new album. This would make Blitz a lot more attractive to casuals in my opinion, and labels love plugging new releases.

[RockBandRocker]

I have a feeling that "I Ran (So Far Away)" by A Flock Of Seagulls might be one of the remaining tracks.

Seems like Blitz would be a great venue in which to bring the song to the platform.

[Dangimarocker]

Alright, going through my music library and by what we already know the setlist looks like, I predict the following 10 songs.

1. "Supermassive Black Hole" - Muse
2. "Charlie Brown" - Coldplay
3. "Somebody That I Used To Know" - Gotye
4. "Harder To Breathe" - Maroon 5
5. "When It's Over" - Loverboy
6. "Breaking The Habit" - Linkin Park
7. "Somebody Told Me" - The Killers
8. "Behind These Hazel Eyes" - Kelly Clarkson
9. "Money For Nothing" - Dire Straits
10. "Sk8er Boi" - Avril Lavigne

If Somebody I used to Know gets on this game, i might have 2nd thoughts about buying it... oh wait there's the 1 lighter hider.. can atleast use that :P

[GNFfhqwhgads]

I'm hoping Mr. Roboto doesn't make it, since that would mean I can't buy it.

[RockBandRocker]

We won't get any Styx with Dennis DeYoung on vocals (as evidenced by the Styx re-record pack), so there's no need to worry about "Mr. Roboto".

Falco's "Rock Me Amadeus" might also be one of the remaining songs.


(Now I'm just thinking about songs I like to listen to while driving that would be fun to play while "driving" through Rock City)

[mmetzner]

I'm pretty convinced we'll get

Red Hot Chili Peppers - Cant Stop
Huey Lewis & The News - Hip To Be Square

Just because they seemed like such obvious emissions from the DLC packs. I'm echoing the couple of people hoping for Counting Crows - Mr Jones too.

[diieeego]

I think we'll get mostly "obvious" songs from past bands a la Shout by Tears For Fears. For example, if it were Coldplay it'd be "In My Place"
