Hey, I just met you, and this is crazy, but here's a bunch of DLC info a few days early on account of the holiday this week, so call me, maybe?

[bandaddy]

Oh, the call me maybe prediction wins. Blah for me.

Kinda light this week on the heels of last weeks awesomeness, but it was a short week, so ya, to be expected.

[SheSaidSheSaid]

And I'm guessing this was Kenny Loggins' original week, because only 2 songs? Meh.

[Mileycyrussoulja]

You have GOT to be kidding me.

You have GOT to be kidding me.

That's funny. MileyCyrus calling out Carly Rae week. lol.

Add the songs to the "so overplayed they are grating" list.

Dude, DO YOU REALLY WANT TO GO THERE? I came up with this name when I was 9. I've asked mods to change my name but they said they can't or else it'll mess up my RB3 online stuff and screw up my profile. I f*cking hate it when people make fun of this name. My music tastes are COMPLETELY DIFFERENT now.

Dude, DO YOU REALLY WANT TO GO THERE? I came up with this name when I was 9.

So you're...14 now?

[Mileycyrussoulja]

So you're...14 now?

Yeah. I hate this username to death.

My only complaint about his week's announcement is that "Call Me Maybe" wasn't released one week sooner, so that it could be played by bemused relatives at Thanksgiving gatherings all over the land.
