"Action" made famous by Sweet (cover) Link to Song

"Last Train to Clarksville" made famous by the Monkees (cover) Link to Song

"All the Small Things" by Blink 182 Link to Song

I'll probably get the Blink song just because there's guaranteed to be at least one Blink fan amongst our Rock Band friends. I've never heard "Action" before, but it sounds like it might be decent enough to get. I think I'll pass on "Last Train to Clarkesville".

EDIT: Updated video links to the actual gameplay (Expert Guitar) videos.

I don't like that Blink song. Off their greatest hits cd, that is the only song that I don't like.

I'm not the biggest fan, but I remember really liking "Dammit" in high school. Oh well.

They really should have done the "Hey Hey We're the Monkees" song. :laugh:

Dang, I wish they would have released Ballroom Blitz instead of Action.

Ballroom Blitz is on the disk.

Yea, and I know I'm probably a terrible person and all the "The Sweet" purists will think less of me for it, but I'd prefer the cover version of "Ballroom Blitz" they had in Wayne's World. If for no other reason then I heard it there first so it's the "normal" version of it for me.

Actually, I like Nuclear Assault's version myself.

Unless that's the version that is in Wayne's World, I'm not familiar with it. Wow, there are a lot of covers of Ballroom Blitz.

well I am a sucker and got them all even though I hate blink.

Last Train to Clarksville - best cover in the game. It is great. The guitar is alot harder than I thought it would be but also really fun.

Action - This is a good cover. I like this singers voice better than the original. The guitar chart is good. Easier than Last Train I think but for some reason it is in a higher tier.

All the small things - I hate the band and song. Guitar is boring. I almost FC'd it on my first try. Drums sound like they might be fun.

I only tried guitar on all of these real quick before work.

I updated the links in the original post so that they're actual gameplay videos from YouTube.

Holy crap, I have to go download "Action" right now. Despite the huge playlist, there have only been about 5-6 songs (Pleasure (Pleasure), Blitzkrieg Bop, Juke Box Hero, etc.) that I really unabashedly enjoy singing in front of other people. Action is definitely going on that list, much to the chagrin of everyone else, I'm sure. :p
