some more Rock Band blather

[austin_tycho]

If I sing something on Rock Band, I'll then go download the song if I don't already have it. Because why not? Some songs I can't find at all (Pleymo's "New Wave", though I admit I haven't looked very hard; it's French rap and I just mumbled my way through it) and some I don't really warm up to, like "Welcome to the Neighborhood" (the Libyans) and "Rockaway Beach" (the Ramones).

Some I have a split reaction to. I have always hated the song "Man in the Box" by Alice in Chains but that was just a fucking terrifically fun song to sing. It's been competing for space in my head with "Sorrow" by Bad Religion for the last several days; I woke up with both of them in my head this morning. "Sorrow" was a great song to sing. I love how it starts off sounding like a Police song, then veers off and becomes something completely different. Who are those guys? *trots off to Wikipedia* It's a little embarrasing to be introduced to bands via a video game, but I think I want to go find the cd that song's on and give it a listen.

But that goes against our established M.O. of hating each other's stuff! I suppose I can make an exception this once. Just don't play me that 21st Century Digital Boy song; I hate that one.

No worries. It's an ok song, but they have much better stuff.
