Show tunes: Wii Music licensed tracks revealed

Finally! A rhythm game track list built exclusively for grown folks: 60s pop? Check! Motown hits? You betcha! Show tunes? Groovy! Inspirational motion picture themes? Far out! George Michael? Oh hells yeah!

While Nintendo has yet to release the complete track list for Wii Music, expected to feature some 50 tunes, Variety simply popped open the game manual and plucked out a list of credited, licensed music. (All 14 tracks are listed after the break.) It might not "rock," but hey, props to Nintendo for almost getting a Beatles song in the game -- John Lennon's ode to Yoko is close enough, right?
