This is not what Harmonix does. If you are looking for a game that just picks the songs based on popularity, maybe you should go with Guitar Hero. Harmonix tends to pick songs that are more enjoyable to play, rather than just picking the most well known songs.

Yeah, that Jimmy Hendrix track pack was boring as hell.

Brown Eyed Girl is Van Morrison. Roy Orbison is INMISTAKABLE!

People on Something Awful discovered some upcoming Battle of the Bands events on the Rock Band website for Lenny Kravitz and Steve Miller Band over the next couple weeks, indicating an emphasis on solo artists this month. I wouldn't be shocked to see SRV round out this month's DLC offerings.

This is great selection in my opinion. 2 well known songs, and the others are great gems that will be new to alot of people.

In Dreams... incredibly creepy for anyone who's seen Blue Velvet.

I was doing the very same! Now all we need is 'Magic Carpet Ride' for a ST:FC themed challenge!

This is great. I love how they're really pushing out the boundaries of the music collection for the game. I just really hope this paves the way for some Elvis in RB3.

Still NO Queen in RB, though, for shame. They've sold 300-million albums worldwide, released eighteen number one albums, eighteen number one singles, and ten number one DVDs, but they're not in the game? FOR SHAME!

Yay!
Shame my friend's won't download any of these tracks, it would give me something to actually sing. (other than Tangled up in Blue)

Roy Orbison is the master. He has the greatest vocal range in rock.

Terrible start to the new year. Where's Katy Perry?

Orbison is a welcome change of pace for RB DLC. Hope to see even more genre variety in the future.

Wow, I must say I am very excited to see Roy Orbison coming out to Rock Band..... but I know what you're thinking, you're thinking "man, this old guy comes on here to tell us how influential Roy Orbison is....bla bla bla...".
Well, actually I'm only semi-old.... 31 to be exact....
Honeslty, Roy Orbison really was a huge influence on music
(check out reverbnation.com/royorbison and look at some of the quotes)
I bought this DLC the week it came out and have been playing it nonstop. It's not that expensive, and you get to learn a few more songs of Roy's that are just as good as his top two.
All in all, I'm glad Harmonix made the move to Roy Orbison. He was a classy guy that helped introduce the world to rock and roll in the 50s (with Elvis, Buddy Holly, etc.)
I recommend this to everyone who wants to learn a little more about the real roots of Rock and Roll.
