Rock Band to receive 'Spectacular!' Nickelodeon tracks

Sony Pictures Home Entertainment just announced that it plans to use Rock Band to promote the Nickelodeon TV movie, Spectacular!, which airs February 16th.
Two songs from the film -- "Break My Heart" and "Don't Tell Me" -- will be available for 80
/ $.99 each on the Xbox Live Marketplace from February 3rd, and the PSN from February 5th. Come March 31st, the DVD release of Spectacular! will include a redemption code for a free download of the two songs, via the Rock Band music store.
Interestingly enough, this will be the second piece of Nickelodeon-derived Rock Band DLC, following the addition of music from Naked Brothers Band and Miranda Cosgrove. It's like a pre-teen musical invasion.

Remember when Nickelodeon movies(including the TV movies) were awesome?
Yeah, me neither.
MrSpaceCowboy @ Jan 28th 2009 8:55AM
What about Harriet the Spy?
(I guess it did have Rosie O'Donnell..... ewww)

Good Burger?

I do, however, remember when Nickelodeon shows were awesome. Rocko, Doug, Ren and Stimpy, Hey Arnold. The list goes on. I feel bad for the kids of today, though. They have to watch this crap.

Mooooove over Mondo burger!
HippoHero @ Jan 28th 2009 2:39PM
I thought the Spongebob Squarepants movie was good.
Yeah. I said it.
Even the bits with David Hasslehoff.
rodjoh @ Jan 28th 2009 3:09PM
I do remember actually. the 90s.
Rick @ Jan 28th 2009 8:10AM
The busted sewage pipe smell on the freeway drive to work won't seem so bad after this.
MowDownJoe @ Jan 28th 2009 8:11AM
I just threw up in my mouth a little.
Archon @ Jan 28th 2009 8:19AM
BUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
And they want us to pay for those tracks, too?
BUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
At least, the 'Rocker' track was free.
BUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA...
Seroth @ Jan 28th 2009 11:13AM
No, they expect people who actually listen to this stuff to pay for it. Kids play these games, too, you know. Yeah, really, kids play video games. SO WEIRD!
LuiginDaisy @ Jan 28th 2009 11:40AM
I didn't even download "Headphones On" because I don't wanna play that shit when I do freeplay. All I downloaded was the Rush tracks. WHERE IS THE QUEEN DLC?
Archon @ Jan 28th 2009 11:56AM
Seroth. It's like adding Barney The Dinosaur as DLC for GTA IV because 'kids play that game too'. People buying Rock Band don't expect Nickelodeon hits to show up as DLC. They wan't to be rock stars or some sh*t, I don't know.
I can't see that become a bestseller. Barney The Dinosaur for GTA IV would be badass though.
Bakkster @ Jan 28th 2009 12:04PM
I see. So if it's not a song that you would buy, they shouldn't bother putting it out, huh? You are now the end-all be-all of musical taste. Heaven forbid that there is a market for music outside of your specific taste.
Thank God that Harmonix doesn't listen to twits like you.
Also, the Miranda Cosgrove song is pretty good. If you didn't know it was from a Nickelodeon show, I think most people would have simply enjoyed it or not for what it was: a free song.
Mr Khan @ Jan 28th 2009 8:24AM
Oh, and by the way, Jerry. They're real, and they're spectacular
IslandLife @ Jan 28th 2009 12:29PM
Appropriately placed Seinfeld reference +1
Squirtbot @ Jan 28th 2009 8:25AM
When did Rock Band come to the PSP?
I must have missed that update when you guys switched the site to mush everything playstation under one room.
Guess what? I don't have a PS3!
Please make a PSP tab at the top of the screen please, please, please!
Hunter @ Jan 28th 2009 8:26AM
No thanks.
opifex @ Jan 28th 2009 8:27AM
Big tits on the girl in green.. DAMN!
Archon @ Jan 28th 2009 8:41AM
Tits? SOLD!
MrSpaceCowboy @ Jan 28th 2009 8:53AM
Hey! That chick used to be a regular on the telly here in Aussieland. On 'Home and Away' I think.
It's nice to know she's moved onto bigger things.
(hehe boobies!)
Michael T @ Jan 28th 2009 1:36PM
Man, tits or not, her face still looks like the Borg Queen.
Young_Nastyman @ Jan 28th 2009 8:29AM
If crap like this, the naked brothers band, and miranda cosgrove means I get to play the drake and josh theme down the road, It's worth the waste of DLC.
Xanto @ Jan 28th 2009 8:44AM
Funny but you're right though, it's probably the only theme that sounds decent.
McWeen @ Jan 28th 2009 8:41AM
Not everyone's cup of tea but a little diversity in the music line up in the end is good for everyone. Your top picks may be obscure to someone else.
whistlepig @ Jan 28th 2009 8:53AM
im waiting on some teletubbie jams or even better how about doodlebops .oh well dlc is still better then singstars
Dr. @ Jan 28th 2009 8:59AM
Whoa, that kid looks serious. Also, airbrushed.
Psycho300x @ Jan 28th 2009 9:09AM
Please tell me these aren't the only tracks coming out next week.
Kaemon @ Jan 28th 2009 9:56AM
Uhh, No. Not at all.
HMX has put out consistently 6 tracks a week, I doubt this will be any different, in fact, just as my own prediction, I'm guessing a Album, and then this.
I'm 90% sure of it.
Ahmedz @ Jan 28th 2009 9:10AM
coming soon: The Jonas Brothers DLC!
blairseip @ Jan 28th 2009 9:50AM
You know, as much as I want to bust on these tracks, there are a TON of kids who play this game, so this is a good move on MTV's part.
zombiejesus @ Jan 28th 2009 10:09AM
Heres to hoping I get to play Polaris - Hey Sandy on rockband
Boffo the $ock @ Jan 28th 2009 10:39AM
Will I finally get to sing my favorite song in all of forever?
Fast food feels fuzzy
Cause it's made from stuff that's scuzzy
I always thought I was such a nerd
I refused to eat that strange bean curd
I wouldn't eat it, WOW! But it ate you!
Ah eeh ooh, Killer tofu.
Eeyae!
Oooh-ee-ooh, Killer tofu!
macgyver @ Jan 28th 2009 1:40PM
"i need more allowance" if the killer tofu DLC does indeed miraculously someday come out.
VaultICEE @ Jan 28th 2009 7:02PM
You win.
TheKarmaPolice @ Jan 28th 2009 12:08PM
FINALLY!
Jeff @ Jan 29th 2009 12:04PM
You've got to be kidding me! they won't put in "M4 part 2" by The Faunts but they'll put in this bologna? c'mawn!
megapenguinx @ Jan 28th 2009 1:10PM
I was excited because I was misled by the title thinking I'd finally be able to play some songs from Doug....
Banging on a trash can anyone?
Deck @ Jan 28th 2009 3:12PM
Yeah, I have got to say that this is going to be some DLC I am FOR SURE going to pass up!
VaultICEE @ Jan 28th 2009 7:03PM
Come on, Viacom...
If you're going to put up ANYTHING from Nickelodeon, release some cartoon theme pack or something. I don't care if it makes sense, but I'm sure people would buy the Spongebob Theme... even if its like 30 seconds long.
...Or how about we get a Doug song pack?
Ratfoot @ Jan 28th 2009 9:06PM
Poor HMX having Viacom force these terrible tracks down their throats.
