@Grey

Even without A7X, Take On Me and Tubthumping are some great tracks. Great update this week.

"Welcome to the Family" of "Unholy Confessions". "Take On Me" when "I Alone" begin "Tubthumping" as the "Lightning Crashes".

That was super lame. If it doesn't make any sense, don't try.

Surprised "Take On Me" wasn't on the disc. "Tubthumping", one of the best one-hit-wonder songs of the 90's. "I Alone" great nostalgic song.

Excuse me sir but that entire Chumbawamba album was pure gold.

@Unreal Armos You mean to tell me that they made more than one song?

Thumbs up to Harmonix for keeping the genre alive!

'Take on Me"??????

Aaaaaw. I don't want a new Rock Band game, but these songs are making it so tempting

@XaiaX The problem isn't the price. Rock Band games are just really time consuming and I hoave alot of other stuff to play and not enough time to play them.

Wow, If I had bought RB3, I'd buy the whole update next week. Love the Avenged Sevenfold and Live songs, and Chumbawumba and A-Ha are great party songs

$19.99, you hear that Joystiq. You should update the info in the right column of every RB3 post.

Glad I picked up RB3 the other week. Great tracks, will probably get all of them. Haven't heard Tubthumping since I was a kid :D

Don't forget the new Super Meat Boy track on the RBN!

... I didn't quite believe that Harmonix was going to keep up the DLC train after MTV sold them off.... but I feel like things are actually BETTER now. A good mix of genres every week, including older songs that aren't tied to promos for bands' new records.... Mostly everyone gets something.

Chumbawamba has much better songs than Tubthumping. It's too bad this is the only one people really know. Very, very sad.

I absolutely love Chumbawamba. I am honestly sad, and upset, at myself for losing track of them for over 11 years. I picked up Tubthumper when it released and it instantly became one my top five albums at the time. (1. Savage Garden - Savage Garden, 2. No Doubt - Tragic Kingdom, 3. Faith No More - Angel Dust, 4. Seal - Seal [1994]) I simply never bought another one of their albums until Readymades a couple of years ago and it is also awesome.

I might consider Tubthumping to be the "worst" track on the album. It may be the most catchy but nowhere near the best. The rest of that album is so brilliant that it remains one of my top 10 all time albums. It makes the rounds on iTunes and my iPod for a solid day every month.

My favorite track has to be The Good Ship Lifestyle and my favorite "section" of the entire album is the last 47 seconds of Outsider. I love how they made little 20-60 second "side songs" at the beginning and ends of actual songs.
