Life Wasted - Pearl Jam : I like that they put in new music by Pearl Jam. I don't really know why, but something about older Pearl Jam songs that get radio play just grate my ears. I actually like this song. Thumbs up.

Rock and Roll Hootie Coo - Rick Derringer : HELL YEAH.

Dead! - My Chemical Romance : Meh. I'm not a big MCR fan, although I did really like I'm Not Okay (I Promise) and I think that Black Parade sounds a lot like something Queen would do. This song works well. It sounds like the same guitar play as Infected (my favorite song in Guitar Hero) and Surrender (my least favorite song in Guitar Hero II). Judgment pending.

Hush - Deep Purple : The third song in my holy trinity of awesome Deep Purple songs. Smoke On The Water is obviously # 1 and Highway Star is # 2. This is A great song, but I would have rather had Highway Star. Still, it's great to have more Deep Purple. Now if they can just put in Hitch a Ride by Boston, we'll be in business.

Billion Dollar Baby - Alice Cooper : This is not School's Out For Summer. Oh, well. I'll stop crying now. It's a decent song. Better than the MCR song. Better than a good chunk of Guitar Hero II songs. I just really wanted to play School's Out For Summer. Or No More Mister Nice Guy. Or even I'm Eighteen. *sigh.* Oh, Well, it could be worse: At least the Aerosmith song isn't I Don't Want To Miss A Thing and the Van Halen song isn't Pretty Woman.

Here's to hoping My Sharona or some version of Johhny B. Goode is in this version of Guitar Hero II. What five songs do you want in this game?

[EDIT] Salvation - Rancid : Just finished watched the vid. Seems like a cool song consistant with the quality of Guitar Hero II. Take from that what you will.
