Guitar Hero has become somewhat of a phenomenon recently. It has captivated gamers and non-gamers alike and made quite a cultural impact. I mean, South Park did an episode devoted to it. But everytime a new Guitar Hero comes out, there are great songs included yet people complain about the absence of others. Thus forming a wishlist. So, I have taken it upon myself to create my own based upon not only my musical preference but songs that would be a perfect fit for any Guitar Hero (or Rock Band) game. So here it is, my top 10 most wanted songs for the next Guitar Hero. No Stairway taken into account.

#10- Icky Thump by The White Stripes (Probably one of the best rock songs to come out in a while)
#9- Can't Stop by The Red Hot Chili Peppers (Eh...it's got a good beat.)
#8- Smells Like Teen Spirit by Nirvana (Love 'em or hate 'em, this has to be in one of these games)
#7- Party Hard by Andrew W.K. (GH needs a song to just rock out and have fun with) or What Would Brian Boitano Do? by DVDA (If Rock Band can have Timmy, Guitar Hero should have Brian.)
#6- Joker and the Thief by Wolfmother (Although you can rock this one on Rock Band, it's a better fit on Guitar Hero)
#5- Up Around the Bend by Creedence Clearwater Revival (For that really good oldie song...)
#4- Where the River Flows by Collective Soul ( A personal favorite of mine)
#3- Enter Sandman by Metallica (Metal!)
#2- Smooth Criminal by Alien Ant Farm (Another personal favorite of mine but even though it's a cover of a MJ song, this is a great cover that rocks and has a neat solo)

And #1 we have a 3-way tie Thunderstruck by AC/DC, You Shook Me All Night Long by AC/DC, and Eruption by Van Halen

There you go. My list. I'm open to any edits, comments, criticisms, as I realize that choosing 10 songs really limits the range of good songs. But let me know.

P.S. I planned on posting this earlier but I used a "forbidden" word when describing "Up Around the Bend so I changed it to "oldie". I'll give you a hint. It rhymes with "pass sick".

Today is my two year anniversary at TV.com. Yeah, I'm shocked too. But right over there ------>
says that it's true. Man, has time flown by.

After last night's amazing episode "Canada on Strike", I decided to make a few subs for the episode. Well, I logged in today to notice that those subs have bumped me up to the next level, level 17. Yes, I'm a crazy neighbor now maybe not with quite the eccentricity of Kramer. However, it's good to be movin' on up. Hooray me.

But in even greater news, I did a few more subs today for South Park contributing to the newest episode. Just the usual quotes and stuff that strike me funny. Yet, I noticed while scrolling down something amazing. I saw my name in the top contributor box for South Park! This made me quite happy as it was one of my goals on this site (as evidenced by my last blog). Double Hooray for me!

Finally, if I ever decide to make another conceited, self-congratulatory blog like this again, I'll give you some "theoretical dollars" and maybe a coupon to Bennigan's. Once again, I'd like to apologize for anyone who fell for my April Fool's joke. I have not left and am glad to be here.

Have a good one.
