*Rock Band Mog Request 2 - accepting requests till sept.31, 2009*
Hey everyone...it's time for another ROCK BAND MOG REQUEST (cue wicked guitar solo a la' Wayne's World).
Incase you missed the first one, the point is that if you love Rock Band, you want more than anything to get your favorite songs in the game (and lesser known bands some deserving exposure). And with Mog's ever growing power of musical...ahem...persuasion, we can band together to make it happen.
However, we have to be smart about it - thus when posting comments follow these 3 simple rules:
A) You can only request 2 songs (this seems harsh, but one thing most Rock Band lovers fail to exhibit is restraint. So pick well!)
B) One of the two songs must be from an existing band in the game, the other can be a new band.
C) You must provide easy access to a preview of the song. This can be a youtube link, or a link to the song on your mog page, but we must be able to listen to it FOR FREE (no rhapsody links)
*LAST REQUEST WINNERS*
these two songs were the winners of the last request round and are being presented to Harmonix as we speak.
new band: *I believe in a thing called love - the Darkness* - incredible vocals, incredible guitar solos, incredible song
old band: *Width of a Circle (santa monica '72 version) - David Bowie* - and instrument orgy...pure heaven to play on everything.
Ok! Get commenting!!!!
notes: Remember, be smart with your requests. Songs missing clear vocals/bass/guitar/drums are less likely to be considered by Harmonix. Songs that contain offensive lyrics or subject matters also less likely to be considered. The less obscure a band, the less a chance to get it in (but still try ;) ) Sorry, but don't even request bands with shaky licensing track records (Beatles, Zepplin, Metallica). The winners are chosen by myself and an elite panel of top moggers. no purchase necessary.

wow, this is like a dream come true post for me. Love the game and have always wanted to be able to have a chance to pick out a song or two to be in the game. I used to post songs on the Guitar Hero boards and was rather happy to see some of the music I suggested used in the game. Now that I have said too much, here are my two songs.
New Band -
NOFX - The Decline
One of the most epic punk songs of all time in my eyes. It clocks in at around 18:20 and has something for everyone when it comes to rock band. I thought playing this as a final song would be so cool, mostly because of how the song switches up tempo over and over. The youtube video is broken up into three parts, here they are.
as for an existing band, gotta go with the Strokes. I feel they have a sound that is great, and you can not help but air guitar when one of their songs come on. My pick would be Someday

Thanks Rawk! tell your friends to post..the more worthy submissions we get the more likely we are to submit more than just two requests. Sweet submissions!
Radiohead Paranoid Android
and Weezer El Scorcho
wow, loving both of your ideas pinkerton. I do say there is not a weezer song that I would not want to play on rock band.
Pinkerton...you will be pleased. El Scorcho is actually a downloadable song for rockband. We play it at pretty much every rockband party....it even keeps the line "God damn you half japanese girls" - gotta love uncensored Weezer awesomness. And good choice on Radiohead tunes. I know ALOT of people, myself included, that need a hell of a lot more than just Creep in our rhythm games.
might want to add in anyone can play guitar, another one that would be awesome to play
I agree with Pinkerton, there is definitely a lack of good radiohead in the game. My suggestion would be 2 songs that are popular and yet still never seem to get old.
1) Radiohead Paranoid Android
The PERFECT song for this game, truley epic song that changes a lot. This one is quite difficult as well.
2) Radiohead - KArma Police
This is the anthem, more acoustic, still very fun to play.
