As a huge music fan and gamer, i play a lot of the Rock Band series, and to a lesser extent, Guitar Hero/DJ Hero/DDR/Gitaroo Man/Parappa/Etc. So i figured i'd do a day by day look into each song in the upcoming Rock Band 3! So let's cut the formalities and get straight to the first song, 20th Century Boy by T.Rex! 
 
Song: 20th Century Boy 
Artist: T. Rex 
Year: 1973 
Tiering: 4/4/3/5/5 (Guitar/Bass/Drums/Keys/Vocals) 
 Other Music Games: Guitar Hero 5 
 
Well it may one of the more boring songs in the set, as far as charting is concerned, 20th Century Boy is easily one of the most famous songs by glam band T. Rex. Even if the riff is repetitive, its badass, and very famous, and has a cool solo as you exit the song, though it will be interesting to see how long it goes on for in comparison to GH5 (HMX tends to end songs quicker on fade-out tracks then GH).  Bass is a bit more exciting than usual, but nothing noteworthy. Drums are pretty straightforward, and nothing seems like to catch anyone off guard. I don't notice much of any keyboard presence in the song, but it should be interesting to see what Harmonix has unearthed all of the other tracks that i can't seem to hear, though it is most likely the same guitar riff, just played on keys/some other instrument. Vocals are noticeable, in that it's one of the song with very noticable vocal harmonies, one of the big-toted features in the game, and one of the very few with a male/female vocal harmony. Easily vocals will be a stand-out on the track. The song itself sounds right off of any of the 70's best glam albums, next to Bowie or Glitter. Not a huge stand-out, but not wasted space either
