Pretty self explainable. Post your choices here!
Edit- Like Kush has said, please give reasons to why you think your choice should be in Rock Band.

"Karmum said:How about all of Radiohead's catalogue? This rapes at least 90 percent of the songs featured in both Rock Band 1 & 2. They can get Snoop Dogg in, but not Radiohead?"Karma Police by Radiohead. Just do it."How about the whole fucking album of "OK Computer" for that matter? That has been an omission that has been hard to forgive each passing week from Harmonix."

"RHCPfan24 said:Exactly. I want ALL of it, because ALL of it is amazing. OK Computer, The Bends, In Rainbows, Kid A, and Pablo Honey are the top albums in order from me. Amnesiac and Hail to the Thief are also great, too."Karmum said:How about all of Radiohead's catalogue? This rapes at least 90 percent of the songs featured in both Rock Band 1 & 2.

"Every single Genesis song.Starting in 1970."Does that include After the Ordeal? Because you've read my mind, and therefore cannot say that one.
How about Punky's Whips, fans of Zappa know why this would be the best song the play regardless of instrument.
EDIT: And I would have loved to see "His Last Voyage" by Gentle Giant, proggy goodness. So many people would be confused by their roles, it would be a psychological battle to the finish.
Let's post more than just links to song, or embedded videos...give reasons for why you want to see a song/songs in Rock Band. I would personally love to see some Kings of Leon come out as DLC. I'm a huge fan and think they have some songs that would be fun for the entire band to play, even the bassist. :P
Incubus.Agreed. I think you and I have been over this before, but this band deserves some serious attention from these games.
Also, for us Guitar Heroes: Nottingham Lace
i'd love to get some dream theater in rock band, maybe Strange Deja Vu on Scenes from a Memory, or the whole album.
And definately the entire Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence SONG, not the whole album.
"i'd love to get some dream theater in rock band, maybe Strange Deja Vu on Scenes from a Memory, or the whole album.And definately the entire Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence SONG, not the whole album."Yes Please :) Outside of that the only songs I could ask for are Metropolis Pt.1 from Images and Words and Honor Thy Father from Train of Thought.
To add further, Sultans of Swing is a great song on all parts, and the guitar solo is particularly amazing. The vocals aren't hard, but they are very unique and classic, and the bass line is very prominent in the band's sound. Also, the drum line would probably be difficult, mainly because it is just an superb showcasing in rhythm in rock. All parts of the song are great.
Also, I would love to see Led Zeppelin, but that is never going to happen. Pink Floyd? Hopefully. At the very least, some Jethro Tull and Yes. We need more prog rock in Rock Band, and those two bands are legendary.
"Hobbies said:Yep, I think we have. Incubus would fit Rock Band so well, no matter what album the songs are from. Plus, they are my favorite band. :DIncubus.Agreed. I think you and I have been over this before, but this band deserves some serious attention from these games. "

"Hobbies said:It is a good song, but I'd much rather have some stuff from S.C.I.E.N.C.E. and A Crow Left of the Murder.And Incubus.""
Pretty Please? I love this song. Sick Sad Little World would be cool too.

Can we get some more Aerosmith here as well?

"To add further, Sultans of Swing is a great song on all parts."I absolutely agree with this on top of my Roadrunner United choice. I've been dying for "Sultans of Swing" ever since the first game. Unfortunately, I was also praying forever for "China Grove"...and then they put it on fucking GUITAR HERO DS!!! ARE YOU FUCKING SHITTING ME?!

"RHCP, Karmum..."Creep" was absolutely NO fun to play. I hope to God they keep the rest of their catalogue as far away from Rock Band as possible. = P"Creep, despite being arguably Radiohead's most well known song, is actually one of their weakest songs (along with the whole album Pablo Honey, in my opinion). They have a great catalog of work, and Creep hardly shows that. My Iron Lung, the downloadable Radiohead song, is FAR better to play and listen to; I especially love singing it.
I want some fun catchy music, not 7 minutes of pretentious prog shit, not an infinity of solos, not something that's only liked because no one actually likes it, just something I can play and enjoy.

Harmonix would have my heart forever if they got in some damn Phish..got The Dead, now Phish..then i will be happy forever, "You Enjoy Myself", "It's Ice", or anything really..
"not something that's only liked because no one actually likes it."i lul'd
"I want some fun catchy music, not 7 minutes of pretentious prog shit, not an infinity of solos, not something that's only liked because no one actually likes it, just something I can play and enjoy."Well sorry, but this "prententious prog shit" is type of music I happen to enjoy. Sorry for posting that I wanted it.
If I have to suggest a "Fun catchy" song, I suggest this:
