Rock Band DLC: Tom Petty, Kelly freakin' Clarkson photo

I think what most pleases me about the release of the "family friendly" LEGO Rock Band, it's that it opens up the platform to all kinds of pop nonsense we might not have ordinarily seen. By "nonsense," I mean stuff I have been secretly flooding Harmonix with requests for. 

Take Kelly Clarkson for instance -- girl can sing. Next week, "Miss Independent" comes to Rock Band, along with songs from "Sure, I'll put an exclamation point in my name" P!nk and Go-Go's.

Single tracks ($1.99/160 MS Points/200 Wii Points per track)

  • Go-Go's "Our Lips Are Sealed" +
  • Kelly Clarkson - "Miss Independent" +
  • P!nk - "Who Knew" +

Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers Live Anthology Pack 01 ($9.99/800 MS Points for the pack; $1.99/160 MS Points/200 Wii Points per track)

  • "A Think About You (live)" +
  • "American Girl (live)" 
  • "Even the Losers (live)"
  • "Here Comes My Girl (live") +
  • "Mary Jane's Last Dance (live)"
  • "Refugee (live)" +
(The "+" indicates the tracks is available available on both the Rock Band and the LEGO Rock Band music stores)

Kelly Clarkson plus six live Tom Petty tracks? Time to stock up on MS Points. (Yes, you can make fun of me in the comments.)

As of next week, there are 1000 songs available to play in Rock Band. You guys are really going to get upset because there are a few you don't personally like? Come on now! "Miss Independent" rules. What happened to her need to be defensive, guys?

Wait until Jay-Z and all those talentless dicks get on the RB store. Then you'll be sorry.

@Jon B:

Does Snoop Dogg count as a talentless dick? ;)

No, I have no idea when that is supposed to happen, or even if it will happen. Maybe it'll debut alongside Q Entertainment's Japanese version of Rock Band... or Snoop Dogg's Rock Bizzle.

Music is subjective, stop being douches about it.

Yep, I love Kelly.

If I had rock band I'd probably get the Kelly Clarkson song. No lie, she's my ultimate guilty pleasure

That pic of Kelly looks like she's getting it doggystyle. I approve.

The problem with most pop-styled songs is that, from my experience, they are boring as well for everyone except the singer, who gets to have all the fun while the other bandmates play extremely simple tracks. True, this happens with plenty of non-pop songs as well, but it seems like this problem is more frequent with the pop songs. Some songs are just a better fit for Singstar, but oh well.

P!nk turns an i upside down, not to be confused with the long defunct Kiddie City toy store chain where the only thing they specialized in turning upside down were frowns.

Those... aren't really the songs I wanted from Tom Petty. I'm kind of stunned, and I don't know why. I thought I was a big fan lol.

Hope they add more Kelly Clark songs. I like her music and I know my wife will sing with me while I play them.

Nice to see that's only labeled as pack 1 from Tom Petty, and they'll hopefully all be live tracks.

@Wedge: I hate to tell you, but they do this for all their track packs (start with 01).
