My Favorite Tracks on Rock Band in 2008 and More..

Dana
I strongly believe that taste in music is something highly personal. Rock Band and Rock Band 2 offer tracks in many different genres of. My own top track probably greatly differs from the next player. For instance, I don't care for metal. You will not find any metal in my list of top Rock Band tracks even though Rock Band 2 has loads of them to choose from.

All the songs on my list are there because they are nostalgic for me in some way, shape or form. Some of my tracks didn't come out in 2008 but my list didn't seem complete without them. I listed tracks from both Rock Band and Rock Band 2, some came on the disc and others are downloadable.

Rock Band:

In Bloom- Nirvana (This came from their album Nevermind.)

Enter Sandman-Metallica (Album: Metallica)

Buddy Holly-Weezer (From their debut album, The Blue Album).

Dani California-Red Hot Chili Peppers (The first single from the album Stadium Arcadium.)

Black Hole Sun-Soundgarden (From 1994's Superunknown)

Rock Band 2:

Today-Smashing Pumpkins (From their Siamese Dream album).

Under the Bridge-Red Hot Chili Peppers (Blood Sugar Sex Magik)

You Oughta Know-Alanis Morissette (Jagged Little Pill album)

Wonderwall-Oasis (Wonderwall single)

Livin' On A Prayer-Bon Jovi (Slippery When Wet album)

Shooting Star-Bad Company (Straight Shooter album)

These songs all bring me back to a place in my youth at some point. Music can conjure up feelings, emotions and even images of memories that might otherwise be lost. For this reason, these tracks are here. I can vividly remember dancing around my living room to Bon Jovi as a 3rd graders. When I hear their music on Rock Band I can sit and smile in remembrance.

Feel free to agree or disagree but these are my own top favorite tracks from the Xbox 360 version of Rock Band and Rock Band 2.
