Songs You Want on Guitar Hero:

Agh! I love this theme idea! Let me start out by saying, I have discovered a few very awesome songs on Guitar Hero (although I only have versions two and three). One of my favorite discoveries is "Radium Eyes" by Count Zero, which is actually custom made for Guitar Hero. I bought it on iTunes :]]. Also, I discovered "Mauvais Gar" by Naast, which is a cool french song you can buy on GH3. My favorites on GH3 (since I don't really like any on GH2) are "When you Were young" by The Killers (gotta have The Killers), "Helicopter" by Bloc Party (this has been one of my favorite songs forever, so it was pretty awesome to see it on my favorite video game), "Cliffs of Dover" by Eric Johnson, "My Names is Jonas" by Weezer, "Reptilia" by The Strokes, and "Knights of Cydonia" by Muse. But anyway, the theme is "songs you want", so I want:
1. Icky Thump- The White Stripes
2. Certain Romance- The Arctic Monkeys
3. Joker and the Thief- Wolfmother
4. Ragoo- Kings of Leon
5. Do You Think I'm Pretty?- He is Legend
6.She Moves In Her Own Way- The Kooks
7. Apply Some Pressure- Maximo Park
8. Dashboard- Modest Mouse
9. Little Black Backpack- Stroke 9
10. ... I'm out of songs.
That was actually kind of hard...
I just wish I was as good at the actual guitar as I am at Guitar Hero. Because I play guitar and everything, but I'm pretty bad.
And I think it's funny that Slash can't even play his own songs on Guitar Hero. alyssa from

I would definitely want some Jimmy Hendrix, System of a Down, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, or Alice Cooper!

I was thinking that after talking about Panic at the Disco's new album, we should talk about your favorite British bands, because there are a lot of them that people love. Riley, 15 from United States
