Greetings Rocksmith fans!
Today’s a bit different as we know all five singles headed to Rocksmith 2014 next week. While we aren’t sure if the release will be referred to as Yacht Rock Singles we are gonna call it that anyway!
It all started with a rather lengthy clue posted earlier today by @DanAmrich
Rotated and translated from QuickScript we ended up with:
O’Malley’s was the only watering hole in this sleepy little town. And down the hall I saw her sipping a concoction of pineapple coconut and rum.
I knew the curve of her face. I knew her smile in an instant. Oh it’s you she said icily. She only smile when she lied. I can only stay a little while, I said, ignoring her disapproval. But the way you’ve been treating my friends the sheriff and his buddies, she asked in mock surprise. You’re better off not listening to their advice with their samurai swords. It’s gone too far, Missus Perkins, I said abruptly. And you don’t have to tell me why the gossip gets to flying.
She glanced beyond me as if looking for a way out. “Sometimes I may forget what I’m doing, Missus Perkins, but I don’t forget what I want.” “Don’t say that”, she mumbled. I saw her hand tremble and decided to hold it. “I know it’s hard for you to say the things we both know”, I ventured. “Your love set me free.” She grabbed me like a hungry octopus.
Which referred to five different songs that each person on the forum figured out in less than four hours!
Yacht Rock Singles
- Rupert Holmes – Escape
- Doobie Brothers – China Grove
- Toto – Hold the Line
- Hall & Oates – Kiss on my List
- Michael McDonald – I Keep Forgettin’
On a personal note, Hold The Line has been a song I have been hoping to see on either Guitar Hero or Rock Band for years now. Extremely happy to see my dream come true yet again, thanks UbisoftSF!
Now this is variety! What songs are you grabbing next week? All five? None? Let us know!
excited about escape and china grove. I couldn't stand to listen to the other three.
Get off our lawn 😉
Piss off you annoying bitch! Without these classic rock bands, your favorite artists wouldn't exist.
Best five-pack yet. Get some Supertramp.
its obvious that "dan" has too much say on dlc and its even more sad that this many seniors rely on a video game to live out their never happened rock star dreams. sorry i don't play 8 track music i play music that was written by talented artists not one's on flower power thanks for showing how pathetic you are ubisoft have fun solving puzzles and keep reaching for that rock star
Now this is a cool, out of the box sort of direction. Im greatly in favor of this kind of song release. Its like a grab bag of fun.
that's better
YES YES YES credit card look out for this pack
as long as we dont get kenny loggins being an annoying idiot in between them like on gta5 then i'm in
Daryl Hall & John Oates. Baby… More Hall & Oates…. yes…more. Won't make a list of the MANY other songs I hope to see eventually from them… but it's a book. Nice to see.. Hope to see many more. this is a good start.
Sarcasm, you've failed me again.
I prefer Hold the Line over Africa because of the guitar solo.
I love "Africa" one of my favourite songs to listen to from Toto. However, the better song for Rocksmith was chosen in this situation 🙂
Another 5 to add to the catalogue. Keep 'em coming.
Daniel Weddell I know about the bass.
Christoffer Waage It's got an even better bass track.
Oh, yes. What a sweet guitar track Africa has.
Wow, Toto? That is certainly unexpected. I would've loved to see "Africa" instead, but this is still very good.
This is just fantastic and unexpected. I'm definitely buying all five.
I'm in for China Grove and Hold the Line.
China Grove
Hall & Oats Really ? I'm in.
I'll get all 5 for sure ! Great songs !
