Hello Rocksmith fans!
RollingStone222’s clue has been posted and solved, and it looks like we are in for something a bit different next week!
Let’s check it out.
It’s a GIF!
Some excellent movie quotes, what’s the common theme?
hmmm…
Anyone catch that?
Well I’ll be…
Nailed it!
@SeetherOfficial returns to Rocksmith!
A pack of Rock Covers? What a great idea, and there sure is a a lot to choose from. Could bands from the Rocksmith library return in this mixed pack? Who knows!
What follows is speculation
There’s many covers of this Gerry Rafferty classic, but this is definitely one of the best
How many Ska covers do you figure could be included?
I’d usually leave it to the comments section…
We already have one George Michael song in this pack, but I’d be fine with it…
Show of hands, how many people knew this was a Slade cover?
ugh, this is going to be in there isn’t it…
Are you excited for a pack full of Rockin’ Covers? Or would you rather have the originals? Let us know!
UPDATE:
The Rockin' Covers song pack offers newer takes on time-tested songs from four bands – this one wants your love (love love love). pic.twitter.com/r63pJMz17E

“99 Red Balloons”, “Careless Whisper”, “Bad Romance” and “Tainted Love”. I heard Manson’s cover of “Tainted Love” last night and was thinking it would be a good fit for this pack.
Anything from me first and the gimme gimmes. Alien ant farm “smooth criminal”. Reel Big Fish “Take on Me”.
Faith No More’s cover of War Pigs would be great.
I wonder if Land of Confusion that Disturbed covered counts as rock, anyway, it is a really good cover
Breaking Benjamin – Enjoy The Silence
Too crazy?
A 16 pack please:
A Perfect Circle – Diary of a Lovesong (Ozzy/The Cure – we already have half of it!)
Marilyn Manson – Sweet Dreams (Eurythmics)
Portishead – S.O.S. (ABBA)
Foo Fighters – Down in the Park (Gary Numan)
Peter Gabriel – My Body is a Cage (Arcade Fire)
Lacuna Coil – Enjoy The Silence (Depeche Mode)
Disturbed – The Sound of Silence (Simon & Garfunkel)
Hole – Gold Dust Woman (Fleetwood Mac)
Johnny Cash – Hurt (Nine Inch Nails)
Queen Adreena – Jolene (Dolly Parton)
Metallica – Whiskey in the Jar (Thin Lizzy)
Moby – New Dawn Fades (Joy Division)
Nine Inch Nails – Dead Souls (Joy Division)
Placebo – Running Up That Hill (Kate Bush)
Kate Bush – Rocket Man (Elton John)
Tool – No Quarter (Led Zeppelin)
Nirvana – The Man Who Sold the World (while waiting for a pack)
all along the watchtower by hendrix would be a sure hit
I caught Save Ferris on the Warped Tour in June. “Come On Eileen” was a high point of the day for me and would be great to see in the library.
And alien ant farm smooth criminal
Maybe john frusanties (rhcp guitar) the begining is the end. Its a quasi cover tribute to funadelics maggot brain
I’ve love to see the Red Hot Chili Peppers cover of Love Rollercoaster.
I wanna see the Kings of Leon cover of Dancing on My Own.
How about a pack of Ozzy doing covers of Black Sabbath songs? lol

This isn’t bad:
Waow, this could be a GREAT pack! Waiting for the final list! (Hopefully with Marilyn Manson, Disturbed and a Guns n’ Roses song from Spaghetti Incident … ^^’ )
maybe “sweet dreams” by marilyn manson !
I’d like to see Imagine covered by A Perfect Circle or The Boy with the Thorn in his Side covered by J Mascis included.
Actually after listening to that again I want the new Dinosaur Jr music in Rocksmith.
I was going to include “Just Like Heaven” always preferred their cover
It’d be weird to have 2 versions of ‘Just Like Heaven’ though. Hard to imagine they can get the rights to the Beatles, either. Both would be fun though.
worked for Simple Man and Holy Diver
The Primus version of “Have a Cigar” would be great, but I’m sure Pink Floyd are too big of douches to ever license it for a lowly video game.
I’m really, REALLY hoping for the Hendrix versions of Hey Joe or All Along the Watchtower (we’ve had both Hendrix songs and Bob Dylan songs in Rocksmith, so I’d say it’s plausible that we could get AATW).
Also another one that you should have mentioned in the speculation is I Love Rock ‘n’ Roll, as this was originally a song by the Arrows, however, everyone always thinks of Joan Jett’s version.
TIL
Call for experts if Funkadelic – Maggot Brain is actually a cover of an oldie!
