Currently, there are 7 real titles announced for Guitar Hero 2:

For those of you who can't click (Oracle), they are:
Black Sabbath's "War Pigs"
Butthole Surfers' "Who Was in My Room Last Night?"
KISS' "Strutter"
Rush's "YYZ"
Reverend Horton Heat's "Psychobilly Freakout"
Van Halen's "You Really Got Me"
Primus' "John the Fisherman"
They've announced 40 total licenced tracks and 15 unlicenced (house band) tracks (Drist has got one already).
So, which songs would you guys like to see as the other 33 licenced songs? Some of my picks are:
1)Eye of the Tiger by Survivor- this would be a great opening track. Like I Love Rock 'N Roll, it's easy and EVERYONE knows it thanks to Rocky
2)Pour Some Sugar On Me by Def Leopard - another fun and easy track
3)No Rain by Blind Melon - this is one of those songs that everyone seems to like or at least not hate and has some decent guitar work
4)Night Train by Guns 'N Roses - probably the most playable of the GNR songs and the fact it's not one of their popular ones, should be cheaper. One of my favs
5)Layla by Derek and the Dominos - the original rock version, not the slow one
6)Freebird by Lynard Skynard - the ending solo would be IMPOSSIBLE, but so much fun (and about 6 minutes long :-)
7)Sweet Child 'O Mine by Guns 'N Roses - another good one by GNR that translates well to the game even if it's not their best
8)Unforgiven by Metallica - again, one of the more playable songs from the group, but not their best
9)Thunderstruck by AC/DC - if you don't want to play this in Guitar Hero 2, you don't like rock music IMO
As you can tell, I have a slightly older weight to my songs here. Can't really think of too many newer songs that would translate well to the game. Guitar work isn't what it used to be IMO. I call it the Green Day Effect :-)
