As many have stated before, some Madonna songs would be awesome… I presume it’s a licensing issue rather than anything else holding a release back.

Some more Leona Lewis, Whitney Houston, Celine Dion, Anastacia, Cher and Bananarama would be great too!

Oh, and please release more of the PS2 and PS3 songs from discs on the singstore! I ended up downloading half the songs I wanted from Vol. 3 and Pop without realising they were on there and now it seems pointless to buy the discs for just one or two remaining songs I might like.

When’s the next update?

I appreciate the attempts at getting a good variance of music available. However, despite having a very eclectic music taste, I have not found more than 2 or 3 songs on these updates since as February or longer. They seem to be R&B dominated.

I would love to see some:

George Strait (57 #1 hits)
Bruce Springsteen
More 80/90’s pop (Sister Christian, or Billy Vera “what did you think” would be awesome.)
Frank Sinatra
Duets: (Kid Rock & Sheryl Crow- “Picture,” Human League’s “Don’t you want me baby,” Johnny Cash & June Carter- “Jackson (we got married in a fever).”

** I know that the attempt is to provide music for everyone, but when you select an artist like Ray Charles and choose a song like “hit the road Jack” you likely aren’t really satisfying Ray Charles demographic. It is more like satisfying the non-Ray Charles demographic, while appearing to be throwing Charles fans a bone. In other words, people who like Ray Charles would likely put “hit the road jack” as one of their least favorite RC songs because it is just to cliché’ and overplayed.

This is just my take on the situation… you’re the one with the marketing info. I just thought I would share.

Thanks,
Brian

I think that you should include the same songs that appear in some games to the store!(Michael Jackson’s billy jean and Britney Spears’s toxic for instance) in my opinion, the discharges would be increased.
Or sale the game via singstore and not only on blueray format and be able to separate the songs if you do not like all of them.
And made some conection with de vidzone! that could be interesting.
I’m agree with the idea of a top 10 songs

Thanks so much for the updates, I live in the US and they never seem to post these, do you think you could do this for the US blog too?

Also, could you guys start taking requests or do some more polls regarding what we want?

Thanks again!

@ l0_t0 I’ve got the same problem, had the errSever message since trying to get to MSO since around 6PM GMT today. A pitty because I really wanted to view these, hope it is a maintenance issue.

As for the update… Baggy Trousers is instant win for me, brings back memories of riding shotgun in a 3 wheel van rocking it from side to side as we sing it loudly as we drive along the main road into Hull… Those where the days…

Under maintenance or something?
