Tomorrow morning, MTV plans to announce an exclusive agreement with Apple Corps. regarding a “unprecedented global music project.” Since the network is unlikely to be running any Beatles programming in the near future, could this be the rumored arrival of the Beatles on the MTV Games-produced Rock Band games? If it’s true, will it be a stand-alone version of the game or a series of downloads? Tune in tomorrow for the official announcement, but now’s the time to make your fantasy playlists in the comments.

Helter Skelter
A Day in the Life
The End
Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band (Reprise)
Revolution
Taxman

W hatever is announced tomorrow, if it involves the Beatles and is as huge as the vague announcement claims, will be excellent, regardless if this is a Rock Band / Beatles merger.

Are we really trying to pick songs for a Beatles Rock Band? Are there going to be any songs that someone doesn’t want on these games? I don’t think it can go wrong.

ann | 10/30/2008, 11:15 am EST

every Beatles song is AMAZING!! so it doesnt really matter to me which ones are on it. im just psyched for a rock band totally devoted to the Beatles!!!! it will rock!

I’m not really a video game fan, and I fail at guitar hero and rock band, but when I heard that there was gonna be one totally deticated to the beatles, I freaked. I’m like, the biggest beatles fan ever, I listen to it every day. I have almost all the songs, and I can’t wait for the game. it sounds like a lot of fun.

nina | 2/12/2009, 10:06 pm EST

Drive my car
I saw her standing there
Please please me
Yellow submarine
Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da
Day tripper
8 days a week
eleanor rigby
a hard day’s night
Octopus’s garden
I am the walrus
Get back
All together now
Revolution
Twist and Shout
With a little help from my friends
Stg. Pepper’s lonely hearts club band
Let it be

And the list goes on…………

ant | 3/6/2009, 11:07 am EST

this is going to monumentally fail. they should add beatle songs to the Rock Band set list – not make a Beatles video game on a separate disc. Aerosmith Guitar Hero failed because of this. i know these bands are not equal but the premise is the same- just add the songs to Rock Band instead of coming out with a new disc and probably special edition instruments…

beatle fan | 3/9/2009, 10:25 am EST

IM LOOKING FOWARD TO BUY THE GAME!!!

beatle fan | 3/9/2009, 10:26 am EST

FINALLY!!!!

Angie | 3/12/2009, 9:49 am EST

Finally Beatles…
I cannot wait to get it.

Jeff | 3/15/2009, 1:06 pm EST

i cant wait for the gameee
i agree with “Freddie”
but notice how all the songs he listed were on the Beatles CD “1″ ?
How about:
Revolution
Here Comes The Sun
When Im 64
thats what i think

achy | 3/29/2009, 11:14 pm EST

the song that has to be on there for sure is, I WANT TO HOLD YOUR HAND

Jeff | 3/31/2009, 8:55 am EST

yeahh i think i wanna hold you hand should be on it along with twist and shout

will | 4/2/2009, 1:14 pm EST

i love the beatles and this is AWESOME its coming out but how are they going to get all the instruments the beatles use on rockband?????

trevor | 4/3/2009, 8:08 pm EST

dont feel pissed off but…..

do you relly thing this will sell well? yes the beatles are the greatest band of all time but…
with hanna montana,jones brothers and rap,woald kids by it? i hope so

Everyone’s taste in music is different, but the reason Aerosmith failed was the songs were few and lousy. Simply not fun. It’s all about the songs and how much fun they are to sing and play.

AC/DC on the other had a all their greatest hits songs. The premiere version had a DVD, shirt, and fun to play. A worthwhile purchase either way.

We all want the songs we personally love to listen to. Some songs don’t seem to translate well to Rock Band. Again, it’s all about the fun.

I also would just prefer to simply download the songs from the online store. Lately I’ve been very choosy on which songs I add to my collection. Harmonix is offering a lot of garbage at us at times when we want hits.

Boi, u are brilliant.

Some across the universe movie remakes would be sweet, and we NEED straberry feilds forever and tommorrow never knows and hey jude or armaggedon will happen. I see some potential with helter skelter as the new through the fire and flames, and could we live without hello, goodby? I never liked music games (probably becouse i can’t do even slow ride on easy in guitar hero), but i will not rest until i pwn this game.

We could also use taxman.

Garden-Variety Beatles Fan | 4/20/2009, 10:37 pm EST

Oh yeah, and i’ve just seen a face, too.

BIG BEATLE FAN GARY | 6/16/2009, 9:50 am EST

i have found out that there is going to be at least 60+ songs (most of them being from the “1″ album) but will include songs from when beatlemania started all the way to when the band broke up and then some… the graphics are going to be awesome and the so called solo (story i guess you could put it)is going to look the whole basic career of the beatles (all the outfits and venues) theyll go from the black and white outfits to pirate outfits (while in the pirate outfits youll be playing songs like yellow submarine and in a octupus’s garden)…. now that i got all that done i dont know what theyre doing about the band split… and the Lennon death:( but otherwise i do know that the game will be awesome and it comes out 09.09.09
(my sources E3 09 EXPO, Ringo Starr and Paul McCartney were there and George Harrison’s son is the producer or CEO or whatever but its still awesome)
