      Borrowed does not mean “cover” in this case, but that’s a good guess.

        I know. That’s why I said Gangdam Style is a borrowed song… The song itself is technically new but the dancing is borrowed from MC Hammer.

          Right in a literal sense would be ‘correct’ ‘?

          3 Songs with “right” in the title that are themed (in the form of ‘correct’); from artists that were on Rock Band.

          I got nothing, wonder if my post will spark something in somebody else.

           

          As for the 2 songs borrowed, I would say 1 is Ice Ice, Baby if it’s FtV, also Eminem borrowed Dido on “Stan”

           

          Dammit. I’m Googling songs with “right” in the title. I need to get back to work.

          I’m taking “borrowed” to mean ‘originally from Guitar Hero’ – although even then I’m struggling with what the theme could be.

            This is also a good guess but is also not it. espher, as usual, really did a number on this hint.

              Could borrowed mean something like doing the chart of a song that has already been charted by someone else?

                For Pete’s sake, it’s a pack of songs with “right” somewhere in the title! <img decoding=” src=”/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/default_SA_biggrin.gif” />

                 

                I hope one of the songs is Right Now by Van Halen! I’ve been dying for some Sammy Haggar era Van Halen in Rock Band. <img decoding=” src=”/wp-content/uploads/invision_emoticons/default_SA_smile.gif” />

                #405260
                and one thing 한국ì˜.

                 

                FtV: PSY – Gangnam Style by TrojanNemo?? xD

                That makes two of us. Right Now would be outstanding. I’d also love all of 5150 as well.

                  Hint explanations — behind spoiler tags for anyone that wanted to try and pair hints to songs themselves.

                   

                   

                  This themed three-pack is indoubtably correct, straight, and in close proximity. All three artists are currently available in Rock Band.

                   

                  Supertramp – “Bloody Well Right”

                  Alanis Morissette – “Right Through You”

                  Guns N’ Roses – “Right Next Door to Hell”

                   

                  This new single from a band previously featured in Rock Band ensures that we are doing our part towards continuing Dave Grohl Band.

                   

                  As correctly guessed, this is “My God is the Sun” by Queens of the Stone Age.

                   

                  This themed five-pack features two things old, three things new, two things borrowed, and one thing 한국의.

                   

                  Assuming I didn’t get mixed up on the dates again…

                   

                  Theme: The Internet: Then and Now – Songs that gained popularity via the internet.

                  Two things old: Group X‘s “Don’t Touch That” and O-Zone‘s “Dragostea din tei” are both pre-2007.

                  Three things new: The other three tracks, being PSY‘s “Gangnam Style”, rathergood.com‘s “Bagger 288!”, and Tay Zonday‘s “Chocolate Rain” are all post-2007, which was the absolutely arbitrary threshold I set for old and new when I was first talking about internet musics and memes well before pksage got the ball rolling on this pack.

                  Two things borrowed: O-Zone‘s “Dragostea din tei” and PSY‘s “Gangnam Style” are functionally FtV releases, though with much in the way of additions and revisions — some of the work is thus ‘borrowed’ from another author.

                  One thing 한국의: Yelling at hindquarters.

                   

                  Yes, it’s hard, and I wanted to do invidual hints but never got a window to confer with authors to get a full set because I am bad at this.

                   

                  The web show from which this track originates would probably be much different if the host’s name started with a “no” instead of a “yes”.

                   

                  Zero Punctuation is a webseries hosted by Yahtzee, best known for his snarky wit and derision of MMORPURGERs, among other things. The show would likely be much different if his name started with a “no” (N) instead of a “yes’ (Y), in that it would be Nahtzee, and now I have Godwin’d the hint threads yay

                    We can’t take you anywhere, espher! Next thing we know you’ll be cussing out authors in the release threads!

                      Interestingly enough the whole post shows up in the email notifications, with the hidden text visible since the bb code isnt active in my email.

                      But on tapatalk, nothing shows except the first sentence.
