With their catchy hooks and off-beat sense of humor, Australia’s Men at Work became a huge success in the ‘80s. One of their best known tracks, “Down Under” – the second single from 1981’s Business as Usual – became a number one hit on the U.S. Billboard charts in the year of its release. The Aussie band found similar success with 1983’s album Cargo, and their second single off the record, “Overkill.” Both tracks come to the Rock Band Music Store on March 20th.
Finding his first success in the late ‘60s, guitarist Carlos Santana is nothing short of a legend. His band Santana returned to mainstream success in 1999 with their album, Supernatural, thanks in no small part to the hit single “Smooth.” A collaboration with Matchbox Twenty’s Rob Thomas, the single rocketed to the top of worldwide charts and won three Grammy Awards, including one for “Song of the Year.” This certified platinum single comes to Rock Band next week, with an optional Pro Guitar and Pro Bass upgrade.

OMG YES! Men At Work and Smooth by Santana! I will totally be getting it all. Also, Santana gets the upgrade, which is awesome! I come from a land down under...bitch!
Definitely getting Down Under, would be great at parties. And Smooth sounds like a lot of fun on guitar, so that's also a definite. Also, since Men at Work is now official, what about that Outlaws song they leaked a while ago?
Well, this week is much better than last weeks DLC. Getting it all.

I don't know what's more surprising, the fact that Men At Work isn't a 3 pack, or the fact that they picked Overkill over Who Can it Be Now?
well put, at least this is a lot better than 3 Days Grace imo. Will grab the Santana track as well.

Smooth
Those two songs whose bodily fluids reek of the 80s
I can guarantee you that if Mizore (being a stalker and all) had an iPod it would have The Police's "Every Breath You Take" and Rockwell's "Somebody's Watching Me" on it (both 80's songs).

Yeah, that one. I don't remember when, but I remember its appearance in an announcement once.
No, there was never a specific Outlaws song leaked. One of the weekly in-game updates said "and singles by (whatever the bands that came out that week were) and the Outlaws", but it never mentioned a specific song.
And then someone from Harmonix said that they were not aware of any Outlaws DLC as it wasn't on the release schedule, and said it must have been a typo...
