The best $1 you ever spent on a song?

I've got 240 MSP left, and I want to know what quirky 80 point/ $1 songs I should be looking at. I have most of the staples (Trippolette, a couple Blue Fusion, Mystakin, Chaotrope songs) but there's just so many hidden gems out there, I don't know where to start.

I can't recommend Pressure Cooker enough. Extremely fun on every instrument. Definitely pick it up if you don't already have it.

also of note: Positive Force, and the Super Meat Boy songs.

"The Cold Taste of Nickel Plated Steel" by All Hallow's Evil. It's my most played RBN song....awesome on guitar and vocals.

I'd recommend Creatures ov Deception, but an RB3 version is coming soon so yeah.

With no idea what songs you have and judging by the difficulty of the songs you listed, may I suggest Alpha Strike if you haven't got it yet?

Other good tracks are the Van Friscia stuff, Foundation, Ramp Truck (RB3 version)...there's just too much out there that's good for a dollar.

Also, I second everything Mystakin said. Those are good songs too.

I cannot recommend Crooked Strings enough. No pro drums but it's fantastic on every other instrument (including standard drums).

The Battle Of Lil' Slugger. Possibly the best song from my favourite game released in the last 10 years...

any one dollar song by Freen in Green or Bluefusion. I do not regret buying any of their songs.

I would like to mention Paul Henry Smith and the Fauxharmonic Orchestra. I love playing each of these songs. And IIRC most of the stuff from Fairwood studios are only $1 each. I highly recommend the Morgawr songs. You definitely get your money's worth from those two tracks, one being like 6 and a half minutes and the other being over 9 minutes.

And seeing as this is an older song, you might have it. But if you don't have Descend Into the Eternal Pits of Possession yet, you can't go wrong with a 10 minute song for a dollar.

If you're into electronica/industrial/etc, then I also recommend Full Source. 3 great songs, not really hard to play, but damn are they awesome on the ears. And all for a dollar each.

I also echo the sentiments everyone has already posted. Can't go wrong with those choices.

And one last thing I would say. There are tons of rock songs that no one has ever heard of that are only a buck, so I would say download the demo or just listen to it in the music store. That's what I did for a bunch of those songs, if it sounded cool I'd get it

And most of those songs are usually tiers 3-4 on guitar/drums, so for the most part they're pretty fun, especially the tier 4 songs.

The best song I ever bought on RBN is any one of:

Anamanaguchi - 'Airbrushed'
Stagehands - 'Now Or Never'
Rainbowdragoneyes - 'Creatures Ov Deception'
any of the New Pornographers songs

Take that for what you will. I assume you're looking for difficulty, in which case Rainbowdragoneyes is the hardest. Musically speaking, my favourite is Stagehands. By far my favourite to play, even beating any Harmonix DLC that I can think of, is Anamanaguchi.

Wait, DitEPoP was 80 points!? Golly I hardly remember getting it, but I've not regretted it.

The only one I can think of that hasn't been said is Spira Mirabilis by Komodo. It is very odd, and very intense on drums. Definitely worth looking at.

Second The Battle of Lil' Slugger. Also, I haven't actually played it (it's not on PS3) but Creatures ov Deception looks mad fun on guitar (video link). (warning though...lots of doublets, so if you hate those you might not find it fun)

Christmas Rock Medley is also more than worth it for a dollar.
