Something from Scenes From a Memory maybe?

Under a Glass Moon?

If it's Muse though it better be New Born and it better be live.

As someone pointed out earlier, I remember Harmonix pointing out that Muse is NOT the most requested band for Rock Band and in fact nowhere near it, they just have an extremely vocal fanbase.

Which granted that could translate to them putting in more Muse simply to shut them up at this point.

I also don't really see Scenes From a Memory being the most requested, even though I would kill someone in order to actually get some good Dream Theater in this game and they're a fan favorite amongst experienced RB players I don't think it's going to be them purely as something like GnR or Metallica would be far more requested by the general public.

Clearly it's going to be Elvis, then.

It's got to be something from GNR. Paradise City would be AMAZING.

It will be a song.

My main issue with the Muse prediction is that I can't think of a reason we'd be getting more Muse right now. I think, based on the Muse we've gotten in the two series so far, Muse is possible, just very difficult, to license. Between Muse and Dream Theater, both Warner bands that seem heavily-requested enough to get large packs that we've instead only gotten occasional singles from for both Rock Band and Guitar Hero, I've been wondering if Warner just charges huge amounts per song for licensing their major bands. So Harmonix would only bother releasing a Muse song if they really thought it was worth it. And if that's the case, why would they do it just for a Valentine's day release? If they were going to bother spending the money to get more Muse, I'd think they'd have done it over the holidays, rather than now.

I'd similarly expect them to choose a different time to release something like GnR if they finally managed to release it, but since, as far as I know, licensing problems with GnR are more an issue of Slash and Axl disagreeing about things and not a record label trying to milk money out of them, that's one that could change suddenly. If Warner were going to suddenly change their minds and start handing out Muse tracks, I don't think it would happen in January. On the other hand, if Slash and Axl did suddenly agree to put their old stuff in Rock Band (however unlikely that is), then that's something that wouldn't necessarily coincide with a more profitable time of year, and if Harmonix suddenly got access to old GnR in December or January they might not want to wait until next holiday season to release it. I think the same goes for Led Zeppelin, that just seems less likely to happen.

As for Avenged Sevenfold, the wording of the tweet makes it sound like it's the most requested song period, not just the most requested song not already released, and I have the feeling Beast and the Harlot (or maybe Bat Country) would have been more requested than anything that we don't have yet. I wouldn't be surprised if A Little Piece of Heaven is very high up on the list, but I would be kind of surprised if it were number 1.

Overall, I think Never Gonna Give You Up is most likely, because of the balance of accessibility and timing. Every other song that seems like it might top the list either seems like it probably isn't obtainable (GnR, Led Zeppelin), or that it would have been just obtainable during the holiday season as it would be now (Muse, Avenged Sevenfold) and that would have been a better time to release it.

Although honestly, there isn't really a realistic suggestion so far that I'd be really unhappy with. A7x would be the least exiting to me, but their songs are still pretty fun to play. Finally getting any of the heavily-requested bands that we don't have (or barely have) yet would be awesome. And NGGYU would be an amazing party song, even if it wouldn't be as significant and the charts wouldn't be as fun as most of the other suggestions.
