News: Taylor Swift is in some good company.



With the game's release a little more than two weeks away, Activision has unveiled the full track list for Band Hero, the "family-friendly" Guitar Hero spinoff that will be coming to the DS, PlayStation 2, PlayStation 3, Wii and Xbox 360 on November 3.

And if the game's super bright color scheme is too much too handle, Activision has also announced that Band Hero will contain a song export feature to bring 61 of its 65 songs into Guitar Hero 5. This export feature will require a one-time licensing fee of $4.99 on the PS3, 420 Microsoft Points on the Xbox 360 or 500 Wii Points on the Wii.

The reverse will also be an option as songs from Guitar Hero: World Tour, Guitar Hero 5 and Guitar Hero: Smash Hits will be able to be imported into Band Hero for another one-time licensing fee of $5.99 on the PS3, 480 Microsoft Points on the Xbox 360 or 600 Wii Points on the Wii (presumably per game).



So which songs have made it into the game? Well, besides a trio of songs from Taylor Swift, there's a lot of good stuff on this list, including the Spice Girls' "Wannabe" (I'm only half joking). Here's the full song list for the console version:
