Oh bah, couldn't put in an actual Pop Rock song like "Hazel Eyes" could we? I'm not ashamed to admit it, my friends and I have been wanting that song in a music game since the first Karaoke Revolution came out!
What does LEGO Rock Band have to do with Kelly Clarkson being added to the DLC list? RB's been getting pop acts since it came out.
Heck, a number of the bands in LEGO already have songs as DLC or are getting them in the near future. (Including Petty, Elton John, Korn, Queen, and David Bowie)
@TRT-X: I think the point being made in that regard is that since Lego Rock Band came out, they've decided to make more pop DLC.
Though last time they had Rob Zombie, if I recall correctly. I may not be as into Rock Band as most commenters on Kotaku are, but I'm well aware of the fact that Harmonix usually keeps things straight in the DLC department. This batch is probably just a catering to people who bought Lego RB.

Harmonix tends to license multiple songs at once, usually in sets of three.
Tom Petty's a good example: before the live tracks, there was Free Fallin' (Lego), Runnin' Down a Dream (DLC), and I Won't Back Down (DLC). The Allman Brothers Band is another. "Ramblin' Man" was in Rock Band 2, and "Midnight Rider" and "Blue Sky" showed up as DLC later.
There are always exceptions, but if Harmonix has licensed a band for the disc they'll usually show up again as DLC down the line.
Psyched for more Tom Petty in RB! Hope these live versions are really good. Sometimes the live versions they choose for some songs are kind of dodgy and you wish they just went with the studio track.
I think i'm only gonna get A Day in Life because that's my favorite Beatles song, but most of the album (that is not already included on the disk) doesn't seem to fit that well for rockband. #thebeatlesrockband
Hopefully the tracks are all for sale individually. I got 2 of them coming for free after a preorder bonus. I can probably buy the rest for less than the cost of the pack (unlike Abbey Road, where my free track was completely pointless) #thebeatlesrockband

The first week, we had Foo Fighters and Nirvana. The following week was AFI. This week we also have Tom Petty.
There have been "poppier" singles included in those weeks, but it's on different than what we've been seeing for the past year or so.

I like Beatles HITS, but there is a lot of Beatles music that I don't care if I ever hear again.
So I might grab "When I'm sixty-four" but the rest don't interest me. Which is good, in the long run, because I only have so much money.
