Believe me, I'd want to put the Beatles in as well, but the band (or Ringo Starr specifically) is notorious for being very strict about how their music is used in media like movies, television and video games. "The Beatles Rock Band" was one of the only exceptions, and that game's budget, not counting promotions, was through the roof. While EA had no problem with the extreme costs, I'm sure Sega would not have the budget for something like that for one song. It's the same reason why I didn't put anything by Led Zeppelin either, which I really wanted to. I selected songs that could realistically be licensed for not all that much, since Sega is no Rockstar Games or EA.
