Favorite song from Fallout 3/New Vegas.

[Instant K4rma]

I've been playing a lot of New Vegas lately, and I am a frequent listener of Mr. New Vegas, and this got me thinking. Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas both have phenomenal soundtracks, so my question to you, Escapists, is this: What is your favorite song that is played on the radio in Fallout 3 and/or Fallout New Vegas?

Mine would have to be Johnny Guitar:


Something about it is just so haunting. Very good song to listen to in a Fallout setting.

 

[AlternatePFG]

Jingle Jangle from New Vegas easily. I love that song, it's so addicting.

In fact all of New Vegas's soundtrack was pretty awesome.

 

[fnlrpa]

Arizona Ranger song. I just love it

 

[AmrasCalmacil]

Arizona Ranger song. I just love it

I think you mean this?


It's my favourite as well, huzzah!

 

[SilverStuddedSquirre]

Bingo Bango Bongo I don't want to leave Congo Oh no no-no-no NO!

Bango bongo bungo I'm so happy in the Jungle I refuse to Goooooo.

Oh boy, I loved the radio station soundtrack of both games, but if I had to make a top five it'd be
1.Civilization (F3)
2.Anything goes (F3)
3.Big Iron (F:NV)
4.I don't want to set the world on fire (F3, duh)
5.jingle jangle jingle (F:NV)
Those five songs rock!

Anything Goes from fallout 3

Cole Porter is a really talented song writer

 

[DustyDrB]

Mines not a radio song (don't care for those so much). The music for the Hoover Dam area is my favorite

 

[Echo136]

I hated the radio songs from New Vegas. They didnt catch my attention like 3 dog and the Capitol Wasteland radio station.

 

[MrGalactus]

I really love the New Vegas theme tune, but as far as the radio goes?
BA DA-DA, BA DA-DA, BA DA-DA-DAAA, de do de do-de-do do-de-do do-de-do-dooo.
CHRIST it's catchy. Ain't That A Kick In The Head - Dean Martin. Well, I think it's Dean Martin. Sounds like him.

 

[The Shade of Time]

Bingo Bango Bongo I don't want to leave Congo Oh no no-no-no NO!

Bango bongo bungo I'm so happy in the Jungle I refuse to Goooooo.

Civilizatioooooooooooonnnn, I'll stay right here.

Seriously that song made my Fallout 3 experiece just that more special.

Edit: Video for good measure

Kyser's Jingle Jangle Jingle from FNV
Dear Hearts and Gentle People from F3
Blue Moon from FNV
I Don't Want To Set The World On FIIIYAAAAAAHHH!!! (lol) from F3

Those are my four favorites, but I can't help but mention that I still get the fuzzy, creepy feeling the first time I saw the intro for the first Fallout game that played Maybe...

****Teeny start of game spoiler ahead:
First time i heard this song, i'd reached that place where the Legion massacred the populace. The song literally started up as i was approached by the leader who explained the situation. As i walked about the empty rooms, filled with corpses, the song was exceptionally fitting. About the only part of New Vegas i found, for lack of proper word, tense.

Anyways, my own favourite was that "with a big iron on his hip", but after 40 hours of the same songs being repeated over and over and over and over and over again, it's now on my list of songs i expect to be played in hell.

Civilization, Anything Goes, and I Don't Want to Set the World on Fire; all from Fallout 3. That combined with the most awesome radio personality, Three Dog, made exploring the wastes while listening to GNR that much more awesome.

New Vegas didn't quite live up to it's predecessor to me, although I did really like Jingle Jangle.

 

[BlumiereBleck]

Well everyone already said Ain't That A Kick in the Head and since Orange Colored Sky was cut lets go with my 3rd choice!

 

[hecticpicnic]

Fallout 3 is not complete, with out butcher Pete.
Awesome song.Me and i and a friend new this off by heart.
I enjoyed listening to the songs in fallout 3 over and over again.
I like the other stations too.Bt the songs and the 1 station is NV got very boring very fast.

 

[VaudevillianVeteran]

Loved this song beforehand, so finding it on the soundtrack was a huge win for me.

 

[Hader]

Jingle Jangle from New Vegas easily. I love that song, it's so addicting.

I've known this song for about as long as I have known of my existence.

Easy win.

Johnny Guitar. Sad tone fits with the whole atmosphere of New Vegas.
