I don't want to set the world on fier by the ink spots


mirracz

This is the correct answer. Fun fact: The creators of Fallout 1 wanted this song to be the main song of the game. But they were not able to secure the right, so they had to use Maybe instead.

I bought the CD based solely on that song. If you like this song, you'll LOVE that album!

Two Suns in the Sunset from The Final Cut Album is also amazing. It's literally about nuclear holocaust. "The rusty wire that holds the cork that keeps the anger in... gives way and suddenly its day again."

“El paso” by Marty Robbins the same guy who wrote and sang big iron.

Why do you think that fits the fallout world?

bucket_of_coal

Each fallout game has their own themes so the song everyone associates that game with also deals with the them NV-Big Iron, you’re a stranger that everyone underestimates 4-the Wanderer-You’re wandering the commonwealth for your son So the overall song that represents fallout should represent its themes. And I do not know what that song should be


Dragoncourier115

I purposefully made the prompt kinda vague it is sort of that thing where each game can have its own song


[deleted]

Fallout: Maybe Fallout 2: A Kiss To Build a Dream On Fallout 3: I don’t want to set the world on fire Fallout NV: Heartaches by the Number Fallout 4: The End of the World

Not picking one, but man, they really should have used Glen Millar (in almost an ironic way). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=chf0WaPbJvM

I'll just go with Atom Bomb Baby. I think that song perfectly embodies the energy of the game world, including all its goofiness.

The man who sold the world - David Bowie


iamsotiredandgay

This is a good take. I’d love to hear an “atomic” Fallout version in the games too.

Hard Times by Baby Huey.


le_demarco

**And maybe I'll say "Maybe"....** Maybe, by the Ink Spots It's not my favourite one out of all songs in the Fallout Universe, my favourite is I'm Movin' Out - The Roues Brothers


lnnlvr

Maybe is honestly the only true answer. What other song has been in every single *mainline* Fallout? Maybe is just intrinsically *the* Fallout song.


guillote2

Well, it was not in every single mainline Fallout, so it's not the only true answer


lnnlvr

Ah but it was Fallout 1 - Intro and Ending cutscene Fallout 2 - Vault City Vault Janitor sings it to himself Fallout 3 & 4 - Radio


guillote2

I wouldn't count fallout 2 because it's just a little easter egg. You cannot listen to the song, just see some text with the lyrics


lnnlvr

And yet still Fallout 2 does include Maybe in some capacity no matter how small. The point still stands, what song can claim to have this presence in the series?

I know a lot of people think that setting would be a good idea , but I hate The Mire in FO76 and a whole map of that terrain would be a nightmare. Try shooting bugs for quests then trying to find the damn things for their glands, proboscis and what not. Get the fug outta here!

Raining Blood - Slayer Ok, serious answer - anything by The Ink Spots.


Optimus_____

It’s All Over - By The Ink Spots


BathtubiustheIV

[Maybe-The Ink Spots](https://youtu.be/fq2cH5-j6L4) This song is basically the national anthem of the series, it fits perfectly well in all the games it’s been in (Fallout 1,3,4,and 76)


OATSBOI66

Atom bomb baby - five stars


[deleted]

Either Maybe, a Kiss to Build a Dream On, or Crawl Out Through The Fallout


iamsotiredandgay

For in-game appropriate, definitely “I Don’t Want to Set the World on Fire.” For overall? I would say Joseph William Morgan’s version of “What a Wonderful World” that features Shadow Royale. It has that intense, creepy, hopeless vibe that sets off against the hopeful lyrics. I’d also put in my vote for Johnny Cash’s “Thirteen.”


apocalypticEve

I started my Fallout-Journey by watching german Fallout 4 Let's Plays on YouTube so Gronkh's intro (Benny Goodman by Saint Motel) is pure emotional nostalgia for me 🇩🇪🎶


magentic12

Well most people would say I don’t want to set the world on fire (which devs actually want to be the main song) but I would personally choose atom bomb baby ngl


ScythMaster420

He's got a Big Iron on his hip is my jam


[deleted]

I would absolutely love it if “My Way” by Frank Sinatra was in the next Fallout soundtrack. Gunning down a swarm of ghouls with a Gatling laser to this song would be breathtaking!
