Songs that embody your fallout experience

Post » Sun Mar 06, 2011 10:06 am

I know it's a little random but I just wanted to know if anyone else had non-game music that either reminds them of the game or in-game locations. I have a bad habit of seeing the path to california, remembering Fallout 2, and having Everclear's "Santa Monica" pop into my head. Or having "I shot the sheriff" while strolling through Primm. "Ring of Fire" for some of the wasteland sites (Devil's Gullet). Just wanted to hear your thoughts.

http://bagana.pair.com/voontrag/Bottlecap.swf reminds me of every barter location and I always think "Fallout" when it plays.

http://img261.imageshack.us/img261/2921/sheldonmq5.swf can't not remind me (or perhaps anyone who has ever played any of the games.)

http://img246.imageshack.us/img246/4650/sheldon1hd0.swf always reminds me of Fallout for some reason. :shrug:

Few if any songs (of themselves) remind me of Locations in the Fallout series.

Nirvana's "Plateau" seems to go with New Vegas pretty well, love playing "The Gambler" walking down the strip.

I don't care that it isn't a 50's song, I put it on while playing and have it on repeat along with 5 other awesome Hot Chip songs. :D

Playing F1 i remember listening to Meat Loaf's "objects in the rearview mirror" when i first entered Shady Sands, and being svcked into the game like i was, that song stuck to me.

The same feeling appeared the first time i heard someone in Fallout: New Vegas mentioning Shady Sands.

Makes me think of walking in slow motion into battle with my weapon drawn, down a long empty road.

Samantha Fox's Touch Me - reminds me of blasting a hole through Gizmo in Fallout 1.
It was playing on the radio at the time, I dunno

I thought of this last night, walking back from Novac to Primm, as the sun set:

McKenitt-Skelling

On dusty roads I walked
And over mountains high
Through rivers running deep
Beneath the endless sky
