Inkspots - I don't wanna set the world on fire

Any other suggestions?

Willie Nelson / Louis Armstrong - Blue Skies
Louis Armstrong - What A Wonderful World (unoriginal, I know)

Vera Lynn - We'll Meet Again :wink: (end music, perhaps)

We'll Meet Again? Yeah, it'd work, but the nod to Dr. Strangelove is too obvious.

I'm not sure about this, but I think that they wanted to use I don't Wanna Set the World on Fire in FO1, but some sort of legal problem prevented that from working out. Maybe the obstruction has disappeared?

Yes, I know, but that song beats both Maybe and A Kiss to Build a Dream On, combined. Maybe you could hear it playing on a radio somewhere (double reference to Strangelove AND Pulp Fiction :wink: )

You're right.

Either you posted in the wrong thread or you're just not very bright.

How about the Fallout Rap? Never heard of it? Goddamit.
Here's how it goes:

My name is Big Dave and I ride the Wasteland
Why don't you join in, and give me a hand?
Kick some pasty ghoul ass, some Mutie too!
Lets get together and...um...use our tools.

Er, yes.

Never heard of Mack the Knife? Fool you, you're the dunk on here.

Mack the Knife is a very good suggestion, Kash, though I don't know why you put "Why not Black Metal?" after it.

Because Black Metal and Fallout go together like ketchup and strawberries.

How about this "Ink Spots - We Three". I think the fair mood of F3 is more into the rebuilding and conflict of the people living in prewar buildings, and those rebuilding. So somethign that kind of lumbers around on the walking forwards would work pretty well I think.

A really good song is i dont know the title but its on the credits to Blast from the Past and the line that repeats is "Lets just drop the big one now"

Fly me to the moon-Frank Sinatra. There's a lot of better songs that would suit the intro but i can't think of them right now.

Mozart's Requiem - Mvmt. 3

(the same song they used in X-Men 2 when Nightcrawler was beating the shit out of the Secret Service agents, if you saw that movie)

Sure it's in latin, but it sounds very apocalyptic. I also think the second movemnt would work well.

"Desert Skies" Or is it "In God's Country"? It's an awesome song, its on the soundtrack and credits to Three Kings. Kick-ass movie too.
