Fallout/Awesome Music

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • The one that started it all: "Maybe" by the Ink Spots.
  • Just about every song on the Fallout3 soundtrack could be counted as Crowning Music of Awesome, but special mention goes to "I Don't Want to Set the World on Fire," especially if you take its lyrics and apply them to the events of the game.
    • Many of the songs from Fallout3 are deliciously ironic. "Let's Go Sunning" comes to mind.
  • From New Vegas: Blue Moon. That is all.
  • And for sheer Ear Worm-itude, Butcher Pete. Which is now stuck in your head and will be for the next fifteen hours. You're welcome.
    • Also notable for getting stuck in your head and refusing to leave: "Bongo, bongo, bongo, I don't wanna leave the Congo, oh no no no no..."
    • Fallout: New Vegas is not without its Ear Worms. See: Jingle Jangle Jingle, Something's Gotta Give, and Ain't That A Kick In the Head
      • Not to mention Big Iron. If ever there were a song to make headshots by, this is it.
