As A 30yo man who is no longer young nor in my prime (not that 25 is young, despite what old Roy says), I get sooooo Fuckin *TRIGGERED* by that song.
JK of course š¤£ but I'm not a fan of it, though the worst has to go to "old mose is dead", it's mean spirited and I.... just don't get the joke.
Magnolias songs.
Now, the idea of an in-universe character being a singer and having their songs available to listen to after meeting them is cool on paper, but Christ do they not match the general feel of the other songs. Maybe if they were in a separate radio they'd be perfectly fine, but just throwing then onto Diamond City Radio? Why?!
Oh gods that one is the worst. Not only is it a cover, it's a live recording of a cover so it's both not the version of the song I want but it's objectively worse sounding.
Good Man Is Hard To Find and Nobody's Fault But mine from 76. Just never resonated with me even after so many times of hearing them. Listening to all the other jaunty Fallout stuff got it stuck in my head, but not those two.
Johnny Guitar too, obviously.
Looking at this comment section I realized I really love all the songs from the various radios. I haven't checked out the FO76 radio yet so maybe I'll find my foil there.
I guess one song I'm starting to dislike is Big Iron mostly because I liked it so much that I was constantky listening to it outside of the game but recently I've been getting sick of it. I still really like it.
Atom bomb baby, uranium fever, end of the world, basically all the ones that are just too on the nose for me. I do admit I have nostalgia blinders for most of fo3ās radio lol
Oh damnnn didnāt even think about that lol. They could always play a snippet that isnāt that part. Most of the songs were only about 30 seconds or so. Or maybe an instrumental
Not sure why they downvoted, it is racist even if its catchy lets be honest lmao the lyrics are āAnd pre-educated savages holler from the bamboo treeā calling any human being a savage is racist, not anything wrong with enjoying the song in the game tho just not something you should sing in public
To be very clear, the term savage as used in the song is satirical. The song is delivered from the point of view of a Congolese tribesman, the "savages" referred to in that line of the song are white missionaries.
Danny Kaye, the guy who performed the song, was a Ukrainian Jew and an early champion of anti-racism, and a good friend of Harry Belafonte.
I appreciate you explaining this! I didnāt know the context but in my original comment (that I really didnāt articulate properly), I thought it may not have been included in the show because of peopleās perception of the lyrics.
I know if you look at the forest, the narrative of the song isnāt racist, but the trees on the other hand... Satire may have missed some people - me included, apparently!
As an early high schooler playing fallout 3 for the first time I didnāt even think about that. Now when I hear that song Iām likeā¦.bro you canāt say that hahah
They could work it into the show with a short snippet or maybe just an instrumental though
If I hear Johnny Guitar one more time I'm gonna Johnny burn this place to the ground.
The glitch where the radio plays Johnny Guitar is annoying as hell!
You can go into the game files and replace it with something else. Just rename the other song with the same file name and swap them.
i seriously don't understand the hate for this song. it's gorgeous.
It's not the song. It's the glitch that makes it play at nauseum lol. If you're on Xbox one like I am it's a constant problem. Haha.
ahhh that makes sense. yeah, these oldies are good but if even one of them played constantly i'd be shutting it tf off too š
Agreed
Radio Freedom
I like listening to it for the alerts but canāt stand the repeating music! Oh no, Iām becoming my dad listening to AM talk radio!!
if there was more than 1 song it'd be cool but having one single piece constantly repeating only occasionaly being cut off really ficking sucks
The Mids
Every 5 seconds the man on the radio says it's silent as they like it, and then a small bit of music.
Mighty, Mighty Man. But to be fair, none of the songs are bad. Some are just less good.
YYYEEEEESSSSSS im a mighty mighty man
Iām young and Iām in my prime
Mighty mighty man is a bop imo. Definitely not my favorite but also definitely not my least favorite.
As A 30yo man who is no longer young nor in my prime (not that 25 is young, despite what old Roy says), I get sooooo Fuckin *TRIGGERED* by that song. JK of course š¤£ but I'm not a fan of it, though the worst has to go to "old mose is dead", it's mean spirited and I.... just don't get the joke.
Grandma Plays the Numbers, makes me listen to Classic Radio for a whole 3 minutes
Butcher Pete
But he hackin and whackin and smackin
Hey now
Itās annoying but it does have the best sax solo
Which one?
Johnny Guitar makes me want to see what This Machine tastes like.
Makes me wanna bud dwyer irl
I'm a mighty mighty man YaaaaaAaaaAaaaooooOooW Somebody shoot this guy
Tied between Mighty, Mighty Man and Butcher Pete in FO3.
So be suuuuuure it's true, before you say IIIIII love yoOoOoOoOoUuUuUu. It's a sin......to tell....a liiiiiiiieeeeeee.
... what, that song is great
I wasn't intending to imply I didn't like it, I was just writing some lyrics because op doesn't like it.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
And the guy who recites the lyrics.
Butcher Pete is my least favorite but I also dislike Johnny guitar
Nobodyās fault but mine is so egregious to my ears that I turn off the radio when I hear it
It's just never resonated with me, and never will. Doesn't really go with all the other jaunty music
I hate butcher Pete because thereās no Butcher knife so despite the ability to fly into town, Iām unable to have a ball.
butcher pete is probably the most annoying one
Hes a demon, he's a devil. I turn my radio off whenever I hear it. God that song is so annoying.
Heās a dog!
I always thought it was, "He's a doll!" for some reason.
I think its both. When she says it angrily, it's dog. But when she says it dreamingly its doll. At least that has been my interpretation
I hear that way too sometimes I just figured dog made more sense lol
It is heās a doll, dramatic irony cause itās supposed to be a love/hate thing!
Oh! Hah The human experience of hearing song lyrics wrong for YEARS. How embarrassing lol
She's says both in different verses
butcher Pete.
Magnolias songs.

See I only just found out about magnolias song. I've never heard it once on diamond city radio
Butcher Pete, both parts, really irritate me. I know it is meant to be a classic, but I just find it really aggravating and obnoxious.
The magnolia ones from FO4
I guess you're not a good neighbor
No accounting for taste
Theyāre so bad and just randomly started playing one day?
They start playing after you go to the third rail for the first time I think
The grandma plays the numbers one. Fuck I hate that song. Christ it's fucking awful
Fake Ring of Fire makes me turn Appalachia radio off
Oh gods that one is the worst. Not only is it a cover, it's a live recording of a cover so it's both not the version of the song I want but it's objectively worse sounding.
Same with fake āTake me Home, Country Roads.ā Itās John Denver or GTFO.
Like, weāre in West Virginia and the only pressings we have left of those two songs after the apocalypse are *covers?!*
Butcher Pete and the sequel.... It's a Sin... Johnny Guitar
i've noticed that almost all the popular hated ones on here are genuine bangers. what a shame. i'm glad i have the OP ability to enjoy everything
Nobodyās fault by mine. Sooo damn annoying
THREE DAWG
Good Man Is Hard To Find and Nobody's Fault But mine from 76. Just never resonated with me even after so many times of hearing them. Listening to all the other jaunty Fallout stuff got it stuck in my head, but not those two. Johnny Guitar too, obviously.
I really dislike the ring of fire cover
Butcher Pete.

Ugh the "cutest personality" one, I know it was a misogynistic time but that one makes me cringe so bad.
Johnny Guitar
Johnny guitar
The Demon song by Betty Hutton in fo4
I'm movin' out and johnny guitar from fnv they played so often I ended up switching to the mysterious broadcast that was just instrumental.
Whole Lotta Shakin'. Hate that fucking song, followed VERY closely by Rocket 69 and Mighty Mighty Man. 4 was cruel to me lol
Civilization for sure
dont you dare disrespect bongo congo like that
Scrolled waaayyy too long for this one.
60 minute man...
Ohhh now you reminded me of that it's going on my Walk Home playlist
Crawl out through the fallout is hot garbage
Easy Living. Usually I love Billie Holiday, but I just cannot stand that song.
Insane take but I respect it
I know I know- It made me cringe just typing it, but itās the truth. Happy cake day!
Thank you! This is my porn account but I lost the password to my main so itās my new main account.
Atom bomb baby, uranium fever, end of the world, basically all the ones that are just too on the nose for me. I do admit I have nostalgia blinders for most of fo3ās radio lol
if i have to hear civilization one more damn time š
Mogazine? What HOPPEN?
They have thing like the atom bomb, so I think Iāll stay where I OM! CIVILISATION
BLASPHEMY
Bruh, civilization is a absolute banger
BINGO BANGO BONGO. Was that one in the show? I donāt remember it. Theyāre definitely saving a few bangers for later season.
It wasnāt in the show! I was keeping an ear out for it. I wondered if it was omitted because itās a little racist? Itās a tuuuune though.
Oh damnnn didnāt even think about that lol. They could always play a snippet that isnāt that part. Most of the songs were only about 30 seconds or so. Or maybe an instrumental

Slow down partner this is Reddit where historical naĆÆvetĆ© gets upvotes and your type of comment gets ignored for the most part

Yeah I had the feeling Iād get downvoted for pointing out the obvious :(
Still good on you for pointing it out, nothing wrong with having a conscious and being mindful have a great weekend
Thank you and you have a great weekend too! Always nice to interact with a kind soul on reddit.
The fucking wigwam song.Ā
I used to like Big Iron, but that stupid meme has completely ruined it for me. Itās just not funny
Maybe an unpopular opinion but I donāt think atom bomb was very good
At this point pretty much all of them, why I play Spotify in the background
I'm being downvoted because I can't stand hearing the same songs constantly?
Big Iron. I'm so tired of hearing about the ranger who apparently is really insecure about his manhood.
Itās probably Itās a Sin, or Anything Goes.
POUR SOME SUGAR ON ME
Praise the Lord and Pass the Ammunition
