The most perfect song for the Fallout 5 trailer.

[Shodan]

I apologise if the title seems misleading at first, but no, there is no Fallout 5 yet and probably won't be until like 2025.

Anyway, I heard this song yesterday (of course, I know the song, but I forgot about it):

I was thinking and honestly, there is no song as perfect as this one for the upcoming Fallout 5 trailer, whenever it comes out.

Does anyone else agree that they should use this song in the trailer or at least on the main radio station in the game?

No. Fallout 5 nuclear war is the opposite of what Louis Armstrong wrote that song for.

That's exactly the point. Did you not notice all the ironic songs in Fallout 3 and 4?

It's one of my favorite songs, and I don't want it ruined by a game company. They can use 2525.

Ruined? I also love it, but how would that ruin it? I would really love to see these great songs appear in the game, especially to describe the wasteland in such an ironic way.

Agreed

A few possibilities:

One Tin Soldier (The Legend of Billy Jack)--Coven

It's the End of the World As We Know It (And I Feel Fine)--REM, which is already an ironic song

The End of the World--Skeeter Davis or Johnny Mathis, either is good

Or, my personal choice:

Heaven Is a Place On Earth--Belinda Carlisle, because it's such a typical peppy 80s song, and for no other reason than the line "In this world we're just beginning to understand the miracle of living" and then BOOOOOM, Fallout 5.

I agree, they're all great songs. However, The End of the World is already in Fallout 4, but it would still be amazing to see it. As about the 80s songs, I think that they should be only in the pre-war scenes because in my opinion, they wouldn't fit so well considering they don't sound like typical 50s songs, although the lyrics fit very well. I know that What a Wonderful World is from 1967, but it sounds just like the 50s songs from Fallout 3 and 4, so it shouldn't be a problem at all.

Oh, I wouldn't want the original version of "Heaven Is a Place On Earth", since it does sound too modern as originally released. However, like "God Only Knows" by the Beach Boys that was redone as a barbershop quartet song in Bioshock Infinite, I could see a retro-sounding jazzy remake that sounded more fitting for the time period.

Anachronisms are allowed if they sound cool. :D
