I am in, for Wasteland 2 please.

My favorite tracks would be these. All soundtracks must be looped in order to be enjoyable:

1. Chaos Engine, DOS release, Mercenary selection music: https://youtu.be/_G1nZlmySL0?t=2m50s
I have no particular idea why. This track is simply addictive :)

2. Arnie 2, DOS main menu: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WLFn1BrkQsg
Another kick-ass, addictive theme, that I can listen for hours :)

3. X-Com 1 Interceptor Music: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WOdRt_c8nfY
Simply kick ass music. You can compare this to UFO Aftermath, but original is still better: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S_8dTqiWPHg

4. Blake Stone Aliens of Gold, Lab track: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=biXJrEJms5M
This is by far the most atmospheric track from my childhood. Mostly because the place where its played is a lab, full of dead on the tables, with showers in the ceiling that drop blood drops....

5. Mortal Kombat 1 Dos, the part I consider really worth playing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mufIf0t9WVo
With moderately cheating AI and player depending on timing to defeat it - on VERY HARD of course, this is music I had to listen defeat after defeat.

6. One Must Fall 2097 theme: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UvlVaQl7kEk
Whilst OMF is slightly below MK1 in terms on gameplay, it had extreme amount of features, including very well hidden finishing moves as well as hidden special fighters. And the track really sticks to the mind.

7. Radix Beyond the Void main theme: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ytmXLrKisbA and E3M1 theme: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WVM3aP8O-QI
The theme is simply beautiful, where E3M1 is really good when you are up to something challenging. Nothing beats the kick.

8. Jets and Guns + Tyrian themes. Although they are pretty different in music styles, they are on par in terms to awesomeness: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tmDcDu8FCsw and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9YcczswPHgc

9. Doom E2M8: www.youtube.com/watch?v=4iIrg4DM078
I played it when I was 13. It was midnight outside when I played it, so it pretty caught in my mind. :)
Also, fairly nice are Icon of Sin (Doom 2 MAP 30): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zJ6c98nmv9U
As well as "New Icon of Sin" music by author of Brutal Doom Sergant Mark IV, - its around 0:30 (its some track from Final Doom, if I am correct, actually) : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NWH_d7oMs-s

10. Jazz Jackrabbit - all unbeatable:
Bonus theme: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UKXztzialAo
Medivo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pb8WbGIT57E
Battleships: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ie7cz0y1ZEg
Technoir: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aWLuqafkZ-Q

Bonus (!!!):

Probably I still missed few... : /

Thanks for the submissions! I've been trying to come up with a list myself, and I'm just going to stop before it gets out of hand for the time being. I'm about to start playing some of the links you guys & gals have posted through my stereo while I read a bit. Having a very lazy day. :)

Okay, I decided to go with a list of songs that remind me of defining moments in my life (or some of my favorite memories.) Most of the stories behind the memories would take too long to explain, especially by someone unable to summarize like myself. I've left notes by some of them and will probably add more later.

Syd Barrett - "Dark Globe" (one of the first songs I fell in love with... a friend of my sister's played me this album when I was eleven and I've adored it ever since)

Nick Drake - "Time Has Told Me" (I posted this one in the conversational free-for-all thread recently, but it was my wedding song, so it's pretty much gotta go on this list. This has been one of my favorite artists for most of my life, and this particular song is quite close to my heart and reminds me of my wedding day.)

Neutral Milk Hotel - "Oh Comely" (they were the last band I saw at a wonderful and tiny local place I considered a second home that closed up years ago... I also got to see them again quite recently with some dear friends, and it was one of my favorite nights in a long time.)

David Bowie - "Conversation Piece" (This was on a mix tape I played like mad one Summer when I had a seasonal Greyhound Bus pass. Unlimited travel throughout the continental US for the Summer meant lots of trips to wherever-looks-interesting-at-the-moment, often just to have a lunch or walk around exploring for an hour or two and then take the next available bus back home. There was a comfort to being on a Greyhound with my headphones on, having little idea of where I was headed.)

Mahogany - "Optimism" (reminds me of a fantastic road trip to nowhere-in-particular... in fact, I can't quite recall where I ended up, I just remember that day in the car, and it was pretty close to perfect.)

Dirty Three - "Hope" (reminds me of an old friend I miss dearly)

The Mountain Goats - "No Children" (My wife and I used to sing this at the top of our lungs while driving down the highway... seemed like an amusing way to celebrate being newly married. Plus, listening to this guy at all just makes me think of our wedding day, as we'd actually arranged to have him play our wedding. The songwriter/lead singer is just amazingly nice and happily agreed to do it, but we had to change the date of the wedding at the last minute, and the new date happened while he was on tour. So close!

Built To Spill - Carry the Zero (Too complicated to explain, but this song had a hand in bringing my wife and I together. In fact, without this song, we likely wouldn't have met.)

Low - "Over the Ocean" (Shortly before moving away from my homewown, a good friend--who was also moving even farther away--and I took a path from the beach that led into some dunes that went on for miles. It was officially part of a state park, and it was a gorgeous place to go. It was past midnight and we'd been swimming in the ocean and didn't feel like driving, so we left everything in her car except for a tiny pink boombox, a couple mix tapes and a pillow she had on the floor of the back seat. Not the pinnacle of comfort, but we had a great night of listening to music and crickets, watching the moon and looking out upon the ocean. We both thought it was amusingly appropriate that this song was first to play when we decided to put a cassette on.)

The Mummies - "Stronger Than Dirt" (you'll get nothing out of me about this one. Just good memories.)

Lady Lamb The Beekeeper - "You Are The Apple" (reminds me of the road trip my wife and I just took to the mountains earlier this year for our 13th anniversary, and of exploring the tiny little town near our cabin.)

Rodan - "The Everyday World of Bodies" (Makes me think of having music playing on the stereo in a loft a friend and I shared some years back... It wasn't a residential area, and all the businesses were closed by 6pm or so, so at night we could freely play music loudly, open all the windows and then climb onto the roof to look out over the nearby park.)

There's a 'particular gentlemanly Viking' here? Surely not!

Great idea, akh. Now to untangle all of that music in my head...

Machinae Supremacy kick ass :-D

Not in, but thanks for the nice giveaway, akhliber! +1

In for the $5.99 please!

Switchfoot - Dark Horses
Note: in the interest of diversity I won't put any more Switchfoot songs on here, but their album Vice Verses is my favourite of all time.

Needtobreathe - The Reckoning

Anberlin - We Are Destroyer

Imagine Dragons - Radioactive
If you haven't heard this, shame on you.

Paper Route - Letting You Let Go

Those are my top favourites, also of note:

Foster The People - Best Friend

12 Stones - World So Cold

tobyMac - This Is Not a Test

Lecrae - Nuthin'

And just because,
Weird Al - Word Crimes

And one bonus I just thought of, but which I don't want to replace anything else.
twenty one pilots - Stressed Out

Awesome giveaway, and thank you so much Akh! +1s to you! I'll be in for the 5.99 game, if this counts :-)

Here is mine... My Top 10 songs from my top 10 favourite movies.
So... the list is actually my 10 favourite movies in order, and I picked my favourite song from each one :-p

10 - Norman Greenbaum - Spirit in the Sky
From the movie Contact. It only plays for about 11 seconds in the movie, but that is long enough for me to include this awesome song :-)

9 - George Thorogood and the Destroyers - Bad to the Bone
From Terminator 2: Judgment Day. A perfect way to introduce the Terminator in his bad new outfit :-)
(Clip from the movie)

8 - James Horner with Charlotte Church - All Love Can Be
From A Beautiful Mind. I guess this could be considered part of the score, but the movie didn't have any actual "songs" :-p ... still, this might be my favourite movie soundtrack of all time, from my all-time favourite composer.

7 - Sonny and Cher - I got You Babe
From Groundhog Day. Of course :-) You can't think of Groundhog Day without thinking of this song.
(Clip from the movie)

6 - Circus of Power - Machine
Played at the beginning of the movie The 'Burbs, when one of the neighbors inserts this cassette tape :-p

5 - Frederick Crouch and Marion Crawford - Kathleen Mavourneen
Featured in the movie Gettysburg. Also, the only real "song" from the movie, if I recall correctly.

4 - Smokey Robinson & The Miracles - The Tracks of My Tears
Featured in Platoon. The actors actually got stoned to film this scene of them singing :-p
(Clip from the movie)

3 - Brian Wilson - Love and Mercy
Featured in Orange County. Was debating between this or "Lay Down Burden" by Brian Wilson (also in the movie.) Both awesome songs.

2 - Weird Al - UHF
From (you guessed it) UHF. Can't go wrong with Mr Al, who in my opinion, is just as great at parodying movies as he is with music :-)

1 - Geto Boys - Damn It Feels Good To Be A Gangsta
Featured in the movie Office Space. Because everyone wants to be like Peter Gibbons when they see this scene :-p ... this song gets stuck in my head about once every 3.2 weeks.
(Clip from the movie)

Indeed. One of the pop tracks Mikael Wills didn't , or couldn't make any better.

Oh and thanks, I enjoyed watching the music video again.

I'm in (for a $5.99 game) with a list of cover's that I like (couldn't find a theme for the songs I wanted to share, so I tried to focus on covers)

#1) first and foremost a cover I love very very much (even more than the original I guess):

Patti Smith - Smells Like Teen Spirit

#2) this one is also one of my all time favorite songs - shows how beautiful Slayer songs can be ;)
Love pretty much all of their songs, but this is by far my favourite:

Hellsongs - Seasons In The Abyss

#3) This one I loved and listened to for years on end before even discovering it wasn't the original ;)

Maximum Kouette - Out Of Time Man

#4) Nice Depeche mode Cover - makes me wanna try it ;P

Nouvelle Vague - Master And Servant

#5) Well there I actually think the original is way better, but kudos for Cash to cover such a great song of the Nine Inch Nails:

Johnny Cash - Hurt

#6) Next one is really special to me from my childhood. Gotta love the idea of covering metallica on four cellos! It's just grand, listened to these songs alot more than to the originals, but the later stuff with drums and singing and all that, I don't care about very much anymore. The first album, though: Bliss!

Apocalyptica - Fade to Black

#7) That one I like very much because it was played very often in the disco I went to when I was small, all the men on the dancefloor (including me) crying and begging Jolene not to take away their man, it was just grand :D

The White Stripes - Jolene

#8) This is a great song and my first encounter to the D O Double G

Ween - Gin & juice

#9) Another one I like, though it's the only song of the band I know. But since I've been very much into Franz Ferdinand, that was enough to get me ;)

Scissor Sisters - Take Me Out

#10) Last but not least - A cover I don't even know the original to, but that's been with me for decades now:

Tocotronic - racist friend

Bonus: Couldn't find a video/audio link to it but this is also a great Rage Against The Machine cover: Mambo Kurt - Bombtrack

Also that Richard Cheese and that Paul Anka do make some great covers ;)

IMA SPIRITUAL LYRICAL MIRACLE INDIVIDUAL LYRICAL SPIRITUAL MIRACLE INDIVIDUAL

...Not in +1.1

Thanks for the opportunity, akhliber ! I love the format! I'd like to be in for a chance at the 5.99$ worth of games. I'm not sure how much I want to talk about the songs, though, I want the songs to "speak for themselves." Since it is a mixtape I did try to put them in a progressive order that works well for the ears. My 10 songs, the context is :

*songs that are PHENOMENAL that you should be listened to and known*

- Primus - Frizzle Fry

- Leonard Cohen - Waiting for the Miracle

- Loreena McKennitt - They Mystic's Dream )(first song that will play on the link so don't worry about it being full album)

- Judy Collins - Send in the Clowns

- Iced Earth - A Question of Heaven

- That 1 Guy - The Moon is Disgusting (It's Made of Cheese) - don't let the weird title put you off. This is a 1-man band and he created his own instrument and does all of this stuff that is quite magical.

- Therion - Via Nocturna

- Dream Theater - The Dance of Eternity

- Nick Cave and the Badf Seeds - Darker With the Day

- Max Bruch's Violin Concert #1 in Gm first movement, unfortunately they don't have my favorite recording of this on youtube that I could find (I should upload it, I suppose), but this one is quite excellent anyway.

ENJOY!

If I'm allowed, then I'm in for "Wasteland 2".
And here's my list:
- Ampere - My Hands Are Shaking My Mind Is Made Up. Ampere is just one of my most favorite bands, and the guitar riff in this song is like crazy racing tram.
- Circle Takes the Square - A Crater to Cough In. Almost somnambulant melody, followed by the wall of loudness. Those words woven into an intricate pattern. "Perfectly imperfect, like a storm."
- Parrhesia - VII. "It was always darkest before the dawn," she says, "but now here is the sun." - this part is truly fantastic.
- Transistor Transistor - A Sinking Ship Full of Optimists. Pure despair. Also, the upright bass solo might make those who laugh at bass-guitarists change their mind.
- Indian Summer - Angry Son. Just ideal.
- Frodus - Yoncopin. I don't know why, but this song simply took my heart the first time I listened to it and didn't return.
- Peu Être - Se Battre. I just love hardcore and I love français.
- Raein - Tigersuit. Classic.
- Louise Cyphre - Quadratur Des Zirkels. I really like it's rhythm.
- Coma Regalia - It Actually Is Rocket Science. I just like it, don't ask why.
- Moss Icon - As Afterwards the Words Still Ring. Great deep lyrics, catchy music.
- City of Caterpillar - And You're Wondering How a Top Floor Could Replace Heaven. Wow. Just wow.
- I Would Set Myself on Fire for You - The First Word That Comes to Mind. That viola...
P. S.: I hope, I didn't insult anyone's sense of beauty.

Very nice giveaway, akhliber! Thanks!

Unfortunately I don't have the time right now to make my top10 of all times, but some of these songs would definitely be on that list.
Let's call this mix "Top10 off the top of my head gathered in 15min". :D
The approach I taken was to represent some of my favorite bands by a favorite song they perform and also some songs that have very strong influence on me.

U2 - With or without you
In my opinion this is The Godfather of songs, if I would have to pick one song to call the best ever made, it would be this one.

No Doubt - Don't speak
This used to be my favorite song, once I was listening to it for 3 hours on repeat and it didn't bore me one bit.

The Offspring - Slim Pickens does the right thing and rides the bomb to hell
The Offspring is my favorite band of all times, and this is my favorite song of theirs, funny things, I'm listening to them from the 5th grade of elementary school (which was some 16 years ago), and my favorite song is something they made couple of years ago. I hope I'll get the chance to hear them live one day.

Rammstein - Sonne
7th grade of elementary school brought Rammstein in my life, and it's still here. Spent last "dime" I had to go to their concert when they were in Belgrade first time.

Hladno Pivo - Trening za umiranje
Hladno Pivo is my favorite band from region where I live (they are from neighbouring Croatia), their concerts are my favorite ones and I wish I could attend one every 6 months.
This song speaks to my "inner evil" which helps my defense system not letting anyone fuck with me.

Crvena Jabuka& Kemal Monteno - Nekako s proljeća
This song reminds me on my view of life & friendship. Used to be my favorite regional song before I heard of Hladno Pivo.

Hurts - Somebody to die for
Hurts absolutely blown me away with their music, they become one of my favorite bands practically over night. I went to Exit festival last year for the first time solely because they were one of the performers.
This song reminds me about how I treat women.

Eric Clapton - Layla(Unplugged)
One of those songs I could listen over and over again, thank god Eric made this unplugged version.

Secret Garden - Nocturne
I'm a huge fan of Eurovision. Although I stopped actively following it 2 years ago, I listened to every song the appeared on Eurovision in 1956-2013 period. This one is the best.

S.A.R.S. - Perspektiva
All my life I live in a fucked up country. And this song is about how fucked up things are around here, but in a cheerful way. It should be national anthem if you ask me.

In for a $5.99 GOG game.
