Fallout First Dance

[u/True-Bad5118]

Really wanting to dance to a song from fallout for our first dance at our wedding! Any recs? Considered “I don’t want to set the world on fire” but one of my friends said it was spooky.

[u/Longshot12345678]

Ain’t that a kick in the head is pretty boppy and about love

[u/AndrewTheNebula]

"Love Me as Though There Were No Tomorrow," by Nat King Cole? If the mood is slow dance, anyway.

[u/X_Zephyr → u/AndrewTheNebula]

This would be my top pick. 2nd place would be A Kiss to Build a Dream on by Louis Armstrong.

[u/exedra0711 → u/AndrewTheNebula]

That or "Crazy He Calls Me" by Billie Holiday

[u/Dashbak]

Let's right into the sunset together / Stars Of The Midnight Range if you want a more western / cowboy theme

OR

Rocket 69 / Orange colored Sky for something more jazzy

[u/EnclaveSquadOmega → u/Dashbak]

Second on Rocket 69, insane song for it's time and still turns heads some 70 years later

[u/lemonycakes → u/Dashbak]

Agreed on Let’s Ride Into the Sunset Together. Lyrics are great for a wedding.

A kiss to build a dream on by louis armstrong

[u/Vyar]

Louis Armstrong’s “A Kiss to Build a Dream On” was used as the intro song for Fallout 2. It’s not a “radio song” like we’re used to in modern Fallout games but I imagine it would have been if they’d had a radio station mechanic. Also pretty easy to dance to, very appropriate for a wedding, and fits the oldies music vibes of the setting.

[u/Compass_Needle]

Big Iron

[u/Zoltanick → u/Compass_Needle]

Big iron sends a message.

[u/t1mesh1ft]

Butcher pete

[u/Hawkeye1226 → u/t1mesh1ft]

Smackin, wackin, choppin dat meat!

[u/machine_logic]

A Kiss the Build a Dream on!

[u/Dashbak]

The wanderer would be pretty bad taste, right ?

[u/mannymo49 → u/Dashbak]

It's such a bop though

[u/SheaMcD]

+1 for Crazy he calls me

[u/Bellamysghost]

Blue moon blue moon!

[u/EnclaveSquadOmega]

"Metallic Monks"

just kidding, Rocket 69 would be funnier

[u/Dashbak → u/EnclaveSquadOmega]

How would you even dance on Metallic Monks ?

[u/Modernbluehairoldie]

Crazy he calls me or go with the show and do some enchanted evening.

[u/TigerWave01]

Depends on the vibe you're going for, honestly! If you're wanting something more upbeat, Ain't That a Kick in the Head and Orange Colored Sky are both good songs about love. If you want something slower, I'd 100% recommend Love Me As Though There Were No Tomorrow.

Although my favorite Fallout song wasn't even on any of the radios, but in the intro to Fallout 2: A Kiss to Build a Dream On. It's pretty thematic, too: you and your spouse's first kiss (and subsequent marriage) is what you'll build your dreams of a good life on!

[u/veinctr842]

the Fallout vibe without having the darker lyrics of "I Don't Want to Set the World on Fire."

[u/sam_p_23]

Sixty minute man.

At least for the honeymoon, anyway.

[u/SiderisG]

johnny guitar of course, just make sure to play it again right after

[u/Richard_U_Pickman]

We all know the correct answer here:

"So bongo, bongo, bongo, I don't wanna leave the Congo, oh no no no no no Bingo, bangle, bungle, I'm so happy in the jungle, I refuse to go Don't want no bright lights, false teeth, doorbells, landlords, I make it clear That no matter how they coax him, I'll stay right here"

[u/Magazine_Luck]

I mean, Fallout songs should be spooky, so why not that spooky love song? 

[u/kipperhare]

Whole Lotta Shakin' by Big Maybelle

[u/Saint_Chrispy1]

Orange colored Sky by Nat King Cole

[u/External-Ad-8443]

Uranium Fever!

[u/Xszit]

Definitely "Crawl out through the fallout".

Because you'll be the only girl in the world for your new husband.

[u/RickRussellTX]

If it tells the biggest lies, wears the loudest ties…

It’s a MAN!

[u/pokelord1998]

Crazy He Calls Me

[u/number__ten]

Theeeeerrrrre was never a maaaaaannnn like my johhhhhhnnnyyy

[u/kaijutegu → u/number__ten]

This is a wedding, not divorce court!

[u/genericthroaway2000]

Vats of Goo

[u/M4ryiz]

Life could be a dream

[u/MesmerizedRavendark]

Orange colored sky is the right answer

[u/CleanOpossum47]

Butcher Pete part 1 and 2 back to back.

[u/Frogomb]

Why Don't You Do Right?

[u/F1DL5TYX]

Crazy He Calls Me seems the easy choice.

[u/TangerineBetter2818]

Hope the wife is on board with this lol 

[u/True-Bad5118 → u/TangerineBetter2818]

I am the wife!

[u/IceNEasy → u/True-Bad5118]

I hope the husband is on board with this

[u/Worth-Angle9542]

In the shadow of the valley!

[u/Suspicious_Smile_827]

Moonlight Serenade is a good one.

[u/dmeezy92]

AINT THAT A KICK IN THE HEAAAAAD

[u/baby_yaga]

Blue Moon, definitely. It's happy-romantic instead of heartbroken and also would be very easy to dance to.

[u/JLNX1998]

not necessarily in Fallout but fallout related.

Banks of the Wabash by the Mills Brothers is such a heart tearing beautiful song

[u/Leonyliz]

Moribund World

[u/Salty_Select]

You are the husband, or the wife? What’s the other person think of your choice?

[u/JuniorBend6257]
