Songs that suit Vice City

Recommended Posts

After playing VC for all these years since it came out I'm getting a bit bored of the soundtrack.

I want to put some custom MP3 into game, but... most track just don't preserve VC feel and don't suit it at all.

 

What songs would you suggest to put in VC's MP3 Player? (preferably from the 80s)

 

So far I've got only Harold Faltermeyer - Axel F and Billy Idol - Rebel Yell.

Push It To The Limit (Scarface) - Paul Engemann

 

Push it to the limit

Walk along the razor's edge

but don't look down, just keep your head

and you'll be finished

 

Open up the limit

past the point of no return

You've reached the top but still you gotta learn

how to keep it

 

Hit the wheel and double the stakes

throttle wide open like a bat out of hell

and you crash the gates

(crash the gates)

 

Going for the back of beyond

Nothing gonna stop you

there's nothing that strong

So close now you're nearly at the brink

so, push it

 

(Ooo yeah)

 

Welcome to the limit

(The limit)

Take it maybe one step more

The power game's still playing so

you better win it

 

Push it to the limit

(The limit)

With no one left to stand in your way

you might get careless, but you'll never be safe

while you still feel it

 

Welcome to the limit

(The limit)

Standing on the razor's edge

don't look down just keep your head

and you'll be finished

 

Welcome to the limit

(The limit)

(The limit)

(The limit)

(The limit)

 

Push it to the limit

(The limit)

(The limit)

(The limit)

(The limit)

 

(The limit)

(The limit)

(The limit)

(The limit)

 

Push it to the limit

(The limit)

(The limit)

(The limit)

(The limit)

 

Makes sense, this song is from the movie Scarface, a movie where R* got alot of inspiration for VC from.

Metallica - Master of Puppets or Ride the Lightning albums, pick just about any song and it will fit somewhere into VROCK along the lines of Slayer and Megadeth already in there (back in 1986 Pantera were a practically unheard of hair metal band, although they still didn't sound too bad even with the screaming Terry Glaze vocals).

Pretty much a mix of 80's Pop, New Wave and Rock. Not sure why everyone's recommending songs from the Scarface soundtrack, though. I think there's a lot more better 80's songs out there.

Good point Tyla, But Scareface is related in some ways to Vice City, and the songs on the movie were absaloutly amazing to be honest.

If you want to get an idea for some 80's songs, search the I-Tunes store's "I-Tunes Essentials" section-it allows you to browse the top songs by year, so you can go through each year-from 1980 to 1989 and pick out the songs you like best.

 

For example, you can select 1984(VCS's setting), or 1986(the year of VC's setting), or maybe 1982, or 1985, etc. and get a list of the top songs from the given year you choose.
