K-DST:

- Paris - "The Dayz of Old"

- Paris - "Thinka 'Bout It"

[Socalkev 64]

[hasidichomeboy 1,046]

 

[SaintsAndreas 73]

Radio X should've had Nirvana, Smashing Pumpkins, Metallica, Pearl Jam, Ministry, Primus, and White Zombie

[hasidichomeboy 1,046]

 

 

This would've been so good in the game. Especially during the early Los Santos missions.

[Homemade Dynamite 4,032]

[nickvick197 25]

Here's a few songs I would add on the list

 

Radio Los Santos:

 

DJ Quik - Tonite

Ice-T - OG Original Gangster

Ice Cube - Wicked

MC Ren - Final Frontier

Del Tha Funkee Homosapien - Sleepin on My Couch

Spice 1 - In My Neighborhood

Paris - The Devil Made Me Do It

The Pharcyde - Passin Me By

2pac - Trapped

WC & the Maad Circle

 

 

Playback FM:

 

EPMD - Crossover

Redman - Time 4 Sum Akshion

Naughty by Nature - Everything's Gonna Be Alright

Eric B & Rakim - Don't Sweat the Technique

 

CSR:

 

TLC - Baby Baby Baby

Mary J Blige - Love No Limit

Bobby Brown - Humping Around

 

 

 

That's about all I could think of as of right now.

[chefboyarmeme 3]

Radio X could've been even more perfect with some Nirvana, RHCP, and Sublime

[GroovyGrove 4]

Tupac - California Love

[Marcus497 1]

I too think that Redman, Naughty by Nature, EPMD, A Tribe Called Quest, and Leaders of the New School should've been in Playback FM. Also, Radio X should've had Nirvana and Pearl Jam too. I felt the radio stations were incomplete.

[Jeansowaty 4,412]

I finished up my remake of SF-UR. I hate its soft sound. It needs some more brutality into it. This is actually a mix I got for a 1993 storyline so if some songs are newer than 1992, sorry. It's also made for two DJ's - one that plays the old soft house style and the other has a more agressive techno sound.

 

Jesse Saunders - On and On

Neon - Don't Mess With This Beat

Kariya - Let Me Love You

Adeva - Respect

Sandee - Notice Me

Phuture - Acid Tracks

Adonis - Lost in The Sound

Jungle Brothers - I'll House You

LFO - LFO

Lenny Dee and Caspar Pound - The 'Motherf*ckin' Beast

Orbital - Satan

Lords of Acid - Hey Ho! (instrumental mix)

Absurd - Brain (The Pure Techno Bassdrum Mxxx)

Rhythim is Rhythim - Strings of Life

Inner City - Big Fun

Andromeda - Trip to Space

Inner City - Pennies From Heaven (Reese Dream-A-Lot Mix)

Proteus - Fantasia

Lhasa - The Attic

Reese - Just Want Another Chance

[Homemade Dynamite 4,032]

There should've been a station that played pop music from that era. IvanGTA1997 suggested a Flash FM West station. Here's what I would have put:

 

Amy Grant - Baby Baby

Bryan Adams - Thought I Died and Gone to Heaven

Color Me Badd - I Wanna Sex You Up

The Cure - Friday, I'm In Love

EMF - Unbelievable

Extreme - More than Words

Fine Young Cannibals - She Drives Me Crazy

Jade - I Wanna Love You

Mariah Carey - Make It Happen

Natural Selection - Do Anything

New Kids On the Block - Step by Step

Paula Abdul - Straight Up

Whitney Houston - I Belong to You

Wilson Phillips - You're In Love

I'm actually surprised R* didn't put a Nirvana song in Radio X considering that Nirvana was responsible for the whole grunge and alternative rock scene in 1991-1994.

[Videogames888 41]

Like other's said,nirvana would've been perfect for Radio X,K-DST could've used some queen and The Eagles, another Tom Petty song like "Free Fallin" or "I won't back down". " Baby got Back" would've been perfect for Playback.

When considering songs Rockstar put into GTA San Andreas, do not forget they are Not Free.

Rockstar has to pay for use.

And as some of you have now found out they gave up License to many of the Songs, so were required to remove them from Downloaded games and the other newly published versions.

[Two And Three 117]

EDIT: << new Topic, merged into Existing top. >>

This type of thing has already been done by other people, but not for San Andreas ( from what I know).
So what songs do think should have been added on any of the radio stations in Gta San Andreas.
The story of Gta San Andreas happened in the early 90s ( I think its 1992 to be exact), so please do not write anything past that year. Also if you want you can make your own station for a specific genre( that was not covered in the game), for example I would have liked it if they had an Industrial Metal station in the game.

Here are some songs, that I would have liked to see in the game.

Radio X
Wish by Nine Inch Nails
A Small Victory by Faith No More
Prove You Wrong by Prong
Gratitude by The Beastie Boys
Man On The Moon by REM
Rooster by Alice In Chains


K-DST

Hysteria by Def Leppard
Killer Queen by Queen
Ziggy Stardust by David Bowie

Edited June 1, 2016 by Two And Three

There could of been better N.W.A songs

[Semtex tk 8]

Tupac - California Love

That song is from 1996 and the game is 1992 Edited June 21, 2016 by Semtex tk

Isn't that song from 1993 though?Holy sh*t, after checking on Google... it turns out it came out on January 1st 1993 of all days 😟 You're right. f*ck! Mehhh 'It Was A Good Day' by Ice Cube came out in 1993 and was featured in SA anyway so 😛 It can be allowed I reckon.

 

Off-topic: I saw Ice Cube last weekend at a festival in my home country of England. He was so dope live, like his energy and voice was the same as it ever was. As opposed to Busta Rhymes who was also performing at the festival, who looked bloated and constipated as f*ck 😂

IMO, both tracks would fit nicely on this station. I think "Original Sin" goes rather nicely with the Strip at night in Las Venturas.

[Homemade Dynamite 4,032]

Radio X is timeless, but could've used more songs. I would've added the following to the existing roster of songs.

 

 

 

Anthrax & Public Enemy - Bring the Noise (1991)

(1991)

(1992)

(1989)

(1991)

(1992)

(1991)

(1992)

Red Hot Chilli Peppers - If You Have to Ask (1991)

(1991)

(1989)

(1992)

(1992)

[Two And Three 117]

EDIT: << It is not necessary to quote... Using the "Like This" feature would be enough >> {LW.

It would have been nice to see Tool, Anthrax, Kate Bush, and Radiohead. I also would have liked to see(more) Faith No More, Beastie Boys, Nine Inch Nails, and The Melvins on Radio X. Edited June 25, 2016 by lil weasel
