Oh Billy Dee Williams, you are so annoying. But your radio station has some fun music.

That's Billy Dee! No way.

Not according to IMDB.

Well damn. I have no clue where I read that. But I'm quite sure I read it somewhere that it was him.

Oh well, nope, it's just some dude. They still have some high-powered voice talent, though. Every Fallout game has (Tony Shalhoub in F1, Michael Dorn in F2, and Liam Neeson in F3).

EDIT: Ah, okay. Billy Dee Williams did a voice in C&C 3, not Fallout 3.

Gimme Shelter? London Calling? (sorta)

Not sure what a 40's sounding remake of Gimme Shelter would sound like though. 🙂

Thanks to this thread I have the "corny as Kansas in August" song stuck in my head. (Also, I usually associate Kansas with "wheat" more than "corn", but I suppose "corny as Iowa" doesn't fit the meter as well.)
 
For some reason I can't get most of the radio stations except Enclave, but maybe you have to be closer to the city to get them? Right now I'm wandering around north of Arefu...
 
I wouldn't actually want this in the game because it's already overplayed to football fans, but "Feelin' Kinda Sunday" would work with the game. Or for that matter, any Frank Sinatra song. But I imagine getting the rights to use a Frank Sinatra song would be a lot more complicated and expensive than for old songs that may be in the public domain.

Check out the Puppini Sisters. They do popular songs from different eras in a 40's style.

Edit: Here's Blondie's Heart of Glass, 40's style. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u67BLdnEhOM
