Racial theme songs

Post » Thu May 03, 2012 7:04 pm

If the Elder Scrolls races had, like, theme songs. What do you guys think they'd be?
Like, your favorite race, or all the races, some random race. I don't care just, like, post it.

I honestly wouldn't consider this being a theme in Elsweyr, but I just wanted to post it considering it's played in a Desert.

I know the lyrics to one...

We are the Orcs!
We never eat with forks!
We bite the necks off bottles
Cuz we can't remove the corks!

This is a theme for all the Dark elves inspired by their voice in Oblivion: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=itvJybdcYbI

I'd recommend a theme song for the Dwemer, but any music they would make would likely cause everyone within earshot to zero sum.

So instead, I'll just humbly suggest the http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vykQogqh5Ho.

From the distant warm sands of Orcrest, this is for all the half naked Khajiit traders loading the crates in the caravan carts http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SwiJeyQurRA

How about for a group of twelve Nords warriors with a Redguard amonst them? :wink: I don't care what anybody says, I love that movie. I even have a Nord named Buliwyf as an homage to Vladimir Kulich's character. :biggrin:

It's not really a racial theme, but I always thought Gregorian's cover of http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3sEjSEoq-MU&feature=related would fit the Dark Brotherhood. Or the original AC/DC version, depending on your preference, I suppose. Just replace "Satan" with "Sithis."

Really? I grimace when I think of that song in connection to the Khajiit.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nZggieOGsgo Elsweyr is sort of like a miniaturized Africa and this track suits that idea well IMO.

Mayhap not a theme song, but I could hear something like this being played in the hamlets of High Rock; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IzoNPHNb0h8

Nice find, sounds like it came straight out of a Tavern in Daggerfall. :)

Don't forget the most famous orc song ever: http://youtu.be/YdXQJS3Yv0Y

And of course, for Skyrim there is Black Sabbath's http://youtu.be/mouIulvsKYA.

Somehow, I get the sense that if khajiit lived on modern Earth, they'd be into dubstep...

Many people will disagree but I think that Amon Amarth fits the Nords like no other. The relentless drum beats that symbolize many nordic warriors charging into war, the guitar riffs that cut through like axes on flesh, and the vocals that are a direct parallel to the battle cries and sometimes thu'ums of the Nords.

Songs like
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y96q-Ng3b7U, just replace Valhall with Sovngarde
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2_mqK3hzjvQ, represents the Nord culture, and their desire for warfare and victory to no other end

I know, i specifically said I honestly wouldn't consider it being a theme in Elsweyr, i just wanted an excuse to play it :biggrin:

The theme you suggested does remind me of the desert but not Khajiit at all for some reason :|
we need more of a mix between Sahara desert music and Jungle music as well as being as Beautiful and/or Awesome like all the other Elder scrolls Themes :ohmy:
Jeremy Soule could make it happen :biggrin:

Edit : after listening to it, I can kind of see the Gerudo valley theme being a "Welcome to Elsweyr" type of thing after like traveling there all the way there from Skyrim or somewhere to promote excitement o.o
nothing to be played like in the Title screen or anything though
