Video-game songs?Date: June 6, 2013 by Eric S Betthauser  Views: 317
Here's a theme: video games. Yes, I'm looking for good songs (preferably newly-written ones) from/about video games. Here's what I've got so far:
Baba yetu (and others) by Christopher Tin
The Mario Brothers theme Legend of Zelda "Korobeiniki" from Tetris "Pac-Man Fever" (I know that there used to be an SATB arrangement) Maybe some of the songs from Bastion
I know that there are dozens more, but I feel like many of them would be ineffective out of context--unless they were REALLY well known (like Mario).
Thanks for the help. Replies (7): Threaded | Chronological

Are you thinking already arranged for choir or just songs to arrange? If so, then Still Alive from Portal II is excellent and has great potential.

"Still Alive", the theme song from Portal, has gone rather viral over the past few years. There are numerous cover versions on YouTube.

I bought the song book of World of Warcraft music so you might give that a try.

The themes from Skyrim and Halo are both actually written for choir. Couldn't do better than those, in my opinion. You can hear them both on YouTube easily.
Neuther is available commercially, so you'd have to deal with that and the copyright issues. But you can find scores for both.
