Songs in PC Games | Please contribute your knowledge.

Hello,

Some time now, I was searching to find which PC games include Music Songs in their content. 

No such list exists either on youtube or anywhere in web as far as I know.

Therefore, I would like to start to "gather" knowledge which PC games include Music songs during in their content.

Anyone can publish freely that list.

I am starting here: 

FULL THROTTLE --- Gone Jackals - Legacy

Phantasmagoria --- Consumite Furore" by Mark Seibert

7th Guest ---- The Fat Man and Team Fat

Tex's Murphy --- Pandora's Directive - Tex's Lament - Richie Havens  | Body and Soul - Nicole Tindall

Runaway --- Liquor - Vera Dominguez

Outcast --- "you die" - Lennie Moore - Performed by Moscow Symphony Orchestra and Choir

Freddy Pharkas --- Freddy Pharkas song -  Josh Mandel

Rent A Hero ----- Rent A Hero song - Annalene Rahbari, Nana Walzer

Final Fantasy VIII ---- Eyes On Me - Faye Wong

If you know some other PC GAME songs, please contribute your knowledge! 

Thanks very much.

Sincerely,

Hello, an addition

Gabriel Knight 2   ---- OPERA - Music composed by Robert Holmes.

May I ask what your goal is or what's inspired you? There may be an even more suitable forum or site out there.

Hello LotBlind,

I was inspired by music and by songs in PC games.

I was searching for a such list.

No such list exists as far as I know.

Some websites have published gamecredits.

However, no "standard" rules exists in order to "extract" such information.

On the other hand, soundtracks can be only "music" without song.

Therefore, I think that a such list may be useful for future generations.

Thanks for your interest.

If you know even a more proper place to publish and extend such list, please tell me! 

I will be much grateful.

Thank you.

Sincerely,

Elias Tsolis

http://www.rpgamers.net/lyrics/ - probably a few PC titles in there. Searching for lyrics is the hack you're looking for.

MGS 3 also has a song called Snake Eater
Redneck Rampage and its add-ons (at least the "Rides Again") one came with brilliant sountracks with mostly songs on them
Shadow Warrior: Lo Wang's rap, played in the credits

Mafia had a cover of Lake of Fire (about gangsters), again, in the credits

Seems a lot of games have a song in their credits. Portal and Portal 2 as well.

Bastion has several songs I think.
