This song ate my entire life for the last month. Spent over 150 hours making it.

I love the metaphor of the factions being players at a poker table and the courier as the dealer able to stack the deck in the favor of a particular faction.
"I'll leave nothing to chance" actually has a double meaning because in fallout 3, speech checks were a dice roll even at speech 100, but in NV, it's a 100 chance if you're over the neccessary. Pretty cool :)
Sounds like y'all can't play a game without power playing and having to reload, you guys know that failing speech checks can lead to multiple new dialogues and ways to handle a situation this is true even in New Vegas just harder to notice since speech is more guaranteed.
"And the vengeful eyes of wells run dry..." Ulysses' former tribe, the twisted hairs, lived in a settlement called Dry Wells... Once again, Gav's lyrics are outstanding.
Considering all Ulysses has been through, what kind of person he is now, likely all the tears he had ran dry long ago and ceased to exist just like his tribe.
@@zakkymiftahurrahman1665 Not a faction, play the DLC and listen for the man with the flag on his back, lonesome road must be last if you wish to get the full picture.
LifelessTooth I respect Obsidian for being professional and downplaying Outer Worlds’ comparisons by fans to Bethesda’s INFERIOR work. Even if I’m willing to bet my left nut Star field will be outer worlds but more bloated and worse. I’ll resend my bet if Bethesda pulls their head out of their ass and overhauls their engine
The Courier is one of the scariest and most badass characters ever, imo. Your first mission is literally to find the prick that _shot you in the head and buried you!_
This needs an animated re-release, with each faction represented at the poker table. NCR: a McArthur like general with eyes hidden by glasses Legion: Roman centurion with his eyes hidden by his helmet. House: the casino boss over your sholder Ect ect ect Edit: just realized the other lesser factions also mirror each other, so you could actually have each facing each other with their resource like a set of betting chips. Brotherhood and enclave in their rusty armor with tech Followers and Kahns in white dusters and black leathers with medical Powder gangers and Boomers in their different blue jumpsuits with explosives... and opposite the table from the courier, the dealer, is Ulyssies staring at him from the shadows of the doorway.
Or Ulysses might be moving into view from the dark corridor just as Courier ends dealing the cards. He leans against the doorframe and watches the game while nobody apart from the Courier seems to notice him or care about his presence.
That sort of thing was what I was imagining while listening to the song. When it got to Ulysses I imagined him with his back turned to us, until it got to "That watch me from afar" where he turns to face us as the divide is destroyed.
"The bear is roaming out across the West" Now I want an entire song about each faction sung and played in the tunes used in this video when they're brought up
This is really fantastic, and seeing such a beautiful song for such an old game coming out now gives me a wonderful hit of nostalgia, feels like 2010 again
Hehe, that is exactly how I found Gavin so many years ago, someone played one of his mass effect songs at the end of a review and I was like... "what is this, a song about Mass Effect? I gotta check this out"
I kinda like that there's a crazy nymphomaniac option when interacting with Benny as a female with the Black Widow perk, especially after he put a bullet in your skull lol
@Char Aznable They'd have to get it past EA and Disney. EA wouldn't be against making that kind of money, but Disney sent a CaD to a fan project that was remastering the original KOTOR, so...probably not happening.
i actually relate a little, my first and only time i beat it, i was actually trying to do well for the mojave, but after many errors, i ended up betraying all of my morals in the last minute, because i was feeling angry, i ended up getting a bad ending, it was more sad that any other thing, becuz i had a true emotional value for every one of the mojave, but it al ended in ashes becuz man the ncr screwed me up

No idea if the creator will see the comment, but I wanted to say that your song is amazing. To me, it's become so completely linked to the game in my mind that I can't picture one without the other. Watching clips or talking about the game brings this song to mind. So thank you for creating this work of art, you are officially part of my favorite game forever.
This could be a trailer. It provides information about the game but doesn't really spoil anything. Addition: It is incredible that on top of everything else, the sections of the song about the main factions really fit each faction.
"Ain't that a kick in the head?" "Man, ‘a kick’ sure is a funny way to pronounce 'two nine millimeter rounds', but whatever." "Six, please." -Benny and Courier Six, at some point, probably, idk.
Correction. Maria uses 10mm ammunition. She is a 9mm pistol with a unique skin but really uses 10mm rounds in game. And Courier Six was shot once in the cutscene
I love the call backs to Waste Land Soul! “Someday the rains will come and wash it all away! The heart of the wasteland will awaken on this day!” Contrasted with “Someday the change will come and wash the doubt away! The heart of the desert will beat harder on this day!” Keep up the amazing work Gavin!❤️
I don't know if you know this or not Gavin, but I think you might be an actual, honest to god, Muse. I don't think you've ever bot delivered on a song, but this one might be your best work yet. YOU CAN FEEL THE SOUL that went into this. Amazing.
Just as I was getting back into Fallout Gavin comes and gifts us with a musical piece made in heaven. I had lamented to myself for a long time that such a fantastic and wide world as the one explored in Fallout New Vegas had gotten a musical treatment from you with a funny, albeit simple song, back from the time when you were starting off. Your music back then was great, but compared to the masterful works you have produced since then it fell rather short. Having FO:NV confined to that timeframe always saddened me, but now I don't need to worry about that anymore because, Christ, this song is amazing. One of your best, I dare say.
Can we please acknowledge how FUCKING HARD the Legion bit goes? I literally listen to the 40 odd seconds of the Legion verse over and over because it's so fucking good
Got to say, I like the way this goes. Intro (Courier themselves), House, NCR, Legion, the rest (independence), a final reference to Ulysses (after some hints throughout the song) and then the end with a Mojave version of Wasteland Soul. All that mixed with the gambling and card motifs throughout the song (which were always in the game too House, Benny and the Forecaster are good examples of that idea.) I've got a lot of thoughts on this song, overall, I'd say it's brilliant. Only way it could be better is if Keith getting gunned down was in the video (that's a joke based on my personal inexplicable like of Keith.)
@@AceOfBlackjack "your cringe me", if I have to ever read a comment like yours that causes me to have a stroke, Again. Lord have mercy on your hypocritical ass...
Miracle of sound: just going to put this here. The Stupendium: ooh a challenge JT Music: time to let loose our creativity- Miracle of sound: hey, I just step out for a minute to create a second new vegas song.
ANOTHER* HE ALSO DID TRIP TO VEGAS WAAAAAAY THE HELL BACK WHEN IT'S PRETTY GOOD BUT THIS ONE DOES KINDA NUKE IT OUT OF THE WATER JUST MY OPINION THOUGH
The legion's part of the song is straight up some of the best stuff i've heard in a while. The rest of the song is also amazing just very different from that one part, not that thats a bad thing.
I can just imagine Caesar Tandi and a robot with House face in it standing around a poker table. In front of them chips in the shape of land provinces like in the map of HOI4. Two cards are dealt at the table.The platinum chip and the Hoover Dam. The moment they see that all three shout ''ALL IN'' and push all the chips in the middle and look at the dealer. The dealer who just happens to be the Courier laughs pulls a card from his sleeve and places it next to the 2 others...a card depicting the courier himself. Thank you for this amazing song!
@@AvocetR6 Yeah, in all routes, Kimball even goes to Hoover Dam to give a speech to the troops stationed there, which in some routes, is the end of him
I imagine benny losing, giving every one a smirk as he leaves but later after imagine houses securitron (which is playing for him) suddenly going offline for a bit later turning back on with a new off putting smiling face which then picks up bennys cards and continues to play
@Gr8Sc0tt when tandi passed on the ncr fell back to the typical problems that plague a democratic nation. infighting, bribes greed, and all that "lovely" prewar stuff. the ncr basically became a second united states. complete with a version of manifest destiny and willsonianism (as it believes it knows best for the Mojave and anywhere else it took over) . the ncr wants to add the Mojave (or rather the whole of what once was navada) to it so that one, the rich cattle barons have more space, and 2 for what ever old world tech is in navada. i figure the ncr would likely suffer the same fate as the prewar states. as everything has a defined maximum size. going over it leads to it falling apart.
Me halfway through the song: "Come on, Gavin... NCR's nice and all, but give us some Legion, will you?" Gavin: 4:44 Me: "SCOUR THE EAST; PROWL UPON THE BORDERS"
This song so perfectly fits New Vegas. If there's ever a New Vegas Special Edition, or an official remaster of any other kind, this song absolutely _MUST_ become its official music.
How maybe for the end credits but that's it for it to exist in Universe it have to be in a sequel to New Vegas because it has too much information on The Courier who up until like halfway through the game is just to walk the Wasteland f***
I know this song/comment section is old, but recently this song popped up in a radio mod I downloaded for F:NV and it stood out amongst the meme songs for being actually genuinely good and catchy. Had to sit for a minute and listen to it, and now it has sent me here. TY for the song, it's so good :D
RUclips has weird ad placement cause I was singing along to this and all of a sudden "General another settlement needs your help I'll mark it on your map"
I absolutely love this song the metaphor that the factions really on the player too help them win and stack the deck in the favor but all the while he could stack it in his favor and take control. The special descriptions for the minor factions like the enclave who are strays that were scattered after Navaro fell or how the Brotherhood is now a brotherhood that hides and hoards, or the Great Khans who are chem addicts and have been beat and broken many times but never are gone, or the boomers who are secluded but any who come near face the thunder of guns and finally the Followers and how they just want to help and heal and follow that idea. If anyone wants too read what my interpretation of this song means and if the creator confirms it as accurate leave a comment
@@MishraArtificer Your welcome I also used the character that they showed for each of the minor descriptions to help come to these coclusions but this entire song literally spans the story of the courier throughout the main game and eventually into Lonesome Road.
“Scattered Strays who lost their meaning, brotherhoods who hid and horde, followers of help and healing, the addicted lost and scorned” is one of my favourite verses of all time
Everything after “scattered strays who’ve lost their meaning” goes unbelievable hard. Like the whole song is a masterpiece, but musically it builds up to that point and then it absolutely delivers. A story told through music, not through lyrics, that’s what makes a song good. The lyrics are awesome too don’t get me wrong
I get why this one was particularly challenging to make, how you captured every factions style while maintaining such a great flow. This one is a real banger!
Just saw an npc in The Outer Worlds called "Private Kimball". Brought memories of this masterpiece of a game rushing back. Clicked on YT and this popped up. Time for a new playthrough xD
That legion section goes crazy, I also appreciate it was shorter than the other major factions. The legion would want their point to be clear and quick, they don’t need to give you a long winded explanation.
This song NEEDS to be in the fallout series season 2. Have the Courier roll up with big iron playing in the background and another scene of him kicking ass with this tuned up.
I REALLY hope they don't put the courier, but only mention or subtly reference Them. They should be only a legend, as they became in the end of the battle of Hoover Dam
@@neuro7372 Hank couldn't be the Courier. We legit see him in pre-war times. Plus if we do see him I hope that like I said is a badass wearing modified armor from the DLC
@@JooJBagrielhear me out, the courier is a legendary figure, but it’s revealed they’ve just been living in Goodsprings and taking care of an aging Doc Mitchell and killing any bandits that try to hurt the town that saved them
@@jamesbassett2388 Nah man, maybe, just MAYBE, doc can have a brief cameo and mention him, but the actual courier appearing would break that legend status. And even if doc appeared, it would deminish the choice of taking over goodspringa with the powder gangers.
Actually discovered your masterpiece thanks to a review by TheActMan. LOVED the James Bond-like feel of it and the whole shift on the Legion part. Can't thank you enough for this banger! Wished you had more about FONV.
This one has got to be one of my favorite so far. Keep up the great work. The part about Caesar's legion is done so well, and the entire song is SUPER catchy... Thanks for the great music. = D
TheOdst219 you need help man Unless you’ve got a fat man, Power Armor, 30 auto inject anti venoms. And a lot of distance between you two you can fight those things
sometimes you dont know how bad you needed something until you get it. this song is so perfect. maybe its just that I finally got into new vegas, and I see why everyone loves it, I'm hooked and I always love a least one or two songs to do with a game that will always stay with me. it could just be the amazing combination of instruments, and style that give the music something that doesn't get old, that you can replay over and over. it could be the meaning behind the lyrics and how good the song is even if you never played the game. No matter what it is that makes this song resonate so well with me, I know this song is gonna be somewhere in my playlists for a very long time, even if I stop listening to it every day, week, month, It will never feel right getting rid of it. Hats of to Miracle, you did a great job. a true legend of the Mojave.
I...I DID it! I found a flaw in a Miracle of Sound song! Hah! At 6:20-6:22, the caption says, "Brotherhoods who hide and horde" when it SHOULD have said, "Brotherhoods who hide and hoard". Hoard, not horde! HAH! I have found the one flaw in a MOS sound, ever. This was worth the last three years of my life. (None of this was serious. You're a bard barely equalled by the best, Gavin. Keep kicking ass; we'll get complacent, otherwise.)
The Courier is the ultimate blank slate. Obsidian truly nailed it. The only character who could ever surpass the Courier is the Chosen One, but that's got more to do with destiny than anything. New Vegas is a game I can keep coming back to and enjoy time and time again. Every playthrough has a totally new vibe and experience. An enthralling story, excellent DLCs, and various ways to play. It's truly a gem, and this song is the icing on the cake. Well done.
I had my computer do the math. This game was released about 9.75 years ago. This song was released about 9 years after the game. This song makes me want to play a 10 year old game.

Correction. Maria uses 10mm ammunition. She is a 9mm pistol with a unique skin but really uses 10mm rounds in game. And Courier Six was shot once in the cutscene
This is so awesome. I look forward to listening to it during my next visit to the Mohave.

I don't know if you know this or not Gavin, but I think you might be an actual, honest to god, Muse. I don't think you've ever bot delivered on a song, but this one might be your best work yet. YOU CAN FEEL THE SOUL that went into this. Amazing.
Mr. House: ~30 seconds of song
Legion: ~30 seconds of song
NCR: ~1 minute of song
Well, we can see which faction Gavin likes
technically, the NCR is the morale faction, dont have to kill anyone besides the Legion

Just as I was getting back into Fallout Gavin comes and gifts us with a musical piece made in heaven. I had lamented to myself for a long time that such a fantastic and wide world as the one explored in Fallout New Vegas had gotten a musical treatment from you with a funny, albeit simple song, back from the time when you were starting off. Your music back then was great, but compared to the masterful works you have produced since then it fell rather short. Having FO:NV confined to that timeframe always saddened me, but now I don't need to worry about that anymore because, Christ, this song is amazing. One of your best, I dare say.
And to think that The Stupedium and JT music also made some FO:NV videos a year ago, they just make it that much sweeter.
@@essex3777 It amazing that after all this time people are still interested in F:NV.

Gonna be stuck in my head for ages, Gav. Thanks for this. :)
Can we please acknowledge how FUCKING HARD the Legion bit goes? I literally listen to the 40 odd seconds of the Legion verse over and over because it's so fucking good
Perfectly captures the pros and cons to the legion
Got to say, I like the way this goes. Intro (Courier themselves), House, NCR, Legion, the rest (independence), a final reference to Ulysses (after some hints throughout the song) and then the end with a Mojave version of Wasteland Soul.
All that mixed with the gambling and card motifs throughout the song (which were always in the game too House, Benny and the Forecaster are good examples of that idea.)
I've got a lot of thoughts on this song, overall, I'd say it's brilliant.
Only way it could be better is if Keith getting gunned down was in the video (that's a joke based on my personal inexplicable like of Keith.)
6:16 That entire montage of the factions is actually chilling with those lyrics. The one about Ulysses was especially awesome.

HE ALSO DID TRIP TO VEGAS WAAAAAAY THE HELL BACK WHEN
IT'S PRETTY GOOD BUT THIS ONE DOES KINDA NUKE IT OUT OF THE WATER
JUST MY OPINION THOUGH
@@mr.cypher604 I agree, trip to Vegas definitely had mojave atmosphere but it felt more like a casino song then the wasteland feel this provides
The legion's part of the song is straight up some of the best stuff i've heard in a while. The rest of the song is also amazing just very different from that one part, not that thats a bad thing.
Well the Legion is very different compared to all the other factions so it makes sense.
I can just imagine Caesar Tandi and a robot with House face in it standing around a poker table.
In front of them chips in the shape of land provinces like in the map of HOI4.
Two cards are dealt at the table.The platinum chip and the Hoover Dam.
The moment they see that all three shout ''ALL IN'' and push all the chips in the middle and look at the dealer.
The dealer who just happens to be the Courier laughs pulls a card from his sleeve and places it next to the 2 others...a card depicting the courier himself.
Thank you for this amazing song!
*Kimball. Tandi is dead by now, I believe.
@@AvocetR6 Yeah, in all routes, Kimball even goes to Hoover Dam to give a speech to the troops stationed there, which in some routes, is the end of him
I imagine benny losing, giving every one a smirk as he leaves but later after imagine houses securitron (which is playing for him) suddenly going offline for a bit later turning back on with a new off putting smiling face which then picks up bennys cards and continues to play
@Gr8Sc0tt when tandi passed on the ncr fell back to the typical problems that plague a democratic nation. infighting, bribes greed, and all that "lovely" prewar stuff. the ncr basically became a second united states. complete with a version of manifest destiny and willsonianism (as it believes it knows best for the Mojave and anywhere else it took over) . the ncr wants to add the Mojave (or rather the whole of what once was navada) to it so that one, the rich cattle barons have more space, and 2 for what ever old world tech is in navada. i figure the ncr would likely suffer the same fate as the prewar states. as everything has a defined maximum size. going over it leads to it falling apart.
Yeah! SOMEBODY SAYS HOI 4?!

The part about the legion is so different from the rest and my favorite part of the song.
Steffen T. Each reference to the groups within the game are spot on, right down to the boomers “secluded rumbling thunder”
This song so perfectly fits New Vegas. If there's ever a New Vegas Special Edition, or an official remaster of any other kind, this song absolutely _MUST_ become its official music.
How maybe for the end credits but that's it for it to exist in Universe it have to be in a sequel to New Vegas because it has too much information on The Courier who up until like halfway through the game is just to walk the Wasteland f***
I am in awe. The transitions between sections are seamless, and each segment contributes to the greater whole. Fantastic!
Except for the bit about Caesar's Legion...which is entirely appropriate for Caesar's Legion, really.
Wow, you managed to mention almost every faction and DLC in one song! That's pretty dang amazing mate, you rock!

(Not a dig, I love it)
I absolutely love this song the metaphor that the factions really on the player too help them win and stack the deck in the favor but all the while he could stack it in his favor and take control. The special descriptions for the minor factions like the enclave who are strays that were scattered after Navaro fell or how the Brotherhood is now a brotherhood that hides and hoards, or the Great Khans who are chem addicts and have been beat and broken many times but never are gone, or the boomers who are secluded but any who come near face the thunder of guns and finally the Followers and how they just want to help and heal and follow that idea. If anyone wants too read what my interpretation of this song means and if the creator confirms it as accurate leave a comment
THANK YOU! I was trying to figure out who "scattered strays who've lost their meaning " referred to...
@@MishraArtificer Your welcome I also used the character that they showed for each of the minor descriptions to help come to these coclusions but this entire song literally spans the story of the courier throughout the main game and eventually into Lonesome Road.
“Scattered Strays who lost their meaning, brotherhoods who hid and horde, followers of help and healing, the addicted lost and scorned” is one of my favourite verses of all time
Fallout: New Vegas song in 2019? Gav, you are too kind good sir...
I'm playing through New Vegas right now! Perfect timing!
Everything after “scattered strays who’ve lost their meaning” goes unbelievable hard. Like the whole song is a masterpiece, but musically it builds up to that point and then it absolutely delivers. A story told through music, not through lyrics, that’s what makes a song good.
The lyrics are awesome too don’t get me wrong
"A tide of blood shall wash over the Mojave, but not purify it..." ~the Forecaster.
Came kind of out of nowhere. But it's great. As always. You are a perfect songmaker for me. A pure miracle of sound.
I get why this one was particularly challenging to make, how you captured every factions style while maintaining such a great flow. This one is a real banger!

That legion section goes crazy, I also appreciate it was shorter than the other major factions. The legion would want their point to be clear and quick, they don’t need to give you a long winded explanation.
This song NEEDS to be in the fallout series season 2.
Have the Courier roll up with big iron playing in the background and another scene of him kicking ass with this tuned up.
Some people say Hank is the Courier , but I can assure you they are gonna put Big Iron for The Ghoul

Who else is here after the first season finale of the Fallout series and gearing up for the second season with an epic song about an epic game?
sometimes you dont know how bad you needed something until you get it. this song is so perfect. maybe its just that I finally got into new vegas, and I see why everyone loves it, I'm hooked and I always love a least one or two songs to do with a game that will always stay with me. it could just be the amazing combination of instruments, and style that give the music something that doesn't get old, that you can replay over and over. it could be the meaning behind the lyrics and how good the song is even if you never played the game.
No matter what it is that makes this song resonate so well with me, I know this song is gonna be somewhere in my playlists for a very long time, even if I stop listening to it every day, week, month, It will never feel right getting rid of it.
Hats of to Miracle, you did a great job. a true legend of the Mojave.
I...I DID it! I found a flaw in a Miracle of Sound song! Hah! At 6:20-6:22, the caption says, "Brotherhoods who hide and horde" when it SHOULD have said, "Brotherhoods who hide and hoard". Hoard, not horde! HAH! I have found the one flaw in a MOS sound, ever.
This was worth the last three years of my life.
(None of this was serious. You're a bard barely equalled by the best, Gavin. Keep kicking ass; we'll get complacent, otherwise.)
The Courier is the ultimate blank slate. Obsidian truly nailed it. The only character who could ever surpass the Courier is the Chosen One, but that's got more to do with destiny than anything. New Vegas is a game I can keep coming back to and enjoy time and time again. Every playthrough has a totally new vibe and experience. An enthralling story, excellent DLCs, and various ways to play. It's truly a gem, and this song is the icing on the cake. Well done.
Can we have a 10 hrs version of the line "deal another hand and play"?
I love longer songs like this. They're very satisfying to sing along to
Me: Don’t worry, I won’t lean into the legion too hard.
