I really had a ton of fun making this video! I've been playing FIFA forever and the soundtracks are just so good. Wanted to share my thoughts on the kind-of, "FIFA Genre", that my friends and I have come to love.
who else remembers all the fifa songs but doesn’t know what years they’re from. it’s just a big unorganized library and i love it
Lmao i do
My girlfriend and I sit around and play “guess the year this fifa song is from” its great.

Nah bro I remember what year most songs are from
The best part of them is the nostalgia you feel when listening to them
So true

I find them so shit/annoying I literally turn them all off every time.

I discovered The 1975, Foster the People, Imagine Dragons, John Newman, CHVRCHES, Disclosure, Jax Jones and Kygo because of FIFA soundtracks all over the years, it's amazing
TheRani231 same
Imagine dragons 😂🤦♀️
Wait CHVRCHES were on fifa?
@@charleyatkins9094 FIFA 14 I think
Charley Atkins909 FIFA 14, We Sink
Fifa 15 soundtrack hits differently, thanks for reminding me of it 🙏
Ashton Tyler ur not wrong at all
true
hasn’t been the same since 15 and 14. This years isn’t terrible though
FIFA 15 Magic Man milky chance. Quality
Yessir’
Its a very indie soundtrack for such a mainstream game
Clarisa Pasini that’s exactly what makes it so good
I think EA is the best company for promoting indie... i have no idea why but they always put so much care into that market. even if their own stuff sucks ass
"bad indie" more like
mind! someone else may enjoy a tune you do
nostalgic? that was 4-5 years ago lol
Fifa 14 soundtrack still nostalgic af
Fardeen Iqbal fifa 12 for me
Right
Fifa 14 is a classic
Fifa 16 is the worst
Fardeen Iqbal fifa 09 has belters 👌
John Newman ~ Love Me Again FIFA 14
Still the best song FIFA has ever put into the game in my opinion
Olivier Gijbels Without a doubt
Love me again****
Daniel Jesus whoops my bad
An absolute banger
I always thought MGMT - Kids was the best fifa song from fifa 09 I always get such nostalgia from hearing it
I discovered The Strokes due to playing fifa 12, what a band.
Glad to see a fellow man of taste, also I played fifa 12 before I knew who the strokes were. Discovered the strokes independently years later and then years later again saw that Machu Picchu was on 12s soundtrack to my surprise.
Fifa 12 was sooooo good
@@madisonking8057 same, what a band
DUUUUUUDE fucking same. its crazy to think that listening to angles (and the first two oasis records) at 12 led me to listen to different kinds of music and made me love it. you could even say that song made me want to dedicate my whole life to making right now lol
maachu picchu
This is the most specific topic for a video but i know EXACTLY what you meant when this popped up in my sub feed
Very Spanish Sparrow Same here, FIFA songs have that special quality about them.
I'm not even going to lie, mandem be the singing the most random songs thanks to FIFA
lmao frfr
I used to sing the german song from FIFA 10 but i would just say random stuff cuz the song was still good
Tayyab Hussain big man ting
I always sing "Call it What You Want", "Now I can Talk", "In My Mind" or "Eure Madchen"
Tayyab Hussain Kaneki..
I like how you basically refuse to call it "soccer" or "football" and just refer to "the game" or "the sport" to avoid as much controversy as possible
big red 2:04
What controversy?
The world against just one country.
XD
Jorge Ramírez USA Australia Canada and a few others btw UK invented the term
@@nalimlattarai2873 All of them nobodies in world football
Fifa
The songs you remember singing along to whilst playing career mode all day, they really get the nostalgia flowing.
I still know almost all the words to that Israeli song and so many others 🙃
Two door cinema club in the background 😍😍
JCMSpencer H are they Irish?
dylan9nine Northern Irish
A band I discovered through FIFA (11), by the way
They are the best band on this planet and I’ve seem them live.
My favorite band ever
My friend and I talked about this awhile ago. FIFA songs stick with you. They're so catchy and up beat they just stick. Give me the FIFA 14 soundtrack and even though i haven't played that game for like ~5years i will know a good portion of most of the songs.
Austin yes 100% agree. My first FIFA was FIFA 09 and I can still remember the lyrics to the songs like Mercy and Black and gold. Crazy man
I have the same thing with FIFA 13 -- still one of the best soundtrack in any game in my opinion. And I hear songs from that one and the newer ones all the time and immediately think of the games.
@@Demolion951 I remember Bum Like You
@@nkegoaekokobe1866 what?
Thanks to Fifa I discovered TWO DOOR CINEMA CLUB (my favourite band), which I can see you put one of their songs in the background (;
Jon B yeah they’re good. I liked their song from fifa 17 “Are We Ready”
I Can Talk on FIFA 11 was where it was at.
Sleep Alone in FIFA 13!!
Same story for me, what you know's riff playing on the background btw, heard it instantly hahah
A O A A O
I think what makes a ‘fifa song’ is that feeling you get when listening to them after not hearing them for a few years and get nostalgic memories
I find it really funny that Isombard by Declan McKenna actually got featured on the FIFA soundtrack, considering that his biggest song, Brazil, is actually a hit piece against FIFA's corruption
Amalga TRUE THO. I was just thinking about that lmao
Yeah but the game Fifa and the corrupt company Fifa are different things
But the game FIFA has nothing to do with the Association
Its Squad you would find EA is pretty morally corrupted, even if it's not the same level as FIFA the organisation
Other examples include are we ready? by two door cinema club in fifa 17, a song against consumerism (FUT packs) and copy of a by nine inch nails in fifa 14, a song which many associate with the thought that fifa games are just copies of each other.
Honestly the FIFA Street games Growing up had some of the most diverse and amazing soundtrack for It's time
Fax
Got into hilltop hoods en skittles because of it. Lovely stuff
ThaRixer fifa 13 has the best soundtrack
Street games in general have great soundtracks. Check out NBA Street Vol. 2 Soundtrack. I don't even like Basketball too much, but the soundtrack is great.
Este nuevo ritmo...ya todos lo saben...
FIFA music is the type of music that you would play when driving in a Jeep with your friends on a California road trip in summer.

Found so many artist through fifa, I remember hearing ratchet by bloc party but never knowing what song it was but loving it. Went through bloc party's discography and then it clicked
MrKiingpin funny given how much Bloc party fans hate ratchet...
Yeah most because
thats the best fifa song hands down. make a sceene make it real make it feeelll
Tbh, they're my favourite band, and think Rachet is class, was seriously good when they player it live in Manchester last year
MrKiingpin same the first time I heard a bloc party song was FIFA 06 on my dsi, then when I got FIFA 14 on the Xbox 360, I heard ratchet and that song blew my mind
smallpools dreaming was my favorite
Same!!!
One of the greatest
The Big Bang and Searchin are great too!
Same and hit it from the american authors
It's still my favorite
‘Us against the world’ by Clement Marfo in Fifa 13 was amazing
Every now and then 'fly or die' run through my brain and i don't know why
Nicklas Bendtner yeah it was sick
FIFA 14 was not only the best FIFA game but also had the best soundtrack!
*fifa street intensifies*
FIFA 13 little bit better imo, but I agree with that soundtrack
@@leafsinseven fifa 14 was fifa's peak. Gameplay and Graphics were all fantastic and it was at its peak popularity wise
@@leafsinseven it was literally just a 3 year difference mate
Back when it was all about pace
Cocoon by catfish and the bottlemen was included in one of the soundtracks and it's an amazing song
Lucrezia agreed
Yes bro
I went to their Concert last week :)
I love that song but they do play the edited version, for a more real experience you gotta hear the explicit version.
Young folks peter Bjorn and John.
Fifa 08 soundtrack was a masterpiece
Antni yes, I know that song thanks to a Wearhouse shop in the uk called “B&Q” wen I was a toddler in the 2000s me and my dad would always be in B&Q and that song would be playing, but also I have a lot of memory’s of that song from FIFA too just not as strong as from b&q 🤣
mlb 2k too
FIFA 07 had the best soundtrack imo. “Supermassive Black Hole” by Muse, “Nothing In My Way” by Keane, and “Tive Razão” by the legendary samba musician Seu Jorge. The lesser known bands on the soundtrack were all really solid for the most part, in particular bangers like “Oh My” by Mellowdrone and “Chloroform” by Belasco, and never forget the ridiculous “Tei! Tei! Tei!” by Polysics.
The foreign songs are often the most memorable and makes the soundtracks what they are.
Never thought i would see a fifa related video on this channel but here it is and i like it
It's hard to believe that i actually discovered Radiohead thanks to FIFA 2004
It was Myxomatosis from Hail to the thief
I discovered Gorillaz thanks to FIFA 2002 lmao
Zion & Lennox for me in 04
That’s so cool. I didnt get into them until like 2008
lmao that’s sick dude
Song 2 by Blur from Fifa '98 - 1 of the 1st games I played
Big dreams by BAKAR is such a slept on fifa song. Best song in fifa 19
Yep
Banger
Violet city...
Pretty shit tbh i was dissapointed with the whole fifa 19 soundtrack
Big dreams
Loving Two Door Cinema Club in the background
Rory Drain me too! I’m a big fan
I remember Two Door Cinema Club be in FIFA.
Best band on the planet
MOVING ON facts
the 1975, foster the people, rex and so many more. by the way can't wait for your channel to explode, great stuff here.
Pete Chipwell Catfish blew up after being on FIFA 14 too. I Discovered them through Cocoon.
uzu *15
Pete Chipwell u can’t forget the colourist or the chain gang of 1974.
“We’re throwing rocks of a cliff side”
FIFA 17 was my first FIFA on console whereas me and my friends used to play FIFA mobile 14.that is the most nostalgic soundtrack ever.
@DDGaminG YT rightly said.
Deadass fifa 16 was my first but I've been playing mobile since fifa 12
I found Catfish And The Bottlemen, my favorite “new” band as of now, thanks to the Fifa15 soundtrack
Dude holy fuck, literally no one respects the soundtrack to a fucking FIFA games. Just cause it's sports related. SO thanks for this video dude
FIFA: 11 had the best soundtrack. Fight me.
デマルコマック Fuck yeah. MGMT, Gorillaz, LCD Soundsystem, Two Door Cinema Club, The Black Keys, just to name a few...
2010 was an amazing year for music
FIFA 12 >
FIFA 08 > FIFA 12
FIFA 13
fifa 14>
In my opinion, I think that the FIFA 18 soundtrack is the worst yet. Perhaps it's because they've been trying to add more mainstream artists/songs, or maybe it's just me disliking the song curation. Nonetheless, great vid!
For me fifa 16 worst
I know its a matter of taste but 18 is one of my faves. I absolutely love all the older ones (from 06-13) but a lot of that is due to nostalgia. Think 18 is the best out of the recent line ups imo.
17 is
nee 16 is one of the best
Star roving and automatic are great...but the rest of the songs aren't that good
FIFA has shaped my music taste more than anything else. I discovered Two Door Cinema Club, the Black Keys, the Strokes, Cut Copy, Foals, Everything Everything, Catfish and the Bottlemen, Nothing But Thieves, Kimbra, Portugal the Man and so many more artists through FIFA.
When I heard call it want you want something just hit my memory I got so shook that I got goosebumps
Bloc party - rachet, kratfklub - eure Machen, CSS - Hits me like a rock, grouplove - colours (captain cutz remix), Rock mafia - big bang/fly or die, tons of brilliant songs and artists I've found through fifa
Alfie haigh *Eure Mädchen - Kraftklub
If you make it on the FIFA Soundtrack, you're ready for your breakthrough. I noticed it a few years ago.
You play the newest FIFA at release in september/ october, and some months later lots of those songs are playing in the radio or are placed in the charts.
saw it with heat waves
I have always loved the fifa soundtrack even if I only listen to hip hop most of the time and these soundtracks are the only thing that isn't hip hop that i listen to
The thing is, i can't listen to them outside of the game. But in the game theyre absolute bangers, well until fifa 18
Thank you for making this! The soundtrack is the thing I look forward to every year. I learn of lots of new artists every year and it has really expanded music horizons
Yoooo I subbed due to your interest in Rex Orange County and Brockhampton but you continue to amaze me, first having “the queen is dead” in the honourable mentions of your favourite albums, and THEN dropping some “two door cinema club” in the background of this video?? Mad! I love it. 10/10 for you sir
This is a fantastic video, made me do a double take when I saw it in my subscriptions
Bloc Party : Helicopter
LCD Soundsystem : Daft Punk Is Playing At My House ,
are my ultimate FIFA song
I guess 06 is the one to go for you too then. Best soundtrack ever.
@@Bearsone Yup! 😁😁😁
I can change by LCD is also very good, its been on fifa 11
Bobby Shrestha and ratchet
So glad you made this video! My brother and I have been saying this for so many years, so it's good to know that a fellow musician agrees
I love you.
iamthatroby That's what she said to me, but never meant it..
iamthatroby Gayyy
Weight of Living by Bastille was the BOP in FIFA 13
Furkan Köse I agree, that song is amazing
Dude, I still sing that song sometimes and forget it’s from FIFA 13 XD
Fifa 13 was gold... Madeon, Bastille, Rock Mafia, Fitz and the tantrums, Flo rida
On Top of the World?????
FIFA 13 best soundtrack dont @ me
All my thoughts about the soundtrack perfectly encapsulated in one video! Love it man!!
This is such a great video. I have a Fifa playlist on Spotify with music from the game, and my own additions that I find fit the 'Fifa Sound' you describe. You nailed it.
I'm on that FIFA 08 soundtrack still. "Goodbye Mr. A" is still the best FIFA song of all time for me!
All about The Hooisers! Seen them live 3 times haha! But awesome!
Dude.
Helicopter - bloc party.
I agree FIFA 08 was the best overall, but no song has beaten Rockafeller Skank from FIFA 99 for me.
Daniel Väeger fools gold by the stone roses in fifa street is the best fifa song in my opinion
Damian Prentice Fifa 08 the loser song
I remember in fifa 11 them playing Locnville - Sun in my Pocket, it was cool to see a south african song
Kevin Mareletse South Africa shoutout ✊🏾
Remember it too
So many goosebumps watching this video. Great job my man, the nostalgia from FIFA alone makes me love this game even today.
I've been looking through a lot of my playlists recently and scouring for songs that I feel would belong on FIFA, even though they're not on it. I've picked up a few other points to add to this.
-The intro has to grab you from the start. Keep in mind this is mainly for the disco/indie side of FIFA, and not the rap side.
A catchy little drum beat, or the post-chorus hook, played at the start of the song, is done all of the time. It grabs you at the start, but not by the scruff of the neck as opening with the chorus does, it just leads in you in by your arm. For example, to show off a song that I think fits the genre well, Lagoon by Flavoured Nation and it's clicks are instantly iconic and you'd know what song you're listening to the moment you hear it.
-A consistent tempo is really required, the danceability of the song really matters, something you can jam and sing along to easily, without being thrown off by some wacky rhythm. For example, Not Holding Back by Ivory Rasmus has this really nicely.
-It has to give you a memory.
I don't know about you lot, but whenever I hear a FIFA song, even on the ones I haven't played, I can almost feel the vibe of sitting in the summer air, solving some SBC's, getting ready for a kickabout with the bois. I can hear that, coming from the song. I associate FIFA with it. As my example, Gold by James Marriott does this extremely well, I can pretty much smell summer just by listening to it (which sounds kind of weird when I say it out loud.)
-And finally, it has to bring something new to the table.
It can be fairly formulaic, but it needs something unique or some secret sauce that really hits it well. I'd reckon Welcome To My Planet by Pomplamoose does this really well, the guitar lick being completely unique to the song.
FIFA is a great way to discover bands
i feel like we must be long lost brothers, because we like all of the same stuff
sometimes it actually shocks me when one of your videos pops up and it's something i love and have enjoyed for a long while
keep up the amazing content
Anthony Greenwell i have the exact same feeling whenever he uploads a video !
Anthony Greenwell yoooo for real
Had me goosebumping through out the whole video man. Great video
Someone FINALLY made a video on this! Thank you!
It's gotta be a specific kind of indie rock that is uptempo, with minimalistic riffs and a chill sounding voice. And some funk too.
I've been wondering for ages who exactly curates these soundtracks, it's became such a fascinating and impeccable library
Great video man. Found out about the Australian band "DMA's" through FIFA, and am now about to see them for the 3rd time next month.
Good video man, I know I'm a bit late but I liked it so much I thought I'd comment and share my appreciation
I found crystal castles through fifa 12
This is getting freaky weird now - literally everything i listen to and now even fifa soundtracks! I love it!!
Thank you for the great video and for allowing us to browse through glorious fifa songs in the comment section.
this is honestly such a great topic choice
as a non video game/football player and an avid youtube comments reader who always sees 'whos here because of fifa' on music i listen to, this explains a lot
I discovered my favorite song ever through Fifa 19. I've been listening to City Looks Pretty by Courtney Barnett for more than a year now. And it's not only the song I love the most, but the song I've listened to on Spotify the most ever. Thanks, EA!
Oh my god I've been following you for months and I just found this video. I have such incredible memories of playing FIFA 15 with my highschool bestfriend. We had a joint account wherein we managed to get a 116 rating on our top squad, got the rarest cards, and even scammed some people off of their FIFA coins lmao (we were 15 at the time). We liked the game but what stuck around the most throughout the years is the soundtrack.
We rarely talk nowadays but when we do, FIFA 15's music will never be not mentioned.
such a unique and original video idea respect bro
Love me again by John newman is the best (fifa 14)
And isnt fifa 15 too?
Hell yeah
Great Video! For me the Fifa songs are a perfect mix of "fun vibes" and "chill vibes". Many songs are perfect for relaxing and give me good feeling. For example "sewn" by The Feeling (Fifa 07) or "palm trees" by Lowell (i think Fifa 14).
Great video man, you hit the nail right on the head. FIFA music never disappoints
What an amazing topic you’ve chosen.
Oooooh my god I enjoyed this way to much
Smh no mention of dreams by beck
Spoonman Vlogs facts
Spoonman Vlogs and Coasts Tonight. That is the happiest song of any FIFA I have played in the last Decade
Spoonman Vlogs ikr
It's cause Beck has been known since the 90's, he's not that new. Not saying it's a bad song, just that the creator of the vid is mentioning rising stars.
Love the video. Glad someone else out their knows that fifa songs can be a community itself. Hearing a fifa song in public/store just makes me happy
Am I that friend that you were gushing about fifa music with?? Seriously great video man. I’ve been a fan of fifa soundtracks since 05
Fifa 13 best music no cap. cant decide what fifa song was the best ever tho, on top of the world by imagine dragons or love me again from john newman?
Cheiz van Schaak searchin' is best song imo
on top of the world and fly or die are my top 2 songs.
Cheiz van Schaak Love me again is from FIFA 14 and it’s definitely the best no cap
@@kaankurtoglu3202 fly or die is so much better than on top of the world. Also deadmau5, professional grifters
pfftttt, the song "Habibi" from fifa 19 puts these to shame
Dude, I didn’t realize Rex Orange County was in FIFA 18! That’s crazy! Now I HAVE to check out the soundtrack.
I'm following FIFA games since 2004, haven't played all of them, but I was always excited for upcoming game in FIFA series because of the soundtrack. It's almost like a ritual to me, to wait for the realise of full song list and listen to it to find hidden gems.
I've been doing it for years, that I myself started saying "Oh this would be a great FIFA song" especially for some indie pop/rock/electro songa that I listen, and started making my own FIFA songs playlists. For example when I heard song "Hot Head Chippenham" by Bad Sounds imidiately I had a feeling like it belongs in the FIFA game.
Great video.
you seriously just put what I've always felt into words!
I don't play FIFA at all and have never bought a FIFA game in my life. I've played it with friends but it's just not my cup of tea. However, when I looked for Something For Your M.I.ND. on Deezer and the FIFA 18 playlist popped up, it got me curious. After seeing some artists I really like in the playlist, I decided to give it a try. FIFA 18's soundtrack is amazing, I couldn't believe it, even shared it with my friends to make sure that I wasn't becoming crazy. This playlist has been in my favorites ever since, I didn't know all FIFA's soundtracks were of such a high quality, I thought this year's one was an exception or something. I guess it's time to give all FIFA's soundtracks a try !
Have you already listened to the Fifa 14 soundtrack?
Man, fifa 18 is one of the wort too so you’re in for a treat
FIFA 14/FIFA 15 had the best soundtracks.
This video just popped up in my recommended videos and it's spot on. I think a bit of the essence of what you said in this video got lost in the soundtrack for FIFA 19, but maybe it's just a matter of my own taste in music.
This is a great video. I've always thought about this and thought that the choice of music in FIFA games is amazing and perfectly fitting. It's something many people don't seem to notice or even acknowledge but FIFA delievers every year. And yeah, maybe it's not the same as producing and creating an orchestral instrumental soundtrack for an emotional RPG or story driven game. But it's still pretty difficult to nail it every damn time.
Great video. I think something you should have added to reinforce your last point, is adding bigger bands that really gained traction after FIFA. Portugal. The Man and Imagine Dragons are just two examples from earlier FIFAs of bands that weren't well known at the time, but have become pretty big since.
I sometimes drain my PSP battery by only listening to the soundtrack on Fifa 14 with headphones . The best part is you can re-arrange the songs
running , dreaming , purple yellow red and blue , love me again , compliments your soul , f f you , marathon and ratchet are my fav most listened to
But runnin , dreaming and compliments your soul was my fav 😊😊😊😊
Does anyone remember those weird rounded referee heads 😂😂😂
Even thinking about that memory gives me chills
my god the nostalgia hit you just gave me when Call It What You Want, goosebumps all down my neck haha
Great vid mate
Elite level video.
"Surprise Yourself" by Jack Garratt
Sam Treharne Yes
FIFA 06-13 basically shaped my taste for music without me even realizing it. When people used to ask me what kind of music I preferred, I would tell them basically what’s on a fifa game. I agree with your points, I find some new talent this way and continue to listen to them after the exposure. Great vid!
best content i've seen in a while
Thanks to this video game, I have been able to discover bands and artists that I still listen to today, such as catfish and the bottlemen, two door cinema club, foals, kasabian, among others, besides the fact that the artists I admire appear in the soundtrack excites me a lot. In my opinion, the soundtracks that I have liked the most are those of FIFA 12, FIFA 13 and FIFA 15.
Words can’t describe how much I love FIFA and it’s SoundTrack.
Brought back so much memories.
Remembering going through the menus of the different modes while listening to those songs brought tears to my eyes.
Oh the nostalgia.
Big fifa player and music fan, me and my friends play together a lot whilst listening to music too and even know a fifa song when we here it we don't mean songs in fifa but songs that could be used for new games. My shout for fifa 20 (Bene "evil spider") it's such a feel good tune!
