TheBlackie79 The end tune is how I see it as Pip, BJ, and Rampage return to Equus.. Goddesses I cried at the end of that story. RIP all that have died during BJ’s long journey...
Was very drunk after coming home from a party this morning and had a song stuck in my head and could not figure out what it was. Finally realized it was this! makes sense that after a night of drinking whiskey I would have a song about Whiskey horse stuck in my head lol
Dillon Donovan It's from chapter 22. I highly recommend you do NOT read this until you actually reach it in the story, you'll spoil one of the most important parts in the fanfic if you do. Even the beginning of this chapter is incredibly spoiler-heavy. But yeah, to answer your question: it's chapter 22.
I can respect that. I had the same thing happen to me after I read ax-Brutaloo on Tumblr. I couldn't get the story out of my head and had to sketch out a comic about it. It's only a short comic, but once I get a little better at drawing I'm going to finish it. Thanks for noticing my lobster. I'm planning to grab some more tonight, they're just so tasty :) BTW here's my topfav fanfics I've read so far "Princess Celestia Hates Tea", "Twilight Sparkle Gets A Free Salad", "Airshipping Is Magic"
Love this. This was the first piece of Fallout Equestria music I listened to and this has a dear place in my heart as I reflect back to everything this community has introduced to me back in 2012. Now it's 2017: a new year.
Well this was a surprise to find. I really enjoyed this song. Your voice and style of singing sounds so relaxing and natural. It brought back all those pleasant fuzzy memories of listening to classic country western music with my dad. Also I can't wait to read Fallout Equestria! It's on my ever growing list of fan fics to read.
I could not stop laughing. I love grimdark, I've reread PH probably 6 times at this point (ebooks, and it's my go-to daily rereader), and this breaks EVERYTHING about it. I fuckin' love this so much.
Pretty fast. It helps I only have u p to chapter 46 on my ebook, so every time I get to the "end" I curse a bit, think "Why am I still reading this! I know every part! Why would I reread this again?", wait a couple of weeks, and restart it. Also, in highschool, and we've had a lot of snow days. Okay, I have to ask. You're the first decent country artist I've heard of who knows FoE, and I have to ask for a modern bluegrass version of of Blackjack's Whiskey song. Pretty please with a [](/bjinabowl) on top?
Well, thank you. Country (the old stuff anyway) is something that's in my blood. Grew up with it. I actually wrote a treatment of "Whiskey" at least...a year ago? I've since stopped supporting PH, so I probably won't be releasing it, buuuuut I dunno.
I still can't get over how incredible this song is. It's beautiful and bittersweet and nails down Blackjack's character wonderfully. The PH fans need to make more music for such a fantastic story. I'd make some if I could.
Ha fan fics and music, you really love FOE. I just downloaded a copy of Fertile Ground. Once I'm done with FOE and Pink Eyes I'll check out your story and PH.
I've had an idea for dark ambient, and have had a rough track planned out. Starting with mechanical and electric sounds for all the projects and tests in Hoofington. As the machinery gets more abrasive, a creeping high-pitched theremin as Enervation is added, which peaks before retreating into the background. Lastly a throbbing pulse as a heartbeat for the Eater of Souls sleeping in the core, mixing radiation, plasma, pulsar, and black hole samples from a radio telescope for that alien feel.
This sounds pretty good. For some reason this inspires me even more to write my fan fic about a traveling group of ponies who are a bluegrass band in the wasteland.
Haha! You're too kind. My wife says it works for the song, as if some drunk vagabond came off the street into the studio, sang and just left. They paid me in whiskey. ;P
Thanks! Fallout: Equestria is one of the most bizarre things I've read. I hadn't read a fanfic since the baby steps of the internet and I swore off them for years. It was such a weird idea, though, I had to read it. I laughed through the first three chapters at the dissonances between the two settings. Then the story got really good really fast. This song is from Project Horizons which I enjoyed reading until it started playing shark hopscotch.
Vacations in places you know nothing about? That sounds marvelous! Yeegh, Couchtavia sounds like something not meant for my tablet. Pink Eyes is my favorite of the FO:E universe. I won't say anything about it, but you'll know what it will be like by the end of the first chapter. It's the perfect palate cleanse after the original FO:E before you dive into ultra-violence and the like. BTW: I'm writing one, too. Fertile Ground. It's like a political drama, I suppose.
It's way early on and not in a complete sort of form. It's a parody of William Blake's "The Tiger" . I never finished Project Horizons. Fell off the boat around ch. 45 or so.
Yeah I never was one for fan fics, but it's songs like these plus all the art/animation about these stories that got me into it "End of Ponies" sung by P1K probably had the biggest impact on me. After listening to that song I had to read the story. Just like I have to read Fallout Equestria and Project Horizons. Ha but shark hopscotch doesn't sounds good. I'm hoping Project Horizons will turn out better by the end. But I like surprises so I'll keep my expectations low and find out formyself ;)
I Found It! I finally fucking found it! I’ve been looking for this song ever since the fallout 4 mod came out. I used apps RUclips searches everything and finally I fucking found it!
The past couple of chapters have put me on the fence. I still enjoy it, but would love it even more if it were truncated. Some of the best characterizations, though. Really makes those characters pop out. Goldie has become my favorite, though, as weird as that is. But then, Rampage is pretty bomb, herself.
Yep spoilers suck big time. Even when it comes to real life. The best vacations I've had are the ones where I know nothing about the locations I'm visiting. And thanks for suggesting those other two fan fics! Hadn't heard of those yet. Retcons sound really annoying. Luckily fan fics are free so it's not hard to put them down when they get on my nerves. "Couchtavia" was the first story I couldn't finish. From beginning to end Octavi didn't say a single word! It drove me nuts and bored me to death
Thank you. I totally agree, I just never thought I'd be singing one of them. There are more I've written, but I have to get my super-singer friends to do them, instead.
Have you ever considered making a Pony (or maybe Fallout Equestria?) themed blues song? It seems like the brony community is lacking in blues music, and by that I mean I've sadly not found one.
Indeed, blues songs are rare in the fandom. I made a podcast about it, and "sadly" some of them are not "100%" Blues, still all of them does their "work", and btw Blues have many sub-genres / is crossing many genres, so it's ok i guess ~~.
Well, it's not quite what I was expecting. I don't think of Western style when I imagine Blackjack taking down 99. Still, it's very good. A like for you, good sir
Thanks man. It's the hick in me that makes me need stuff like this. The Hoof may be nowhere near southwest enough, but for me anyway, it fits the whiskey queen blowing random stuff up. Shooty grin and all.
The funny thing is that The Tyger is practically the only piece of "professional" poetry I've read. And Somber just happens to rewrite just that one. It's things like that that make me stop believing in coincidences~
Oh, It did? XD They usually send a "To the queue!" This time: radio silence. There are so many musicians and the drama from this last weekend, they gotta be slammed. Oh, and thanks.
The drama was all the Las Pegasus Unicon business. The tumblr forest was set ablaze with rumor and insanity. That's about all I know. I just make music, haha.
I... I don't know what to think. The universe doesn't make any sense anymore. Black is white, up is down, short is long. Contradictions and impossibilities are now possible. My life has been turned upside down. This is a Country/Western song....and I like it.
Hey would you like to help me and a few of my pals out with some music for a series we are planning this Song here fits the theme so well its not even funny but message me when you can and I would love to work with ya on some music
It's not that I think it's the greatest thing in the universe, but rather I couldn't get the story out of my head. When that happens I simply must accomplish the task my mind has ordered me to do. It's why I made this persona/channel. My main gig is guitar playing, teaching and composition, so I suppose I'm pretty boring: my work is also my hobbies. XD And awesome. It's still unfinished, but I hope you enjoy what's there so far. BTW: That is a massive lobster!
I know you allowed this music to be used in a Fallout 3 mod a while back. I'm actually doing a conversion and expansion of that mod to become "Gardens of Equestria." May I have your permission to include your song in this?
Oh yeah, I love old school country, as well as rockabilly and bluegrass. I actually think some psychobilly would work nicely in this setting given how many monsters and the frontier-style of the Wastes.
Just one thing I have to say about the lyrics (which, if I understand correctly are not yours) is that in The Tyger, the lack of rhyme in the first stanza is notable in itself. Both the third and fourth line APPEAR to rhyme, ending in eye and -try, but the word symmetry is what ends up breaking the symmetry of the verse. And then, at the end, the last stanza is the same but for one word- in the same line as the word symmetry. Unfortunately, this version loses that cool little bit of structure.
Thank you so much. I played the drums on an M-Audio keyboard, so I guess you could say I programmed them, but still had pressure sensitivity (for velocity changes) and the rhythmic inaccuracies that are vital to this type of music.

11 years. man. this stuff still good
Damn it's been how many years now and this is just hitting harder and harder
I love this song but I have trouble imaging it as Blackjack slaughters her way through her home. Wonderful job.
Thanks. Yeah, that emotional dissonance is my favorite part of Fallout. XD
I can't explain why, I just love this song with a passion.
Cool, thanks!
+warbalist this reminds me of johnny cash
after reading the entire book, this song sends happiness and chills down my spine at the same time
TheBlackie79 The end tune is how I see it as Pip, BJ, and Rampage return to Equus.. Goddesses I cried at the end of that story. RIP all that have died during BJ’s long journey...
Rylan TFJ1987 late reply I know, but I cried too, it was a good ending for the book
dont fucking spoil it
I didn't like that they all died...except scotch tape...I really wish she survived the last battle.....
Was very drunk after coming home from a party this morning and had a song stuck in my head and could not figure out what it was. Finally realized it was this! makes sense that after a night of drinking whiskey I would have a song about Whiskey horse stuck in my head lol
Still good
Чёрт,эта лучшая музыка для мясорубки в стойле!
Ermak а то
Никак иначе)
Excellent singing, no need to feel so bashful.
Rereading that chapter and imagining this song when reading the poetry really kills the drama. It's pretty funny! xD
Just like the Fallout games. Sardonic humor at its most absurd.
Dillon Donovan It's from chapter 22. I highly recommend you do NOT read this until you actually reach it in the story, you'll spoil one of the most important parts in the fanfic if you do. Even the beginning of this chapter is incredibly spoiler-heavy.
But yeah, to answer your question: it's chapter 22.
"How much pain did you endure,
To protect and life secure?"
The only answer I can think of is, yes.
I can respect that. I had the same thing happen to me after I read ax-Brutaloo on Tumblr. I couldn't get the story out of my head and had to sketch out a comic about it. It's only a short comic, but once I get a little better at drawing I'm going to finish it.
Thanks for noticing my lobster. I'm planning to grab some more tonight, they're just so tasty :)

Hear Hear. It's amazing the memories that come flowing back listing to this old music.
Two years huh? I still listen to this song with pure love..
..I still don't know why it hooked me so much..
+Overlord Soviet “Master” Dash That's some dedication. I don't think I've ever listened to a song that long and continued enjoying it
James Hogge it's not dedication, it's just because I can constantly relate to this song. Its like it never gets old.
+Overlord Soviet “Master” Dash Fair enough
Well this was a surprise to find. I really enjoyed this song. Your voice and style of singing sounds so relaxing and natural. It brought back all those pleasant fuzzy memories of listening to classic country western music with my dad. Also I can't wait to read Fallout Equestria! It's on my ever growing list of fan fics to read.
I could not stop laughing. I love grimdark, I've reread PH probably 6 times at this point (ebooks, and it's my go-to daily rereader), and this breaks EVERYTHING about it. I fuckin' love this so much.
Ha! Good, thank you.
6 times?! Egads, how fast do you read?
Pretty fast. It helps I only have u p to chapter 46 on my ebook, so every time I get to the "end" I curse a bit, think "Why am I still reading this! I know every part! Why would I reread this again?", wait a couple of weeks, and restart it.
Also, in highschool, and we've had a lot of snow days.
Okay, I have to ask. You're the first decent country artist I've heard of who knows FoE, and I have to ask for a modern bluegrass version of of Blackjack's Whiskey song. Pretty please with a [](/bjinabowl) on top?
Well, thank you. Country (the old stuff anyway) is something that's in my blood. Grew up with it.
I actually wrote a treatment of "Whiskey" at least...a year ago? I've since stopped supporting PH, so I probably won't be releasing it, buuuuut I dunno.
Rarity is going to whine (and also remain a corpse glued to a wall) at you.
So I'll just clear the way- please release it?
do the song from High Tower next!
I still can't get over how incredible this song is. It's beautiful and bittersweet and nails down Blackjack's character wonderfully. The PH fans need to make more music for such a fantastic story. I'd make some if I could.
Ha fan fics and music, you really love FOE. I just downloaded a copy of Fertile Ground. Once I'm done with FOE and Pink Eyes I'll check out your story and PH.

Johnny Cash parody pony remix? that tone sounds so familiar.
Haha! You're too kind. My wife says it works for the song, as if some drunk vagabond came off the street into the studio, sang and just left.
They paid me in whiskey. ;P
Thanks!

Yeegh, Couchtavia sounds like something not meant for my tablet.
Pink Eyes is my favorite of the FO:E universe. I won't say anything about it, but you'll know what it will be like by the end of the first chapter. It's the perfect palate cleanse after the original FO:E before you dive into ultra-violence and the like. BTW: I'm writing one, too. Fertile Ground. It's like a political drama, I suppose.
I finished Project Horizons this week after months of reading. I can't remember this song though, but it sounds awesome!
It's way early on and not in a complete sort of form. It's a parody of William Blake's "The Tiger" . I never finished Project Horizons. Fell off the boat around ch. 45 or so.
Amazing song! it's epic to hear what the songs from the story would actually sound like :D
Thanks a bunch. It was certainly fun to do.
This is great. We need more Vocal FOE songs as whole!
Yeah I never was one for fan fics, but it's songs like these plus all the art/animation about these stories that got me into it "End of Ponies" sung by P1K probably had the biggest impact on me. After listening to that song I had to read the story. Just like I have to read Fallout Equestria and Project Horizons.

I Found It! I finally fucking found it! I’ve been looking for this song ever since the fallout 4 mod came out. I used apps RUclips searches everything and finally I fucking found it!
could you prehaps tell me what exact mod?
i hope me asking 5 years later aint no problem
I REALLY LIKE YOUR SINGING'S MANE!
You have a great singing voice.
Легенда
Thank you so much!
It cracks me up; I'm glad it's bringing joy to others.
Thanks. I LOVE the western swing and old-school country songs from New Vegas.
"You let the blues move in now IiiiIIIii'm movin' out!"
you song good awesome job
Man, this needs more views.
Blackjack trying to project a twisted sense of altruistic joy over her pyrrhic suffering will never not be melancholic and sadly inspiring.
Damnit why can I not remember this song in PH. I only read a few months ago.
I just put them into the description. Have fun!
The past couple of chapters have put me on the fence. I still enjoy it, but would love it even more if it were truncated. Some of the best characterizations, though. Really makes those characters pop out. Goldie has become my favorite, though, as weird as that is. But then, Rampage is pretty bomb, herself.
Lyrics are now in the description. Good call.
never mind faulty headphones and FoE:ph is like an original but for new Vegas
Yep spoilers suck big time. Even when it comes to real life. The best vacations I've had are the ones where I know nothing about the locations I'm visiting. And thanks for suggesting those other two fan fics! Hadn't heard of those yet. Retcons sound really annoying. Luckily fan fics are free so it's not hard to put them down when they get on my nerves. "Couchtavia" was the first story I couldn't finish. From beginning to end Octavi didn't say a single word! It drove me nuts and bored me to death
This is such an awesome track, this is the reason why I love FOE so much. I'm glad that I made this video 1000 added to my favorites list :D.
Thank you. I totally agree, I just never thought I'd be singing one of them. There are more I've written, but I have to get my super-singer friends to do them, instead.
Thank ya!
I think of this as the song that would play at the credits is PH had any.
Talk to Somber about that. I rarely jump into lyric writing when it comes to ponies...
Thank you.
Haha! Thank you.
I loves me some old-time country-western.
Anyone realize this is a darker re-imagining of William Blake's poem The Tiger?
Lacunae nice aviator and nice name its good to see some one like me and you (and probably others but not my big sis) enjoy and respect Lacunae
Awesome!
Sweet! Thank you so much.
Well, thank you so much.
Some of my favorite psycho bands are Ghoultown, Kitty in A Casket, Blood Sucking Zombies from Outer Space, and the Cramps.
I cant recall reading this in the story what chapter is it from?
NEEEDS WHISKEY!
Oh Yeah! Brilliant!
Have you ever considered making a Pony (or maybe Fallout Equestria?) themed blues song? It seems like the brony community is lacking in blues music, and by that I mean I've sadly not found one.
Ponies are just way too happy. But a Fallout Equestria blues song would work. Maybe Blackjacks got the whiskey blues. xD
I'm the creme de le creme not just another Jane Doe, yeah I'm the type of pony everypony should know! Sorry I had to.
Indeed, blues songs are rare in the fandom. I made a podcast about it, and "sadly" some of them are not "100%" Blues, still all of them does their "work", and btw Blues have many sub-genres / is crossing many genres, so it's ok i guess ~~.
Well that was awesome
Well, it's not quite what I was expecting. I don't think of Western style when I imagine Blackjack taking down 99. Still, it's very good. A like for you, good sir
Thanks man. It's the hick in me that makes me need stuff like this. The Hoof may be nowhere near southwest enough, but for me anyway, it fits the whiskey queen blowing random stuff up. Shooty grin and all.
I can't remember when this song was used. I like it though!
is this... first half of Tygger, tygger? Lol, highhoof for knowing Blake :P
Thanks.
The funny thing is that The Tyger is practically the only piece of "professional" poetry I've read. And Somber just happens to rewrite just that one.
It's things like that that make me stop believing in coincidences~
How goes it Warbalist, I just happen to be writing while listening to this song.
Oh, It did? XD
They usually send a "To the queue!" This time: radio silence.
There are so many musicians and the drama from this last weekend, they gotta be slammed.
Oh, and thanks.
I love Project Horizons. It lives up to the original Fo:E in my opinion.
I've read all the chapters out so far and I don't remember this song, which chapter was it in?
do ya think you'll get a link to this video in that chapter too?
This song makes me one to make a fallout new vegas pony version game and put this song as the mane song of the game
And I like you.
*SINGS* The circle of liiiiiiiiikes!!!
But, yes, thank you.
The drama was all the Las Pegasus Unicon business.
The tumblr forest was set ablaze with rumor and insanity.
That's about all I know. I just make music, haha.
I... I don't know what to think. The universe doesn't make any sense anymore. Black is white, up is down, short is long. Contradictions and impossibilities are now possible. My life has been turned upside down.
This is a Country/Western song....and I like it.
Oh noez! That's one sense closer to senseless!
I agree with your friends
I like it
Hey would you like to help me and a few of my pals out with some music for a series we are planning this Song here fits the theme so well its not even funny but message me when you can and I would love to work with ya on some music
Hey, thanks.
Chapter 22. Yum!
Good ol' Merle. I like a lot of old-school country and western. Before the dark times. Before the pop music.
It's not that I think it's the greatest thing in the universe, but rather I couldn't get the story out of my head. When that happens I simply must accomplish the task my mind has ordered me to do. It's why I made this persona/channel. My main gig is guitar playing, teaching and composition, so I suppose I'm pretty boring: my work is also my hobbies. XD
And awesome. It's still unfinished, but I hope you enjoy what's there so far.
BTW: That is a massive lobster!
Chapter 2: Bringing the House Down of Fallout Equestria: Foreigner.
Not so spoierly now, now is it =P
I know you allowed this music to be used in a Fallout 3 mod a while back. I'm actually doing a conversion and expansion of that mod to become "Gardens of Equestria." May I have your permission to include your song in this?
And what exactly are you writing?
"Spoilers."
GAAAAAAHHHHH!!!
I swear I heard a country song just like this
chords , what are the chords for this?
Oh yeah, I love old school country, as well as rockabilly and bluegrass. I actually think some psychobilly would work nicely in this setting given how many monsters and the frontier-style of the Wastes.
Just one thing I have to say about the lyrics (which, if I understand correctly are not yours) is that in The Tyger, the lack of rhyme in the first stanza is notable in itself.

And then, at the end, the last stanza is the same but for one word- in the same line as the word symmetry. Unfortunately, this version loses that cool little bit of structure.
Johnny was the BAWSEST! Yes, that's a word.
This sounds like a fallout new vegas song it's AWESOME
neat solo!
were drums programmed?
Thank you so much. I played the drums on an M-Audio keyboard, so I guess you could say I programmed them, but still had pressure sensitivity (for velocity changes) and the rhythmic inaccuracies that are vital to this type of music.
warbalist our band drummer is currently learning to play these march-like country-style snare patterns, hence my interest.
Thanks! this might make me reread it. goodbye free time. lol
At the very beginning, I thought it was gonna be a Merle Haggard song, it sounded like his music...
Make it happen, dude.
Sure thing.
Can you post the lyrics please?
Thanks. I try.
Shows you what I know about English lit. and poetry!
This is why I'm a musician...
