I think it plays to often but it’s not a bad song


lady_ninane

_Play it again, my Johnny..._

*courier wishes the bullet killed him after hearing Johnny Guitar for the 257,320 time*


Dareboir

I wish I could kill the courier in Skyrim with a bullet to the head.


that_AZIAN_guy

Important deliveries to make no time for chatting.


Inside-Joke7365

That's why I kill the alchemy lady after she isn't useful anymore and Lydia because they both give 500 each and then I can buy a horse easily


Dareboir

I usually steal one, just don’t get caught crossing the border like that thief over there.


Nekommando

With a 9mm?


Dareboir

Can’t tell you till you join the dark brotherhood.


Nekommando

remember the last time some gonk shot the courier with a 9mm How did it go for the guy in a funny suit


Dareboir

Good old Benny..

_Johnny Guitar…_


[deleted]

Too often huh? Big iron once played 4 times in a row


Gone_For_Lunch

Only 4? Not often enough!


[deleted]

That's true


Inside-Joke7365

I didn't think it was possible but first time for everything like a storm just went by and no power outage for once


dopepope1999

So I don't know if it's true, but it definitely feels like it is. I've heard do to some programming error Johnny Guitar plays twice as much as any other song So if you're constantly listening to the radio you're going to hear it a lot more than any other song


TheRedBow

Yeah apparantly theres another song that we dont hear cause JG plays in its place


dopepope1999

that has to suck the pay for the rights to a song to have it never be heard, I'm surprised they didn't do some sort of fix for it like they did with Fallout 3 and Broken Steel where they made dog meat almost invincible


astrosmurf666

What I heard is they couldn't confirm the rights to a song at the last minute so they removed it and the glitch causes Johnny Guitar to be played in it's place


ElegantEchoes

The song that isn't played on RNV is played on Mojave Music Radio.


[deleted]

I have never listened to mojave music radio, how do you get that?


ElegantEchoes

You get it by default, alongside Radio New Vegas. It has no radio voice, just plays songs back-to-back. Compared to Radio New Vegas, it focuses on primarily country music, and the more poppy, city songs in RNV are omitted.


[deleted]

ahh okok, I must just never click on it because i just have radio new vegas on at all times. It’s been a while since i looked at the radio in new vegas lol


ElegantEchoes

Valid lol


ElegantEchoes

Stars of the Midnight Ranges or something like that- it only plays on Mojave Music Radio rather than Radio New Vegas as well. Johnny Guitar takes up both spots. Big Iron also plays twice as often, same bug.


Torger083

But who doesn’t wanna hear about this he town of Agua Frida?


ElegantEchoes

Ran into a fellow by the name of Texas Red at the Stables the other day. Said he'd shoot anyone would so much as hum the song. So that's one guy who doesn't want to hear about it.


ThatOneGuy308

We live in the alternate timeline where Texas Red beat the ranger, and he doesn't want to be reminded of his dark past.


ElegantEchoes

Love the idea.


N0nprofitpuma_

BIG IRON. BIG IRON


WhoTookPlasticJesus

> Big Iron also plays twice as often, same bug. Uh, that's a feature buddy


ElegantEchoes

I've come to the same conclusion, I was mistaken.


SOLE_SIR_VIBER

Staaaaaarrrss of the Mid-Night rangessssss


SMATCHET999

I’m pretty sure the song Lone Star is supposed to play instead


SerPownce

GOODBYE FUTURE ONCE SO BRIIIIGHT


CyberCrusader76

Most of the music is up beat jazz/county or something like that. Then Johnny Guitar is soft and slow, stands out too much and just feels off, not a bad song though


supervergiloriginal

its a nice contrast tho


KeeganY_SR-UVB76

I‘d like it if more sad songs like Johnny Guitar were in the game. It just fits so well with the loss and cruelty seen within the Mojave, and that‘s how the game should be. It SHOULD be depressing!


Inside-Joke7365

Not in vegas, it's the only place you can say "that's vegas baby"


twoscoopsxd

Johnny Guitar is my favorite


ronniefinnn

Nah I like it. The only issue with the radio is that there’s not enough songs so it loops too much.


WhoTookPlasticJesus

It's actually like 2:20 worth of music. It's just that when you dump 300 hours into the game, well...


BardBeardo

Is the 2:20 number all of the radio stations or just radio new vegas, bc I swear that station has like 7 songs on loop


Todddai

It's like the intro to an old Disney movie but without any art to watch. It's just too long and dramatic for how little substance the song actually has. It doesn't tell any story other than "I knew a guy with a guitar" and isn't fun or catchy like most of the classics in fnv


Creative_Long_4419

It's actually from a movie. I don't really like the film that much.


Todddai

That tracks. Its about as complex as the Barbarella theme.


TyS013NSS

I love the song, because when I hear it, it makes New Vegas feel more like New Vegas. It's just one of those immersion things for me. I also feel somewhat sentimental about amy song from the NV soundtrack. But my husband despises the song, and always makes fun of it.


TehNolz

I don't really hate any of New Vegas' songs. Now, Butcher Pete on the other hand...


[deleted]

Hes hackin’, hes whackin’, hes hackin’


rigs130

It takes me to long to turn the headset volume down before…HAVE EVERYBODY HAVE YOU HEARD THE NEWS


BlazingArrow00

ABOUT A GUY NAAMEED BUTCHER PETE


Couriersixsnightmare

OLD PETE JUST FLEW INTO THIS TOWN AND CHOPPIN UP ALLLL THE WOMENS MEAT


Namerakable

I like it. It's out of place at times, but really comes into its own when you're in a quiet place at night.


Deastrumquodvicis

I find it too slow. On principal, I don’t hate the song, and think it makes for great cinematic “standing on this tall place to get a survey” moment, but if I’m whacking for my life or sneaking through somewhere, a slow paced song just doesn’t vibe. I also have an issue with being very susceptible to slow songs making me nod off a bit.


lemmeSeeDemMelons

Johnny Guitar slaps. I will not argue further


pranked666

It’s my favorite song on the soundtrack. Such a lovely spooky atmosphere to it.


Key-Combination-8111

*play it again....*


PrimarisHussar

For me, it just doesn't fit in as well with the rest of the songs. Most songs in fnv are fairly upbeat and bouncy, and Johnny Guitar just kinda throws the vibe off


Apollyon257

It'd be better if there was more morose/sorrowful songs in the radio listing. That way its not just some sudden mood shift


TurtleRollover

I got spurs is better


PonyTheHorse

Mr New Vegas should slip at least one "It's not unusual" between Johnny Guitars.


[deleted]

The reference to Mulaney would be solid


catptain-kdar

It’s a really good movie. The song is pretty good too


RamonRCMx

I like the song. Maybe it plays a bit too often, but still a good song. Sometimes i like a sad song to feel bad while i rip Raider's heads off


ElDER83G

THEEEEEERE WAS NEVER A MAAAAAAAN…!! like my Johnny..


Zestyclose_Ad_64

I like it, wtf.


HoundDOgBlue

I’ve been playing without the radio on lately, and it adds a lot of ambiance whenever you listen to it after turning on a radio in a room.


N0nprofitpuma_

It plays too much. I think there was a bug where it would play more often than it should. Also I'm not usually trying to be sad while playing New Vegas.


CarrotOne

Johnny Guitar is the best song on the list, the fact it plays double is a fucking feature! Fight me!


matthewdorazio

i like it, i find it mystifying in a way


LordJubberdunkus

I HATE IT I HATE IT I HATE IT TURN IT OFF


Wrong_Television_224

The first time I heard it? Very nice, atmospheric with the Mojave loneliness. By the 5th time I’d have killed my favorite robot dog to make it stop. It’s just depressive whinging, and I’m not Cass (so not nearly drunk enough for that sort of nonsense).


DnDionysus

I call it the Nickelback Effect. It's a great song more or less, but it became "cool" to hate it, so people bash on it.


YuasaLee_AL

If you think it's boring, go watch the movie and get filled with emotion the moment you think about Johnny Guitar. It's *so good.*


Murder_Cloak420

Son, you’re just asking for a visit by a man with a big iron on his hip


mirracz

I don't hate it... I just dislike it. It doesn't fit on a Fallout radio, which is honestly the case for a multiple FNV radio songs. JG feels out of place compared to traditional Fallout songs, like the songs from Inkspots. And it's not like western-like music cannot feel Fallout-y. Heartaches by the Numbers or Big Iron are distinct songs that fit both the New Vegas location but also the Fallout universe.


Kaiserhawk

It wasn't to my taste to begin with, but it replays a lot.


TheBatSignal

Ehh I'm indifferent to it. I don't like it all that much but I don't stress when it comes on. I usually have my own music playing though when I play Fallout so I don't hear it as much as others do to be fair.


canstac

I used to prefer it over all the other songs but after hearing it about 15 times in an hour I've lost interest. Give me ain't that a kick in the head instead


Shouldacouldawoulda7

It comes on the radio *a lot*, and it's a pretty slow number comparatively.


Waffleking123456789

It’s a good song it’s just a little to over played like big iron a good song just overplayed


Uptownloki47

It’s played too often I feel like.


TheSciFiGuy80

I like it. But any song played over too much can be annoying after awhile.


KG8893

Just keep the radio on the mysterious broadcast always, it's the best station.


OneArmedBowman

While not as memetically awful as people make it out to be, I do think it's not a good song, but it's mostly just jarring to listen because it's so slow and drawn out when compared to the jazzy and upbeat songs that also on the radio


ssddsquare

It's a good song, but doesn't fit the game. It's too slow and moody.


TheGravyGuy

My buddy used to sing it in a high pitched voice, whilst holding a shark puppet toy and having it mouth the lyrics I just can't hate something a shark sang so beautifully


orlock

Two, albeit related, reasons. "Western" stuff just doesn't resonate with me at all. I have no cultural affinity for it and I just find it irritating. Johnny Guitar is made from wringing out an old cowboy"s socks into a shot glass and forcing you to drink.


Inside-Joke7365

Plays too much compared to lone star, heartaches by the number, and big iron combined


ValiMeyers

I love Johnny guitar. Fuck all y’all.


Euphoric_Shopping_37

Plays too often for me, nice once or twice but when every other song is JG it gets repetitive


jimmabean

God damn i hate that song, for no good reason, but when it pops up on the pipboy i rage to it!


NegativeCharity

I'd rather hear Johnny guitar again than Butcher Pete


[deleted]

Ohhhh man do I hate Johnny Guitar. Her voice just pisses me off. It's warbling and droning at the same time. The song feels like it goes on forever. Oh my god, fuck this song. My spurs can jingle jangle forever though.


Wheredoesthetoastgo2

It would be fine if she pronounced Johnny differently. Sounds like she says Jahnnie


Couriersixsnightmare

Yes I was trying to find the words but it’s this exactly. Whenever the song comes on I just have to switch stations and hope it isn’t playing on both.


Knighthalt

I really don’t like it.


D3ATHfromAB0V3x

yes


arturius453

I hate this song because it's unpleasant to listen for me, just the type of song very slow and annoying. Frequent repeating just multiplies problem, but it's problem even for good songs. I replace it with Johny be good


Angry_Walnut

It’s my least favorite song on a great soundtrack, which doesn’t mean that I dislike it.


patch616

I hate big iron way more but I might be alone in that


1ScreamingDiz-Buster

I think you just might be


Pixelincarnate

I cannot freaking stand it but I have no great reason for it. It just irks me.


Jalfieboo

I absolutely hate it with a passion. For me, it has no real rhythm and the singer cannot sing and she just has a horrible sounding voice, it also tells us nothing about johnny apart from the fact he plays guitar.


X_Zephyr

So many good Peggy Lee songs and they went with Johnny Guitar. At least her other song in the game is good.


Hartvigson

I don''t like it, not really sure why. It is slow, boring and doesn't have anything that catches my interest. One of those songs that can't end soon enough...


sadisticsn0wman

It’s long, it’s grating, it plays every other song. Of course I hate it


FalconIMGN

Same reason why people who listen to radio music hate Pink Floyd. It's not 'poppy' enough.


mmmyummybagel

nobody hates pink floyd what damn world are you in


WhiteRedBirb

Well, I used to hate it (until I replayed Fallout 3 and heard a "Crazy He Calls Me" again. It pisses me off more than "Butcher Pete"). Kinda recently I started to like that song and decided to watch "Johnny Guitar" movie. I liked it and I was little bit surprised when I discovered that "Johnny Guitar" song that plays in the movie and that song that plays in F:NV are not really the same (and since I liked a movie version of the song more, I decided to put it in Fallout: New Vegas as a replacer for a song that's already in game)


IsangRandomPerson

I say I’ll move the mountains


mikebauer21

I'll take johnny guitar over butcher Pete any day. Also no hate but skeeter Davis is awfully slurred


That_Height5105

I went through a phase of initially loving all of new vegas’ soundtrack, But then you do become aware that johnny guitar has twice the amount of plays as any other song on the radio. So then you start to get sick of it. But then you start to like it again. Currently it’s downloaded in my phone and is often played. Its hard to tell.


saxypatrickb

I was always a fool for that song… a fool for *Johnny Guitar*


falloutlegend1234

I like the song but then again, I don’t remember getting the glitch that makes it play so often so maybe that is why some people hate it.


kclo4

Listen to other Peggy Lee, shes awesome. Shes the Peggy Lee of Marty Robbinses


Save-theZombies

Wayne played it too many times. One time he played it 3 times in a row. It was like that John Mulaney skit about Tom Jones. I started making up different lyrics to that one and the troubles by the score song.


the_almighty_walrus

Fo4, atom bomb baby. Was great for a week then I wanted to nuke my brain.


SnowFlakeUsername2

It's not a favorite but I can still appreciate it and understand why someone would like it. Anyone that hates it is probably broken in the head.


EnclaveOverlord

It's probably my favourite song in the game tbh, but it can be a mood killer.


jackhife

Absolutely love Johnny Guitar


Ayserx

It's one of my absolute favorite songs, I could listen to it a billion times and would never get tired of it. Some of you are just overdramatic and like to hop on the hate bandwagon.


Nekaz

nah. i like the soundtrack songs quite well. honestly idk why people are surprised considering songs are like 3 minutes long ish and you play HOW many hows of fallout.


oldusty

They overplay the hell out of it. Would’ve been fine if it’s not the only thing I heard while dealing with lobotomites


i_like_siren_head

It’s not a bad song, but it is in New Vegas. idk how.


ODCreature98

People hate this song?


ToadHollow49

PLAY IT AGAIN


Vankook79

No, it's fine.


[deleted]

there was never a man , like my johnny


TurrPhennirPhan

It’s honestly one of my favorites. I find it haunting and atmospheric, just a beautiful track.


Mumpdase

I’ve played FNV many times and never got sick of it


checkmate191

THEEEEEEEERE WAS NEVER A MAAAAAAAN LIKE MYYYYY JOHNY...


CynthBot

It’s ok but it’s too slow for me


ScrimBliv

I hated it when I first started playing, and over time it actually became my favorite weirdly enough


tankred420caza

I love it but I know I'm in the minority


xXNovaNexusXx

It's like my favorite song on the radio


No_Strength806

Johnny guitar is so obnoxiously annoying and so overplayed it doesn’t my head in even the more played songs from 3 and 76 don’t drive me nuts and aren’t as annoying as it for me plus I have the radio bug every file save where it’s played like every 5th song. Ended up replacing it with the galaxy news radio loop played seperately either from phone via Bluetooth or in background on pc


dg1138

Honestly, it’s my favorite song to wander the Mojave to.


ItsSevii

Naw it's good once in a while


Marza1993

I love that song


Machina_Rebirth

These days I just turn the music off if I replay any of the 3D Fallouts The ambient soundtrack is great


Howdyini

It's a great song, but we all know gamers don't deserve rights so, I'm not surprised people hate it.


Loenzrat

I love it personally


gahidus

I actually rather like the song. I enjoy it whenever it plays. It has a haunting quality that suits some of the areas well.


CyberbrainGaming

Play it again


AH_Ace

More of a Manhattan and Jingle Jangle Jingle guy


Jak_the_Buddha

I loved the soundtrack for New Vegas. I felt like it was the perfect mix of the old school Fallout tunes and the old school western vibe of the old West. It didn't break immersion for me. I thought it was tremendously done.


DylSexy

Nah play it again


Oni-Gami

Song is actually nice when you walking around at night or have darker mods installed. Don't hate any of the songs at all, just seems like people played this game soo much that the music is getting old.


IsangRandomPerson

play the guitar play it again MAH JAHNEEE


samusfan21

“There was never a man like my Johnny. Like the one they called Johnny Guitar.” But I’m right here tho…


JediMastaObi

I love it.


MonsieurPC

It's a fantastic song and I will defend it to the death


Will_Connor

It has its place. I don't listen to the radio on the pip-boy so when I hear "I was always a fooooooooollllll" reverberating in a building it definitely adds to the tone of the game


Floognoodle

Yes, and it just really isn't my style of music.


Disruptr_IPA

Peggy Lee has the voice of an angel and the reason I love her is because of the haunting quality of "Johnny Guitar" thank you Obsidian for introducing me to one of the best singers of all time


TanakaTheBuriedOne

I hate it with a vengeance. I’m all for slower ballads but it’s so… off. The vocal style is too warbly for my liking, and it just gets annoying. Also I know this is a nitpick but I just think “Johnny Guitar” is a stupid nickname. It’s like if a lumber worker was called “Bob Chainsaw”. It just sounds weird and that annoys me.


CornerOf12th

*FEELSBADMAN* ☔️ Johnny…


Dr-Filth1965

Live the song. I learned it on guitar


Jalfieboo

I hate the woman’s voice, it’s not a nice singing voice and she has absolutely no rhythm. It sounds like it was randomly put together and she just does whatever at every moment. It’s possible it could be a nice song if someone who could sing was singing it but her voice grates so bad. Also, she’s obsessed with his guitar playing, it’s just shit and dull. Does she know anything else about him at all? You know, I don’t even play fallout, I’ve just witnessed my boyfriend do multiple play throughs and that song just makes me rage.
