GTA IV - Pause Menu Music Theme

[erni1900]

interesting as it is in the life of Nico Bellic, as if suddenly embodied in it and start to move all the

together with wyberm: lu of revenge but it would be an adventure

[trickorweed]

this theme is fuckin excellent could be a main theme of some gangster movie and in my opinion Rockstar should kept Nico as a main character for Gta V because Gta IV was the best sandbox/crime game so far and he was just badass...

[KamtheMetallicaFan]

@trickorweed agreeed

[stocadg]

i think my version is better... with the start menu picture is more realistic, you actually feel that you're playing watching it

[Astromchaser]

When the Holidays are over, this is what it sounds like in my head until spring arrives.

[deathknigt3000]

this melody basicly makes you fell what Niko has been through in his life,

the war, seening his friends die, people betrayed him, his life of crime.

listen to the things Niko says in GTA IV, you can tell he never wanted to be the man he became.

[TehSplinterCell]

I just pictured myself browsing the internet in a TW@ instead of where I actually am right now.

I'm no professional reviewer, but I think "permanently a part of your psyche" is criteria for a classic.

[x2222D]

i only like rap but this is so nice man! love it

(sorry im from germany haha)

[ostsfan]

This melody presents us directly the whole ugly frame of the differents immigrants scenario

Nike and his cousins been through

The sick race to violence, drugs, weapons and Total annihilation

[bigredjew]

What's that instrument at 0:45? I love it so much.

[WesternHS313]

6:16 Loud With Headphone Scared The Crap Out Of Me Haha

[discohome17]

Whats the real name of this song

[MarouaneOfficial2011]

I swear this song make hungry i want play Grand Theft Auto IV i love it so much nice story (L)

[WolverinesFan5051]

hopefully in gta 5 its pause menu theme will be something like this... this right here is a fucking masterpiece

[shepboy8]

for some reason, this song makes me think of Russians

[HappyHooker83]

@shepboy8 I know. I love it! Sounds like something that would get used in a mnajor film. Real sexy sounding, too, like a Natasha theme!

[KamtheMetallicaFan]

@UnbreakableUnion1993 i dont wont to be rude to you but please dont ever say Yugoslavia cause serbs will get very pissed off, im bosian i know

[magicaIpineapple]

@KamtheMetallicaFan

serbs are xenophobic, racist and homophobic, fuck what they think

[KamtheMetallicaFan]

@magicaIpineapple i know but just sayin the douches apart from Nicko ;)

[Buitonz]

Stupenda!!!

[Nisisoeksaekhur]

Am I the only one who can't stand the way the music alternates between left and right channels?

[boomerang2455]

@Nisisoeksaekhur I agree.

[FUETHUN]

10 people killed Vlad in "Uncle Vlad" mission

[TheAssassinKiler]

@FUETHUN That doesn't even make sense because this doesn't have anything to do with Vlad...

[cameroncrogers1995]

this makes me sad. Wish the game was longer. Wish gta 5 could be a direct sequel instead of yet again another damn reboot.

[stevefx14]

niko bellic is one of those characters you'll always remeber, one that touches the frames that make up huuman nature

[ErnestoAntonioSalas]

If you guys like this theme, go to the game's website and listen to the alternate theme - or search Grand Theft Auto IV alternate theme. It's kinda like this but has more of a beat to it than an echo. It's awesome.

[Yacattack18]

@GTAfan9999

Dude that's deep, but there's so much more to life dude

[whiterabbit703]

watch?v=blBq-GkgxV8

[GTAfan9999]

This song makes me feel like just ending it. Life right now is a motherfucker.

[BrandoJordanX]

This pause menu song is beast! I always when im depressed or pissed.

[lucariofan556]

GTA 4- story background

TBOGT-nightclub/party background

TLAD- biker background

[SerArea]

This song + headphones = epic show

[NeoGamemaster]

@SerArea You forgot rainy mood.

[FUETHUN]

I like this song, I listen to it when i'm feeling sad like this time

[Sebzett1]

Soundtrack of broken dreams.

[acequat]

first time i heard this song was pretty much by accident because i didnt expect to hear any music in the game's pause menu. but when i actually listened to it i just said to myself: thats definitely the best maffia theme i've ever heard in my life. just imagine a scene of some depressed mobsters sitting in a dark room at a table with their guns, money and drugs. empty people, empty because they did what they had to. this song gives me the creeps (in a good way)! nice job rockstar!!

[MyGoretex]

pains theme song...great

[xMxExtra1]

if u have monitor one time

u hear the guitar voice at 0:17

is excatly in the right of computer

[pierwszywolnynick]

I paused this game so many times just to listen to this tune

[TheMasterT97]

59,666 views Youtube needs a intervention

[Hector33195]

nice cute

[War3st]

I don't know why pepole don't like GTA 4. Maybe a lot of things in other GTA is better... But this is have this atmosphere of big city and crime.

[FaRfrOmOv3r]

gta 5 pleeeeeeeeeeeease

[zutexin]

i think is better to hear this on headphones

[dogusPiyadeci]

@zutexin yeah

[MrVercettiTommy]

sad song :((( XD

[sushimaster006]

this music is totally matching city crime

[JeckAubrey]

10 people got killed by Vlad in "Uncle Vlad" mission

[PauloMattos2012]

A cold song for a cold city.

[glmppereira]

Anyone got teh tab for this music?

[Bryaniswwe]

@scarlettmarcianna Or Dimitri and Bulgarin made 5 accounts each to dislike this video

[deathknigt3000]

this is the music you will hear on your way and in heaven

[magicaIpineapple]

@Supernoxus

[PharsaNets]

Gotta love the national street theme for Russia.

[UncleRecolour]

[HeyAWoodElf]

[Spirit9Ahmedm9]

dimitri you fucking betrayer !

[GrandTheftAutoTW]

This is masterpiece

[187BURNZY]

this song makes me think about the time with i droped my sandwich in the attic

[Chupopy]

This song makes me feel like I'm in a dark room waiting to kill

[retrokid1992]

R.I.P. Kate McCreary :(

[magicaIpineapple]

@retrokid1992

fuck you

[5w1tchx2xB345txMod3]

This song makes me think of snow and russia... and murder lol

[FuzzyThoughts]

Aw Niko...Out of all GTA's, Niko is my Favorite lead character. Next to that is Tommy Vercetti. But yeah, Niko's on the top! <3

[Pieisround68]

@FuzzyThoughts Mine are Niko and CJ. But Niko's number 1 to me too.

[Pedr0Diniz]

The best game I have played. EVER. This song kinda makes me sad and feel nostalgic, because this game should not have ended.

[Ginraiden]

@Pedr0Diniz Damn True bro

[TheKurdhater]

@Pedr0Diniz I agree but Liberty city was getting repetitive almsot every game was in liberty city

[Pedr0Diniz]

@TheKurdhater This was the first GTA I played seriously :P

[xCrazyKidz421x]

I'll be honest when i first played i killed , robbed, and blew up places and attacked police but the second time i played i didn't kill much civilians, police (for no resone) or robbed(for no resone) and blew up randome things, kinda played it how it would of been in a movie...i broke the rules of GTA didn't i :,(

[THESchwarzLion]

@xCrazyKidz421x lol that's so true!

Exactly this happened to me but i stoped making bullshits like shooting people for no reason or cheating even i can do the mission or something else, just cheating to do it faster, but i've started playing cool at San Andreas, i've deleted the old savegame made like hell then i have start ''new game'', GTA IV from the start i've played it like a movie :D

[grandtheftauto1233]

@xCrazyKidz421x I know how you feel.

[coolguy2072]

this music reminds me to all the bad things i did in my life

[Noble7JavixD]

this music does not help when I had to decide ... D:

[Noble7JavixD]

esta musica no ayudaba cuando se tenia que decidir... D:

[Madnam]

I remember pausing the game to think when Niko finally met Darko and had to decide. This music didn't help.

[untouchableevozone]

good old times :´(

[playstation1331]

this song is messed up my brain is massed when i listen to this LOAL dont feel good DONT LISTEN this for your own good ... It will make you to take your dad's gun go outside and kill ALL of your FRIENDS ... No Comment

[djw343424]

This sounds awesome through headphones

[xXviceCityXx]

i love this music its awesome

[shinyluckyarceus9214]

this sucks for me because i bought the game for pc and i installed it then when i played the game i had the missing textures bug then i uninstalled it and re installed it and it did the same thing and after that i updated my pc drivers and graphics card and it still didn't work so after that i gave up you guys are lucky to enjoy such a great game

[mihecman123]

@shinyluckyarceus9214

I had same problem.Buy better graphic card like Nvidia GTX 560 or some ATI make sure that u look RAM and speed of graphic card if that doesent work u need atleast 4Core CPU

[lamaslayeggs11]

when ever i lisen to this it creeps me out

[xCrazyKidz421x]

@lamaslayeggs11 it also freaks me out :( also makes me feel depressed, try listening this in a dark room at gloomy bright night with the moon like shining threw your window, it's like "what happens now!?" D: ......lol

[MrEfe88]

outstanding

[Wierdoinc]

this is what it sounds like inside Niko Bellic's brain

[90GermanBlood90]

@Wierdoinc best comment to describe this! thumb up

[90GermanBlood90]

@Wierdoinc But i have to admit, it sounds really sad...hearing this makes me feel a little bit sad and I can understand all the things niko is doing!

[Wierdoinc]

@90GermanBlood90 well GTA IV is a pretty sad story.

I mean most people mess around and go on killing sprees and drive super fast, but that is just the game. If GTA IV was a movie or a book I don't think the character of Niko Bellic would be doing those things.

through all the game you get hints and sometimes even straight out info that tells you Niko Bellic never wanted to be a bad man and that he wanted to do what was right. Niko is just a man struggling for survival and wish things different.

[90GermanBlood90]

@Wierdoinc Yes...But thats like it really sounds in his head, you are absolutely right!

[JamesBondFan001]

@Wierdoinc Sometimes I wish it was a movie or a book. Hell, even a TV movie.

That way, you could show the whole thing with the revenge ending, and then show the deal ending next time.

[naedanger123]

@Wierdoinc You are the first guy on Youtube I've seen in 3 years to have two of his comments in same top comment bar. Genuine grats! Shows you are actually pretty good at typing excellent comments.

[vars280287]

@Wierdoinc Isnt' that case with almost all the people who get into this business?

[FelipexProductions]

@Wierdoinc wow...that is just how i felt when i was playing the game

[ZombieCrazy100]

@Wierdoinc Gta IV Storyline is more deep and realistic than the Expansions, Pitty i couldnt get the IV, i just boight EFLC

[waddledee1000]

@Wierdoinc GTA IV had the best storyline. All the other GTA's were good, but had I dunno. Didn't feel the dark themes in it. But GTA III and LCS's storyline you could take serious.

[OldDogPooper]

ha ur right

[sLeighTkiLLa]

@Wierdoinc yeah its very much is.

[xXBlueeSkyXx]

6 died while listening.

[fuzzball52392]

awsome russion stuf

[Horidikanas]

I think we need a download link

[S1MCNitusaG2]

@Horidikanas listentoyoutube dot and you know the rest com

[StraightThugLife420]

@FallenComrades

he is a serbian, he speaks serbian with Roman :)

[StraightThugLife420]

this music make me have chills 

[Joenoha]

God ...This game is always awesome !

[mihecman123]

I like that Niko is from Serbia

[War3st]

Just AWESOME :)

[Goststriker]

I think some of this was used in a dubstep song...I just can't remember, but it sounds so familiar.

[luckylex]

@Goststriker yeah i think it was a 16bit song

[Goststriker]

@luckylex Found it randomly! It was a 16 Bit song, Texaco!

[CLAUD21212]

Sam an Dan Houser should write also a GTA 4 novel, it will be a bigger succes than Harry Potter Novels :)

[THESchwarzLion]

It's like the action, the fireguns , the cops, the gangs that remain in pause and this is the quiet version of the ''open-action'' version :D lol , that's in my mind right now listen to this, everything seems on stop for some seconds or minutes

[GPOxGAMING]

2:03 I love that epic drum roll.

[Augustus4FlyingIsles]

Eerie sounding perfectly fits niko bellic as his theme song they should of made dlc of his past I would've bought that shit.

[THAREALDAN]

Creepy music. At parts it sounds like a movie when a character is about to have a big important moment.

[MrPiekarPL]

very good. Thank you very much man for upload this music.

[77Punked]

Pausing the game made you feel more like a Russian badass then actually playing the game. GTA4 minus bromance. One of the best games ever made imo.

[mattaddison19]

Yeah, first time I paused the game and went to another room and I heard this.. I was thinking, who the fuck is making that sound? I thought it was some next satan film on the telly downstairs loool..

[thereisonly1chaquan]

i kinda think the theme fits the game

[TheUltravioletLight]

Lol, no way. Mafia 2's pause theme is wayyy better than this.

I purposely pause my game to get some of that.

Check it out.

[TheBL00DAssassin]

@TheUltravioletLight then go listen to it,you retard

[TheUltravioletLight]

@TheBL00DAssassin Shutup, you poop.

[TheBL00DAssassin]

@TheUltravioletLight poop?,you can't say shit?,dude it's the internet lmao you can say anything and not get in trouble

[TheUltravioletLight]

@TheBL00DAssassin Well yeah, I can say it. But there's no point. I only swear when I'm mad. Whatever. Let's not even waste my time. I'm tired.

[TheBL00DAssassin]

@TheUltravioletLight Then don't waste your time writing a comment saying that Mafia 2 pause theme is better,fucktard

[magicaIpineapple]

@TheUltravioletLight

LOL DON'T MIND ME JUST POSTING AN OPINION WHICH DIRECTLY CONFLICTS WITH THAT OF EVERYONE ELSE WATCHING THIS

[Jasonhb07]

Feelings of nostalgia hit me every time I listen to these songs. I'll never forget harassing people on Xbox live in free mode, good times. There will never be a developer like Rock Star again.

[Mysterious0Bob]

@Jasonhb07 Nostalgia? This game isn't even three years old. And Rockstar isn't going anywhere.

[Jasonhb07]

@Mysterious0Bob I didn't know my comment would make anyone mad. Not much must happen in your life in three years, but in mines it does. Everyone is entitled to their own opinions, I suggest you keep yours to yourself like civilized people do. ;)

[Bodybuildinq]

@Jasonhb07 Keeping your opinions to yourself... On YouTube? Are you some sort of retard?

[Jasonhb07]

@Bodybuildinq Maybe I should of said biased/judgmental/smug/snobbis­h opinion, there is a different between constructive opinion and some dumbass who values his views over everyone else before even knowing their motives behind it.

[JessNanoscript]

I was home alone, and paused the game. I could here this music from downstairs. It was fucking creepy shit. It was only 9pm. I get goosebumps every time this song plays.

[LuigiMan270]

i heard this at night when it was quiet and gloomy and it was scary as fuck, seriously, felt like something weird and scary was ganna happen. someone should go in a dark carage at a quiet night, close the door, leave the windows open and listen to this. brings chills

[Killert52]

i know damn well niko isnt russian cause he says hes not in the game..what language is he speaking o.o

[Infinif28]

@Killert52 european

[RANGERmw2]

@Killert52 hi is a serb

[StraightThugLife420]

@Killert52

serbian, Niko Bellic is a serbian .

[Killert52]

@StraightThugLife420 see i said that before to someone and they started saying theirs alot of different groups of serbs..i remember Dimitri calling niko serbian too.

[rsmssss]

thumbs up if rockstar made your life better

[apocalipsenerd]

it self repeats or is 9 minutes?

[rsmssss]

Anyone know where i can get an mp3 version of this?pls

[EAmuels]

@rsmssss google vid2mp3

[rsmssss]

This song describes Niko's life before Liberty City, all he's been trough and all the suffering. It fits well with Slavic peoples view on life on how many sacrifice they have to do just to survive opposite to all we know as the "American dream".

PS: For those who don't know the story of Niko and if you don't want to waste your life play Grand theft auto IV it will worth one of few games that are not full of American stereotypes.

[CtbaSkater01]

this shit makes me sad, fuck :(

[SerbiaMaNiAC]

This is so damn emotional. It's the theme of sadness and depression.

[Real1244]

over the summer gta was all i played it depressed me

[bigvarunseth]

when ever i feel sad, i play this song.. :'(

[Robosnop]

@Marc1998Scotland Did you just spoil me the end of the game ?!

[kkwik5]

Cold War music!!!

[jonathan46jonathan]

I remind waking up to the pause menu with a bunch of friends just passed out and I just started listening to this song for a few minutes in the middle of the night, crazy shit.

[MarjoSpineL]

he is serbian, i can confirm that since i speak the language

[tony38727]

@MarjoSpineL Did you live with Nico, or see him, asked if he was Serbian?

[MarjoSpineL]

@tony38727

in fact i did, we go way back as friends, was my schoolmate in primary school

dumbass

[tony38727]

@MarjoSpineL Heres a hint, sarcasm doesn't make you look smart when you don't supply evidence for a claim.

[MarjoSpineL]

@tony38727 @tony38727

in fact i can:

in the first cutscene, when niko arrives to liberty city and roman picks him up, niko says something in serbian, roman apparently doesnt understand him and the dialogue goes like this:

niko: whats the matter, you forgot OUR language?

roman: your english is better than my SERBIAN.

believe me, i am smart

till next time

[gretschbriansetzer]

@tony38727

its all about paying attention what is going on

[CtbaSkater01]

@MarjoSpineL

noo he is brazilian, hahaha'

joking.. ;)

[badmanigga]

scary !!!

[LevvyVision]

he is yugoslavian.

[MrRatman134]

tbogts pause music is better

[MischkaRussak]

I hear this song and think, what is the meaning of life?

This song is so awesome!

If I hear I have to think ONLY!!

[SuperDJGreg]

There was a moment, at the beginning, where Roman's saying, that he even forgot his native SERBIAN.

[FULLMETALALCHEMlST]

Бога я люблю эту игру! Я всегда хотела на сегодняшний день парни здесь, хотя, потому что я девушка]:

[cr4yv3n]

depressing :(

[SuperDJGreg]

Niko's serbian, he told that in a game.
