  • Yeah, fallout brought me here, so what?

    If it wasn't for fallout, and someone told me he liked the 50's music, i would laugh at him.

    But each time someone tells me he likes songs like this, i give him a high five! I mean, thanks to that game i love these songs. Bless y'all

  • dat waren tijden met Guy Mitchell, Perry Como, Dean Martin  etc. pp. dat was nog muziek ! ! !

  • Loves <3

  • What a voice Guy Mitchell had. he was very popular in the early 50,s

  • I don't think this is the original recording, what to other fans think?

  • Thanks for the extensive bio information. Had a great voice and I like the production.

  • My reaction to the Steelers losing to the Broncos. :(

  • @jackram2h2 I dont feel sorry for you, Im a browns fan! LOL

  • My father had a huge record collection. I was born in '59 and I remember hearing him play this 45 often. I think the records didn't begin to wear out until we children (5) all learned how to change records on the record player.

  • beautiful one of my favorite songs EVER! not just in New Vegas

  • @YourFuturePresisdent you should also listen to bioshock soundtrack its totally gorgeous too!!!

  • I just have to thank New Vegas for exposing me to this great music, that frankly i never would of listened to as a 15 year old.

  • I won't say this is a good song from Fallout NW. This is one of the great songs that has been collected together to (re)apperar in Fallout. Without that game I wouldn't find a lot of awesome musics like this, Cry me a river, or Blue Moon. :)

  • To all those with the obsession of this being in new vegas /watch?v=WZniJO_EU4Q and skip too 1:30

  • i don't remember where i learn of this song, but i know it wasn't through Fallout, i don't play any video games, i'm too busy for that....I just love them old songs, Guy has another one called Singin the blues, can't pick which one i like best.

  • /v/ ...

  • You know what? I don't care that a good number of the people listening to this song learned about it through Fallout (myself included). I just came here to listen to this song, and the fact that so many people can find a reason to argue about the fact that a video game featured this song in its soundtrack really distracts me from it. Seriously, guys, what's the big deal?

  • @MASDERCHEEFOrigin  You are absolutely right.

  • @MASDERCHEEFOrigin I wasn't even thought of when the song was released in 1959. As such, I've spent most of my life not even realizing such a great song existed. It shouldn't matter where you learned it; the point is you learned a great song.

  • @MASDERCHEEFOrigin Hi (John1948Five) Be it a video game ... movie ... yeah it doesn't matter. Just that people are listening is great .. My mum's favourite music and she played it so much it rubbed off ... No matter how you get here just enjoy the music ...Thank You for uploading :)

  • he kinda looks like gary from FO3

  • Sometimes, when im wandering on that dastardly tiny map called new vegas, I wait for this song, then quit.

  • like this if you found this song NOT from "Fallout New Vegas"!

  • The Arizona Diamondbacks made it all the way to the Playoffs, it came down to the fifth game between them and the Brewers, and they lost by one point :( This is my new song

  • I love these songs. My dad had a cassette tape he recorded with old music. It broke about 6 years ago. I bought Fallout 3 and NV because I heard they were cool. Now I just play to hear good music. Me and my dad just let the Xbox run and we listen. I'm glad I was brought up listening to Johnny Cash and other old singers. Makes me different in that I know good music.

  • Damn you guys quit arguing and just listen to the song.

  • His heart is crippled.

  • This song is awesome

  • I agree with a 1997AwesomeDude, I'm 14 and this music is much better than todays. Like he said modern music is about...

  • @MrAvacadoes yeah im 15 and this is what you call real music..

  • Nice song

  • Thank god for Fallout games. I discovered so much music!

  • @hornick18 dont mension fall out because slayerkiller47.

    says that you need to get real friends he said it to me coz i mentiond fall out just letting u no =>

  • @MrCurtishall No I don't have a problem with fallout. I just said listen to decent music and stop begging for xbox live friends. Just go outside and get some friends you actually like, not someone you know nothing about. This will be my last response because this conversation is getting far off topic.

  • @hornick18 What...?

  • i love old music 1950s to 1990s, everything past 2000 sucks except one thing, irish punk and that is my one and only exception

  • I knew about this song before fallout NV

    i'm 14

    Why you ask me, Because Todays music is about getting drunk and Doing stupid things.

  • I'm a pre-teen and  after playing Fallout 3 and New Vegas I fell in love with this kind of music. (Yeah, im a pre-teen playing a rated "M" game, but i still thinks its awesome!)

  • @Maria199810 My nephew glanced over my shoulder just as I blasted the head off a Fiend and he begged me to let him play it. He only just turned six last month :P

  • @MCRdynamite i remember my first super mutant...1999 4 or 5 years old good times gooood times

  • @Maria199810 thats the basic population that played rated M games

  • Thumbs up if you first heard this while playing fallout.

  • @Alabenson the New Vegas version of this has (almost) same lyrics, but the way he sings it is different.

  • best song on the New vegas sound track! Who cares if a yau guai is about to kill me, i can die happy listening to this! not only that but its a great song from a time when music really mattered to people

  • @mEgaponies

    there are different covers.

  • I'ma HUGE metal fan, and i love music like this. This is my favorite song on new vegas. I also like "Big iron on his hip."

  • @IhearaHunter117 Wow it took a game to make you stop listening to shit and actually hear good music.

  • @slayerkiller47 Metal isn't shit. POP is shit. This is amazing. Listen to running with the wolves by korpiklaani and tell me metal is shit. We all can argue on music for hours, but ineviably, there is no shit music. (except pop.) Everyone has a different taste.

  • @IhearaHunter117 i honestly think todays music is crap. can you name a time you've heard a Ke$ha song and thought ''Damn this girls talented''

  • @slayerkiller47 And i seriously hope you're not steryotyping metal heads as people with giant colorwed liberty spikes and listen to the shitty metal when they play as fast as a lambo and growl. THAT is truly terrible music. Iron Maiden and Korpiklaani and rush are my favorite bands. I seriosly don't like most other metal songs, even though it's not my favorite songs. Judas Priest is also good. But don't insult other people's music, it just makes you look like an ass, no offense meant.

  • @IhearaHunter117 ****even though it's my favorite type of music Dx*****

  • did anyone else knew that he was born and from Yugoslavia?

  • @ihatenumbers1 which part?

  • @MazGazable this is not 'music from fallout:new vegas. Fallout used this song in their game.

  • @Guiltyhorse Of course. However, people will associate it with the game most because that's where they heard it first, more often than not. Misconceptions will always happen, sadly.

  • @Guiltyhorse thats exactly the song from fallout new vegas, but the version in fallout is just a little bit fixed ;)

  • @Lokiiiiii666 in fallout new vegas the end of this song was tweaked

  • @Guiltyhorse really???

    OMG is there truly some people that ACTUALLY DOESNT KNOW THAT???

    wow.

  • @supervegito2277 sadly yes...

  • I atccualy knew him when i was very young..around 3-4 years old...hes friends with my dad..he liked me alot.

    

  • well aint this a kick in the head?

  • If it's been on a pc-game or movie by a cool director, everyone's suddenly both aware and acceptive of something they'd normally dismiss as goofy and old school. I wonder if they know that the earth isn't flat... oh well, lets hope they make a game about it.

  • @Faxe90Swe Sorry but that's kind of a dumb opinion. If it wasn't for those movies or games, a lot of people wouldn't have access to the movie. I think it's great newer products have respect for the old stuff :P

  • @SirFancyBubbles

    I think you missed my point. My point is that this music per se all the sudden gets respect by the new generations. Music like this that hasn't been related to bloodbaths by a game or movie, will be frowned upon by the same generations. It simply isn't "cool" the way it is, it has to be related to something that is "cool"; then it's cool.

  • @Faxe90Swe That argument might be valid if it wasn't for the fact that this song is over 50 years old. It's not like everyone thought this song was stupid until Fallout brainwashed us into liking it. It's more a matter of first time exposure to a great classic. There's a reason it topped charts when it was released and there's a reason a lot of people like it now that they've heard it - it's just good music.

  • @Zer0Torrent

    Do you guys bury your music? I mean, how can you not be exposed to this kind of music? You make it sound as if this music is the musical equivalent to the Dead Sea scrolls. Of course, I can only speak for my country, but over here you will be exposed to this music even if you're not a Fallout player. And my experience has taught me that the majority of people of my age hate this music - until it plays in a pc game. Maybe it's just a Swedish thing XD

  • @Faxe90Swe Not to be mean, but yea. His argument was completely right. Young people in the United States aren't really exposed to this music. Unless of course it is played in a videogame.

  • @TheyCallMeWhiteKid

    No, you're not mean. If two out of two says this music is hidden from America's youth, I guess it's true. But isn't that really weird, that the kids of a country haven't heard the music that made their country famous in a musical sense? I mean, this music is a hallmark of America. Then again, I hear the majority of American kids don't know the name of their first president, so maybe it isn't so weird. It's a shame, really.

  • @Faxe90Swe All that is pretty true, except the last bit. It is a stereotype that Americans are pretty dumb. In fact, a few are. Yet George Washington is just as famous as Lady Gaga. Although if you were to ask the successes of William Taft, my bet would be the majority wouldn't know.

  • @TheyCallMeWhiteKid

    Yeah, there is a stereotype about American dumbness, but as I remember it they handed out a questionnaire and close to half of the participators had no idea who the first president was. But that's not unique for America, and it's a pretty recent development in the first place, I think. We got educational problems in Europe too. Sweden, for example, has a generation coming into worklife that have just tragic grades in mathematics (including me).

  • @Faxe90Swe It also depends on where and whom you test. If you take a group of kid's from an expensive prep school, I guarantee you everyone would be able to recite the first 10 presidents and all 50 states, whereas if you went to a public school in the suburbs of Detroit it would be significantly low.

  • @TheyCallMeWhiteKid -- That's because William Taft was a great man who wasn't afraid...but calling out union misbehavior means that you get the teachers unions against you--so your greatness won't be taught to the next generation. (Of course, the truly educated--i.e., non-public school/self-educated) are well aware that Taft was a great statesman (and justice), but not a politician.

  • @TheyCallMeWhiteKid

    It's sad that, even where I live, just south of the south in the US, most people like rap. Luckily, the old time music survives, and it will never back down.

  • This is Mr.New Vegas abd you're listening to radio new vegas.

  • from a time when you actually had to have a had a good voice to sing well

  • This man is really good, nice voice! I like this song so much

  • the sun is setting on the wastelands, the moon is full, i got some fresh brahmen steaks, campfire, harmonica and all is right with world!

  • Yes, a game introduced me to this song.

    Yes, it's beautiful. I actually find myself bringing my pip-boy up to pause the action when this song comes on. It's THAT good ;)

  • I don't have no heartaches with ma' brother Boone.

  • @TheKirk15 Lucky you! Cass won't give me the time of day!

  • The last single to hit #1 during the 1950s.

  • Wonderful Song ! Love it ! This is my favourite version ! He was a wonderful singer !  Thank you so much for uploading ! 5*****+

  • For some reason I think this sounds a lot like a Christmas song.

  • @Langsorigingaleia Might that be because a lot of Christmas classics came out of a similar period?

  • I sometimes still cry when I hear this song.

  • why does song cheer me up?

  • 2:34 YouTube video: Guy Mitchell singing Heartaches By The Number, written by Harlan Howard and published in 1959. The biggest hit version was recorded by Guy Mitchell on August 24, 1959. It reached the number-one spot on the Billboard Hot 100 for the weeks of December 14 and December 21, 1959. The recording was released by Columbia Records as catalog number 41476.

    February 27, 1927: birth of Guy Mitchell, American singer (d. 1999)

  • Yeah this is a great song and very catchy!

  • This was my new song for the Steelers after they lost the superbowl.

  • Man, besides the ranger with a..ummmm whatever on his hip, this is my favorite song ive ever heard from fallot :D

  • @Katethebait12 Big Iron

  • I used to have the original single from 1959; the 'B' side was Two Lips.

  • Shame the old music is disrespected by many.They are nice to listen too compared ot just THUMP THUMP THUMP. And it was a time when people actually sung, and didnt get machines to do it for them.

  • @ScavangePack i agree!

  • @ScavangePack dissing trance music are we?oh well, its true though.. I feel like a minority of people in their 20s that like trance and techno AND oldies(80's 60's etc).

    theres just something about these ones though.. I discovered them in new vegas and that makes half the song for me.

    back to song :)

  • @ScavangePack You are correct, this music is great and should not be disrespected by the younger crowd BUT you must understand, not all young people listen to is "Thump Thump Thump" Their music has lyrics too, Each and every person has a different personallity and a different taste, and even if it is Thump Thump Thump it is still their music, and what makes them unique.

  • @ScavangePack They listen to heart beats? Weird-never heard of it.

  • @ScavangePack so true.. its a shame what music has turned into nowa days

  • @ScavangePack im 12 and im with you on that

  • @ScavangePack The music back then was all about love,dance,etc and promoted it now its about violence and hate.

  • @Boondox1991 haha awesome :D

  • i accidentally disliked this. sorry

  • it sounds so diff than in the game

  • @jeff598 I think it sounds diffrent because they make it sound like its being played over an old radieo so the sound isen't top notch. That and you can't hear the occasional gunshots or screams.

  • @TheDeadApple this sounds maybe like a live version actually idk

  • Sure. i agree with you totally meatwad 8888. ' heartaches by the number ' is one fantastic hit. I love it.

    Azhar

  • 50s was the golden age of america

  • I feel these songs are different.

  • There is a reason why I don't like todays music like teen-pop, heavy metal and other modern type crap ever since I played Fallout 3 and started playing Fallout New Vegas. These Country/Classic tunes not only brightens me up but they sound good as well! As I type this comment out, I feel happy to be one of the millions of people who still enjoy Country Music.

  • Is it me or does he look a lot like Arnold Schwarzenegger in some of these pictures?

  • Damn this song is catchy

  • Just what I like to see on such a great song. 0 dislikes.

  • Love singing along to this while roaming around

  • I REMEMBER SEEING GUY MITCHELL ON RTE TV SINGING THIS SONG YEARS AGO

  • maeks me happy when im roaming about :)

  • I first heard this song on New Vegas, made me sad.

    :' (

    GREAT Song

  • the day that i stop hitting the replay button will be the day my world will end...

  • The original version is in the key of F instead G like New Vegas, just incase anyone was trying to play this.

  • *except

  • @TheEvilestPersonEver

    Rap... *shudder indeed*

  • @2BCBattlefield If only more new bands sang decent songs.... Or at least sang, instead of talking into an autotune.

  • @TheEvilestPersonEver

    Well there are "new" bands that are good though...

    And dunno, listening rap while in being drunk in the bar is pretty entertaining

  • @2BCBattlefield Some rap is great. Expect the mainstream rap sucks.

  • one of the few good songs in new vegas!

  • Man,why don't they have a real life radio station that plays great music like this!? :D

  • @bealtespip123 If you have a Sirius Radio (in the US at least) there are 40's and 50's stations.

  • @ps3beatswii I fly JetBlue a lot, love their SiriusXM radio 50's and 60s channels.

  • Love how games brings old songs to youngins

  • @TerrorWatcher As long as they stay off our lawns!

  • @TerrorWatcher Totally agree with you

    

  • @TerrorWatcher video games are the new music, since music sucks these days the more intelligent children shift to video games and that links them to stuff like this, and next generation games will suck and there will be something else.

  • @TerrorWatcher New Vegas got me into the Genre. I like this kinda music now.

  • For some reason this feels to christmasy. I'm probably try to play this when it christmas this year.

  • How did I go from rock/metal to this?... I guess I just like good music.

  • @Wll10441 haha me too

  • @Wll10441 DUDE same thing happened to me!

  • Just goes to show, good music defies taste. Except with rappers. Rappers are ignorant lol.

  • Great song! and totally agree with bwmcmaste!

  • Me and a couple of my friends are probablly the only ones at my school that likes 50s music. i love bob crosby, ink spots, etc etc etc. i <3 you fallout for one of the awsomest soundtracks ever

  • @XxOblivionxX2 Same with me! I love these oldies and I'm the only one in school that likes 1930-1970's, everyone these days like hip-hop and rap.

  • catchy

  • @Meatwad8888 amen to that XD

  • @Meatwad8888 it takes a game for you to hear this song :(

  • @TheS3cT10n8 Sorry to say :( But at least I got to hear it, and that game actually got me into 50s music :)

  • @Meatwad8888 ive always loved jazz but i never how good it cud be until i played F3. then after that i just love most 50s music! :p best shyt lolol

  • @Meatwad8888 my heartaches are when i die :( :D

  • @Meatwad8888 Ants!? I'm killing fucking deathclaws!!!! Maybe an Omerta here and there, but who can tell the difference between them, ya know?

  • @JohnTheKnightLord Whoops, replied to the wrong person, ignore that!

  • @Meatwad8888

    Whether Im gambling it up with some caravan at the casinos in new vegas, or just roaming the mojave wasteland this song keeps me sane...

  • yes! phew. my sister makes me isten to justin beiber! =( all day! finally some nice calassical music. =) 

  • Definately the best version of Heartaches by the Number!

  • Too Bas we doesn't have these great songs on the Frenchs radios...

    Love it.

  • @Hydroxica this is definitely the best song of the whole soundtrack. I could listen to this for hours...

  • man oh man do I miss the style of the 50's,sure i'm only 25 but credit is given where credit is due ;)

  • @Geeksunitedvideos Black mountain radio,ROCKS :)

  • Good tune. Mom had an album by this fellow when I was quite small. haen't heard any song of his since I don't know when.

  • Superbra sång och komp

  • I grew up listening to Guy Mitchell on the radio, this is magic!

  • @jean60m Damn your old.

  • @jean60m

    I wish I did. :/

  • great stuff!!

  • guy mitchel w hat great records so pleased to have lived in that error .

  • can anybody help me ... many years ago guy mitchell sang a song i cant remember the name of it

    but some of the lyrics where high high high is the gallow that waits for me , long is the rope that waits for me because of the girl anna maria OR anna loula or something

    they went something like that and was about a girl who commited a crime and tried to get him hung for it

  • Hello there , the title to the song is called HANNAH LEE. it was the flipside to CHIKA-BOOM agreat record.
