Civilization 1 Music

[Zukhov1945]

I don't get why Mao and Stalin keep showing in Civ games, this is recent history and for sure these are NOT the heroes of China and Russia.

[ZuluCatsTheMispeller]

@Zukhov1945 Mao Tse-Tung was one of the best Chinese leaders for leading them into a new age. He helped shape them from a struggling country that kept getting raped by Western powers into a Super power to rival America. Stalin helped the USSR form again into a super power to once again rival America. Gheghis Khan is seen as a mass murderer in some countries and Napoleon is sometimes seen as an anti-christ. so why not have Mao and Stalin? Lenin might be a better choice. It depends on their impact

[DARVGH1]

0:33 Lavender town?

[ZuluCatsTheMispeller]

blood upon the risers as America's theme?/? Not my choice but I like it

[BlakeFalling]

@plouf79 That is a crook, a symbol of devine authority.

[plouf79]

Why does Ramesses have a candy cane ?

[debelabibica]

Alexander the macedonian ;)

[Mpower277]

Personally was hoping it was the DOS version of the tunes....at least i think it was DOS. The beats definitely were different than these,

[finalcut75]

Ramses has been working out... I think he is on the juice. Those biceps are bigger than his head

[EcoGlo]

Montezuma's theme sounds like the theme for Civ II.

[pixelyfilms]

@EcoGlo That's true and actually the montezuma soundtrack was still used until civ4

[lilredcutie0]

Lincoln - Will kidnap your child in the darkness of the night

Chocolate Gandhi - nom nom nom.

Napoleon - Suffered a series of strokes and is now unable to smile

Peter - holding a McDonalds french fry he dipped in ketchup

Mao - Ahhh the sun's in my eyes!

Elizabeth - WTF?

[pixelyfilms]

the German and Greek songs are the best

[KingKong948]

Stalin was not Russian he was Georgian lol

[TheAsymmetrical]

Elizabeth... AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA What the FUCK?

[Loomr]

who the hell would want to play with a mass murderer like Stalin ..

[ScreamCancer]

@Loomr Mao is interesting person too

[debelabibica]

@ScreamCancer Genghis Khan is a peace bird

[ZechsMerquise73]

I love the Alexander music. And Nudist Colony Gandhi.

[BVargas78]

And Ramesees, otherwise Will Smith when he goes out in secret on a thursday night :)

[SuperSheo]

Mao is soooo yellow XD

[PatPlayz]

Ghandi looks funny XD

[Rachenwut]

[Faqquell]

[MrPreds10]

[Johanitteren]

Why is Alexander hugging a butter knife?

[Runazarag]

ghandi looks like with all respect to him ... like a shit

[Comrade2face]

the amiga version has way better music it seems than the pc ms dos one

[Ynffy]

Montezuma looks like a pimp!

'

[TDH551]

[snes317]

Poor Gandi

[IcaroMadalena]

2:38 espada torta

[MuratArkin]

They're all so scary

[FundaiX]

You think Ghandi looks scary enough in Civ 4 and 5? Ghandi Shirtless in Civ 1 tops all those combined

[BallisticWic]

Ha gahandi looks like herman cain

[theGaminggrounds]

I played this before and after school for like 2years! I was around 9 when I started to play Civ 1 =)

[ceyhunatil]

ahahaha for germans they made turkish march XD

[ShadowFox37]

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSS, MOZART'S TURKISH MARCH FOR FREDERICK

[slapkickinmule]

Genghis khan looks like a black dude?

[Doomguy2112]

Why does Stalin look like Saddam Hussein?

[Ninjadude2012]

@Doomguy2112 or is it saddam that looks like stalin... i think thats what suddam was actually going for.. really thats what i heard in history class.

[DeliciousPoop]

@Doomguy2112 well he came first....... so i guess the question should be how is it that another dictator looked just like stalin?

[Havanabananaman]

looks like you're playing against ape lincoln

[FacepunchForums]

Jeez Ghandi, put some clothes on

[PotatoNirvash]

the America's theme to me sounds threatening. O_O

[BlindPriest81]

@PotatoNirvash I don't think its threatening, though I never expected to hear the battle hymn of the republic in a minor key. I like it more when it'd be played more cheerfully

[PotatoNirvash]

@BlindPriest81 maybe threatening wasn't the word I meant to use. but it just sounds uncomfortable.

[Guillidan]

@BlindPriest81 Well, if they made Lincoln in Civ 5, it would be a great war theme.

[Zylo587]

Sound Blaster. Hell Yeah!

[TomTrix99]

On the amiga version, what is alexanders theme here, is actually the Stalins theme.

[AegisLupus]

What was the greeks theme?

[neworleansnatureboy]

What was the American theme?

[KyleMcCloudSr]

@neworleansnatureboy The American theme is the Battle Hymn of The Republic.

[neworleansnatureboy]

@KyleMcCloudSr Ah ok..

[EgaoNoGenki]

This game came out when I was in Kindergarten. Good thing I didn't start on the Civ craze until Civ II in middle school; I might have cried upon seeing a lowly phalanx destroy a mighty battleship. That would be like Ewoks destroying AT-STs. Hey, wait...

[Guillidan]

From the looks if things, Frederich, seems to be enjoying his theme song, while at the same time, Napoleon hates his.

[fredofasgarnia]

@Guillidan Funny really, when you consider that Napoleon actually had La Marseillaise banned during his reign as Emperor!

[Guillidan]

@fredofasgarnia Well, he was Corsican.

[danisl17]

lol, the egypt song is the same in civ iv

[SporeFreak2010]

o-O

[MidasRK]

and the greeks..

[MidasRK]

the one of russia is so... extremely russian... xD no idea why, however I like that of the romans, the egyptians, the indians because they are still being used xD

[ArbitraryWater]

It's kind of funny how most of these themes ended up in Civ II, albeit less MIDI-fied.

[MidasRK]

@ArbitraryWater even in civilization 4 they are still used

[RussianShrek]

the chinese guy is so yellow!!

[StefanKaleta]

I think the PC version sounds better. Or atleast VERY different... This one sounds like its dance music

[kacknoobdeluxe]

Stalin has a Joint XD

[derstaemezocker]

waht holds mao in his hands? a communistic book?

[MsrBernadotte]

@derstaemezocker It's " Quotations from Chairman Mao".

[EpicZantetsuken]

i never played this game (i've only played civ 2 and civ 4) but i like the 8-bit music. in fact, this game sounds like it has a better soundtrack than civ 2.

[naruck15]

Brush your teeth 4:12

[naruck15]

Why are Gandhi, Genghis Khan, and Montezuma so dark?

[naruck15]

Babylonian theme sounds like ewok theme

[katricetina9]

Abraham Lincoln the pedophile, Alexander the homosexual, Stalin the pimp, and Montezuma the Beverly Hills resident (the plastic surgery signals he's from there).

They really screwed up this time.

[metalsonicdoll]

@katricetina9 alexander the great actually was homosexual, but im sure you already knew, msot people do, but then again many people dont

[katricetina9]

@katricetina9 And Shaka's wearing lipgloss.

[iRadiatedBox]

WTF!!! GHANDI LOOKS LIKE A CHOCLATE BAR!!!! LOL

[franciscolpo1]

Elizabeth I is a zombie !!!

[derstaemezocker]

@franciscolpo1 yes.... RUN SHE WILL EAT YOU!

[Blasted9001]

2:57 I can break these cuffs! AAAAARGH...!

[iainhead]

Stalin...Mao...Wheres Hitler?

[Gallean88]

In case anyone's wondering, Lincoln's music is a minor version of the Battle Hymn of the Republic

[Ridgwaycer]

Nice. Stalin's theme is also in Civ 4. Now if I only knew what the song was called...

[karlosexpert]

@Ridgwaycer It's called the "the volga boatmen".

[Anony1200]

Lincoln's "happy" expression will be the last thing I see before I die.

[MrStarmat]

Russian music too

[MrStarmat]

Lincoln music is pretty cool.

[TheHKY09]

ELIZABETH LOOKS LIKE A MAN!!!

xD

[ElphabaLUVFiyerro]

@TheHKY09

she looks like mini-me from Austin Powers

[daRaginCajun]

@ElphabaLUVFiyerro Holy crap! You're absolutely right!

[sedjetra]

@TheHKY09 NO, it's Volandemort ^ ^

[PatPlayz]

@TheHKY09 True XD

[ILSTrevMUN]

Oh wow. So all the themes I heard in Civilization II were actually updated versions of stuff from Civilization I?!

I had no idea! I'd played Civ I on the SNES; they used none of this music there.

[Dartaen]

Does anyone know the name of the Roman theme?

[DemonEyesSan]

I remember my cousin saying that the start of Stalin's theme sounded like milk shake farts.

[TheChosenOneOfRussia]

what is the name of stalin theme?

[Citylife10]

@TheChosenOneOfRussia Song of the Volga Boatmen. It's actually quite an epic song.

[TealiaAida]

@TheChosenOneOfRussia Volga boatmen

[TheChosenOneOfRussia]

@TealiaAida i aready know.

[Krowsis]

Wow great upload. This takes me back when I was pulling all nighters on my Amiga500. What song is played for the greeks?

Nice work Sheffers78

[jonatan99]

@Jeferiaz Dobra......widzę, że nie łapiesz :P

[jonatan99]

@Jeferiaz No przecież Mozart ! W.A. Mozart .... poczytaj o nim :P

[jonatan99]

@Jeferiaz No tak.......co w tym śmiesznego Jef ? ;)

[Strangelovewalking]

Thank you for posting!

Does anybody know what the name of the English music is? [5:40 min]

[mnrbllr]

@Strangelovewalking I am also looking for the name of that music, did you happen to find it yet?

[mnrbllr]

@Strangelovewalking I found it "Sinfonie de Fanfares" enjoy...

[Nikioko]

@Strangelovewalking: Jean-Joseph Mouret, Fanfares avec une suitte de simphonies mêlées de cors de chasse, 1st movement (Rondeau).

There is a nice version here: youtube.com/watch?v=1c_pJpkVjG­Y

[horg]

dude, so much souvenir,,,

[seafireliv]

wow, this brings back the old memories. Funny how you can`t get Stalin in the modern day game! But you can with mods.

[yobdior]

Thanks for uploading!! It's a real shame you didn't include all the German anthemn though, I liked that one best :-)

[Pelemeni]

how does the song call by the germans, plz?

[sheffers78]

The German song is the Turkish March(Rondo Alla Turca ) by Mozart.

[Anony1200]

@sheffers78 DID YOU KNOW:

The reason that it plays the Turkish March as opposed to Goldberg Variation 4 like in all other versions is a mistake.Originally,instead of the Germans,there were to be the Ottomans-but they were replaced at the last minute.The music still exists in the files of all versions,and the amiga version just plays it instead of Fredrick's theme.

True story.

[yobdior]

@Anony1200

I'm not sure it was really a mistake though. They had 2 occasions to choose the 'correct' file (A500 and A1200 versions), and yet they still chose Turkish March. I reckon they decided that regardless of the name, the music sounded better.

[Nikioko]

@Pelemeni: Piano Sonata No. 11 KV 331, 3rd mv. (Rondo alla Turca) by W. A. Mozart

[EricBarbman]

Thanks !!!

[bpeck77]

Thanks for posting! No one has posted Civ 1 music before. Now we need the original PC music for each leader!

[ka671q12]

dunno what could have possibly made you put this on youtube but im glad you did!

[sheffers78]

@ka671q12 - It was a combination of to much time on my hands and that nobody had posted the games music on YouTube.

[YoungGarrett]

Let's disco dance Hammurabi!

DYNOMIIIIIIIIITE!
