Fallout 3 - Soundtrack - "I Don't Want to Set the World on Fire" by The Ink Spots

"I Don't Want to Set the World On Fire" is a 1941 song by The Ink Spots, used in the Fallout 3 intro. It was initially going to be used in the original Fallout intro, but Interplay was unable to get the license, so it was scrapped and "Maybe", another song by The Ink Spots, was used. A reference remained in the dialog, as Dane recites the first line.

It was also going to be used in the concluding movie for Van Buren, the cancelled Fallout 3 by Black Isle Studios. After the Prisoner decided which locations are to be nuked by B.O.M.B.-001, he was going to leave in the escape pod and the movie, showing the pod as it arcs over the Earth, would start, playing "I Don't Want to Set the World on Fire". Large nuclear blasts would be seen dotting the lands beneath the clouds.

[Lyrics] I dont want to set the world on fire I just want to start A flame in your heart In my heart I have but one desire And that one is you No other will do Ive lost all ambition for worldly acclaim I just want to be the one you love And with your admission that you feel the same Ill have reached the goal Im dreaming of Believe me I dont want to set the world on fire I just want to start A flame in your heart

[Spoken Word] I don't wanna set the world on fire, honey I love ya too much I just wanna start a great big flame Down in your heart You see, way down inside of me Darlin' I have only one desire And that one desire is you And I know nobody else ain't gonna do

[Sung] Ive lost all ambition for worldly acclaim I just want to be the one you love And with your admission that you feel the same Ill have reached the goal Im dreaming of Believe me I dont want to set the world on fire I just want to start A flame in your heart

Lol a world war 2 era American song talking about NOT setting the world on fire. Gotta love irony.

Ah i remember killing raiders,the enclave,aliens and just wondering around a wasteland while listening to this. Why dont they just make more DLC for Fallout 3
