Afternoon all,

I was wondering if you could help me indentify the song that was played on Radio 1 a couple of years back. I've got a feeling it was played during a mid-week disco with Colin Murray.

Cheers

Which GTA game is it from? It'll help enormously to track which one it is.

It was, and it became so well recognised and the demand was so high that it was then available to download.

If it is, then this is the classic. I love it, from the original GTA.

It was from one of the Grand Theft Auto games

I've got a feeling it could be Grand Theft Auto IV, or San Andreas.

I just wish they would do a RHD version, as I keep hitting other cars when trying to make a getaway grumpy

I think this was the track used for advertising a few of the GTA games - Flock Of Seagulls - I Ran

GTA London.

Was an Add-On for the Original GTA back in the day. Great great Soundtrack on it.

Never before had the PS had an Add-On Disc. Long before Downloads.

They used Welcome To The Jungle for San Andreas adverts.

While we're on about Grand Theft Auto, what soundtracks would you recommend?

The (80's) Vice City soundtrack is the best (IMO). Absolutely made the game.

I've got the music from GTA II (for PS1) on CD.

I have no CD player in my car frown

The original track for GTA is called "Grand Theft Auto" by "Da Shootaz".

The best soundtrack from any of the Games is the Wave FM cd from GTA Vice City.
The Original GTA soundtrack is also pretty awesome.

I grew up with the GTA games - mainy classic gaming hours. And there are still persistent rumours that a proper new UK version will be coming soon...
