I Dont Want To Set The World On Fire Lyrics

Artist: Horace Heidt

I DON'T WANT TO SET THE WORLD ON FIRE
Horace Heidt
- words and music by Eddie Seiler, Sol Marcus, Bennie Benjamin and Eddie Durham

I don't 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

I've lost all ambition for worldly acclaim
I just want to be the one you love
And with your admission that you feel the same
I'll have reached the goal I'm dreaming of

Believe me!
I don't want to set the world on fire
I just want to start
A flame in your heart

Truly a wonderful song. :)
by Ichimaru on 8/28/2008 10:20pm
This song is one of my Favorite fifties classics. Just so beautiful... Might sing it to a future girlfriend.
by Ecphora on 10/4/2008 2:28pm
A great song and PERFECT for the Fallout 3 video game.
by Falloutman on 10/29/2008 8:08pm
I agree with Ecphora. It's a great song, and it fit the intro to Fallout 3 very well. I wish I could find out where to download it...
by IrishViking on 11/3/2008 3:14pm
iTunes has it actually. They've got a lot, the original and the one from Fallout3 is by The Ink Spots on their Greatest Hits (Remastered) CD.
by Morten on 11/10/2008 3:58pm
I cant belive i realy love this song. It must to be my worship to the fallout series. I know its the intro in fallout3, and best song in the Brotherhood of steel radio, but its reminds me equaly back to the best game the world have ever seen. Fallout2.
by Anders on 11/16/2008 9:37pm
It so nice that this site allows easy commenting. And it warms my heart to see that we all came here after playing fallout :)

take care
by Vinny on 11/19/2008 2:00am
Yes fallout 3 lead me to this song, of course it's a great one to send a female, especially since it is obscure and you can claim you wrote it for them... hahaha
by sunb.rus on 11/19/2008 10:47am
it's brilliant.lyrics are perfect.so simple, but so sensual.
by Ruvyn on 11/19/2008 6:50pm
Fallout 3 took this classic and gave it too a new generation... And I'm loving it to death.
by Mikkel on 11/20/2008 3:21pm
Great song, and to sing this for future gf would be win I think :p
by Pariahsama on 11/26/2008 5:02am
A true Masterpeice, heh. I remember I sang it for a talent show in high school...ahhh, the bad old days. Anyhow, it was perfect for Fallout 3.
by Chabo on 11/27/2008 4:57pm
Best song in the world! Fallout series rocks! Love the song Maybe in the outro of Fallout 1 :P
by tcj2k8@yahoo.com on 11/28/2008 10:11pm
I'd like to hear Bono of U2 sing a version of this song. Anyone remember U2's version of the old Cole Porter tune 'Night and Day' for the "Red, Hot, and Blue" charity CD? Smokin'.
by falloutfan on 12/2/2008 9:49pm
i agree with u anders
by FalloutFanToo on 12/9/2008 6:20pm
Shame Fallout 3 didn't live up to this quality song.
by Fallout3WasShit on 12/15/2008 6:14am
I wish they had used this for fallout 2 or something, since it was actually a fallout game
by rank 65 cod4 and cod5 foo on 12/22/2008 9:07am
that song is beast...so is fallout 3
by Dingsingdong on 12/23/2008 2:35pm
Its a Great song i gfound it after playing fallout 3 too what a coincidence =D
by James on 12/26/2008 6:31pm
Fallout 3 was a very good game, and this is a good song.
by adiaz on 12/29/2008 1:16am
i spent about 60 hours on fallout3 and never got tired of this beautiful song, i love it.
by ObligatoryCoverGuy on 12/29/2008 2:45pm
I think that a screamo version of this would be brilliant, someone'd have to flesh it out a bit though.
by Aldaris on 1/12/2009 2:32pm
This is a beautiful song. I hope this song never gets old. Fallout U did a good job finding this song. ^^
by Fallout =oblivion on 1/13/2009 6:07pm
Don't you guys mean oblivion with guns and mutants?
by Jennifer W. on 1/18/2009 2:02pm
This song is also in the obscure film "Wilder Napalm." I love it. My dad - when he was alive - would play it on the piano and sing it, too. My husband plays Fallout 3 and I go over to the TV whenever the song is on.
by Chixor on 1/20/2009 2:49pm
If you want the Fall Out 3 version of this song, you can get it on Itunes. It's by the Ink Spots.
by Fallout Luver xP on 1/20/2009 9:37pm
i love this song :] its a classical that i just love and it fit fallout 3 perfectly and i think it would be great to sing like at ur wedding or something i think i would sing it to my wife at my wedding :D
by Luke on 1/24/2009 4:31pm

by Stuck in my head on 2/18/2009 10:59am
And cant get it out. This is a good song. And actually from the fortys.
by Lone Wanderer on 2/21/2009 4:46am
Great song for a great game
by Johnny on 2/22/2009 5:56pm
That's why classics can't get old. They simply rox. By the way, fallou, as oblivion, is a kick ass game.
by One love on 3/9/2009 10:28am
This is such an easy way of commenting. Every website should have this. This song warms my heart when I listen to it.

by Fallout Boy on 4/1/2009 5:54am
the creators originally wanted the son for Fallout, but could not obtain the license for it and so had to go with 'maybe' also by the ink spots
by Austen on 5/6/2009 9:50pm
fits perfectly


great song
by Jester131 on 5/15/2009 7:04pm
I came here because of Fallout 3 as well and - yes!!! - I totally love this song. I also love the Theme-Song from Bioshock "somewhere beyond the sea" by Bobby Darin -> check it out!
by Jack on 5/18/2009 7:20am
its like gears of war's theme song, just perfect for the game, you guys, if you havent already, should look up mad world-gears of war on youtube, its just perfect
by Lalala on 6/10/2009 12:59pm
Amazing song.
I love hearing it in Fall Out 3.
by polo on 7/9/2009 3:27am

by sloppapom on 10/25/2009 4:43pm

by The simpsonsdidit on 10/26/2009 10:35am
This song is on treehouse of horros season 19 I think. And fallout is an awesome series and it works perfectly.
by Cpt Price FTW on 11/7/2009 8:44am
Great song, good it into the game, etc.

btw, I'm pretty sure EVERYONE already knows that this appears in Fallout 3, and I'm sure everyone came here so that 10 year-olds could say Oblivion was better.
by Sophie<3inkspots on 11/19/2009 3:54pm
If you like this you'll like all their other songs, try out: maybe, whispering grass and my prayer and see what you think :) bloody brilliant game & song!
by Leedsward on 11/27/2009 2:51pm
Sang it to a future girlfriend- thank goodness I have the voice for it!
by Mr Unknown on 12/2/2009 3:24am
Without fallout 3 this song would be still dead even if fallout gave this song a different meaning by making it the mainsong for a world destroyed by nuclear weapons.
by fallout 3 obsessive on 12/18/2009 1:37pm
fallout3 best game ever(ive played since zx81).soundtrack is best ive heard.got it on my mp3,listen to it all the time,it takes me back into the game even when im not playing.eat,sleep,dream fallout 3
by The Pint Sized Slasher on 12/26/2009 12:35am
yea this song is great, but yall are faggots who think oblivion is better, way to go, now everyone know you take many cocks in the ass, go morrowind whores! FALLOUT 3 4 ever bitchez
by The Hellspawn on 1/15/2010 9:19am
Great song, after playing Fallout 1 (which together with the second they are the TRUE FALLOUT GAMES), i started to look for some more Ink Spots music, then F3 came out, the game wasn't at all what i was expecting (coming from a Fallout 1 and 2 fan it shouldn't be surprising), but hell at least it was a bit fun.
by :D on 1/24/2010 11:16pm
Fallout 3 FTW
by Yao Guai Tamer on 2/8/2010 6:09pm
Truly wonderful in so many ways...I find it mysteriously...strange that it led most of us from just playing fallout 3...
by Himura on 2/15/2010 6:54am
Chanel number 5 commercial? anyone?
by Reaven on 3/3/2010 12:10am
Best song ever only thing that should be mentioned other then this is civilization
by Spike on 3/8/2010 4:09pm

by I hate fallout 3 and this song also on 4/19/2010 3:04pm

by Rex on 5/14/2010 1:49am
Fallout3 + this song = the win

Easily the best song in the game.

Peace
by Shea on 6/19/2010 6:21am
this song is still good and always will be :P
by The Ron on 6/25/2010 6:03pm
I love the game and all the songs in it!! But this song is my favorite!!
by Some Asian boy who plays fallout 3 on 7/9/2010 9:34pm
If fallout didn't chose this song. None of u all would even know this song. So I just want to say......thank you. :'| fall out 3. My saver
by zippy on 8/14/2010 1:32am
One of my favorite songs, courtesy of Fallout 3
by BobbyBBrown on 8/18/2010 2:15am

i hope new vagas has songs as good as this one.
by Tree Dog on 9/9/2010 10:54am
aaaooo ! this is tree dog bringing the the lastest news !!
by Three Dog on 10/4/2010 5:02am
Horray for being able to spell the character's names right..

Anyone who thinks fallout 3 probably just was butthurt that they couldn't play it, for whatever reason. No xbox or shitty computer. Games don't win RPG of the year just for shits and giggles.
by barry on 10/12/2010 4:36am
we love this song we love it i love it
by josue on 11/8/2010 10:47pm
esta cancion es exelente fallout 3
by jan on 12/19/2010 12:17am
I was three years old when it was popular, and I still remember some of the words, although at that time I didn't understand it, but it had a wonderful tune and I like it, do I have a good memory or what?
by Boris Vladimir on 1/1/2011 4:09am
I love this song n' Fallout 3 too
It's wonderfull
by Isak on 1/10/2011 10:30am
Awsome song! I love the lyrics and the music. And when im associating it to Fallout 3 it gets even better!!
by Björn on 2/14/2011 3:43pm
I fell in love with this song from Bethesdas' Fallout 3, and now I can't stop singing it. Absolutely beautiful.
by dc! on 2/14/2011 6:14pm
Amazing song. Got totally stuck in my head, too. Fallout 3 gave it a new life!
by vu hoang an on 2/17/2011 4:54am
This song still haunting me even when I'm done with FO3.Three Dogs rules!!!
by Rayburn on 3/10/2011 8:58pm
Great song and easy to play too.
It's a shame I can't play and sing at the same time though. This would be great to play for my girl.

It's great to have been exposed to so much great music I never would have even thought about before, thanks to the Fallout games.
by Grand Marshal N.Arievii on 4/15/2011 5:19am
I love the Fallout 3 songs but this is by far the best in my opinion. I sang this to the girl i loved because it describes very well how i feel and it conveyed my feelings to her and now it has worked out. So i am happy to have found this lovely song and i will never forget it.
by fallout fangirl on 4/18/2011 7:00am
this song is simply to die for, and so is Fallout 3. My boyfriend and I are such hardcore nerds for this game that we made this "our song". :)
by A 13 years old boy on 5/25/2011 4:34pm
I am actually 13 and I love this song so much! I doesn't have to say that my friends don't have the taste to like it. XD
by DAWNKING98 on 6/7/2011 1:39am
I LOVE FALLOUT IT ROCKS THE 50s SONGS JUST MAKE IT SWEETER
by DAWNKING98 on 6/7/2011 1:41am
I LOVE FALLOUT IM JUST SAD THAT NEW VEGAS DIDNT HAVE THIS SONG KUDOS TO THE OWNER
by DAWNKING98 on 6/7/2011 1:42am
WATCH MY YOUTUBE VIDEOS ON DAWNKING98
by Irish671 on 6/7/2011 7:51am
Im glad to read that the younger generation is listening to real music.Im only 15 but ive been listening to big band music and swing ever since I was 8 years old.FALLOUT RULES and whoever said that the song should be screamo.Let me put it this way, never mess with a good thing.
by Gavranko on 6/7/2011 2:45pm
Really?There's a great song with its lyrics posted and all the comments are about the video game?Granted,it's a good game,but please,for the love of God,talk about the song. :D
by FALLLLLLOUT on 6/22/2011 12:47am
Of course Fallout 3 led us all here to this song
by lovejayde&fallout3 on 6/23/2011 10:05pm
me and my bf also love the game to pieces our fav song is the one that goes 'i say i'd move a mountain, and i'd move a mountain'...... we dont know what its called but if any of you could tell me what its called it would be much appreciated...
by Vegeta on 7/16/2011 11:28pm
Great Song.Hope they use this kind of song in fallout 4.
by @lovejayde&fallout3 on 9/23/2011 5:04pm
@lovejayde&fallout3, don't know if you could read this, but that song you mentioned is "Crazy He Calls Me" from Billie Holiday;) I love these songs!
by Nate on 9/28/2011 12:28pm
Nice song, but also a pseudo stalker song.
by GxEL on 10/8/2011 8:50pm
A truely wonderful,brilliant song.Thats why i love horace heidt.and its good to hear that song in FO 3 too.but , maybe is lovely too...Anyway i love that kind of songs ! :D
by cory on 1/10/2012 9:50am
fallout 3 is fuckin osun
by A cow on 1/17/2012 5:35am
Awesome just awesome!!!
by BETHESDA GEEK on 3/2/2012 2:12pm
Fallout 3 was much better than Oblivion. But in my opinion, Skyrim is the best. They did amazingly well on the graphics and gameplay. Awesome song by the way! I didn't care for it at first, but now whenever I listen to it, it reminds me of the good old days playing Fallout. Very Nostalgic.
by Fallout Master on 3/26/2012 2:22pm
^^Fallout 3 is the best game i've played by far.. skyrim gets boring after a month, so don't even go there man. skyrim is boring dragon shit. it's repetitive
by Shits about to get real on 5/28/2012 11:43pm
Does anyone else think that your player in fallout 3 should be able to kill children OTHER than in Tranquilty Ln.? Cause "Princess" pisses me off. ALOT!!
by Blaster Master on 5/29/2012 11:43am
We NEED Fallout 4-New Miami! NOW!
by Meep on 5/29/2012 2:55pm
the song of all songs on Fallout 3 ;3
by k.l. on 6/14/2012 11:46pm
Whenever I hear a shitty song and it gets stuck in my head, I push it out with this awesome song that actually makes sense.
by Tiwundies on 7/7/2012 3:54am
I love the fallout songs. they're my favourite. Especially heartache by the number
by Ulquiorra on 10/6/2012 3:37pm
thank fallout 3
by Alan Pearce on 10/7/2012 6:54am
This is a beautiful song first sung towards the end of the second world war. I remember my mother singing it just froom the song sheet. A lovely song which brings back so many memories for me.
by Renamon on 10/16/2012 4:44pm
this will be my reqweam
by Blaxbear on 11/30/2012 6:56am
I love this song, I sing it at work to my wife almost every day. If the world was ever going to end I would like this song to be the last one I heard.
by Love this song to death. on 2/22/2013 5:33pm
Me and my band are gonna put together a Metalcore cover of this!

DON'T WANNA HEAR IT THEN DON'T SEARCH FOR IT!
by Kieran on 4/19/2013 9:44am
This is a truly great songs another great from the fallout universe is "big iron"
by Dat GuY on 4/24/2013 6:11am
They should do this more often adding classic songs into modern games can't wait
by Cum Bubble on 5/22/2013 6:54pm
its a good song
by Jack Dane on 9/7/2013 12:25am
I'm rediscovering a treasure trove of Golden Oldies thru computer-gaming.

This one, I know from the opening scene of Fallout 3. Even if u dont play computer-games, if u like this song, take a peek at this. Spinechilling experience of atsmospheric awe from the song and scenery in combination.

Peace

by My name is "Juan" for now on 4/29/2017 9:04pm
I learned this song from Fallout 3 and as soon as I heard it I got it stuck in my head.Classical music is great.
by truefallout fan on 5/11/2017 9:02am
This is the best song for the best fallout ever
