BioShock 2 soundtrack song list revealed

Considering the upcoming digital release of BioShock 2's soundtrack is, well, digital, you could probably just procure the track list from Amazon and grab the individual songs before its announced February 9 release date. Sure, you're not gonna get your ... uhh ... eyes on the fancy digital packaging, but you could snag all those classy tunes a full three days before the other kids on your block. Think about that!

Done thinking? Good, 'cause we've got more BioShock 2 music info for you -- there's also a way to enjoy the soundtrack this very second. How's that, you ask? Well, simple: just grab this iTunes music file or this WIndows music file and enjoy a taste of "Rapture Radio." To be clear, the tracks listed are no bearing on the game's official score which comes with the game's special edition. Head past the break for a breakdown of both the standard and deluxe editions (no prices are available yet).

Well I'm not shocked the deluxe edition has more songs.

Outside of how much is that Doggie in the window, I don't know any of those songs. At least by their title.

Praise the Lord and Pass The Ammunition is also a song by Serj Tankian. He's a cool dude!

Its a Lyric in a Dixie Chicks song. "Sin Wagon".

The "Praise the Lord and Pass the Ammunition" in the soundtrack is a World War II era song (look it up on youtube). An instrumental version is playing during the ballroom fight sequence in the launch trailer.

people who say no pun intended sound like grade a idiots

If the game turns out good, who cares how many developers it took?

It's supposed to be Artist - Song D:

It's supposed to be :D

The first Bioshock had a great soundtrack,here´s hoping the second can even top it.

How much is that doggie in the doggie in the doggie in the doggie in the window?

"to make a good game"
Awesome. Now I'll have one less ass to deal with in multiplayer.

O....M.... G... He is un-replyable. He should put in a leper house.

Yeah, isn't him purposely trying to break the comments system a reason to ban him?

What's the point? He'll just use one of the other dozen accounts he has on Joystiq.

At least he used proper grammar.

He didn't say "no pun intended," he said "no punt intended," which means he was going for it on fourth down. Who looks like the grade a idiot now? And when will let that damn avatar die? Please, update it with something slightly more fresh, like a serious cat, or maybe Vegeta from DBZ; anything!

So you won't play a game which you admitted looks good because of the number of developers it took to make it?

fail, sry

Don't apologize. Due to the apostrophes in his name, he is impossible to reply to. It's a glitch with Joystiq's system. In all likelihood he is well aware of this.

He's just a troll. He wouldn't listen anyway.

I was having a hard time getting excited for Bioshock 2, but due to the recent trailer, I'm extremely optimistic. I still feel that it's an unnecessary sequel, like the gaming equivalent of Braveheart 2, or something. But then I'm like, "Holy shit! Braveheart 2!?"

where the hell is somewhere beyond the sea - bobby darin?
that is the heart of rapture, it MUST be there.

I love the choices of music they chose to put into Bioshock one and now Bioshock 2. I thought it was genius that the big daddy in the most recent trailer was playing "Daddy won't you please come home" and knowing some of the songs from the last has got me more excited!

I'm a huge Fred Astaire, along with a lot of swing and big band, nut and wished there was more of him, but they picked a good song if you could only have have.

I find it weird, the "deluxe edition" doesn't contain all the music that the CE has. In the unboxing video she said there were 26 songs on the Bioshock 2 soundtrack, now I'd assumed that was what the "deluxe edition" would consist of but it's not. If you even count on the disk back in the video there are clearly at least 24 soungs but the deluxe edition of the soundtrack only has 18.

Deleting comments on how Bioshock 2 is unwarranted and unwanted? Isn't that the exact same thing you guys were talking about on the podcast? Bunch of hypocrites.

@solarshadows - look up La Mer by Django Reinhardt - that'll give you your fix.

An issue I have with this is that instead of them not only releasing the original songs they put into this soundtrack, but they should of released another soundtrack, but only with their own produced, conducted songs from the conductor who helped produced the original video game songs.

I've spend some time Googling on where I can purchase their own songs in the game itself, and I couldn't find anything. It upsets me.
Like for example, having a released copy of Silent Hill 3 soundtrack.
