Why Did Rockstar Fill GTA VI’s Soundtrack With 10,000 Randy Newman Songs?
Picture this—you’re careening through the pixelated streets of Grand Theft Auto VI, clutching a bag of cash, dodging virtual cops, and what’s blasting through the speakers? Not Snoop, not Blondie, but a dizzying 10,000 Randy Newman tracks. I mean, is this genius or chaos encrypted in C#? Call me old-fashioned, but the idea of orchestrating high-speed getaways to “Short People” or negotiating criminal empires while Newman’s gravelly musings narrate my every wrong move—is absolutely bonkers… and I can’t decide if I’m horrified or giddy. Rockstar’s latest move feels like someone swapped the nitrous tank for a whoopee cushion and said, “Hit the gas.” But hey, maybe a world jam-packed with Randy Newman is the medicine this cynical, jaded gamer didn’t know he needed. Could this be the soundtrack pivot none of us asked for—yet somehow, can’t stop thinking about? If you’re already hearing “You’ve Got a Friend in Me” as you ready your next virtual heist, well, you’re not alone . LEARN MORE
EDINBURGH, SCOTLAND—Fanning hype for its upcoming open-world sandbox game by teasing a copious collection of tracks from the legendary singer-songwriter and film composer, Rockstar Games announced in a press release Tuesday that the Grand Theft Auto VI soundtrack would contain 10,000 songs by Randy Newman. “The music is an essential part of any Grand Theft Auto game, and fans are going to love robbing banks and dodging cop cars while blasting classic pop songs like ‘Short People’ and ‘Political Science,’” said lead developer Caleb Grothoff, claiming that every radio station in the game would be devoted to a different era of Newman’s darkly ironic and heartfelt discography. “Of course, with so much of the licensing budget going to the purchase of his entire catalog, we couldn’t afford any other music for the game’s missions, but we doubt players will care. If gamers aren’t a fan of his music, they don’t need to worry—we had Mr. Newman record hours of phone calls and podcasts, too. For those who want to hear some original audio of Randy Newman’s voice, they’ll be happy to learn we got him to record dialogue for more than 90% of the NPCs in the game.” Grothoff added that his team was also working on a DLC that would replace all the gunshots and car noises with various Newman grunts.
