Baba Yetu must live on.

[Thormodr]

I'd prefer that they had new music composed. I'm sure Firaxis will get it right.

Babu Yetu can be used in the game somewhere and that would be cool. Just not as the main theme.

I am curious if they are going to do voices for the tech advances again. I'd love to hear Leonard Nemoy do it but I am sure that's very unlikely as they seem to have come to a parting of the ways.

I am fine as long as Baba Yetu in the game somewere.

 

[Tamed]

So it seems like the general consensus is that we want Baba Yetu back but not as the title screen. More people seem to want it as credits or a diplo theme than a main theme, which is great. The song itself seems loved enough to merit the idea of living on.

 

[Arakhor]

You need it as one of the African themes, as it's the Lord's Prayer in Swahili

 

[supersoulty]

I agree. If they could figure out a way to "sneak" it in, then that would be epic... the diplomacy screen for an African civ, perhaps...?

 

[Gedemo]

Yes. Civ IV opening theme was great. W'll surely have a new remixed version.

 

[cephalo]

Nothing wrong with Baba Yetu but.... I've probably listened to that song more than any other since Civ4 was released... I'm ready for something new.

 

[GreatProfit]

Yes. Civ IV opening theme was great. W'll surely have a new remixed version.

I vote for Baba Yetu feat. 50 Cent [TEPR Remix].

Realistically though BY would probably get buried in the credits somewhere. That Lebanese Arabic love song about a woman - well I don't know about that.

 

[apenpaap]

Al Nadda?

 

[mouthpuncher]

Agreed. I changed my opening screen to the classic Civ IV just so I can hear Baba Yetu when I start the game.
