Metric in Test Drive Unlimited is one of my favorite of all time - I still play it all the time. I also got this song from Fifa 2005: 

Emma Warren - She wants you back

 

Fun Fact Fifa also had a Metric song that was favorited by a lot of people

I also discovered Iron Maiden through one of the Tony Hawk games.

That's the Iron Maiden you were referring to?

Yes, but the song I discovered playing Tony Hawk games in '02 or '03 was The Number of the Beast, from the 1982 album of the same name.  The Writing on the Wall is a new single released by Maiden, but yes it is the same band.

Alright - I'll try and look up the one you were talking about in the name of The Number of the Beast and hopefully it's going to be something that I would love.

I think that Piece of Mind or Powerslave are the better albums, but Number of the Beast won't let you down.

Definitely - Powerslave comes out on top for. The band and bits are certainly entertaining to listen to.

I think Powerslave may be the greatest album in metal history.  The Rime of the Ancient Mariner is too long of a song, but other than that Powerslave rules.

I have many such songs which I found after playing the game. The recently was from PUBG, it was their official song. Black pink - Fire

Yeah - it's among the metal song genre that got me to fall in love with it. I don't really enjoyed the Rime like I did Powerslave.

Those are quite pretty singers. Although I don't understand their language in it - I think it's Korea or something mixed with English.

I would have been fine with Rime of the Ancient Mariner if it didn't have that ship oar creaking mid section.  It would have been a reasonable length and very compelling song without that.

Exactly - it's the only part in Rime of the Ancient Mariner that took it out of proportion in terms of being a perfect song.

You should also check out Maiden's 1986 album Somewhere in Time.  All of its songs are good.

My Playlists is definitely getting stuffed this weekend because I'm definitely going to be getting all these songs.

Another band I'd recommend is 220 V, a metal band from '80's Sweden.
