Sierra Online: Original Vocal Songs (1992-1996) - NintendoComplete
42Here's a collection of songs written specifically for PC games released by Sierra On-line between 1992 and 1996. They're one of my all-time favorite game companies, and touches like these always went a long way to show how much they put into their games. The videos running behind the music were taken from the original games (so much better with the visuals, I think!).
I used the highest-quality recordings that I know of for each of the songs. Not all of them are of CD-quality.
Quick warning: The last three songs show video footage with some pretty explicit violence. If you're sensitive to gory horror movie special effects, avoid those.
I hope you enjoy these - they're all quite well done, though there's no denying that many of them are very-much a product of their time (read: stuck permanently in the 90s).
