This is a textbook definition of a videogame for kids, cartoon depictions of worm-on-worm violence, it doesn't get much more innocent than this. I'd bet a child that could hold a controller would find this insanely entertaining.
It's slapstick-y and kid-friendly enough, but innocent it is not. It implies a world-ending conflict, depicts nuclear weapons and fallout with sirens and Geiger counters in the soundtrack, politically themed weapons like French burning sheep and it can be kinda creepy especially with the promotional material
For whatever reason, my brain decided to bring this theme into my head out of the blue about a decade since I last played this game. The only problem was I COULDN'T FIGURE OUT WHAT THE FUCKING SONG WAS. It's been driving me mad and about two weeks later I've finally found it! Fuck you brain!
In the early 2000's I slipped $2 to a guy in college for a ripped CD of Worms Armageddon. I got hooked on it then and it still stands the test of time in my mind, even have the game on Steam. The epic music just brings those memories back man!
0:24 - 0:45 is easily still my favorite part of this theme; I don't think I'll ever forget it. This song sure does bring my smile a gleam; The chills it sends down my spine are quite legit.
“Many moons have passed since the Worms went to war. Onwards and upwards, bigger weapons than before. Boggy B took cover, he shivered on patrol. The arms race crazy, simply way out of control.” “Then his friend threw it, the latest device. Boggy B went and got it against all advice. Boggy B - What the? *BOOM* “His tail was split and his energy lost. How many more will this dreaded war cost?” “Then came the nuke and disease tumbling down. If the bug didn’t get you, you probably drowned. But the Worms battled on, through hunger and pain. Living to fight, just to victor again.” “And now it’s the curtain call, the final onslaught. No better bullet could you possibly have bought. But spare a thought for Boggy and with it his friend, so fight with their honour and fight until the end.”
Oh man... this song... this was my childhood theme-song... I never got tired of hearing it. I'd put Worms Armageddon in just to listen to the load screen... This is bar none the BEST video uploaded to youtube!
Holy shit I remember playing this when I was like in 4th grade, everytime after school i went into my computer and play worms armageddon. Today I am 21 and sometimes play worms reloaded with a friend. good times man, good times, this song brings back alot of memories.
+pwnsaurus Sorry for the late reply :P but a possible reason is that Reloaded comes before Armageddon in terms of story (at least as per the worm songs), so the worms haven't quite yet developed some of the weapons. (I know it's likely an excuse, just having a bit of fun here)
Though it might actually lay something in what you say, seeing how in Armageddon, all the stages are littered in debris and deformed landmass. In Reloaded the stages are mostly untouched, and the worms in the war are more strategic/Coordinated as seen in the different classes they bring to the frontlines.
that last line there was probly the most inspiring thing ive ever heard, just the way it hits you there and rolls... bam! an d then its strike up the theme, its just perfect
1999 seems to be an awesome year for games: Age of Empires 2, Unreal Tournament, Quake, Worms Armageddon, System Shock 2, Jagged Alliance 2, GTA 2, ...

damn.. This part "So fight with their honor, and fight until the end" Gives me always goosebumps and makes me cry... Sign.. I want to go back to 2004-5 when i played this game nolife on me ps1.. Great times.
one of the games that actually remained awesome and addictive, I've realized how good this game is when after 10 years I wanted to play it and the result was I spent almost a week playing only this game, it just remained awesome, and played in multilayer with 3 other persons is just endless, also best of the series - new ones are crap - to slow and there's nothing new
omg.. for 14 years this song sometimes came in my mind... only the melody. now i came up with the fucking game where it was.. lol great memories..! i got none
I have loved this game since I was like 6 or 5! One day a few years ago, one of my siblings accidently scratched it badly. I'm now waiting for it again from eBay.
Ahh, back when worms was still awesome. I remember playing Worms 2 day in and day out and then this beast came out and my friends and I played the crap out of it. I only wished it had the customization options that Worms 2 had.
This is why I love the Team Fortress 2 Prophunt map Switcheroo. The first music button (Hit the B in Blu in the back of the Blu spawn) plays this song. I've literally fought someone over that music button, he wanted a different theme, and I chose this one, eventually he switched teams so he could play his, which I didn't mind. I demand this theme when I hunt though. Stubborn as a mule about this.

we did. not only is it the coolest intro song to a game, but the game itself was so fun
Except they use fucking machine guns
Also don't forget that there's a blood option
It's slapstick-y and kid-friendly enough, but innocent it is not. It implies a world-ending conflict, depicts nuclear weapons and fallout with sirens and Geiger counters in the soundtrack, politically themed weapons like French burning sheep and it can be kinda creepy especially with the promotional material
I came here to spare a thought for Boggy, and his friend. ;-)
Then fight with their honor, and fight until the end.
20 years on im still listening
*Salutes, eyes filled with tears*
Go, you magnificent worms!

severalgecko you miss Old times perhaps?
I guess you had an earWORM:D
Same man!!
Team 17 were fools for not including this in the Android version of Worms. There simply couldn't be a better theme melody for a game!

It's 2018 and this music is still brilliant. Best Worms song. Period.
This should be in a Top 5 best videogames soundtracks and the game too.
Oh man... this song... this was my childhood theme-song... I never got tired of hearing it. I'd put Worms Armageddon in just to listen to the load screen... This is bar none the BEST video uploaded to youtube!
Hilarious game. Hilarious song. True feelings.
and fuck ponies.
Boggy B will always be missed! *Salutes and tears drop*
I don't even have the words to express what I'm feeling right now.
I miss this game so much..
Very good techno.
Best intro music to any game ever made so far (in my opinion)
most epic theme song ever
Credit where its due: Bjorn Lynne.
0:46
Best part *0:47** - 1.17* - end of story !
We salute you boggy b!!!!! *with tear in eye*
I love this catchy 90s Rave sound.
you got it
GO BOGGY B!
He is dead...
@@ggiillii2813So why's he in Blast?
Hallelujah! BOOM!!
What a great game!
right in the feels
memories....
Oh the good old worms memories. Haven't played it for years.
Awesome time playing this game. :)
This game is 20 years old now...
Holy shit I remember playing this when I was like in 4th grade, everytime after school i went into my computer and play worms armageddon. Today I am 21 and sometimes play worms reloaded with a friend. good times man, good times, this song brings back alot of memories.
you have 29 now, how do you feel?
It would have been nice if the video uploader had given a mention to the composer of this music...
You're in the clear... even if i'm 9 years late.
🔥
The music in the opening graphic for me is ridiculously nostalgic! Best parts are 0:30-1:14 & 3:18-3:48 :-)
Ah, the memories. Worms is probably my favourite video game franchise, it's just awesome.
I salute thee, Boogy B!
1:15 This Worm Is Screaming In Pain
me in summer be like :
Why does Worm Reloaded not even have close to the awesome variety and crazyness of the weapons from this game? T_T
+pwnsaurus Sorry for the late reply :P but a possible reason is that Reloaded comes before Armageddon in terms of story (at least as per the worm songs), so the worms haven't quite yet developed some of the weapons. (I know it's likely an excuse, just having a bit of fun here)

that last line there was probly the most inspiring thing ive ever heard, just the way it hits you there and rolls... bam!
an d then its strike up the theme, its just perfect
Greetings from Worms W.M.D!
hardcore version of Armageddon and the 5th generation
Salute The Mac Baron
Wow, this song is just so beautiful!
I am listening to it everytime!
Love from your friend,

I know this is legacy but
*BOGGY B WILL SHOW ON WORMS WORLD PARTY IN DEATHMATCH MODE WHEN YOU IN ROCKIE RANK*
2019 Is The 20th Anniversary Of The Game Worms Armageddon
1999 seems to be an awesome year for games: Age of Empires 2, Unreal Tournament, Quake, Worms Armageddon, System Shock 2, Jagged Alliance 2, GTA 2, ...
Many moons have passed since the worms went to war.
Onwards and upwards, bigger weapons than before.
Boggy B took cover, he shivered on patrol.
The arms race crazy, simply way out of control.
Then his friend threw it, the latest device.
Boggy B went and got it, against all advice - "What the...?"
His tail was split, and his energy lost.
How many more will this dreaded war cost?
Then came the nuke, and the disease tumbling down.
If the bug didn't get to you, you'd probably drown.
But the worms battled on, through hunger and pain.
Living to fight, just to victor again.
And now it's the curtain call, the final onslaught,
no better bullet could you possibly have bought.
But spare a thought for Boggy and with it his friend.
So fight with their honour, and fight until the end.
Yes!!! The glory days of happy techno/trance *AND* Worms Armageddon: best Worms ever made! Memories don't get better :D
Truly one of the greatest computer games to this very day. Brought so many memories back.. nostalgia!!
Always loved when the theme cut out to those wee mini-movies involving the worms!
this song rocks!
not gunna lie, 20 year old student, this disk has been in my PC all year, gamings concord moment. its perfect.
Catchiest VG game I've heard in a long while!
I think Worms was your best one. Such a breath taking, fun and dynamic piece of music. XD
Oh loved memories. Cry cry cry cry
Legendary game...
How many times did you people just sit there in the menu, listening to this instead of starting a game?
Be honest
For me, it was like 2/3 times
My childhood :') I remembering that from 2010 xDDD
Right? I remember fondly sitting and listening to the theme music without even playing the game... :)
@@Simonat313 O yeah :D that were the best times :)
@@Simonat313 Possible, I will upload a cover of this theme song :) Casio CTK-731
I get all emotional after the dialogue lol.
This isn't the same without the heart beating.
Guys, for those who don't know, Worms Armageddon is on Steam!
store.steampowered.com/app/217200/
damn.. This part
"So fight with their honor, and fight until the end"
Gives me always goosebumps and makes me cry... Sign.. I want to go back to 2004-5 when i played this game nolife on me ps1.. Great times.
I can't stand for this song, too many memories, i played recently with my friend and it was fun!
one of the games that actually remained awesome and addictive, I've realized how good this game is when after 10 years I wanted to play it and the result was I spent almost a week playing only this game, it just remained awesome, and played in multilayer with 3 other persons is just endless, also best of the series - new ones are crap - to slow and there's nothing new
I heard this melody in another video it was so... familiar I just didnt know why. Now I finally found what I was searching for. Thank you.
What is awesome is there are still playing this game! I'm one of them! And the community is huge!
I remember waiting for this little song to come on and it seemed like forever till it did back in the day haha!
This was the first game i used on my backwrds compatibilty on my PS3. Ive played it more than some of my PS3 games XD
THE BEST WORMS GAME OUT OF ALL OF THE WORMS GAMES I HAD HOURS OF FUN ON THIS.
This isn't only the best worms game.
This is THE best game, period.
Worms will go down as one of the greatest game series of all time.
This possibly has to be one of the best games I have ever played, I miss this soooo much
omg.. for 14 years this song sometimes came in my mind... only the melody. now i came up with the fucking game where it was.. lol great memories..! i got none
The best worms edition
I still have this version of worms, and i love the rubbish about boggy pete it kept playing whilst i was eating my dinner.
Still play this every day for hours.
KAMAKAZEEEEEEE How could anyone not love worms. Great game ever, and my favourite version of the worms theme. WHAT THE???
Заслушаться можно. Такая ностальгия!
Это точно...
@marstazzz He was the 1st player of the default worms team. A hero.
This song rules, and so do this game and World Party. Thanks so much for providing the d/l link!!!
A masterpiece. Still as good as ever!!
Du Du DU DU DUUU DU DU DU DUDU DU DU. Worms is hte greatest gane of all time. So simple yet so brilliant and fun.
Man this game was such a power trip!!! I was hooked after the theme intro :P
i still remember not wanting to start a game just so i could hear some more of this song.
that worms theme is the best ever i remember when i was like 6-7 years and played it :) (still play the worms games theyre awesome) ^^
worms = classic
By far my favourite Wormsong.
I have loved this game since I was like 6 or 5! One day a few years ago, one of my siblings accidently scratched it badly.
I'm now waiting for it again from eBay.
Man I used to love playing this game! One of the best games I've ever played!
I've been looking for this for ages. One of my favourite videogame themes.
I used to love this song so much...
Wow, this is so awesome! Like a techno version of the World Party theme! I love it! 5/5 for sure :D
It's been over a decade since I first heard this, but it's still awesome!
Nostalgia overdose
As soon as this theme kicked in the first time you already knew this was going to be a fun game.
Ahh, back when worms was still awesome. I remember playing Worms 2 day in and day out and then this beast came out and my friends and I played the crap out of it. I only wished it had the customization options that Worms 2 had.
This is why I love the Team Fortress 2 Prophunt map Switcheroo. The first music button (Hit the B in Blu in the back of the Blu spawn) plays this song.

I demand this theme when I hunt though. Stubborn as a mule about this.
i miss playing this game lol...and the song is so catchy
me too. A workaround is a VM with windows XP. But don't install guest additions, it caused mouse problems for me.
Ahhh good old PS1 games... Nostalgia for the win!
Man, I STILL love this song...
This brings back memories.
the feels...
Oh! This is one of those main childhood games, man!!
Man this brings back memories.
