Quoted from the TVtropes Wild Mass Guessing page for Mass Effect 3:
The music over the credits of ME3 will be 'Don't Fear the Reaper'. And if it isn't, it damn well should be.
- You win the internet.
- Would you settle for the final mission of ME2?
- I'd love to hear a Bear McCreary rendition of it. You know, for extra BSG geek cred.
- Will you marry me?
- Related theory: The song will be incorporated into the story in some way. Like say, it's a music option in Shepard's cabin, and crew members will comment on Shepard's retro tastes. Or for a more dramatic scenario, Shepard is in the middle of a major fight on Earth, trying to protect some survivors from Reaper forces. The survivors are severely depressed, having been on the run from the Reapers for weeks while watching friends and family die in front of them. The survivor leader (or maybe Conrad Verner, because it'd be cool and oddly fitting) tries to get their spirits up by starting a Crowd Song of "Don't Fear the Reaper," which serves as background music for the battle. As you progress through the fight and kick more and more asses, the music goes from awkward and forced to jubilant and hopeful.
- No, I think the crowd singing it would be a bit narmy
- Yeah probably. The drama idea doesn't really work, but the idea of having it as background music for a fight could hold water, just get rid of the crowd and replace it with a radio recording of the song or something.
- Coolest instance of ironic music EVAR
