    What's the name of the song that is playing in the bar in PoK, after you use the Drunkard's Stein?

    It's driving me nuts!

    It's been driving me nuts for years. It sounds familiar, but I can't ever place my finger on it.

    all the mp3s are in your EQ folder, if you were really being driven nuts you could dive on in to sort it

    Everything has to be muted, sounds and music are terrible. Unpopular opinion?

    I had to listen to both several times, but I think you are right! The PoK version is heavily distorted, but I think you're right! Thanks a ton!

    I would love to find the specific recording/performance that was used in EQ, if anybody can track it down.

    EDIT: I found this rendition, no lyrics, but the toon definitely matches! For my non-musical ears, this one sounded more like the PoK version than the rat-pack version.



    Thanks again, Febb!

    Good grief! I was convinced I recognised the tune but could never put a name to it...

    I just listened to a dozen versions on archive.org, but I couldn't find the one used in PoK.

    I did come across this nice solo guitar performance of the song:

    Amusingly, the chord progression is also used for Tiptoe Through the Tulips :p

    PoP actually had pretty good music, I especially liked Nightmare and Torment.
