Songs in Simlish

To give more realism and promote celebrities, the producers added Simlish songs (most of which are actual songs). They are present throughout The Sims series. Here are the following games and the songs.

The Sims
In The Sims: Vacation (The Sims: On Holiday in some regions), Sims seated around a campfire may sing Simlish versions of "She'll be coming 'round the mountain", "On top of Old Smokey", and "Michael Row the Boat Ashore".

The music for The Sims: Unleashed was composed by Zydeco Flames. While many of the songs are original compositions made for the expansion, one of the songs is a Simlish version of one of the group's existing songs.



The Sims: Superstar features a number of different songs that can be sung by Sims in the Fame career. The "Pop" song featured in the game is "Glabe Glarn", a noticeably Auto-Tuned pop song. There are two Sims in The Sims 2 that are named after the song: Glabe Curious and Glarn Curious.

The Urbz
The music heard in The Urbz: Sims in the City (console), featured original as well as Simlish covers by the The Black Eyed Peas, who were celebrity NPCs. The Urbz console soundtrack was released digitally on LastFM as an album for download in March 2007. However, due to licensing issues the music done by BEP was not present.

This is a list of Urbz songs featured on the official soundtrack, in order as the are officially listed.

This is a list of Urbz songs not featured on the official soundtrack, the station "BEP-d Beat" featured a number of songs by BEP. Do note that this listing is incomplete as some songs lack titles.

The Sims 2
The Sims 2 soundtrack music was set up by Maxis' audio director Robi Kauker. He is in charge of making all the radio stations, such as rap, salsa, heavy metal, and pop. The music took about a year to record and was restricted from being repetitive. Kauker says, "Diehard Sim fans spend virtual lifetimes playing, so the music can't be repetitive."

The theme music and music from the Create-A-Sim portion of the game was created by Mark Mothersbaugh, a founding member of Devo, whom Maxis enlisted. However, Kauker took a variety of styles from the radio for the music within the game. Maxis asked several developers to help develop the music like the Humble Brothers.

Music from The Sims 2 and The Sims 2: University was remixed by real DJs in The Sims 2: Nightlife.
