We all know the missions of Cyberpunk 2077 are named after various songs. What isn’t discussed enough or even talked about is how exactly these songs relate to what’s occurring in the exact mission whether that’s a surface based connection or a much deeper one surrounding the devs and songwriters. I aim to highlight that connection.

So stoked for the PL and Act 3 videos, but the side missions are equally as important, feel like they are the core of the game and add a lot to the main story rather than just playing the main quests so the music is just as important.
Preem video! Quick note, Kerry didn’t sign with Arasaka, but with MSN Records. He just said that sarcastically to Johnny.
yo been waiting for this one
i love music and cyberpunk so its been great to have a creator who's willing to do deep dives on how they interact
The song “I fought the law” was originally sung by “The Crickets” but the cover by “The Clash” fits cyberpunk2077 way better.
Night City thanks you, you gettin' a drink for this one!!!
just so you know, the phantom liberty credits song is also called phantom liberty
Love these vids.
Thanks for making these videos, so great to see someone break down all of these songs and why CDPR hand selected each one to be the name for each mission specifically!
Great video, as always 👍
Peak Cyberpunk content.
Been really getting into the cyberpunk world recently. It’s a game that I recently finished, only to start a brand new playthrough except with a completely different playstyle. The story and the philosophical aspects of the story. I just love all the characters and just sticking it to the corpo’s!
Awesome vid with some great suggestions. The Gift is a really lowkeye quest, but it does introduce us to the owner of that quickhack store, who is also the person who Mr Hands will hire to infiltrate MaxTac's subnet to find their transport routes, which is a little interesting that this seemingly pointless salesman is as good a runner as Nix. But as far as i know, those are the only 2 times you talk to her.
I Really Want to Stay at Your House and Phantom Liberty (the song) are both good for largely the same reason.
IRWTSAYH could be read as being about Johnny and Alt, but also about Johnny and V's relationship (not romantic, but still), it was in the game two years before Edgerunners came out. During the last mission, you're going to lose one of them. You either wake up as V or as Johnny and you're alone. V and Johnny are a physical manifestation of a toxic relationship, Johnny's existence is literally eating V alive, but you're still fighting to make it work, you're dragging your feet to find other solutions, but you're prolonging the enviable because you don't want to be alone.
PL is about both V and Song thinking they were doing something worthwhile, only to end up in shitty situations and find themselves confined and unrecognizable, which is a point made by how Song appears via the Relic vs how she actually looks. She wants to be her old self, and that's who she sees in her mind. V is told over and over throughout the game that the chip will change her/him, and if you lean into it, V can be more and more like Johnny with the boundary that separates them blurring into nothing. The last line "who are you now?" sums up not only the DLC but the game as a whole.
Fellow gearhead here. Im currently in the process of putting an engine in my G35. Im hoping to make it into a drift car once Im finished. That Ken Block tribute took me by suprise as well.
