BioShock Soundtrack: Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky -- Waltz of The Flowers

[@ariaa.9428]

The fact that during this fight enemies are considerably weaker to melee attacks is just Cohen asking you to put your fancy weapons away and start to dance.

[@atlasguytinyproductions55]

Your right I noticed. That’s so cool.

[@darqdragon6269]

I dance with my Shotgun and Sonic Boom Plasmid, but Wrench is aight too

[@johnlime1469]

I came here right after playing this part. It was so satisfying.

[@ibish9513]

I had never noticed it, but now that you say it, while I was hitting enemies with my melee as I had instinctively pulled out my wrench and "started dancing", I guess it was considerably easier.

I don't know about anyone else but I always tried and time my shotgun blasts to the music during this scene.

I heard early playtesters did that too, which the game devs loved.

[@Crazyguy_123MC]

I did that with my machine gun and wrench.

[@harvey_birdman4455]

for people that dont listen to classical music , tue reason Sander likes it its because not only classical music is music bit also can always tell a story even in chaos can tell the story the crescendos as you fight your way through cohen goons in such a lovely play of destruction , Cohen LOVES THAT

[@ShutterSnapped]

Bioshock always has great music to add to their settings. You kill the splicers to Waltz of the Flowers, you find a man being tortured by ravens to Bach's Air on G string, and fight a screaming ghost who sings Lacrimosa in Infinite.

[@JdotSweapA]

The Wild Bunny by Sander Cohen: I want to take the ears off, but I can't. I hop, and when I hop, I never get off the ground. It's my curse, my eternal curse! I want to take the ears off but I can't! It's my curse! It's my fucking curse! I want to take the ears off! Please! Take them off! Please!

Bioshock has to be one of the greatest MASTERPIECES! I just loved the mystery, the dark utopian city of Rapture, and all the inhabitants! There's just so much history to be uncovered from the rubble. This is what drawn me to this game and if it weren't for my brother renting this from Blockbuster I would've never played this!!! "Would you kindly" words that will be engraved in my mind for the rest of my life on this earth! Now, Would you kindly go to Ryan's office and kill the son of a bitch!

Could you imagine audiences flocking to theatres in the early days of Rapture to watch the Nutcracker ballet? I totally dig the whole aesthetic of that era in general but to think about it when it's at the bottom of the sea is wicked cool, I only wish I could have seen Rapture in its prime.

Waltz of The Flowers has a big sentimental meaning for me since I was a kid for different reasons, when I first heard it on Bioshock during the Sander Cohen mission I almost started to cry, the game was probably the best I experienced until that point, and then it used this music, simply a masterpiece.
