Let's Go Sunning

"Let's Go Sunning" is a song in Fallout 3 that plays on Galaxy News Radio.

Background
Let's Go Sunning was composed by Jack Shaindlin for the 1954 nudist film Garden of Eden, a 70-minute film about a widow and her daughter finding shelter at a nudist colony. Jack Shaindlin's orchestrator at the time, Bob McBride, arranged the song.

An unnamed girl was approached by the film's producer, Walter Bibo, to provide the vocals for the song. Jack Shaindlin's widow recounted that Jack had a difficult time "trying to get [the girl] to sing it right". His widow also expressed how the girl "hoped to make it big in the music business", but that "she was so lost". Her identity remains unknown.

The song was later released in digitally in 1998 on the CD CINE 04 - Dance Orchestra, compiling many of Jack Shaindlin's other works. The version released on the CD and used in Fallout 3 is shorter in length than the version featured in the film.

Lyrics
[Verse 1] Let’s go sunning It’s so good for you Let’s go sunning Beneath the sky of blue Greet the sun every morn Feel as free and happy as the day you were born

[Chorus] Let’s go native Sun your cares away Be creative Learn to live and play Pretty flowers need the sun This applies to everyone

Life’s worth living When nature’s giving Happiness to everyone So let’s go sunning

[Chorus] Let’s go native Sun your cares away Be creative Learn to live and play Pretty flowers need the sun This applies to everyone

Life’s worth living When nature’s giving Happiness to everyone So let’s go sunning
