Sierra was a company known for making adventure games for computers in the 1980’s and 1990’s (some of their most popular series were King’s Quest, Space Quest, and Leisure Suit Larry). When CD-ROM computer games exploded in popularity, they decided to feature vocal songs in many of their games. Ranging from comedic to heartfelt, these musical numbers underlined the interactive movie craze at the time. Perhaps they were hoping for a hit single?
So, adjust the feather in your cap and prepare to warble off key. It’s time to listen to some classic vocal tracks from the Sierra computer games.
