LET ME TELL YOU A STORY is a 2013 album by the band Random Encounter consisting of 18 songs, contemporary rock arrangements of the music from various video game soundtracks. This represents a fan-made mix between video game covers and original songs inspired by video games. The album boasts many collaborations with artists within the Video Game Music scene, beyond it, and even recordings made with the band's fans.

The album is Random Encounter's second. Promotion for the album was primarily based out of Random Encounter's website, Facebook, Kickstarter,[1] and was supplemented by various tour stops around the United States during their Winter east coast mini tour, as well as regular performances in their home city Orlando, Florida, and an album release show.
