Who likes this soundtrack, and what do you like most about
it?

I just bought it a few days ago, and it's cool... I love the
first 4 tracks, and the last two especially... but they're
all pretty cool... I imagine this would be good to put on
while making love, as it has a real dark and sexy feel to
it... now I just need to find a girl!! :)

I really think the vocal snippets mixed in are nice too...
really adds to the music imo...

fine, I'll just talk to myself here...

Memories of Green is pretty fabulous as well... that piano
part is beautiful!

This CD is SO FSOL. The atmosphere, the samples, everything.
The only thing I don't like is the Love Theme, with that
horrible saxophone. So cheesy. Otherwise, it's a fucking
great album.
Rachel's Song was the reason I bought it (as FSOL sampled it
in My Kingdom, my favourite song), but the original is
really, really beautiful on its own. Really great album.

brilliant.

top tip for the london kiddies - new record store Phonica
had a good quality bootleg of the proper OST on vinyl. or
at least they did a couple of weeks ago. £12 and great
quality.

you'll find Phonica on Poland Street, soho.

I don't really mind the love theme... I just hate that One
More Kiss, Dear track... really doesn't fit the album well,
and ruins the flow...

Yeah, that's true. It's in the film, but isn't Vangelis and
doesn't fit at all. I don't even mind the song, but it's
badly placed.

yeah, I know it's in the movie, and so he probably felt
abliged to include it... but he added some new music, so he
could've left that off... shrug, I've usually been skipping
it anyways...

back when i was about 7 i had the original soundtrack on
cassette... it was slightly differant... i have it on cd
now, but its differant than the old cassette version.. some
differances i recall...

-the atmosphere at the end of track 1 was differant... it
was the sound of being out at sea and there was one of those
bouy's with a tinkling bell...

-harrison ford sang the vocals on "one more kiss dear"

i prefer the old cassette version, but nonetheless, my
favorite soundtrack of all time.
