As mentioned in the other thread...no gunbarrel music? Or do you guys think it'll be part of track 1.

Part of track 1 most likely.

The most intriguing one for me is 'Mother'. Though those of us who have been wading knee-deep in spoilers probably have a good idea what that's about...

I've seen tibits of what seems to be Bond and presumably Silva falling under ice and fighting so I think 28. Deep Water is for that.

I hope Mother is just what M means to Bond not that she is anybody's mother(ie Silva). If that's the case I just got my first fear that Skyfall may have a little bit of a cheesy flavor. Hope I'm wrong!

Yes, I'm pretty hopeful "Mother" refers to M's maternal working relationship to Bond, rather than anything biological. With Silva's line "Mommy was very bad", that would probably tie up.

I'll let QOS4EVER field that one (from the Newman thread):



Track listing:
http://filmmusicrepo...dtrack-details/

Great stuff. I feel like I know quite a bit about the film's plot, but some of those track names are still a mystery to me - Granborough Road? Jellyfish? Very interesting.

Jellyfish should be reffering to that shanghai fight scene with patrice ,You can see those neon lights in the background with the image of a jellyfish I believe

For those who wonder about the Gunbarrel track, on some soundtracks the gunbarrel track is not labeled as such. For example the gunbarrel track on OHMSS is under the title "This Never Happened To The Other Fella" and on LTK "James & Felix On The Way To The Church".

I'd be thoroughly surprised if, amongst 30 tracks and 77 minutes of music, they selectively omitted the gunbarrel score.

Too bad they're out of order. "Tennyson" must refer to the poem quoted by M. "Mother" is interesting. I'm also curious about "Breadcrumbs".

And lets not forget the soundtrack for TWINE doesn't even include the gunbarrel music.

Is this going to be another music score CD with no theme tune, I wonder? As in Casino Royale. Little snatches of the Chris Cornell theme were heard throughout, but no actual theme tune, which I thought was a tad disappointing, and it would be just as much this time around.

I wonder if they do it because [Sony] would rather make more money and have people spend extra to get the theme on a single. Rather than getting both the theme and the score in one place.

It's probably because they'd rather get as much of Newman's score onto than have any space taken up by the theme. 80 minutes is the maximum capacity for a CD, and at 77 minutes this one's just under it.

Some very interesting title tracks there - very obscure, but great to avoid obvious references to the film's events.

Can't wait to hear them.

Probably both, I think. Never mind. At least I got the theme downloaded on Friday last. Doesn't often happen in the stately, Quantum financed Haines estate, but I've actually downloaded a number 1 hit record. Must be decades since I last bought a number 1.

How do you know that tracks are out of order? This could be the "creative" storytelling that was mentioned before...

If the titles refer to the scenes the quotes are from, then they're out of order. It's a "listening experience" album, not complete and chronological (which would be a two CD release). That said, they could release bonus tracks on iTunes like they did with CASINO ROYALE.

I'm liking the sound of track 13: Komodo Dragon. It's about time we had one of these in a Bond film (and I wonder if it's the genuine article).

Well, we know a Komodo Dragon was used for the film, but they could have used it just to make a cgi version - let´s hope not though.

Assuming it chomps on the chap Bond's fighting, unless there's some puppetry involved, it'll have to be at least partially done with CGI.

Very true. And the poisonous snap would take it´s time to kill, so...same thing. CGI composite? I sure hope it doesn´t end up like a giant komodo from the SciFi channel´s Komodo vs. Anaconda or something like that. Ideous productions, those.

If the titles refer to the scenes the quotes are from, then they're out of order. It's a "listening experience" album, not complete and chronological (which would be a two CD release). That said, they could release bonus tracks on iTunes like they did with CASINO ROYALE.

How do you know for sure that it isn't flashbacks in the story? The last six Bond albums had tracks in chronological order. It seems a little bit strange to change that now.
