Syriana Suite

[ICunnilingusI]

If you would really like to witness anti-islam and anti-arab and anti-jewish feelings, hatred etc..you are advised to visit the Netherlands...

A big Nazi camp is this country

[shanks008]

Does anyone know the opening song when they show Teheran. That was deadly. That truly summed up American presence in the heart of Tehran.

[cnotenesmith]

I heard another version of this song on Pandora. Does anyone know where I can find that version? It had a heavier, busier bassline...I've been trying to look for it.

[violist1000]

very beutiful song

[laidbackguy777]

This music sums up my life.

[violist1000]

@laidbackguy777 same here.. this song represents my struggles ( which ive had alot of), trials, calm to me. this would be the theme song for my autobio movie.

[gregbodprod]

There's an excellent live version by Stars Of The Lid easly found on Youtube

[dsdan83]

wasim and farooq were the heroes of this movie. they left a lasting impression on me though bob barnes and bennet holiday are memorable characters too.

[whateverman181]

@timmer7000 Umm..ignorance is prevalent in the entire world. Sorry I was just pointing out what goes on in America, but seriously the rest of the world is just as f'd up, violent, prejudice and ignorant too.

[manimgoindowndown]

I'm trying to find the athan from the opening of Syriana. What mosque, where was it, any information PLEASE

[mohammeddavis]

What's so special about where the mosque was? You wanna blow it up?

[TheVeroniqq]

I am with @vriend1 

[vriend1]

As long as the average American does not understand the message that is captured by this movie they will remain hated by most Middle Eastern people.

As long as tirans in the middle east are supported by western entities the West will remain hated.

The United States of America just made its largest weapons deal in history with one of the most fascist dictorial regime in the Middle East: Saudi Arabia

It has sold high advanced weapons to this kingdoms mafia like family.

Why?

OIL.

[whateverman181]

@vriend1 I'll agree that a lot of the problem is the prevailing belief that Western governments support monarchies and hierachy in the Middle East to the detriment of the people. But this is no way justifies terrorism. Period. The way the people in countries like Tunisia, Egypt, Syria etc. are handling the situation is the best way to handle it. As long as western governments stay out of other countries foreign affairs and stop trying to influence the balance of power things will work out.

[vriend1]

As long as the average American does not understand the message that is captured by this movie they will stay hated by most Middle Eastern people.

[pdc26839]

@vriend1 likewise if Muslims don't capture the message they will be hated by most Americans, you obviously did not get the message by making that statement. The message of the movie is multilayered, that the whole problem is very grey and not black and white.

[vriend1]

@pdc26839

the best scene in the movie is when the american politician says: " CORRUPTION? CORRUPTION IS WHY WE WIN"

[whateverman181]

@pdc26839 Unfortunately a lot of Americans hate Muslims because of a false belief that all Muslims are terrorists or somehow associated with it. This is not true. A terrorist can be of any race, religion, creed etc. There is a fundamental misunderstanding in the public about this. Also the anti-arab and anti-semitic sentiment that permeates through American culture needs to cease. Stereotying is bad and has never gotten anyone anywhere.

[dsdan83]

@whateverman181

ur stereotyping a little bit urself now by saying "a lot of americans". it would've been better if you added "but the overwhelming amount of americans are NOT anti-islam". there are a lot of anti-islam people in holland too, especially with the rise of the pvv political party(generally being called the anti-islam party), but nevertheless most dutch people are thankfully not anti-islam and don't hate muslims.

[yonythemoony]

I love that for a film like this, Desplat manages to keep his style

[feleczek123]

I can't stop to listen this song. It's awesome

[dsdan83]

man it's so sad those two pakistani guys blew themselves up. and then when that wasim dude's suicide video is being shown, really sad. those two kids were for me the real stars of this movie not george clooney or matt damon.

[whateverman181]

@dsdan83 What a lot of terrorists organizations do is prey on the poorest and weakest people to recruit. Usually young impressionable people who feel as if they are hopeless and have no way out. Same thing that the Nazis and skinheads have done. Or that gangs do. Same mentality same philosophy.

[WupeViasco]

i used this for my video!!

[MurinusFCK]

Good music. Really good. I like to listen to it early in the morning when the sun rises over the horizon. In the silence and with silence, which only occasionally cut through the car horn. In the luminous morning mist. Smoking a cigarette.… At this moment it seems that life is so calm, measured. And there is no constant rush, stress, anxieties, which will begin in a couple of hours. This helps to adjust youself, to concentrate against the chaos that awaits you ahead.. in the day light.

[Desmus55]

@MurinusFCK

That sounds like the perfect morning!

[cowboyfromdallas]

@MurinusFCK  You said it all!

[TheAngelscry2]

this music is so beautiful..... im a huge fan of Alexandre Desplat

[pan7afrodita]

It is almost incredible how the abstract power of music can generate such feeling of awe when vibrating within the very core of human emotion. it is indeed an unforgettable piece dedicated to memories, reflections, nostalgia and melancholy.

[rileyu]

@pan7afrodita yours should be the top comment

[Esskendir]

the best movie of a decade!

[CommanderV]

Read the book it was based off of, "See No Evil." It was written by Robert Baer, former field officer for the CIA. Clooney's character is supposed to be Baer. Personally, I thought the story was more anti-corruption than biased politically.

[PeteAmachree]

I loved the subtle, thoughtful music in this movie. Thanks for uploading.

[gufftrubble]

Yes, it is biased. And, like every other movie I've ever seen that "comments" on social or political issues, if you set the bias aside and enter into the story, it becomes just what it is.  A story.

[morroyce21]

one of the best films of the past decade.

[deepaknanhu]

its beautiful. i feel calm listening to this piece of music

[mysteriousnyc]

The film is quite good, it's not great, but is not bad by any stretch... It's pretty bias, that is the only negative i would attach to it. Its true though vary demanding film, it's subtle you must pay attention or you'll miss it's point its message and the story too...

[berrabro]

How is it biased? It doesn't lean towards any side in the political spectrum, it just simply shows the harsh reality of Mideast politics.

[mysteriousnyc]

It is biased in it's prospective of capitalism, and corporate corruption. It portrays grandiose capitalistic conspiracy based themes that are far more fictional and interesting, then truth-full or thought provoking. It is for one, a movie, and not a fact based mission statement. So i wouldn't take to much stock in it and it is biased in this political perspective, Because it is definitely a liberal theme. And it is more of a comment on american politics then Middle eastern.

[rawritssami]

i heard tis film was not that good, but usually movies are good when they have good music.

so how was it? lol i really want to know XD

[lalo6437]

It's demanding. So you have to follow it very closely. And watch it a lot of times.

[eribaroth]

It is demanding, I agree with Lalo. But it is a fantastic film.

[jagarcia1]

This movie was very good despite the critics

[Seibutsuchan]

Sweet, sad, bitter, happy. Memories are like that. Human lives are like that. Complicated yet simple. lifes not meaningless, it's just to short. That's why you have to live. so that even the shortest of lives can create an impact worth a long one. It doesn't matter how long or how short. It just matters that you lived it up when you could. The meaning of life is Life. How do you want people to remember you?

[Esskendir]

that's very wise. completely agree with you!

[Seibutsuchan]

^_^ thank you!

[polufhmos]

I like this music... thank you my friend.

[illsleepwhenimdead17]

Everything is connected....

[Dunyazd]

does anyone know where i can find the sheet music for this song? :) (for piano)

[Desmus55]

I'd imagine it's so simple youi'd be able to play it by ear.

[thekkl]

@Dunyazd To help start you off, both hands start at d#

[SilvaSprinter]

Very beautiful.

5/5

[monaliza38]

I want to download this movie...but I can't now...Syriana is a very good movie.

[s5lumr2]

thx for upload.. what a score

[raylopezjr]

Anybody upload this film?

[Tahsingeo]

I did upload the "Fields of Oil" but for some reason YouTube doesn't let me add the link here. I guess you have to click on my account. I only have 6 videos.

[Tahsingeo]

I also love and recommend everyone to listen to "Fields of Oil" by Alexandre Desplat. Unfortunately it is not on YouTube yet.

[lightman10eg]

do u have any other song from the soundrack?

[Tahsingeo]

I uploaded all the soundtracks for Syriana. Just search Syriana Soundtrack.

[GotMilkFilms]

Jarhead?

[GotMilkFilms]

Great score just bought the dvd do you think the film is any good?

[nikolaipaihehe]

this music is so beatiful

[HibeeNav]

go iran/persia!

[RadicalNoran]

i love this tune its so beautiful

[horatioalger17]

Read the book, "See No Evil" by former CIA operative Robert Baer.

[h2orrin213]

the simplicities of this song amaze me

[MadinahStudent]

One of the most realistic movies of all time.

[lightman10eg]

I just love the theme of the movie.

[WTFwhereisit]

Looking for the name and artist of the song played near the beginning of the movie Syriana where Bob is meeting Russ to sell him some rockets at a party in Terhan and there ia a apparent American rap tune playing in the background Thanks,WTFwhereisit

[cupedinarius]

contact those who made the film

[MatsiedeBruijn]

It's Let da monkey out by Redman

[robt158du]

Thanks for the information the tune sounded better in the movie Syriana, most favorite movie ever tells all about big oil and what greed is doing to the rest of the world, crashing all world economies needlessly for billionaire greed as the military follows business around the worldm disgusting!

[WTFwhereisit]

Does anyone who has seen the movie Syriana know the identity of the song being played in the background at the beginning of the movie where Bob is at a party in Terhan and is meeting Russ to talk about selling him some rockets and Russ says after prayers, it's a rap like tune with some mention of the FBI in it as girls are dressing up in their burkas to leave the party Thanks WTFwhereisit

[RZ8990]

It was "Let Da Monkey Out" by Redman

[robt158du]

Thanks for the information, computer skills are not what they used to be.

[VEKKIO]

Also a good one is Driving in Geneva and also Falcon.

Love that piano piece of Flacon, its just amazing.

[as76as]

I could listen for eterneties........

[picasso79]

great movie, great soundtrack

[jedisid]

I have the CD and the Movie, both are perfect, one of the greatest movies ever made.

[FactAnalyzer]

Agree

[krystianmupet]

prosta i piekna melodia.

extraordinary feeling

[IneptTroopr]

I think these are three different tracks of the soundtrack mixed together. The common theme that they share is truly amazing though, and kudos to the guy who mixed them did an amazing job timing the transitions just right.

[Desmus55]

Yeah, they were three songs mixed together into one.

Syriana (Main Titles)

Syriana (Piano Solo)

Fathers and Sons

Just if you were curious. And thanks for the comment!

[IneptTroopr]

Np, you did a good job.

Btw, I was just checking the soundtrack for Syriana and noticed that the track "Truce" sounds like a more sinister version of the Syriana theme.

[bdppbd]

I love the surprising heartbeat feel that approaches midway through...great.

[kalelio13]

One of the most amazing & truly mournful melodies I've ever heard......awesome stuff

I think it's in the E minor scale..Please correct me if I am wrong.

[evee700]

Eflat minor. Close though.
