One of my most favourite tracks of the original soundtrack.

In fact, the only reason I bought the CD in the first place. It is also one of the most moving scenes in the mini series. Like when Capt. Kelly movies between the dead bodys of his fallen comrades, holding on to their dog tags (identity disks).

It's a shame the morons at NBC decided to pass on this kick ass show(but they picked up Knight Rider 3 1/2 years later instead). They deserve to be in 4th place in the Nielsen ratings. This is the best track from the whole mini-series.

Lords of Kobol...hear my prayer!!

[floodman56]

Is there no video of the actual scene this plays in up on Youtube?

[missparkerpretender]

The etherealness (?) of this song totally reflects the tone of the show. Spacey, with a little cylon/six theme lurking in the background. It was this scene and music that hooked me onto the series.

I am very glad that someone is continuing to listen to some of the best music to come of this show.

@Northwro

NBC didn't pass on BSG they own the SciFi channel. And because it took place in space and originated with a real SciFi show they decided to put it on a lesser channel, it would have been more popular had it been on NBC

Wow the first episode had the most dramatic songs OMG it makes me wanna watch the whole 1st season again. I couldnt Imagine how i would react to such losses in not even 3 days tops :(

[MrZingnigga]

but look at the rest of genre. trite, predictable, generic stories about shooting monsters.

I don't get why Sci Fi is scorned, Battlestar Galactica is the best sci fi show ever since Star Trek launched Sci Fi over forty years ago

This is my single FAVORITE piece of music in the whole series; and this is from a series that is positively LITTERED with gorgeous music!

Kudos to Richard Gibb and Bear McCreary!

This is exquisite, and I don't use that word lightly. I purchased the CD when it was released and since lost it...hearing it here is fantastic. It's such an evocative piece of music and perfectly captures the essence of the entire series as well...it's poignant, it's harrowing, it's truly, honestly sad! I also like the way this takes me back to those breathless moments of watching the miniseries for the first time, marveling at how frakkiin' AWESOME it is!!! This is GORGEOUS.
