Broken Arrow Soundtrack Theme - Hans Zimmer (Alternate Version) (Tracks 1 & 8 Mix)

Thanks guys for watching the video (thanks Hans for making the music). Funny how every video I have with "Hans Zimmer" tagged gets thousands of views, while everything else (even other musicians' music) gets a few views a month. I made the 11 min Loop playlist (which this is not part of) to broaden your horizons. Check it out!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vLvYEYt5hP4&feature=PlayList&p=430DBB0...

This is the never-before-heard version of Broken Arrow. It is actually Track 1 (Brothers) mixed into Track 8 (Broken Arrow) so that finally we can hear the extraordinary intro adjacent to the extraordinary end (Track 8). The first 1:30 min of Track 8 is gone, actually, but it's repeated at the end of the track anyways, so you won't miss it. I think that this edit magnificently encapsulates the soundtrack experience as if you where listening to it from start to finish.

I thought, since it's just music, it would be appropriate on YouTube to at least put images of Director John Woo, and Composer Hans Zimmer, for those of you who've never seen images of them before.

The dove is there only because it's signature John Woo (a dove or white bird has a presence in almost every one of his movies except this one and maybe Face-Off).

For another edit of Zimmer's Broken Arrow, check out our 11-min loop of the most epic 23-seconds of the soundtrack:

Isn't this, at least towards the end, very similar to a track in Scream 2?

[MovieMongerHZ]

@PharaohHazard similar would be an understatement. it is in fact the same. both were made by fox. fox owns the broken arrow soundtrack, so they decided to use it to fill a musical cue in scream 2 (i'm guessing 'cause the editor used it as a temp track before the composer got his hands on the edit and the director liked it too much or the composer ran out of time to score that cue so they just left what they had).

@SearchingYT IDK why people don't like the movie. Broken Arrow is a GREAT film. In fact, it's a character piece! It's purely character driven, and Travolta is the coolest he's ever been in any movie - ever! It's so super-charged, and I love it for that!

hans zimmer has made a lot of great themes. this one stands out to me. it definetly gives the movie a great feel. that is why i love broken arrow. the theme to face off doesn't even compare to this.

Love the movie(That's how I discovered John Woo) and I love this theme, it's awesome.

John Travolta is just sooo damn cool as Deekins, no doubt. The ONLY thing(as a John Woo-fan)missing is Woo's trademark pidgeons(Al though he deserves credit due to the location - they would have seemed out of place. Maybe he has hidden one as an easter egg and I've missed it - gotta check that out:)

And yes, it's also in Scream two - When Dewey and Gale meet if I'm not mistaking.

Sowas nenne ich eine Kunst. Hans Zimmer hat auch hier ein wahres Meisterwerk abgeliefert. Ein Genuss für meine Ohren!!!

"Broken Arrow" is one of my guilty pleasures, and Zimmer's music is a large part of it... That's Duane Eddy ("King of the Twang Guitar") playing a baritone axe on the main theme. Lovely! Thanks for mixing and posting this mash of the intro and outro!

[Yepikayai]

@PharaohHazard yes it is also the sound of scream 2

[1987billman]

I love this movie and this theme. I can listen to it for hours. it just has that certain...feel to it. travolta plays a great character in this movie and it's refreshing to see him in something other than a good guy role.

[DrakullKrauser]

Broken Arrow one of my fav movies!!! its so perfect made!! The characters and the story is perfect and the theme!!

[SuperboyConnerKent]

I gotta get a B-2 simulator...

[srivtre]

@PharaohHazard : yes.... they copied from broken arrow(1996)...

scream 2(1997)

[GilissenKim]

This movie was great idd, John Travolta was perfect for the role, but i think that Slater his acting wasn't really good, he never was really good at it in any movie.

FACE OFF is the best movie of John Woo !!!
