The Expanded Soundtrack


Sooo... I found this website the other day...

http://www.mysoundtrack.ch/titre/t/taken.htm

Does anyone know if this was ever actually released? I'm one of the biggest Taken fans out there and what I wouldn't give for the entire score (or one of the 1500 replica alien artifacts that were produced O.o)

But anyway... I noticed while re-watching the first episode the other day that the opening scene of the first episode with Allie's monologue isn't on the album (the Beyond The Sky monologue where the camera pans into Earth).

The released album contained

1. Main Title
2. Spaceship
3. Artemis
4. Implant Mania
5. Romans
6. Mothership Arrival
7. To The Rescue
8. Ride
9. Tom's Revenge
10. Truth Kills Owen
11. Allie's Fire
12. Lift Off
13. Mary's Dream
14. Allie's Miracle
15. Allie Is Gone

And there are two tracks available from Laura Karpman's website
16. Lisa's Rescue
17. End Title



On the apparent "Expanded Motion Picture Score" (maybe a fan creation still)

Appearing on the Expanded soundtrack and not on the regular soundtrack...
Jacob Is Safe
Lisa's Rescue
Lisa's Baby
Chasing Allie
A Son's Return - I would guess this is Jacob returning to see Sally while Allie does the "You always come home to say goodbye" monologue.
Monsters Are Us
Owen's Second Chance
Anne's Crazy
Tom's Revenge (Edited Version)

Now... "Lisa's Rescue" is very close to the opening monologue scene but not quite. There's little variations.

Anyone know anything about this? I'm a HUGE fan of this soundtrack and through it discovered more of Laura Karpman's music (it's magic. Pure magic).

I have the regular soundtrack cd & found samples of the "TAKEN" symphonic compositions at http://www.laurakarpman.com/index2.htm Then click "Audio" there are 5 symphonic samples. Thanks for the link you found
