Note from the producers[]
| “ |
How many television shows can you identify just by hearing the music? Very few. The fact that LOST is one of them is a testament to the amazing talents of Michael Giacchino. Michael created music for LOST that was unlike any we'd ever heard for a TV show or movie before it. It quickly became so indelible that his music didn't just compliment the show - it defined it. Listening to these discs, the range of emotions conveyed in Michael's work is truly incredible. From cues that are urgent and intense as the characters explore the island, to skin-tingling mystery cues as they try to unlock the island's secrets. Michael's deeply emotional scores still bring tears to our eyes even after dozens of listens. Occasionally, the show is even funny, and Michael nails that too. It's impossible for us to imagine LOST without Michael as our collaborator. As Hans Christian Anderson once said, "Where words fail, music speaks." And for each and every episode of the show, Michael Giacchino's music did exactly that. |

Trivia[]
- "LA X, Parts 1 & 2" has the most tracks on the album: 13.
- This album has music from every Season 6 episode except "The Candidate", "Across the Sea" and "What They Died For".
- Several tracks take their titles from the episode they appear in: "The Substitute", "Sundown", "Recon", "Happily Ever After" and "The Last Recruit".
- At 7 minutes, 54 seconds, "Moving On" is the longest track on this soundtrack.
- The score, unlike past musical releases, is not entirely chronological with its songs and their order on the album. For example, "Temple and Spring", a piece which plays after Sayid's death, is three songs ahead of "Coffin Calamity", a piece from when the survivors ventured under the temple wall with a still-living Sayid.
