The only La-La Land scores I can immediately think of that have received reissues were for pretty iconic movies - Tim Burton’s Batman got reissued as a set along with Returns, and Die Hard got an even more expanded anniversary edition - but with the vast majority of their score albums, once they’re sold out, they’re gone.
Die Another Day isn’t even nearly in the same league as the few that have been re-released, so I’d say don’t hold your breath.
Well ignoring the fact that this thread should be celebrating the magnificent ohmss la la release ,I will say the only annoying thing for me about dad was the lack of the film version of graves grand entrance equally twine missing same for body double.
Is there a separate thread for the la la land reissues in general or is this it?
there are threads for each specific prior la la bond release
Interesting observation! I haven't listened to the entire soundtrack yet, but will keep that in mind when I do.
Oh ok maybe we should just have one big one
I just took care of that. :)

Thanks 😊
Problem solver?
I like how we now have the film versions of "Try" and the instrumental "We Have All the Time in the World" (not that the latter features in the film). To me it sounds like these versions were recorded with an electric bass, rather than an upright, as well as being faster in tempo.
I can only echo what others have said regarding "Prelude". Really nice piece, and I can just about hear the string part in the film, too, as someone else mentioned.
And I never realised how much I needed the film mix of Louis Armstrong's "We Have All the Time in the World"! So many lovely little guitar fills.
Ditto, the flute-led piece just before the end credits. That should have always been included, it's such a memorable moment, accompanying what's probably the most affecting ending to any Bond film.
I could go on and on, but I'll leave it there. Thanks once again, @nsb1234!!
Artistic merit aside, I honestly never much cared for the song before, but I’ve found myself enjoying the film version a lot. The guitar’s a relatively small difference (I never even noticed there was a difference when watching the film!) but it adds a lot to the song imo.
And I'm glad they didn't go with the "Unused Film Version": though it is interesting to listen to, the difference in tempo really makes it drag for me. We have enough slow instrumental versions of this song in the film as it is!
Thanks in advance for answering all these questions.
Nothing was recorded as 6M1 but when the train arrives you can hear "Do You Know How Christmas Trees Are Grown" twice, so it could in theory be 5M3 and 6M1. Similarly, there isn't a 10M3 slate, but the wild instrumental version of "Do You Know how Christmas Tree's Are Grown" plays twice, so one would be music 2 and the other music 3.
Yes.
Oh, you'd like to know what it is? 12M1.
I had the exact same material as Lukas. There was one take of different recording on the tapes, but it had a lead vocal and was not children only.
No.
Sort of. Take 1, which isn't the full cue.
No consideration.
They recorded multiple takes and refined the sound of the Moog as they went along. This is common practice and doesn't mean there's an alternate version of the cue.
Totally agree! Thank you so much Neil for everything you and the team are doing with the Bond releases! 6 in one year, we are so spoiled! Keep up the excellent work!
