If you got the download link for Eyes from this post, I haven't verified it, but by looking at the url for the download, it appears to be the wrong song. Instead, go two posts earlier, or go to http://snurl.com/RWEyes for "Eyes".

Is there a site with a version of "Eyes" that you can actually download?? The link above goes to Myspace, and it is a streaming version that I can't capture. :p

 Re: Heroes Music
In episode 1, when Claire is saving the man from the train, the music is supposedly "Glosoli" by Sigur Ros (source). In the bar in Tokyo, "I Want it That Way" by the Backstreet boys is playing. Later, when Hiro teleports to the bathroom, "Kore Ga Watashi No Ikiru Michi" by Puffy is playing (source). And of course when Nikki is stripping at the beginning, Mustang Sally plays, but I'm not familiar enough to know whose version it is (someone said "Albert Collins").

In episode 2, when Hiro is running away with the comic book, the tune that plays seems to be by Panjabi MC from Legalised - "Jatt Ho giya Sharabee" (minus the Magnum PI intro).

In episode 3, at the bonfire, Keith Urban's "Where the Blacktop Ends" plays. A different country song plays when Claire and Brody are in the stands, but that's pretty soft... someone may be able to make out the lyrics or identify it, though.

In episode 4 when Ando is gambling at the roulette table, Basement Jaxx is playing "Do Your Thing" (from their CD Rooty) in the background. There is a different upbeat (techno) song playing when Ando is at the card table with High Roller, but Google doesn't have results for the lyrics.

In episode 5, Matt plays Lizz Wright's "I'm Confessin'" for his wife.

The chanting music that is heard several times though the series (most recently at the end of Episode 6) seems to be a redone version of Madonna's "Shanti / Ashtangi". (source)


Edit: update with more of missing songs

Hi all,

I'm a french Heroes fan and i would like to know if anyone can help me to find the name of a famous and really present Heroes's music.

I've extracted this On the Heroes episode 1 name "Genesis" and give you a link to see the 37s video extract. This is just a music not a song & I'm love in it ! :)

The most interresting song part is situated 1s before the dialogue "...We have to stop it..."

Thanks in advance. ^^

 Re: Heroes Music
I've done some searching, and there's a lot of "false" claims around about the "signature" Heroes music.

So far I can confirm, it NOT....

Glosli by Sigor Ros
A rework of Madonna's Shanti / Ashanti
Heaven by Nidji

All else failing, I've had a crack a patching it together myself
See what you think.... My Attempt - on MySpace

 Re: Heroes Music v2
I've done another version... Second Attempt

Both versions available as MP3 Here (Torrent)
Use the torrent link above if possible, and please seed to at least 2:1 and more if you're feeling "heroic"

v2 also available via Donkey / Mule ..

or search for : heroes shenkar
There's another file out there.. but it's just a sequence of "raw" samples from the show.. jammed together one after the other.
Look for (heroes-tv.com) in the filename.

If for any reason you can't use the torrent or ed2k...
I've put both files on Rapidshare...
You'll have navigate the "Free / Premium" screen, enter the code, and you may have to wait, and you may not be able to get it straight away if the download limit has been reached.
Hence.. Use the torrent / ed2k if possible.

Rapidshare : Heroes Music

 Re: Heroes Music
i can't believe you guys are totally over looking the obvious! all that "source" you mention is actually cues written by LISA COLEMAN & WENDY MELVOIN. the one used with claire in the fire is called THE FIRE CUE. a lot of information can be found at http://www.wendyandlisa.com and there use to be some cues from Heroes here http://www.myspace.com/girlbrosnetwork someone asked about the part at the beginning of Heroes over the eclipse, that is also Wendy & Lisa, not some song by an icelandic band! i felt compelled to respond especially in light of the recent emmy award nominations, and obvious snub in the music category!!

 Re: Heroes Music
Wow, this page has been extremely helpful so far. But I am still looking for a piece of music from the first episode - the music that plays toward the end when Peter jumps. I THINK that's the part...it's somewhat fast-moving and has a string part in it. I loooove it and if anyone can tell me where to find it that would be wonderful. Thanks!!

 Re: Heroes Music
Nice, i already searched such a topic.

In the first episode of season 2 around the 8th minute was another track which isn't listed here (yet). It was played in Wests car while he almost run over Claire.
Does anybody know this track?

 Re: Heroes Music
I'm very interested in the original score music (such as the music briefly played in every intro scene, when the eclipse happens), and i'm also interested in any orchestral music played or produced in the heroes show. So im wondering, is anyone planning on creating a original score album? If they havent, GET ON THAT!! People will want it, I guarantee it. Well, mainly, im saying this because I want it, but, other people do too

As well as the original score music soundtrack, I think the heroes production management (or whoever does the music creation) should create a complied music album of the various artists as well. You could also create a complied album of the various artists and the original score music, that would be sweeter album.

So, to get back to my main question, is anyone in the heroes production management planning on creating a heroes music score album?

Just in case anyone wants to know

Mustang Sally was originally done by Mack Rice and recovered the following year by Wilson Pickett. In addition, the "version" played on the first episode was done by Buddy Guy with Jeff Beck, not Wilson Pickett.

 Re: Heroes Music
hello people!
I was wondering if anyone knew where i could find the mohinder music ( as i have decided to name it lol) basically it's the music that tends to play whenever mohinder is around for example when peter fought sylar and mohinder was spectating on the ceiling.
I too think it would be a great idea to release a soundtrack because it would undoubtedly heave the mohinder music on it
thankyou (unless you don't find it lol) but even if you don't i love you anyway!
