History AwesomeMusic / Lost

* "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=InC_T2FjvL0 Life and Death]]", a beautiful and melancholy tune that accompanies scenes revolving around [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin life and death.]] Used when Jack resuscitates Charlie, when Shannon learns about Boone's death, when the passengers get onboard Flight 815 in the flashback in "Exodus, Part 2," when Charlie dies, when Sun brings Ji-Yeon to Jin's grave, when Juliet dies, when Sun and Jin die, and when Jack 'remembers' his life on the island, among other moments.
* "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v59nc1_7K1Q Hollywood and Vines]]", aka the "setting off" theme as it always plays when a group is going off to explore the jungle and has an air of adventure and mystery about it. Especially the part-TriumphantReprise, part-DarkReprise [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S_yVEzcG1Ss&t=337s variation]] used in "[[Recap/LostS03E22And23ThroughTheLookingGlass Through The Looking Glass]]" as the Losties set off on their most epic and dangerous journey yet.
* John Locke's first theme, "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WBF7IQUDxTU Crocodile Locke]], superbly compliments the badass survivalist aspect of his character.
* John Locke's second theme, "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A_btA1bS53w Locke'd Out Again]]", also known as his "tragedy theme", a fantastic, emotional piece that is a definite TearJerker every time it appears. It memorably accompanies the heartbreaking scene of Locke banging on the Hatch door the night of Boone's death.
* Kate's ''Film/{{Psycho}}''-inspired theme, "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NpvK-a-8DaQ Kate's Motel]]", a darkly energetic melody that fits very well with her life on the run.
* The music from "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YUEEHHqYqww Exodus]]" is stunning, especially over the saying goodbye montage in the episode.
* Ben's theme, "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HshIW6gXdaU Dharmacide]]", is almost perfect in representing him. There's the sinister first part, the tragic second part and a sort of mixing together for the third. Pure bliss.
* The haunting "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6aIvbg91Hvg Ocean's Apart]]" plays at the end of "Stranger in a Strange Land". It serves as Juliet's character theme. Especially in "[[Recap/LostS05E16And17TheIncident The Incident]]" when they [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lQaWkifYbPI combine the "Ocean's Apart" theme with the frantic strings and the "Life and Death" theme]] while Juliet is being pulled down into the Swan. Hauntingly poignant.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XqOtN9-J8gw Sweet Exposé]], the track that accompanies Nikki and Paulo being BuriedAlive, is just as much NightmareFuel as the scene it is featured in.
* "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wExVruYpZMA Time and Time Again]]", the freighter theme, varies between triumphant and ominous, reflecting the different faces of the freighter's crew.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U85AY5o189Y Desmond and Penny's love theme]], an appropriately moving piece to accompany one of the show's purest love stories. It most famously plays during their call in "[[Recap/LostS04E05TheConstant The Constant]]".
* The leitmotif of the season four finale, "There's No Place Like Home". The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=llsWZtl9WmY heartwarming version of the plane landing]] becomes [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AwizqyhIe3M the theme of terrible impending doom later on]], but it's powerful nonetheless.
* Jacob's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YAcajVxX4q4 wonderfully mysterious theme]] from "[[Recap/LostS05E16And17TheIncident The Incident]]" goes with the opening scene perfectly.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wI6GY-DgulU The Man in Black's theme]], a chilling DarkReprise of Locke's fourth theme, reflecting how his evil doppelganger has perverted what once made him special.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O8wVMSBR8ps Desmond's Flash-Sideways theme]] has a dream-like quality befitting his mission to "awaken" his friends.
* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GQY0g2nvoUI The theme of the Heart of the Island]] from "[[Recap/LostS06E15AcrossTheSea Across the Sea]]" does a great job of selling its mysticism, inspiring the right balance of awe and apprehension.
* "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J5wOHIi7xCU Moving On]]", the medley of themes from the final scene of the show as the various characters meet up in the afterlife and Jack dies peacefully on the island is a ''guaranteed'' tearjerker. You ''will'' be bawling by the seven minute mark.

* One of ''Lost''[='=]s most famous usages of non-original music is "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iQ7dTMPwUi8 Make Your Own Kind of Music]]" in the season 2 première, in which [[ItWasHisSled Desmond plays it in the Hatch]] during the opening scene. Not only does it cause a crazy SoundtrackDissonance, but it also has lyrics which still define Desmond for the duration of his time on the show.

* Season 3, "Tricia Tanaka Is Dead:" Hurley and Charlie are trying to jumpstart a van by rolling it down a hill and popping the clutch. Just as they are about to crash into some big rocks, the engine fires up, and the car's tape deck starts playing "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zwZOmB9Fi30 Shambala]]".

* The creepy DarkReprise of "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0eq_AuVBK4w Catch a Falling Star]]" that plays over the ending of "[[Recap/LostS06E06Sundown Sundown]]" as the Man in Black's crew stroll through the aftermath of the Temple massacre.
