| Q: | What is the song playing in the credits as well as when she is getting choppered out? It is a Moroccan-type guitar tune that starts out slow and then picks up a bit?
(from matt
in CAli
) |
| A: | That should be "When Our Wings Are Cut, Can We Still Fly?" from Kronos Quartet... which can be found as Track 16 on the 21 Grams soundtrack. I can highly recommend both films and of course this fine piece of music! (thanks to ralf
, Vienna, Austria
) add more info |
| A: | OK, the song in the chopper scene and the one in the end credits are two different songs - the first is "Iguazu" by Gustavo, and the second I have no clue. All i know is it's worth the effort to find because it's beautiful!!! (thanks to mighty_max

| Q: | What are the chords in the last track (with the policeman in the bar and the father on the balcony with his daughter)? It's a little tricky working it out on the guitar. It sounds or feels a little like Merry Chrismas Mr Lawrence by Sakamoto. Very beautiful.
(from pete
in australia
) |
| A: | Yes it's a Sakomoto. "Bibo no Aozora / 04". Sorry don't know the chords (thanks to Bona
, Australia
) add more info |
| A: | I've got a working version of the chords you can try, I don't think it's totally right, but I'm going to keep working on it
First piano riff
Am G F
Second:
F Em Dm
Third:
F Em Dm (one octave up, though)
Then the part at the end of the cycle is Em and then C
Try that out. I think it needs some tweakin, because I seriously doubt that the chords would be that simple for a song like that. (thanks to Dan

| Q: | I've checked out a few different versions of "Bibo no Aozora," but none of them match the song that plays on Babel's DVD Menu. Can anyone specify what version, or exactly what the songs name is?
...from Sabih

(answer Sabih's question) |

| Q: | What is the name of the song played in the DVD menu screen? It has guitars and is a very beautiful track with no lyrics. It sounds like morrocan guitars or something along those lines. And it's not "Bibo no Aozora" as I have just purchased that and it wasn't it.
(from Lise
in new zealand
) |
| A: | It is "Bibo no azoro." The part you hear starts half way through song, so fast forward. (thanks to john
, sydney,australia
) add more info |
| A: | It is such an amazing song, I know exactly which track you mean. It is "Bibo no Aozora," but be careful... there are two versions on the soundtrack. It's on the 11:25 min version, not the 7:15 min version. That should make it clear for you. The 11:25 minute song is an amalgamation of three different tracks and the track your after starts around the 4:15 min mark. Enjoy! (thanks to Dan

| Q: | What's the ambient/drone music being played when the Japanese girl and her friend go to the fountain place and hook up with those guys? It lasts till the subway ride, right before they go into the nightclub.
(from Eddie

| A: | The song is called "September" by EARTH, WIND, & FIRE.
(thanks to Shizuka
, Los Angeles, CA/America
) add more info |
| A: | It's not "September" by Earth Wind & Fire. It's an ambient instrumental piece with heavy base going at the background, which lasts till the Club and is slowly amalgamated into the Club Track. Must be some other track! (thanks to Sumedh
