    I don't think there is any soundtrack released for it (that would be so cool!! ^-^), and I've tried looking for downloads of the songs, all to no avail. T_T However, if you go to myspace.com, and look under music for, "The Track Team" (which are the people who made the music), and click on the pic with these guys running on a record player, you can listen to some of the music (although you can't download it). That's what I do when I want to hear some of it.

    The only song (or rather tune) the I absolutely know the name of is "Into the Nighttime Sky," which is the tune played at the end of Avatar Roku, Winter Solstice Part 2, and also at the end of Return to Omashu. Er...not sure how much help that was, but I hope it at least answered some of your questions.

    Yeah, the music is pretty good, I wish they'd put it in the Book 2 DVD or something as a DVD-ROM feature...

    Better yet, I wish they'd release a soundtrack. Listening to Zuko's theme would be pretty neat (whatever they consider it to be).

    One problem: Not everyone thinks the same way you do about certain songs, and this is not a music forum.

    If you don't like songs meant to be low-key because it's about the passing of someone's father, I understand. But every song can't be fast-paced thrillers.

    Sorry for getting off-topic...Nick would NEVER pay the fees to those artists and labels to use their songs on a special disk for Avatar. It might be nice, but will never happen.

    It's not a terrible song because of what it's about.?? It's because it's by Green Day (which sucks) and it is constantly played on the radio.

    Okay... I haven't even HEARD the song and I can tell that your way of presenting your opinions needs a lot of work. Just because it's written by a certain band does not make it suck (hey I'm not a big fan of Green Day either but you can't judge a song by its band), and just because it's played a lot on the radio does not make the song bad. It may make it annoying/repetitive, but the song itself is not altered in any way. Only the presentation is what you should dislike in the case of overplaying.

    I've heard it and I like it, But I would also like the music on Avatar. I hope they do have a sequal.

    The last thing Avatar needs is a compilation album. Scores are far better than that wussified sap list you're building there. As far as the scoring goes, I have never been attracted to any certain part of the soundtrack to Avatar and I usually keep an ear open for that. It's a rather unremarkable series, as far as that goes. Pick up an OST scored by Yoko Kanno. Those always get you.

    I still would like to see a CD with Avatar music from the series....putting songs from other bands which are not played on the series would kill the whole point of an Avatar music CD.We want Avatar music...not Green Day or Nickleback or whatever.

    Found the website of the band that makes the music...says that there should be some Avatar stuff up soon.

    Search for The Track Team on google.

    I love Green Day, but yeah, songs from Avatar are more instrumental, aside from the Iroh songs...and the last kicka** Sokka haiku that almost qualifies as a rap. Hey, I said 'almost'. I think instrumenal pieces suit the show better, they're more dramatic and you can still focus on what's happening in the episode. Worded songs would be too suggestive, possibly giving people the wrong impression of certain scenes, if that makes any sense the way I put it.

    Did you guys notice the music that was playing during Seige of the North pt1 while Sokka was receiving the warrior marks on his forehead. It sounds like the beginning of 'Four Seasons, Four Loves'.

    I think that Fort Minor "Where'd You Go" song would fit nice...with maybe Zuko or maybe for Aang, with all the people who've been waiting for the Avatar to return n all that stuff

    Because Iroh's 4 Seasons song became Sokka and Yue's love theme.

    if you still want the music from the avatar very badly; you can actually download it from myspace. all you have to do is install the programme realplayer and then you can download any video/music file you want. here is where you can find the programme:

    http://www.download-free-player.com/realplayer/realplayer-basic-windows-step1.php?ref=GA_DFP3_RP_0011_10

    I have already downloaded the music from myspace and I'm very pleased with it!!

    good luck!

    Isn't that illegal?

    The problem with the Nick executives, is they couldn't tell a good profit oppretunity if one ran up and slapped each of them in the face with those stupid action figures they tried to sell us. So there's no way we'll get the soundtrack.
