Next album ="Back to Titanic" is the second soundtrack album released for the movie, which contains a mixture of previously unreleased recordings and newly-recorded performances of the songs in the film.
After the incredible success of the first soundtrack album,
James Horner created a new suite of music, comprising light and dark sections from the score, which represents the "soul" of his remarkable music for the film.In addition, several of the source numbers from the film were included into this second album. From the haunting and unforgettable "Nearer my God to Thee" to the raucous pipe and
drum rhythms heard in theIrish folk music played in the lower decks, these selections recreate the most poignant moments in the life and death of the great ship."Alexander's Ragtime Band" was played on the deck by
Wallace Hartley 's small orchestra and lifted spirits as the ship settled, lights blazing, into black oblivion. And "Come Josephine, in my Flying Machine", which Jack Dawson briefly sings for Rose DeWitt Bukater and Rose sings when she is waiting to be rescued in the freezing seas. The song was a top hit song the year before the sinking.Track listing
