I’m a huge fan of Lost (but you know that already), and I think what makes Lost stand out compared to every other show out there is the music.

Since season one, the very talented Michael Giacchino has scored music that not only brings the exact emotion required for each scene, but he’s also steadily composed ‘themes’ for each character like Jack, Sun and Jin, Ben, Hurley and everyone else. The music is played slightly differently each time, but always maintains the core of the theme.

My favourite track has got to be “Life and Death”. First debued at the death of Boone back in season one, it’s become a staple for the ’sad’ moments on Lost (including Charlie’s death in season three).

Watch the two deaths mentioned and see how well the music intertwines with the scene:
