isn't this an opening theme from the original ghost in the shell?
this was probably done around the release of Innocence as an additional promotion channel..

Nope, it's the opening theme from Innocence (re-titled GITS2 : Innocence for us Westerners) (cf. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iks8HAq7Q30 )

I never heard the Alex North's score.

Vangelis is very soothing. I actually found a internet radio station called Bluemars that plays alot of really nice spacey chill music.

Anyway here is the embed, just change the embed src with this i highlighted the change in bold, and it will start from the song.

I don't know how to do that fancy embed stuff. Maybe you could help me? If I spoke Japanese, that intro would be more entertaining..

I love Vangelis' soundtrack for Blade Runner. It's amazing.

Alex North's original soundtrack for 2001--which didn't get used, ultimately--is pretty great, as well.

I love having this movie play in the background just for the atmospheric music and dialog. Same thing I do with 2001 and Blade Runner.

Might wanna add a $start=160 or so to kick it off from the music. The introduction is pretty lengthy.
