Today's Videogame-Soundtrack-Related Poignant Moment 

That feeling when you're listening to a new soundtrack rip (in this case, the SPC dump of _Tin Star_ from the SNES) and your favorite track turns out to have gone unused in the actual game. Kind of like when a great soundtrack goes unheard outside the development team until many years later because the game was never finished or released (like _Green Lantern_ from the SNES). Good stuff hidden for so long!

@ElectricKeet Relatedly: my favorite track on the El Dorado soundtrack (The Panic in Me) never appears in the film.

@orrery Exactly! I totally get that not all content can make it into a final release, but it really stings when the best stuff is what gets left out.

@ElectricKeet For me it has a bonus-track feature on the order of "this song was hidden in the negative time of another track on the CD and doesn't show up on the track listing."
