Heat: Unused Original Finale Score by Eliot Goldenthal 

the moby theme was sad but uplifting at the same time

Heat is my favorite movie since I was 9. 23 years later...same choice

"told you i'm never going back" "...yeah..." The electric guitar kicking in makes this track absolutely amazing.

Still gives me goosebumps, but no where near as much as Moby's version 😳😊

Such a beautiful piece of music. When I first heard it at the end of the film Michael Collins I loved it very powerful

My God. This score is incredible! It should have been used! It captures the moment of the two “gladiators” as one falls. Eliot Goldenthal is genius. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I remember hearing this at the end of Michael Collins and thinking that this piece alone made watching the movie worthwhile, even if it was an interesting movie otherwise. It's a shame it never got the recognition it deserved because it is truly incredible

Sounds almost like the music played when Dillinger (Depp) gets assassinated in one of Mann's other great crime-thrillers 'Public Enemies'. If so, it was obviously tweaked for that film. Not the EXACT same as here, but the bars sound very similar. Powerful stuff, but do I agree with some others below....Moby's music captures the feeling longing & loss of both characters. And the sense DeNiro was taking off to somewhere else, ensuring his fate of not being attached to anything & Pacino had found what he had been longing for, but now lost it. It was the realization of that, sad & yet beautiful all at once. Fulfilling. Hence the imagery of Bobby facing one way & Al facing the other. You couldn't get a more complete ending than that. One of the MOST (if not THE most) iconic & moving final scenes in motion picture history in the last half century! My opinion, the MOST epic! (sorry for using that type of language;) Love, love, LOVE this film forever! Thank you Michael Mann :)

I love the urgency of this piece.

To be honest, this actually fits the tone of the movie more than the Moby one. But I still think that the Moby one is better. This final score felt very tough and dramatic like the entirety of the movie and it would've worked it they used it. However, the Moby finale score made the ending feel sad but also uplifting which was a sharp shift in tone to end the movie which worked to perfection. I'd love to see a version with this song implemented but the Moby finale will always be the best

This is epic music. They didn't want epic, but this movie was an epic and it deserved this piece to bring it to a conclusion. Monumental piece of music....

I love how this music was later used in Michael Collins at the end

wow thank you. my all time favorite movie. I nearly cry no matter how old this ending gets..

You can’t go wrong with Moby’s finale, which fit the ending perfectly. However I do prefer this, but it’s like the difference between 10 and 9.99999999 forever. But to be honest, Goldenthall’s piece works better in Michael Collins because he incorporates all those strings to add a Gaelic feel to it, and it makes it so much stronger. So this is that rare situation where everyone won: Heat got a moving finale to (in my view) one of the greatest films ever made. Michael Collins got that unbelievably awesome piece to end the film, making the old black and white videos of Collins’s funeral incredibly powerful. And fans got to hear and enjoy both.

This deserves head phones at 0:17 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 that piano is hypnotic

Mann made the right choice. And this going at the end of Michael Collins instead also worked so well.

great...but Moby was the right choice....

well used at the end of Michael Collins film , the actual archive footage of his funeral is shown while this is played in the background . It worked very well

I actually think I prefer this music and I love Moby's "God Moving Over the face of the Waters". I wish we would get a Blu-ray release with both versions of the film, with one version including this. This is phenomenal.

Masterpiece, both the film and the soundtrack. 👏👏❤ 2:09 in my imagination this is the moment when Pacino shakes De Niro's hand.

Ah. So this is how Michael Collins got its wonderful finale...

My all time favorite movie. I was stunned then when I seen it first, and am still amazed how this movie made me emote so strongly to the characters.

SO POWERFUL

this soundtrack would have perfectly fitted for heat

Dude this was in the final scene of Michael Collins. Thanks for reminding me👍

Moby was the right choice...thank God bc it's a masterpiece 💙👌

that was a so freakin good movie

Wow....this was amazing, must have been a hard choice. I think this actually fits the film's subject matter better, but there is was something transcendent about Moby's composition that was understandably hard to let go.

this is just as good as Moby's track....AMAZING

Very similar soundtrack to John Dillinger's death in Public Enemies

crazy how similar this and the moby track kind of sounded in the end.

To me, the correct score was used for each movie. "Michael Collins" is the story of a man whose life and death left a massive impact _on an entire country,_ so an epic-sounding score was appropriate. "Heat" ends with a quietly reflective moment after a struggle between two individuals, so a more subdued score was appropriate IMO.

moby at the end It's just so emotional and perfect I just hoped that in the end, they add a scene with Al Pacino and his wife and the kid and everything is good between them wait no moby was ...... life, breath, sad, hope, everything I love AL Pacino your are a legend

On the video cassette I watched this was played as Val drove away from his wife and son forever

Neil and Vincent were like brothers fighting each other.

this is actually pretty awesome, so was the moby, either would have been big

Holy crap, that was amazing! Always wondered what Eliot G. came up with. Where did you get this from??

Imagine if this music was used in the Schumacher Cut of Batman Forever, where Bruce and Chase say goodbye and Chase asking Alfred if it ever ends. And Alfred telling her not in this lifetime. #ReleaseTheSchumacherCut

Do you have a link to the painting in the video? I searched google and not sure how to find it. Thanks

Something I dislike about Michael Mann is that he tends to discard plenty of music from the original scores.

Best movie ever

This ended up being used for the closing of Michael Collins. It is a phenomenal piece of music with such an enormous emotional scope that I would argue it is too good for Michael Collins. But once you know it was written for this it makes total sense. Nearly three hours of building mood and tension cascading into it's beautiful finish.

i love this movie best action movie ever

This track was used at the ending of the movie "Michael Collins" (Liam Neeson)

This is shockingly good. Moby's song worked very well, but this fits the tragic feel of the film's climax a lot better.

Looking for the piece of Goldenthal score used while Hanna stalks McCauley next to the power generators at LAX. Just a brief piece of music from 2:42:24 to 2:43:28 just before the Moby finale begins.

the musicians of the movie neve cease to amaze me

heat is best film ever

This one is pretty good too but i don't know I just feel like it should be used for another movie. The one we ended up getting was great for that specific movie Imo

It has cop vs robber vibes but I think it more fits into mob story because my brain visualised "Mafia The City of Lost Heaven" in my mind.

This piece was later used for the ending of Michael Collins. It was used for his funeral scene...Same impact....Should have been used for Heat. It is depressing, and it is supposed to be....

No I think it was a wise choice Moby this song a little for hope and action but Moby was so full of emotions really fits

J adore se film et la musique est superbe !!

I felt this song wasn't depressing enough for the movie, hence it being cut

Heat is my number 2!!

And it was used for Public Enemies many years after... Listen JD Dies and tell me this is'nt the same score.

So powerful

Great score! No pun intended. But Moby’s sneaks it for me. Though I would love to see the ending with this overlain.

Great piece of music, but better suited to Michael Collins.

so epic

2:30 "Some man just want to watch the World burn"

I thought alternate credits score was the track they used when Vincent was driving to catch Neil for a coffee.

heat is in my top 3 films of all time and this is good but.... orig is better

I think it would've worked either way.

R.I.P micheal collins

Has a bit of an Alien 3 vibe to it. Not surprising, considering it's from the same composer. Does this track have an official title?

... Directed by Michael Mann.

Good music, where can I download this?

For some reason your comment was marked as "spam", and I can't "unspam" it! I found it on a website reviewing and comparing the two pieces of music, but I was also given the bootleg of the unreleased score ages ago (can't find it tho)!

God moving over the face of water was the right choice. But this good as well.

Think this got used later on in another Michael Mann film if I’m not mistaken, called... “Collateral” with Tom Cruise & Jamie Fox?

this is better but the end credits is brilliant

WOW !

what is this piece of music called someone please

Reminds me of public enemies one

a lil mouse in a field !

You can just hear "Public Enemies" in this!!

Good choice to stick with Moby

Why didn't they use this?

Moby's 'God Moving Over the Face of the Water' is superior to this one.

does this have a title?

Yo not bad just hope ff7 use this in remake it will suit it I like it

They recycled a lot of this on Public Enemies.

👊👊👊👊👊

Regarde sous le tapis de ton camion

Mobys if much better

◾️ _C/,/AsS¡C_ Traum

This one is stupid... Moby rules

Original is better

This is a wonderful piece, but the Moby song used at the end of Heat fit the scene way better in my opinion. This song is a bit too depressing.

Nice but overly dramatic

This is trash compared to Moby’s God Moving Over The Faces of The Waters

Pretty good but it's too "Dark Knightish"

Mediocre
