i really like some of the other songs on this soundtrack, great composer
and there was a female singer who putout an album. liked that too!

Strange show. I found it intriguing at first but lost interest after a few episodes because the storyline didn’t seem to be going anywhere. It just seemed weird for the sake of being weird.
Bring back the series “Jericho”.
Those girls were real foxes..Sherlyn Fenn..Lara Flynn Boyle.
Julee Cruise sang the song “Falling” that was layered onto the Twin Peaks instrumental theme.
This show was way ahead of its time. Really was more suited to being released now (I know Showtime has a remake but it can’t hold a candle to the original). But it’s one of those shows that was unprecedented.
Outstanding music that is best played late at night with a tumbler of bourbon. There was one particular song from that Julee Cruise album that has a surprise tempo change in the middle of it that always raises the hair on my neck when I hear it. I won't spoil it for others by mentioning the song but go ahead and stream the album and you'll come across it.
Dont forget Mädchen Amick. (Waitress Shelly Johnson).
I remember watching the entire series way back when. The thing that still sticks with me is the Mom’s reaction (Sarah Parker?) to her daughters death.
That still hurts my heart to this day. :(
Other than that, it was goofy and weird with REALLY good music, and totally unlike anything else we’d ever seen up to that point in TV Entertainment.
Was that first on HBO or another cable-only channel? I don’t remember...
P.S. ABC? Wow! Also, it’s no ‘Firefly!’
There will NEVER be another - because Nathan Fillion is getting too old and Ron Glass is dead. :(
JJ Abrams admitted in an interview they were just throwing every plot twist they could to keep the show running as long as possible.
After awhile there were so many twists that characters had no grounding.

I think what made Babylon 5 so good was that Straczynski had a five year plan for the show. That was largely kept to, except when it looked like they were going be cancelled at four years the "ending" got rushed, then they picked up a fifth year that was cobbled together.
“Was that first on HBO or another cable-only channel? I dont remember...”
It aired on ABC.
And yes, Laura’s mother’s reaction to her death was remarkably gut-wrenching and shattering. I still remember it well, after reading your comment.
that’s it I believe. I know I had a CD
I loved that CD...now lost.
