Why is it that the music in the anime and the music on the soundtrack diffrent? -_- The music in the actualy anime tend to be better than what's on the soundtrack -_-
1. Music in anime is cut for length and context, while soundtracks have the entire artist's rendition of the song without length constraints. The music artist and the producers have differing ideas on the context in which a song is used.
2. (going back to context) Listening to music in an anime lends itself to a certain nostalgia. You know the characters, the setting and the mood for the particular scene you're watching that a certain song is in. All these elements together make up the song's experience for you. Listening to the raw music tracks one after another has less meaning for you, becuase there's no "meat", so to speak, in between.
Actually I just pulled all that out of my ass, but it may have truth to it.
There's this one track in Tsukiyomi - Moon Phaze that;s in the anime that has this wonderful cello/base melody line and on the soundtrack you instead get this wailing femail voice for most of it. Twas the one sparking this coment. Can't remember the others I've had that thought on before off hand. Though the Melody of Oblivion Sountracks had the annoyance of having a track that hadn't been in the anime, and not having one that had been in that I REALLY wanted.

"Oh boy, exciting!"
*soundtrack does not have season opening theme or some of my favorite BGMs*
"Gee...great..."
Oh well, it was a learning experience.
