Bear McCreary/YMMV

• Crowning Music of Awesome: The man is a genius.
  • See also The Cape (trope) and Human Target among others.
• Crowning Music Of Funny: "Battlestar Operatica", when the lyrics are translated. "Theme from Dark Void (Mega Version)", meanwhile, sounds exactly like a 1980s video game theme.
• Tear Jerker
  • "Gaeta's Lament" ("But wish no more, my life you can take, to have her please just one day wake....")
  • "So Much Life"
  • "Refugees Return"
  • "Gentle Execution"
  • The last notes of "The Heart of the Sun", signaling Galactica's last appearance on screen, deserves a mention. As does the first appearance of Roslin and Adama's love theme.
