Soundtrack Q & A
Q: There is an amazing cue (likely by Zimmer) that plays anytime Bruce Wayne and Rachel Dawes are together, most notably on the balcony at the party scene, and when she kisses him later in the film. Is this piece left off the soundtrack entirely? I can't find it! It's pure strings, dense, dark, essentially a 2-chord motif. I think the music was in Batman Begins as well, but here it is brought out as the love theme in the movie. (from val kilmer in seattle)
A: I think the one you are looking for is the Batman Begins theme. It's there but not as a specific track on the CD. And yes it is by Zimmer. It's generally called the "Theme of Batman Begins." (thanks to Gee, Kolkata,West Bengal,Indiaadd more info

Q: What is the song used in the trailer? (from Aj in ohio)
A: There are 4 trailers. Which one? (thanks to anthony, chicago, ILadd more info

Q: What's the song that appears in the part when Batman gets Maroni? It's an electronic song... (from luis1486 in Guatemala)
A: It should be "Scatterin Monkey" by Boom Boom Satellites (thanks to Siggyboy, North Haven, CTadd more info

Q: What track is playing when Batman is on top of a building in Tokyo??? (from Prady in Bangalore, India)
A: I believe the track you are looking for is simply encompassed in the one called "I'm Not a Hero" - you will find it there. It is a rather long track, but it is the most sought after Batman track for any Darknight fan... (thanks to Blade, Cali, Boiseadd more info

Q: What is the song playing when Lau (the chinese guy) is taken from Batman in the helicopter and is dropped in front of Gordon's police station?
...from Henry in Brooklyn,NY (answer Henry's question)
