so I've listened to the opening theme........apparantly the composer is this much sought after video game composer.
Have you ever heard the soundtrack to Pirates of the Carribean? If you take THAT theme and smash it together with the Morrowind theme, you get the Oblivion theme. It's a good song, just not very original.

Jeremy Soule is decent(I've only heard Morrowind and Oblivion theme by him), but he's no Danny Elfman
I like the theme, 1:00-1:35 is enchanting

I love it! It definitely captures the spirit of what I always imagined this game to be like. Just like Morrowind, the tune fits the game.

I loved it torwards the end when it gets all slow and sadder . I preferred Morrowind's main theme though.

Listened to it and it indeed looked an awful lot like the Morrowind and Pirates of the Caribbean soundtrack smacked together but to say it was purdyfull, no, it was ok

Cool. Now we need some Big Pun and Biggie and Nas. Possibly Eminem too.

Cool. Now we need some Big Pun and Biggie and Nas. Possibly Eminem too. Yes if they want to ruin the game. Rap, Rock, and Metal don't sound good in RPG's and they should stay out of them. I like instrumental music in RPG's like many other people. I should say Orchestral music. Oh and on the theme...that is totally awesome. Vinya you're right about it sounding like Pirates and Morrowind mixed.

Of course it was sarcasm. I like fantasty stuff, and I like gangsta rap stuff, but not both combined in one .

Agreed on Pirates of the Caribbean similarities. Morrowind; of course. Originality? I guess (not). MSFD says: Given the plot and events to occur in Oblivion, it does call for this kind of theme, though, IMO. I'd go easy on "the call for heroism", but why not... I guess I like it, then.

The 1:00 bit reminds me of a girl sitting on a rock at night while gazing at the stary sky
Truly is enchanting

Does anyone know where I can find the music to the Oblivion trailer?

I'm not sure. It's a bit difficult to make it out over the whooshes and other fancy sounds, but I definitely haven't heard it in-game that I can recall, so it's not likely to be part of the soundtrack. Sorry.

I like Jasper Kyd more than Jeremy Soule.

Jeremy Soule has done everything. It's crazy. Dungeon Siege (original and 2), Neverwinter Nights, Guild Wars (original and Factions), the upcoming Prey, Morrowind, Oblivion, and a bunch of others I can't think of.
Morrowind's about the only soundtrack he's composed that I've really loved tho.

Looking back, I was disappointed by the soundtrack. I mean, I hadn't even cleared it once, and I was already putting on my own music. Didn't have that with Morrowind. But then, having your own music back then was a lot harder, and pretty stupid.
But it wasn't just that, I really felt "sucked in" with Morrowind, as opposed to this. Am I alone?

Yeah, I'm with you there. Oblivion was a lot more generic.
