What is the "official" name for the soundtrack album. The vinyl has in big letters the words "Once Beyond Hopelessness", and that's what it says on the vinyl label too. So... I take it the official title is one of the two following:

"Christmas On Mars Soundtrack"
or
"Once Beyond Hopelessness: The Original Christmas On Mars Film Score by The Flaming Lips"

I think it's the second option.

on my iPod, I have it as "Once Beyond Hopelessness (Christmas On Mars)". I also put the original song titles behind the new ones where aplicable, like "Space Bible With Volume Lumps (Syrtis Major)" and added (Intro) and (Outro) behind the respective "Once Beyond Hopelessness"'s.

i know the christmas on mars song was a single just recently, (actually anyone who wants to up it for me, ive got your doses) but does anyone know why the best track on the film doesnt actually appear on the soundtrack? its the one when the alien superbeing shows syrtis major the hallucination with the astronaut with a giant pulsating vagina for a head, holding a dead baby.
thats not a sentence you get to type every day is it/ god bless the flaming lips

All of the really sweet stuff is left off of the soundtrack. That one. I want that xylophone suite. And the egg yolk freakout.
