Mark Mothersbaugh and The Life Aquatic

I went to see The Life Aquatic last night with Nina and Mikki. Great film. Reminded me of Wes Anderson's other work, except that I liked this one. I'm wondering if I should reinvestigate Rushmore and The Royal Tenebaums since it seems like everyone who's opinion I respect likes these films.

Anyway I really liked Mark Mothersbaugh's work on the soundtrack and was dismayed to find that the simple casio-like song piped into the helmets of the divers was not included. Just as with Kill Bill, my favorite song in the movie was not included on the soundtrack and they lost a sale as a result. Luckily, I'm not the only one who enjoyed the song and someone put it on the web.

This link will probably rot quickly. But I have the tune now and that's all that matters.

Mouser, the piped-in song isn't included, but track #16 "Ping Island/Lighting Strike Rescue Op" is like the extended version of it. The rest of the soundtrack is quite good.
