<P> Director Michael Mann initially asked Trevor Jones to provide an electronic score for the film, but late in the game, it was decided an orchestral score would be more appropriate for this historic epic . Jones hurried to re-fashion the score for orchestra in the limited time left, while the constant re-cutting of the film meant music cues sometimes had to be rewritten several times to keep up with the new timings . </P> <P> Finally, with the release date looming, composer Randy Edelman was called in to score some minor scenes which Jones did not have time to do . Jones and Edelman received co-credit on the film (thus making the score ineligible for Oscar consideration). </P> <P> The main theme of the movie is the tune "The Gael" by Scottish singer - songwriter Dougie MacLean from his 1990 album The Search . </P> <P> The score was re-recorded and re-released in 2000 to address some perceived problems with its original incarnation . The tracks were reordered into their onscreen chronology (the original album separated the Jones material from that composed by Edelman), some additional cues were added, and Clannad's "I Will Find You" was no longer included . </P>
