A song was written for Belle for the musical episode but Emilie de Ravin didn't want to sing. It's a shame she didn't go for it. I would have loved a song from Belle. I wish the songwriters would post the demo so we'd know what it would have been like.
Q: If you had a song in the musical episode, what would your song be about?

Emilie de Ravin: I didn't sing on it 'cause I decided not to. I remember there was this long, solo thing but I don't have a beautiful voice or beautiful training like [Karen David] so I didn't want to learn on a TV schedule.

I hope so!

I wish she had sung it, too! Auto-tune, why not? By the way, Sotiris said about Rumple not giving the Guradian the dagger because it would turn them dark, that din't make sense because the Guardian was supposed to be able to stay light, right? Yeah, I agree with that.

As I understand it, the Guardian is the person who can take Dark One's power (so, simply become a Dark One) but won't be corrupted by darkness. So, for example, would Alice take darkness from Rumple, she would become a Dark One, with all of his powers, but she would be able to resist it, unlike Rumple, Emma, Hook etc. Rumple didn't wanted Alice to become immortal like him.

Well done Once ! Always unnoticed, but at least they've got something for the final season.

Well, those won't get a soundtrack release. The only reason season 7 did was because of the Emmy nomination.

Are these the tweets you're referring to? That's more like wishful thinking than a real attempt on his part at getting it done. Don't hold your breath, is all I'm saying.
Q: Do we get seasons 3-6?

Mark Isham: Hopefully some day, we will keep working to try and make this happen!

Q: 5 years of waiting for the soundtrack CD release from Season 3, only to find out that I've just wasted my time (and hope) on something that was ultimately going to be skipped altogether?

Mark Isham: I totally understand. We will continue to do our absolute best to try and get these seasons released to you guys!
Source: https://twitter.com/markisham/status/10 ... 6225719297
Q: Will it just be the season 7 soundtrack that is being released? Or a new season 1-7 complete soundtrack?

Mark Isham: Just Season 7 as of right now, but stay tuned...
Source: https://twitter.com/markisham/status/10 ... 5513008129
Q: Are Seasons 3 to 7 available to buy on Amazon?

Mark Isham: We are working hard on getting those seasons out to everyone!

I wish they used a different cover on the main box instead of season 7's one because it is not representative of the whole series.

It's really weird that they're using that image to represent the whole series. Especially since Season 7 is the least popular and recognizable season so you'd think that literally any other season's image would have sold better.
