Oh, sorry, I was talking about Jake's First Flight. Pandora seems to just be syllables, like the opening of Jake's First Flight.

About the 6th Toruk Makto song: I didn't write that nor is it on any soundtrack (that I'm aware of). It was written by a user on Na'viBlue.com. I only translated it for him.

We are all seeds,

Whose strength is in our legs
like the mighty trunks,
in our arms
As sheltering branches,
in our eyes
the blue-flower
which unfolds to the sun.
we are all seeds
of the Great tree
whose song is within us

I agree with 'Oma Tirea. As far as I am aware, ALL songs on the Soundtrack besides this are just random syllables. Anyone watch the Extras Disc from James Cameron's AVATAR Collector's Edition?

The DVD or the Blu-Ray? I only have the DVD and I don't recall anything being said on it about the songs in the soundtrack.

I have the Collector's Edition DVD and I do totally remember seeing the segment about them being syllables on the soundtrack. It showed the backup singers singing with their headphones on behind a music stand. I cannot recall any times to skip to or which segment it's on but it's on there, I'm pretty sure.

Ohhhhhh that! Yeah Iremember the part with the 2 ladies singing...but did James Horner actually say that it's just random syllables in the song? I can't remember what he said

There hasn't been an official mention either way as far as I can remember, but it seems logical from the fact that attempts to match them with words have failed, and the mention of the structure of such Na'vi songs in the survival guide.

TireaAean · #40 08-09-2011, 02:15 AM

did anyone put in the disc and see if it's there? cuz I cba atm. :\ I could have sworn Paul said something about being requested by Horner (or someone) for syllables possible in Na'vi for the score. I would totally not make this up and if this turns out to be false, to the mental hospital I go this instant.

'Oma Tirea · #41 08-15-2011, 06:13 AM

It was actually James Horner mentioning Paul, asking him to create some syllables, not the other way around.

When in doubt, review the disc/behind-the-scenes feature again. It should be in part 4 IIRC.
