Customer Reviews

Beautiful, soothing and great for insomnia (and that's a good thing)
I won't belabor how beautiful and affecting every track on this CD is, just want to say I found a different use for this CD. Somehow it is so soothing and calming, I fall asleep when it plays. Now when I try to go to sleep on a plane or on my couch I put it on, and it works every time!

Galactica's Music:
I Love my CD!! I never thought that I would like music like this. But, since I heard it over and over while watching BSG, it was very familiar and I found it comforting. I listen to it both in the car and at home especially during yoga. The seller was honest about the product, it was new, still in the wrapping. I am satisfied with my purchase.

Really fantastic music
This soundtrack is just great, it has a very good consistency from track to track and it has some really unique rhythems and great percusion. I just really like the mix of voice and instrument in many of the songs.
