I don't even know what to say to this. Just watch...or, rather, listen. Goddammit Christopher Nolan, you unrepentant mindfucker!

Hanz zimmer deliberately used that song in different ways for the Soundtrack, so I'm not at all surprised.

Literally JUST came home from the movies. My movie of the year so far and it's little details like this that made it so amazing.

Well, they did merge the two songs in the actual movie... repeatedly... so it's not that surprising. Still cool though.

Wait, if it's the same song then... I must be dreaming.  Where's my totem!?

Seriously, I could feel the smile creeping across my face once the halfway mark hit. 
Pure awesome.

Hans Zimmer I guess still has some talent left.

I felt the "holy shit this is awesome" tingle down my spine just listening to the musical cue. That's the sign of a good score/film harmony.

Inceptions score is noticeably very experimental for Zimmer. This only adds to that level of absurd genius.

As a aspiring music composer/industry worker... All I can say is.

I've been listening to this for a week, I wondered why there was stuff written in poop on my walls.

"I regret nothing", a pretty apropos choice of tune, too.

The Edith Piaf song is on the soundtrack too, it just pops in over one of the tracks towards the end.
 
You don't expect it. Then you wonder if it's on the soundtrack at all, and if in reality you're really dreaming, and someone's playing it to you as you lie somewhere, unconscious.
 
Then you don't sleep for a week because you don't know what's real anymore.

I do love how that parallels the time compression as if the full speed song is coming through to us from another layer. Reminds me that I sat through the credits and "Non, je ne regrettete rien" plays at the end before transitioning into the main theme as the Title Card appears, thought that was giving a hint to something.
