Kingdom Hearts Original Soundtrack is the official sound track for the PlayStation 2 game Kingdom Hearts. This 2-CD set contains nearly every piece of music that was in the original version of the game ("One-Winged Angel" by Nobuo Uematsu and "Night on Bald Mountain" by Modest Mussorgsky aren't included due to not being present in the original release of the game), composed by Yoko Shimomura, with vocals done by Utada Hikaru on "Simple And Clean" (also called "Hikari" in the Japanese version of the game, and game soundtrack), and on "Simple And Clean -PLANITb Remix- (Short Edit)". Tracks 2-34 and 2-35 are bonus tracks.

[edit] Track listing

Note: Although this is a Japanese CD release, all songs, with exception of Hikari, have their names in English.

Also note that not every song from the game is in this soundtrack. As this was the soundtrack for the original Kingdom Hearts, added tracks from the international versions and -FINAL MIX- were not included, and were released separately.
