The first, which plays when Grovyle, Chimchar and Piplup cross the boundary of the the ocean and head into the Hidden Land, is a fully orchestrated version of the track but with triumphant horns and drums added in. The one-off Pokémon Mystery Dungeon anime special Explorers of Sky: Beyond Time & Darkness have two absolutely stunning renditions of the catchy track 'Sacrifice'.Some of the melody is re-used in the movie, so I assume it would have originally played when Rei ascends to Divinity and starts Mindscrewing with Reality.'Rei III', a more powerful version of Rei's leitmotif, was never even used.Well, it does play perhaps during one of the most iconic moments in the entire series, so it still has a fair share of exposure regardless.

The series only uses the song once and only about twenty seconds of it.

'I Shinji' of Neon Genesis Evangelion is considered a wonderful piece of background music for the character for whom it is named.

Tiana Lanster's 'Comet Shooter' similarly got cut back even though it gets reprised later in the series, they still don't use the longer version of it.

and only used during his Transformation Sequence that lasted around twenty seconds. A nice, blood-pumping piece that lasts around two minutes.

'Young Knight of the Lance', Erio's theme in Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha StrikerS.

To this day, I'm still trying to track its origin.

Likewise for this Gankutsuou trailer which has an awesome techno music that isn't in the OST or in the series.

Oh, but part of it is used in the fake movie trailer in the Mai-Otome omake. The old trailer for My-HiME features an incredibly awesome tune that is never used again, and doesn't appear in the OST.It uses another frequently-used melody (also heard in 'The Singing Sea,' and 'Stella by Moor') but without lyrics, something I think makes the song much more emotional. 'Farewell Blues' is another one to that list.'Car 24,' one of the sunniest, smile-inducing pieces written for the show, plays for about 30 seconds of screentime.

In the show, all we get is the very last stanza at the beginning of 'The Real Folk Blues, Part I' and the opening verse at the beginning of 'Speak Like A Child.' One episode also treats us to the very beginning of a very nice opera rendition that wasn't even put on any of the CDs! Most of Cowboy Bebop's score can qualify for this (which says more about Yoko Kanno's talent than the ineptitude of the producers), but a particularly blatant example is 'Adieu,' a smoky torch song based off of the recurring music box melody 'Memory.' On the soundtrack CD, it's a full-fledged, six-minute song.See also Cut Song, which doesn't even play in the first place. Other times, it's from a part of the game that was Dummied Out. Sometimes, this song was simply included in the sound test as an Easter Egg. Occasionally, this manifests as a tune found in the ' Sound Test' mode of a video game's options which isn't actually played anywhere in the game. However, a good enough player can usually hear the whole thing (or near enough), so it doesn't really count. If a game is really hard, the song may seem wasted as you rarely hear more than a few bars. That is, if the developers didn't shaft the song there, too. The moderate will then rush to the Internet and search Youtube, knowing that the hardcore have already downloaded the OST off Limewire and may have put it up for all to hear. More casual players or viewers may feel upset that they've missed it, if they succeed in noticing it at all. Like it didn't get the credit it deserved. Or maybe it's just put into the game in such a way it's hard to find.

Maybe a TV show has an awesome ending theme that gets covered up by ads for the next show. Maybe it was written for a specific Boss Battle. Maybe it only plays for a short period of time near the beginning of the game, which becomes Lost Forever after a certain point.

Maybe it only shows up in one out-of-the-way portion of the Bonus Level of Hell, which is almost impossible to reach for all but the most dedicated players. Maybe it's laid over a scene that's shorter than it is-or maybe the characters just won't stop talking over it. Thus is born the Wasted Song-a good (and sometimes even amazing) tune that barely gets any screentime. However, sometimes people can get a little overzealous with the allocation of songs. Every event needs its own special song all to itself. Nowadays, even the most obscure and minor works have soundtracks of epic, Herculean proportions.
