Editing Das Boot (section)

==Soundtrack==
The characteristic lead melody of the soundtrack, composed and produced by [[Klaus Doldinger]], took on a life of its own after German [[rave]] group [[U96]] created a remixed "techno version" in 1991. The title theme "[[Das Boot (song)|Das Boot]]"<ref>{{discogs master|162882|Die Original Titelmelodie: Das Boot (Klaus Doldinger single)}}</ref> later became an international hit.

The official soundtrack<ref>{{discogs master|55391|Das Boot (Die original Filmmusik) (album)}}</ref> features only compositions by Doldinger, except for "{{lang|fr|[[J'attendrai]]|italic=unset}}" sung by [[Rina Ketty]]. The soundtrack ("{{lang|de|Filmmusik|italic=unset}}") released following the release of ''The Director's Cut'' version omits "{{lang|fr|J'attendrai|italic=unset}}".

Songs heard in the film, but not included on the album are "[[La Paloma]]" sung by [[Rosita Serrano]], the "{{lang|de|[[Erzherzog-Albrecht-Marsch]]|italic=unset}}" (a popular military march), "[[It's a Long Way to Tipperary]]" performed by the [[MVD Ensemble|Red Army Chorus]], "{{lang|de|[[Heimat, Deine Sterne]]|italic=unset}}" and the "{{lang|de|[[Westerwaldlied (song)|Westerwald-Marsch]]|italic=unset}}".
