38. False Start Music Guide

What follows is a list of all the music that appeared in the standard version of Robotech episode 38: "False Start." Bold text denotes that this is the first appearance of that piece of music.

ADDITIONAL NOTES: In this episode the Second Generation gets kicked-off properly with the expected heavy usage of "The 15th Squadron," as well as with the very surprising unexpected usage of a different piano version of "It's You."  Released on the It's You 25th Anniversary EP Preview, this version is known as "It's You (Piano Accompaniement)," and as you would expect by the title it's mostly the back-up harmonies intended to support the main melody. The only catch is there are two versions on the CD, "Take 1" and "Take 2," and they sound so similar I can't tell with 100% certainty which one is used! My best guess is Take 2, which sounds a little stronger than Take 1 and seems to match the closest. This is the second piece of background music used in the series that was released exclusively on the It's You EP (the first one being "It's You (Instrumental Version)" in episode #8, "Sweet Sixteen").
