In 2010, a deluxe edition of the soundtrack was released and includes Maurice Jarre's complete, intended score with music cues that were ultimately replaced in the final film by Tina Turner's songs.[6] Although Jarre's alternate cues from the original album were included as bonus tracks, Turner's songs were not included, due to licensing issues (Warner Music currently owns copyrights to Turner's songs, at the time it was EMI).
