\"TakenLiam Neeson’s character Bryan Mills will be seeing red again next weekend when the sequel to Taken<\/em>, simply dubbed Taken 2<\/em> this time, hits theaters, complete with a soundtrack that’s sure to keep the energy of the quick-paced action flick pulsing along as well. Most credit for Taken 2<\/em>‘s music is due to Nathaniel Mechaly, who penned an original score for both the breakout original and the latest effort, but their are a number of previously released songs of note appearing among the tracklist, too. Chromatics’ 2007 Night Drive<\/em> cut “Tick of the Clock”<\/a> jumps out right off the bat as a likely standout in the movie, but odds are the tune most ear-catching will be Alex Clare’s “Too Close,” the London singer-songwriter’s hit song that’s been steadily climbing up the charts in the U.S. and world over the past few months.<\/p>\n

The score with these films works fairly seamlessly within the songs by other artists, but for a reference, here’s just the Taken 2 songs not penned specifically for the film:<\/p>\n
