With its time-traveling premise, The Way Home has always heavily relied on music as a crucial part of its storytelling.

In the early seasons, popular songs from the late 1990s and early 2000s set the mood for Alice’s trips to the past. Then, in Season 3, iconic tunes from the 1970s were integral to the story of how young Colton and Del first met and fell in love (with a little help from ABBA’s “Waterloo”). The original songs of aspiring musician/singer-songwriter Colton also played a heavy role in the episodes, with his future granddaughter Alice contributing her voice to a recording of his ballad “Breathe.”

And yet, there is no soundtrack release or way to digitally stream or download the tracks written specifically for the show, which also include Colton’s love song for Del, “Everything I Wanted,” and two Port Haven folk songs from the 1800s, “Fare Thee Well” (written by the show’s composer Keith Power and singer/songwriter Alan Doyle, who also co-penned “Breathe”) and “By the Light of the Moon.” (There are Spotify playlists of popular songs featured during the first three seasons, but not the original tunes.)

Co-showrunner Heather Conkie is aware of the fans’ desire to download the memorable tracks and told TVLine ahead of the Season 3 finale, “We’re working on it.”

While releasing a soundtrack of the well-known songs from the ’90s and ’70s would probably be too difficult, “we do have a handful of original songs, as well as some really beautiful score that Keith Power has also written, that we have a little bit more leeway with,” co-showrunner Alexandra Clarke says. “It’s been so lovely to see a lot of people asking about it, and we’re really hopeful that we can make something happen, especially with those songs, because we want them to be heard. Thing is, with these episodes, you only hear a little fraction of them, but they’ve been fully recorded by our cast, and they’re beautiful.”

Adds Conkie: “The ‘Breathe’ song, in particular, we actually spent the time on the day that we filmed that to do the whole song, because all you hear is bits of it, actually, in the edited show. But we do have Jordan [Doww] and Sadie [Laflamme-Snow] singing together the whole song from beginning to end, and that’s something I really want to see edited, beautifully, and put online, at least.”

Conkie also singles out some standout covers by the series’ talented stars, including Chyler Leigh and Evan Williams singing Fleetwood Mac’s “Silver Springs” (“Just a beautiful version of it, and they’re stunning,” she raves), and says she still thinks about Leigh singing Alanis Morissette’s “You Learn” in Season 1.

Casting actors with musical chops who can perform was key for the mother-daughter showrunning team, who note that Williams is a pianist/singer in real life and that Miranda Millar, who played Elliot’s ex-wife Emma, is a violinist like her character.

“Mom’s a trained concert pianist, classical pianist,” Clarke says, “and making it authentic, making sure it doesn’t seem like we’ve just pressed play on a track that they’re lip syncing to is such a hugely important thing for us. It has to feel real, and yeah, I think it did.”
