Backbone.js Get First Element from JSON file

Question

while I figured out how to get the all of the elements from an array, I am stuck on trying to get an element belonging to the first. I am using Backbone.js and trying to edit one of my templates. The track information I am getting is coming from a JSON file. Can I do this within my HTML file or must I edit my .js file?

HTML:

    <script type="text/template" id="lesson-template">
         <span class="lesson-title"><%= title %></span>
         <select class="sel">
            <% _.each(tracks, function(track) { %> //this lets me loop through each of them
              <option value = "<%= track.text %>" ><%= track.title %></option>
          <% }); %>        
          </select>
//Now I want to figure out a way to just get the track.text of the first track here and put it in tracktext! 
          <p id="tracktext">Hello World!</p>
        </script>

Answer 1

<p id="tracktext"><%=  tracks[0].text %></p>

You don't appear to be using backbone collections or models here. Is this just a question about javascript and underscore templates perhaps?
