- discussion topic Best Songs Based on Film Themes
- Comment There’s probably already a thread for this, but when I was listening to The Land Before Time and hearing Diana Ross sing the main theme with lyrics, it got me thinking of some of the movie themes that made their way to being turned into a song with lyrics. Either done by the composer (looking at ...

- Comment It was hot in my kitchen the last evening, so I thought about putting on some cooling music - and [b]Dunkirk[/b] came to mind, so I played that. Does anyone else ever think of scores as having a temperature to them? Other than horror, like chilling, cold=evil...but other genres? Would you put on a ...

- Comment Cool, thanks - I'll have to check that one out sometime! NP: [b]Godzilla: King of Monsters[/b] - wow, just wow, still LOVE this one! Bear McCreary just kills it in the percussion department and it's amazing! And kind of mimics/messes with your heartbeat almost!

- Comment Oh yes, I meant to add The Thin Red Line to my list as well, brain fail! Oh, I do love Spanglish too! That's a wonderful one! I just listened to Beyond Rangoon while I ran errands early today. So beautiful, and one of his more unique ones I'd say. Thanks for highlighting some of your favorites ...

- Comment NP: [b]Julie & Julia by Alexandre Desplat[/b] Completely disliked the movie (even as a Francophile and avid cook) but I really love the music! It has the spunk, positivity and enjoyableness that is missing from the movie. I'm so glad Desplat signed on, as there seems to be some of his own joy ...

- Comment [quote][b]LSH wrote[/b] NP: [b]DEEP IMPACT[/b] - JAMES HORNER I like this. The main theme is good, quite Apollo 13-ish. The score meanders a bit... but in a good way. The final cue is spectacular Horner. Shame the recording is so poor.[/quote] That's one that I've failed to really listen well to. ...

- Comment [quote][b]christopher wrote[/b] I've heard lots of other familiar Horner themes on these earlier scores and realized that many of the themes and motifs that I thought were from a later score were actually in one of his very early scores. Of course I'm familiar with all his thematic recycling. It's ...

- Comment I've been listening to [b]A History of Violence[/b] by Howard Shore. It definitely has LOTR familiar flavors, but it's very melodic and relaxing for a cd cover that has a giant pistol in the foreground - I would have expected a more, well, intense, score with that kind of imagery and it's just the ...

It's not just about the fact that it depicts a very sad situation and emotion. It's the warmth that ...
