I love that he hasn't died. That he is still alive and still composing.
After all, I've been listening to his music for the last 46 years, from the moment I got my first soundtrack ever, the JAWS LP (that I still keep) in junior high. G bless him.
LOL, you are so f***ing pretentious it's unbelievable. Keep it coming!
Which would be the textbook response to concepts that are beyond you. I very much appreciate that you can use bigger words along side the f-bombs--I guess that's how we know you're a rebel. I especially enjoy how serious questions cause you to eventually revert to the schoolyard name-calling when they reveal that you actually have no intellectual position. You do it just about every time--and as long as you post passive-aggressive nonsense, I will call it out.
However... Kev, you are absolutely right. It's a JW thread and I won't keep making fun of the oblivious in it. Onward we go.
Further to Big Jim's point, earlier in the thread, about magnificent 'one-off' themes that Williams deploys in certain scores, the second half of this track (from the 3 minute mark onwards) is a case in point...
I haven't watched the film, all the way through, for years myself. I think I've caught various bits of it when channel surfing. But I think you're right, Day. That magnificent theme by Williams was replaced by the more obvious/awkward needle drop use of Nessun Dorma. The classical piece took me right out of the film. The Williams piece would have been more intrinsic to the scene and mood.

Though imagine putting the cd on and hearing it for the first time.
