1. You Are The Pan/The Face Of Pan (Hook)


One of my favorite cues of all time too, but I believe it was tracked from a Delerue theme. Or so I was told.

The Daily Wrap-up:

Adam.
Good choices - you seem to like the action cues!

King Solium
Did you just copy Adam. ?! Liking your SUPERMAN addition.

BTTFFan
Interesting and thoughtful choices. You seem to like majestic cues and/or longer cues that have a lot of variety! Smart choice.

King Solium
Back for more?! It might have been you that mentioned Delerue somewhere else - I do enjoy finding those connections and wonder if it's true.

gyorgyL
Great mix! "The Search For Robin" is an epic string cue, and a great showcase of Williams' stylistic tendencies. "The Battle In The Snow" is virtuoso battle music! "The Indianapolis Story" is haunting and it's an amazing showcase of how much Williams does with so little.

Peter Greenhill
You seem to like "summary" cues - you've chosen some good ones that represent those scores quite well. E.T.'s selection covers a lot of ground. Good choice!

Spinmeister
Seems you like Williams at his biggest and boldest but your honorable mentions hit that with some versatility. "Far From Home / E.T. Alone" is a GREAT showcase of how many different moods Williams can hit in a single cue.

DavidCoscina
Listing runner-ups by decade, I like your style and enthusiasm!!! You've got some nice, overlooked primary picks and I like the specificity. Seems like you appreciate "endings" and Williams' skill at ending cues. It's an under appreciated talent.

Reeve
SUPERMAN is a good choice and has A TON of good music. Maybe for you you can choose top 3 "films".

Grack21
Good selection. That is a unique cue that has wonderful Williams specificity. The rhythm, instrument choices, orchestration - nice one Admiral GRACKbar!

Paul MacLean
Very thoughtful (JAWS 2) and nice balance. Seems like you're favoring some nice variation but with a common thread of generally more gentle music.

Very nice picks everyone!!!

I gave this a good long think, and I just can't limit it to 3.

For donkey's years, my #1 was "The Asteroid Field", but I came to realize that JW obviously encompasses so much more than any one type of cue.

So I guess I'm out.

Honestly, if I had to list 10, they'd still probably all be from Star Wars. Kind of a fanboy.
