Josh500 1,620 Posted January 24, 2013 Author Posted January 24, 2013 Great list, Erik!I am gonna relisten to "Visitor" tonight ... it's been a while, and I forgot how good that track was.

Some of these pieces I haven't listen to in years.
Josh500 1,620 Posted January 24, 2013 Author Posted January 24, 2013 The Adventures of Mutt - 103Really? The Jungle Chase - 82Irina's Theme - 55I am gonna relisten to these too!
Bellosh 4,531 Posted January 24, 2013 Posted January 24, 2013 Number one for me is "The Blimp Turns Around"
Rachael Foley 10,162 Posted January 24, 2013 Posted January 24, 2013 Number one for me is "The Blimp Turns Around"Great Track!I love the grail theme at the beginning.
Bellosh 4,531 Posted January 24, 2013 Posted January 24, 2013 The Joneses in peril feel, i was just addicted to it for a while.
Xander Harris 9,675 Posted January 24, 2013 Posted January 24, 2013 My top tracks on iTunes are not exactly accurate because I've reset plays and listen to scores on my iPod. That being said, my top 10 ended up being:The Adventures of Tintin11m4 The Sword FightOpen/Close (30-second)PlowingDramatic TeaseEnd Title (Amazing Stories/Joel McNeely)Open/Close (20-second)Open/Close (15-second)NBC News Theme (a.k.a. The Mission) Opener/closerNBC News Theme (a.k.a. The Mission) Opener/closerThis is fairly accurate to recent listening, but Tintin did catch me by surprise.
Bellosh 4,531 Posted January 24, 2013 Posted January 24, 2013 ^^ that's a JW fan for sure. Dude, I showed my ipod to my friends once, and they check out my top 25 playlist and were just like WTF are these songs?
wanner251 18 Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 Since I reset my play countsChristmas at Hogwarts - HP1Buckbeak's Flight - HP3Navy Planes - CE3KGilderoy Lockhart - HP2The Knight Bus - HP3A Window to the Past - HP3Fawkes the Phoenix - HP2Moaning Myrtle - HP2Dobby the House Elf - HP2Aunt Marge's Waltz - HP3Yes... I know there's a lot of Harry Potter.... I'm kind of preparing for something. Funny how Navy Planes ended up in there somehow...
JoeinAR 1,957 Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 I wouldn't know where on to look on my nano but the Towering Inferno is the most listened to JW score without question.my most listened to JW tracksChasing Rockets.Planting the ChargesLiberation: Exsultate Justi
Ollie 1,375 Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 I don't really use itunes that much at home so there wasn't much for me to list, most of my "most played" were John Barry, Jerry Goldsmith, Miklos Rozsa and Michael Giacchino.Most of my Williams stuff was 8 times or less. Joe Brausam 1
Koray Savas 2,260 Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 Not accurate considering I do most of my listening in the car these days, for other music at least. Film scores are all on my computer, and you all know 6-8 times is a lot for me for any score.iTunes puts up most of the Arctic Monkey's Humbug at the top. I know my most listened to album is Streetlight Manifesto's Everything Goes Numb, by far. 200+ times easily.
Wojo 2,458 Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 Bummer. I don't have any accurate play counts on my iPod.
Erik Woods 841 Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 I wouldn't know where on to look on my nano but the Towering Inferno is the most listened to JW score without question.Plug your Nano into your computer, open iTunes, sync and then look at the play counts in iTunes. -Erik-
JoeinAR 1,957 Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 Thanks Eric but since I've only had it since Christmas those 4 and 5 times listened to arn't wow numbers.
Kendal_Ozzel 36 Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 Lots of variables on my library means play counts aren't always what they should be. But my most played is actually the theme from Meet the Press. After that, it's mostly cues from ROTS and KOTCS. One notable exception is "If We Were In Love" from the Aisle Seat album.
ST-321 42 Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 A Window to the Past - Harry Potter And The Prisoner Of AzkabanBad Dates - RaidersThe Asteroid Field - Empire Strikes BackForward to Time Past - Harry Potter And The Prisoner Of AzkabanMy Friend, The Brachiosaurus - Jurassic Park
p0llux 435 Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 E.T. Flying theme should be #1, I have two of them. One with 97 and the other with 87 plays, so 184 plays total.
Jilal 681 Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 11m4 The Sword FightWhich score is that from?
Rachael Foley 10,162 Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 11m4 The Sword FightWhich score is that from?Hook, I think.
Smeltington 2,009 Posted January 25, 2013 Posted January 25, 2013 Most of my play counts have been reset at one point or another, leaving my top ten JW tracks less varied than they should be:Hedwig's Theme - HP1Platform 9 3/4 - HP1Arrival at Hogwarts - HP1Double Trouble - HP3Leaving Hogwarts - HP1The Banquet - HP1Russians Reappear - Crystal SkullIrina Spalko - Crystal SkullThe Adventures of Mutt - Crystal SkullHedwig Tries a Cookie - HP1I also tried pulling the same list, but including only one track per score:Hedwig's Theme - HP1Double Trouble - HP3Russians Reappear - Crystal SkullPrologue - HookThe Adventure Continues - TintinEnd Credits Part II - Jurassic ParkAir and Simple GiftsFawkes the Phoenix - HP2The Lost World - The Lost WorldBrush on Silk - Memoirs of a GeishaLooks a little better. All six Star Wars scores, all three Harry Potters, and Indy 1-4 are probably my most listened-to scores in reality.
Josh500 1,620 Posted January 25, 2013 Author Posted January 25, 2013 Number one for me is "The Blimp Turns Around"One of my all-time favorites! A hidden gem, really.^^ that's a JW fan for sure. Dude, I showed my ipod to my friends once, and they check out my top 25 playlist and were just like WTF are these songs? Know exactly what you mean.I wouldn't know where on to look on my nano but the Towering Inferno is the most listened to JW score without question.Really?Damn! That's one score I still don't have...My Friend, The Brachiosaurus - Jurassic ParkThis is just an awesome (and also underrated) track, I dunno why we so rarely talk about it. The version found on the WIlliams on Williams album is just as great, although I still prefer the original.Sweet, sentimental, warm-hearted, soothing, and also slightly funny toward the end. In its tone and atmosphere, slightly reminiscent of "The Arrival Of Tink" from Hook, IMO.

Being new here, I just assumed that it had already been talked about to the point of exhaustion, being such a great track. I guess that's not necessarily the case. Perhaps a new thread is in order...
Rachael Foley 10,162 Posted January 26, 2013 Posted January 26, 2013 my friend the brachiosaurus reminds me of War Horse ( or the otherway round )
Josh500 1,620 Posted January 26, 2013 Author Posted January 26, 2013 Word... absolutely one of his best! Being new here, I just assumed that it had already been talked about to the point of exhaustion, being such a great track. I guess that's not necessarily the case. Perhaps a new thread is in order...Yes. But then, of course, the entire album is fantastic."High-Wire Stunts" and "Incident at Isla Nublar" are equally spectacular masterpieces, IMO, some of the most tense and suspenseful writing JW has ever done! But we hardly ever talk about them, either, for some reason.
JoeinAR 1,957 Posted February 13, 2013 Posted February 13, 2013 I noticed last night that on the nano it tells you the top 25 tracks. 1&2 are Hands of Fate, #3 was the City Sleeps, the next John Williams track was Planting the Charges, then Trapped Loves, and Susan and Doug.Swing Swing Swing is high as are Main title from Jaws, Princess Leia, and Ben's Death
