  1. Definitely does! One of my top 50 scores even. I've tried multiple times to get into CLEOPATRA, but I can't.
  2. I hated Pearl Jam, Nirvana, Soundgarden, Alice in Chains, you name it, with a passion in the 90s. Grunge was the Antichrist of music when I was a teen, and I still can't appreciate it, all these years later. But I like some things that the respective members have done since. Like Eddie Vedder's "Man of the Hour", as featured on the BIG FISH soundtrack. I'm far more inclusive these days, as far as musical taste is concerned, so maybe I'll give it another shot.
  3. But it's something to think about. We don't get old in my family. My maternal grandmother was an exception. She passed away in 2022, 93 years old. But by then she was institutionalized and suffered from dementia. And now Williams is planning another Euro trip at that exact age, maybe combined with other places and dates. I find it hard to wrap my head around.
  4. Sightseeing is pretty stressful too, when you're 92 (93 then). But yeah, crossing fingers that it will be part of a "Euro tour". I've always dreamt of him coming to Oslo. The Oslo Philharmonic is quite world reknowned, last time I checked, so that should be an attraction.
  5. If you're a sucker for mournful Americana (which I am), then this 2009 score is for you. Beautiful, slow and poetic. Not quite on the level of Talmi's SAVANNAH, but a solid second place.
  6. Yes, it was a great concert regardless. But obviously coloured by the situation.
  7. Yes, damn that illness in 2018! Soooooo close. I would have preferred another go at London rather than Berlin again, but having him come back to Europe was way, way beyond what I expected anyway.
  8. Whoa, I thought Berlin and Europe was over and done with (and Williams' statements about wanting to return just "polite speak"). I'll definitely go if my money situation turns around by 2025, or whenever the tickets are put up.
  9. Yeah, it's a little "too much" for my taste. Might prefer Coppola's version, actually (if we discount the original Honegger for a minute).
  10. Yes. It's in the entry exam.
  11. No, you need to get the OST. The score is static and beautiful, like a trance. But one hour suffices.
  12. That's impressive. With the exception of the CREATOR comment, I found myself disagreeing with basically everything you said here, LOL!
  13. Sorry for the tiny cover, it's all I could find. This remains my favourite of Carl Davis' silent film scores, I think (out of the 20 or so I've heard, he did a LOT!). Accessible, delicious darkness, a little bit religioso.
