If I told you Tron: Legacy was my most listened to score of the last two years...

In fact tracks like: Solar Sailer, Outlands, C.L.U, Disc Wars, Son of Flynn, Armory and Recognizer have broken into play count territory dominated by tracks that have been in my iTunes library for 8+ years. In less than two years.
I don't think there's been a more enjoyable and listenable score in quite some time. It fits every season, every situation. Be it driving to "Outlands" or enjoying a relaxing sunset with "Solar Sailer."

I remember listening to it twice back in the day and it just didn't click with me. But I guess I could try it again after so long a pause.

"We pop out and come into the world and music is there. We didn't invent it - it's all organised in the atmosphere by divinity or whatever. It's a miracle." - John Williams-
I think music is a stream of some kind. It could be blood. It could be water. It could be ether. Whatever it is it seems to be a living, organic force that’s in motion, that serves humanity and is part of humanity and part of what describes us as humans. We sing, play, dance, all the things that we do. And there is a vibrant and great literature we have been given. ... As musicians, we join the stream. We swim in the stream with all the other millions of music makers. It’s a life force, a strong one, surrounding us and we are part of it. -John Williams-

which has some glitzy remixes by the likes of Moby, Oakenfold and Sander Kleinenberg. Cues like SON OF FLYNN, C. P. U. or END OF LINE get a good electronic workout and come without the heavy RCP sound that plagued a portion of the soundtrack.

Virgin Money, eh? That would make a great movie title.It has one brilliant cue (which has been sourced pretty much none-stop by tv promos and commercials the past year) and a couple of really good ones. In all, a decent listen and a better than normal film score.

I'd say your more of an electronic/ "ambiance" music fan than a thematic symphonic music score fan.
Why?

I don't know if it's also my most listened to soundtrack of the last two years, but I know it's up there. It has replaced How to Train Your Dragon in what I listen to a lot, and I didn't think that would happen.

Don't worry, Jaws and E.T. are good driving music, too, for the most part.

No, it is good driving music. Any soundtrack that's chock full of quiet, reflective, emotional moments calms me and relaxes me to the point I'm seeing how close I can get to the jersey barriers without........oops, now I need a tow truck and the officer is writing me a ticket for falling asleep at the wheel.

I wouldn't use E.T. but I would use Jaws.

I use E.T. when it gets good, circa the Halloween sequence. The music beforehand, with the exception of the Lost on Earth track, is just sleepytime music.
