This set will go down in history as perhaps the one with the absolute highest level of attention to detail - there's nothing wrong to be found! Absolutely nothing! Even this is fixed!

You're right, I'd rather have heard the Weasley twins singing it to the tempo of a funeral march in the beginning of every year.

Damn Newell cutting it out of 4!

We ever and Guiding can't be right, and it's always and ever not always forever. We herald and praise thee? There's an L in that Guiding.

Hogwarts Forever we.......... ........... us onward to......... Draco Dormiens Nunquam Titillandus Always and ever we stand together Hogarts Forever ....................

Of course! Never tickle a sleeping dragon! That's what I struggled with.

It's an interesting little bit nonetheless! Can anyone transcribe the lyrics?

yes https://picosong.com/wjnDi/ Here's the vocal version, complete with forum blip when a crackpot with a cat gif avatar replied to the thread - at least we have the clean version to look forward to! It's too British for me to make out half the lyrics.

Hogwarts Forever vocals! I'm recording this.

https://tunein.com/radio/RT-Lyric-FM-984-s24914/ You can listen here, they only played PS' Platform 9 3/4 so far.

But what if we count the rope charmer source? What's that instrument called again?

Well then link a video of a performance of that suite so I can see i that's the Three Note Loop cue I'm thinking of! To reiterate so it won't get lost: what did that big buildup originally score? Was there a deleted flashback or vision? It's cut down in the film significantly, and it's practically a concert arrangement in full.

Could it be stuck to the end of Discussing Black? Judging by the title, that should be the Three Note Loop "concert piece", which has a session slate between Blue Forest and Hagrid Plays the Flute or Running to McGonnagall - here, it's D2/9 - The Stone (3:41). In the film, about a minute o it is used where Harry figures out Snape wants to give the Stone to Voldemort in the Common Room, I have no clue if it originally underscored some bigger vision scene.

I forgot about the additional booklet! It even says it has generic music and tracklist info. I'm a stupid, I take the previous comment back. Last year's E.T., as I said, has track-by-track comments, but it doesn't go deeper into some alternates than "different phrasing and orchestration".

Since we apparently really don't have anything to complain about but I have to live up to my title somehow... 24 and 24 pages probably aren't enough to contain tracklist breakdowns explaining what's what like in the good old days or with the E.T. set when they also have all kinds of quotes and production history, and speculation is already going on a day after the announcement. Feel free to correct me, @Jay!

I meant online stores like Music Box, Soundtrackcorner, maybe our local Facethemusic. Where the shipping is guaranteed to start from inside the EU.

Yes, which means I'd only get it in January anyway, might as well wait for the EU stores to get it and be safe

I never ordered anything from outside the continent and I've heard too many horror stories about the handling taking 6 weeks, packages not being closed back up properly and such in addition to the fees. I don't trust our customs people and this is too big, important and expensive a release to start taking chances with it.

Anyone with a "safe" EU address where LLL packages usually arrive quickly and without additional fees willing to get 2 of these and mail one to me? I'll pay up!

What Dracula riches! Within a few months, Williams' '79, Kilar's '92, Bernard's '58 (planned for this Halloween but coming next year rerecorded from Tadlow) - two of those I'm ecsatic about and I'll have to see the samples for the '92 one - from the film, I mostly just remember the motif that was stolen for the Blood Ritual in Curse of the Black Pearl.

I have deleted my Potter edits from every device, no getting them back. Complete Potter abstinence until January except for overplaying the samples, of course.

It'll be this busy until everyone gets bored of this set, and then I'll receive it, too!

The HP subreddit has had a post about this for 12 hours, it has 10 upvotes and no comments. I think we're safe from them until someone posts a picture of the actual physical set.

That's possible, I hope they'll bring it down to reasonable then.

Hang on, MusicBox has it for 125€+ 17€ shipping, are they mental? Do they not know $=/=€?
