#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 Almost all of the actual score send most people here to sleep, but if one takes the time to actually listen to Williams' theme for Always, one does have to admire it.The best rendition is in the CD's best track, Dorinda's Solo Flight, the theme is both sad and uplifting, melancholy but not overly sentimental.I wish it was attached to a more interesting score.

Morlock 11 Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 I am totally unfamiliar with it, I've listened to Always almost twice, and it made no impact on me. I'll be sure to check this one out when I get home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morlock 11 Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 Close enough. I trust you'll be available for any coups I may be planning, like all the others who have seen the light and have come to embrace my teachings. Someday -and that day may never come- I'll call upon you to do a service for me. But until that day, accept this justice as gift on my daughter's wedding day.

Joni Wiljami 1,206 Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 Then we have to change the direction. For me this theme sounds heavenly.Always has. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quintus 5,399 Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 I remember giving the theme a few tries on the Spielberg collaboration disc. Far too saccharine for my tastes. Or just plain boring.The same goes for the film, which may be the problem as far as the music is concerned. Actually no, the music is just meh whichever way I look at it.

Marian Schedenig 8,193 Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 I've hardly ever played the CD, but the music on the Spielberg/Williams Collaboration and also Dorinda Solo Flight are wonderful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted June 25, 2007 Author Share Posted June 25, 2007 The first 2 Williams tracks from that CD and the last and that suite from the Spielberg/Williams Collaboration are really all I need from that score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ins 42 Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 Imo the best rendition of the theme can be found in "Saying Goodbye" at ~ 2:00mins.Not to forget to mention "Follow Me" one of Williams funny cues like "The Promenade" in Jaws.One of Williams underrated work.

Maglorfin 196 Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 Speaking of JW's underrated work(s), how about Rosewood or Angela's Ashes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morlock 11 Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 I wouldn't call Angela's Ashes underrated, though Rosewood seems to have far too few fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maglorfin 196 Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 [...] though Rosewood seems to have far too few fans.Right you are. Look Down, Lord (Reprise and Finale) is magnificent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morlock 11 Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 Yeah, but that's only a tiny bit of it. I love the dirty, earthy feel of the score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marian Schedenig 8,193 Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 Rosewood is outstanding, one of Williams' best works from the late 90s. That guitar stuff is awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elmo Lewis 6 Posted July 3, 2007 Share Posted July 3, 2007 Speaking of JW's underrated work(s), how about Rosewood or Angela's Ashes? In this board, every less known or discussed work is considered underrated.Ironically, on the other hand, we can't stop bitching about Attack of the Clones.

Hlao-roo 389 Posted July 5, 2007 Share Posted July 5, 2007 Always: better than Ambien.That said, "Follow Me" is a delightful precursor to "Isabel's Horse and Buggy" in Stepmom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
