Holko 9,532 Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 Close Encounters that low? While SPR that high? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's all about the Hymn To The Fallen. 5 minutes ago, The Illustrious Jerry said: War of the Worlds above CE3K, Jaws and Superman? It's all about Tom Cruise? Keep in mind, this is a list open to all classical pieces, if I understand right. In that context, Williams's showing is quite impressive, and SL is not all that surprising. Just the kind of stuff Classic FM listeners dig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex 2,835 Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 They always play the same stuff on Classic FM. I heard Hymn to the Fallen twice in one day, once on my way to work and once on my way home! bollemanneke 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard Hymn to the Fallen twice in one day, once on my way to work and once on my way home! Maybe the second one was Hymn to the Fallen Reprise? A genius stroke of Classic FM to bookend your work day like the album? Jay, Jurassic Shark and bollemanneke 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Parker 3,040 Posted April 23, 2019 Share Posted April 23, 2019 Sounds like the hit tune from a Hamilton-style reimagining starring Michael B Jordan as the Tom Hanks character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bollemanneke 3,352 Posted April 24, 2019 Author Share Posted April 24, 2019 Didn't know that one. Classic FM is still cooler than our national classical radio station. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
