Yoda Longbottom 0 Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 Ever since 1998, the first thing I listen to in the first minutes of the New Year is always something by John Williams. I believe this gives him some kind of strength and verve. Do you find it any weird? Possibly maybe. :oops: Roman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John McClane 1 Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 I always though superstitious people would tough metal/iron/steel or stuff like that.I'm not superstitious at all (I think it's just dumb to avoid black cats when they cross the street or crap like that) but I do the same about the music. It's a kind of tradition, a nice ritual. Not in the first minute, but I like to say "that was the first thing I heard this year".I always do the same for the "last thing I heard this year" too, though.

BLUMENKOHL 1,068 Posted December 30, 2005 Share Posted December 30, 2005 Star Trek The Motion Picture Main Titles...It started Star Trek...good enough to start a new year. What better way to start off the new year with the bu-bu-bu-BUM at the end (the original is still the best sounding bu-bu-bu-bum out of all the main title recordings)?

Pieter Boelen 740 Posted December 31, 2005 Share Posted December 31, 2005 Thanks to my father, the first music I heard in 2006 was from someone called Katie Melua. I requested he turn his music off, so I could listen to John Williams first, but unfortunately, he wouldn't. Thankfully, the second thing I heard this year was the Raiders March! Of course in the hope of Indiana Jones 4 being done this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Breathmask 555 Posted January 1, 2006 Share Posted January 1, 2006 First thing I heard this year (apart from the unfortunately picked up snippet of Lady Marmelade on TV) was Main Title/Rebel Blockade Runner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possibly maybe. :oops: RomanThat's not superstition; it's tradition.I've been doing the same kind of thing for years: I play Goldsmith & Williams scores to start & end the year-- plus other composers (mostly Broughton, Poledouris, Elfman, ...), but I start with several scores from these two.
