Hi,

Please take your bull$hit somewhere else!

I explained myself in the first paragraph, and I am a FILM REVIEWER with several reviews having been used in a lot of Film Festivals, and I do not need your comments to make my poop smell better, or make me feel better about what I do, for the love of the music!

Music in films, for the most part is not about songs, or what this poll calls for, which is stupid and not important in the life and living of film and its INCREDIBLE HISTORY of music ... for us to relegate it to just a stupid song mentality.

I will NOT DIS-RESPECT FILM and its many ARTISTS on the basis of some silly board and their fun polls ... it's not worth the effort!

I do not see films because of a song ... PERIOD! Go ahead and erase my post if you want to ... but the depth and importance of this poll will die off quickly!
Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told!

[QUOTE=Logan]^Yes, and well,I have had some experiences which I might have mentioned before. I was convinced that there was an after life on more one occasion.

I love this Douglas Adams line: "It's not so much an Afterlife, more a sort of Aprés Vie." [QUOTE=Logan]

I just saw this, never heard that one before, but obviously I enjoy that sort of saying.  Smile  Thank you!

  I have to mention, before listening, that another Mel Gibson 2006 film, "Apocalypto," has a fantastic soundtrack.  The film had very mixed reviews, but I remember loving the music throughout.  I gave it a quick listen again and couldn't decide what I enjoyed best to use here, so went with more familiar pieces to me.  James Horner composed the music, a very non-traditional score with exotic instruments and a Pakistani vocalist amongst other things.

Alternative no. 3

Ennio Morricone - Gabriel's oboe - Film The Mission, direceted by Roland Joffè



4) Out of competition: 

A Filetta - U Lamentu di Gesù - Music inspired by the Film Passion, directed by Mel Gibson.



This one is out of competition because it is not included in the official soundtrack of the film.

The Corse group "A Filetta" is one of my fave groups, in absolute terms.

I won't post other songs. These four songs are my contribution to the poll. 

I think that the third, Gabriel's oboe, by Morricone, is known to many of you, but I hope the last three are a new pleasure for your ears. 

Anyway, except for many indications to the contrary, my candidate song will be the first one I posted, by the Polish Zbigniew Preisner.


Amos Goldberg (professor of Genocide Studies at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem): Yes, it's genocide. It's so difficult and painful to admit it, but we can no longer avoid this conclusion.

Pretty sure now that this one will be my nomination (which makes the others alternatives). Wim Mertens has written some wonderful music! This is from the Peter Greenaway film "The Belly of an Architect".



I was thinking of nominating "The Piano" by Michael Nyman. It's great but it's super sentimental and not quite as original as Mertens. So it'll have to wait for another opportunity.

hah...  oh women love that in me.  That duality..  my first date with my ex was a biker bar in Stilwater..  some dude just out of prison wanted some action. .and he got some .. just not with her.  Impressed with my badassery and how I threw a guy probably twice my sisze out the door after breaking his nose.. she took me home..

fast forward to the next morning...  we were enjoying a bowl of Cheerios at her table when I saw something out of the corner of my eye..  a spider dropping down from the fixture.. and I screamed like a little girl

she told later that was the moment she knew she was going to marry me...

I was an avid "reader" here, not sure of the exact dates, but it might be even from 2004 forwards. It can be 2006, furthest. In the past this place was "WILD", now tamer, yet still a cool place to hang out in. Beer (Imagine it as a cup of coffee)

hahah.. too damn funny.. well congrats on 666. I actually remember when I hit 666.. way back when...and was still fairly new here (at least under my Micky username) but had already made a name for myself for chaos mayhem and bloodlettting. But none other than Peter Rideout (a very classic past PA'r who like the best of us.. was a few cans short of a 6 pack) singled me out and noted how I had the devil in me big time..

if he only knew...

and tried to get help for me and tried to organize a forum exorcism. Nope. Though a hell of a lot of fun...this site was a f**king riot.. as well as  freakshow back then... but it didn't work. Evil Smile

thankfully Greg did make it easier... and kept out non original pieces.. for it he had...

if Cross of Iron was among the greatest movie intros ever.. this one was perhaps THE best.. 

and that music.. my God.. 

as a bonus..



and one can not mention the classics without mentioning this one.. 

Somewhere in Time. Who didn't want to be Christopher Reeve back in the day. And this was such a wonderful movie. featuring perhaps the most beautiful music that humankind has ever created...

  Vids deleted for space:  Definitely know these soundtracks forwards and probably backwards.  Son and I saw the films first run in theatres, then the extended versions, many many many too many to count times.  These are always in my top 10 of favourite films ever (even with the parts that don't follow the books), although I lump them as one film if doing a list and I love the soundtracks.  Books too, read and re-read numerous times.

FOR CRISTI:
Well Cristi, it's clear that Goblin are not famous as Vangelis.

But this is not a poll where getting more votes and winning counts, and if we were here to vote Vangelis' Chariots of Fire and Goblin's Profondo Rosso, this poll would no longer make sense, it would have turned into a usually poll on the most famous groups or songs. 

FOR LOGAN
Logan i had previously tried to open an interactive thread: "Listen to a new song and post a new song". In that thread the first member would post a song, the second member would listen to it, rate it and post another, then a third would come in turn listen to it, rate it and post a third, and so on. Even in that case, I asked those who wanted to post songs to choose the not famous ones, and I left the field free between prog and non-prog songs. It went on for a while, then ran aground, and so I thought about this interactive poll because I think everyone knows some little-known non-prog songs that he's very fond of. And in a way, the theme that we give ourselves in some way condition us. For example, I have not yet managed to post a group that I love, one of my absolute favorites: it's called "A Filetta", it is a group of the French island of Corsica, in the Mediterranean Sea, a polyphonic vocal group, which in my opinion is exceptional and who sings in "Corse language", which is not a French language, it is indeed an Italian dialect similar to the Italian language that was spoken in the Renaissance. I hope to soon have the opportunity to post one of their songs. 

As for the limit of 50 reviews in the interactive prog poll, I confess that I would have had a hard time finding a catchy song, I should have thought about it a lot... unless I had chosen from those of the Italian artists. It seems to me that the 50 reviews combined with the theme greatly restrict the choice, but I saw that the participation was vast and therefore it is fine, nothing to complain.

Amos Goldberg (professor of Genocide Studies at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem): Yes, it's genocide. It's so difficult and painful to admit it, but we can no longer avoid this conclusion.
