Good Morning Stackers!

Welcome on into the ~Music corner of the saloon

A place to Talk Music. Share Tracks. Zap Sats.

So stay a while and listen.

The other 2002 animated film to have great music was "Spirit". Bryan Adams with Hans Zimmer did the entire soundtrack and the songs depict the mood of the film. Absolutely brilliant. As BA fan I didn't mind watching this film over and over again. It's also a beautifully animated film, one of the last hand drawn full frame films.

reply

BA is definitely Canada's greatest export. An absolute legend of the industry. Him with hanz Zimmer??? Count me in.

reply

That is such a good film! My kids loved it. One of my kids' friends said once "urgh that movie, there's hardly any talking in it!" He was like "you know nothing 😤🙄 the music IS the story!"
Totally recommend watching it, even if you don't have kids. The music is fantastic and so cleverly weaved into the story.

reply

2002 was a cracking year for animated films to have some great music in them, which were written especially for the film.
Here's John Rzeznik rocking it with "I'm Still Here" from Treasure Planet.

Is this turning into a Music/Movies territory fusion post now?

Today it seems so. The two can be very intertwined. Could you imagine lotr without Hanz Zimmer? Or star wars without John Williams?

I got to see star trek into darkness played with a live orchestra years back and it was an incredible experience.

reply

I think I totally missed this film somehow. But that song is cracking.

reply

It's a great film, very big in my household. I don't think they publicised it very well at the time. Fantastic animation and the voices of David Hyde Pierce (Niles Crane from Frasier) and Martin Short. I've seen it a few times 😂.

reply

Frasier's another thing that totally passed me by. Just completely missed it 🤣🤣 looks like I got catching up to do.

reply

Absolutely worth it. The inter play between Frasier and Niles is brilliant. The two of them are a great double act. The scripts are fantastic and the episodes can descend in to farce. These are more aligned to Fawlty Towers rather than say Friends. They don't play down to the audience.

reply

That may be where my misconception comes from. Friends became a blueprint for a lot of sitcoms and I just didn't find it that funny. It was more low level humour and I couldn't stay engaged with it. But due to its success so many other sitcoms followed that blueprint. I had assumed Frasier to be one of them. But if you're saying it's more like Fawlty Towers humour, that's something I can get behind. British humour like Fawlty Towers and Allo Allo are just unbeaten in the comedy sector. Perhaps I should give Frasier a fairer shot

reply

Yeah, I don't want to rubbish American sitcoms too much. UK has it's fair share. But shows like the Big Bang Theory is just pure tripe, lowest common denominator comedy, but very big. Give Frasier another go, well worth it.

reply

Don't get me wrong some UK comedy is straight trash. But I agree wholely about a race to the bottom cheapest, easiest laughs. Lowest common denominator for sure.
I'll add it to my to-do list... Along with now experiment various vocal lines for Coinkite Blues apparently 🤣🤣

🎵🎻🎤🪕👯🍀🎶 A bit of silly, jolly one for a Monday morning 😄

reply

🤣🤣 good fun. Nice shout.

reply

Sabaton this morning. Get you pumped up for the day!

reply

Good track, liked that one. Would have gone to see them back in the day.
Would be funny see to see them on the same bill as "Ghost", ironically both from Sweden, but at opposite ends of the religious spectrum.

reply

Got a lot of time for ghost. Really under rated band.

I saw sabaton supporting DragonForce in like 2008. But I want to see them again now I know more of their stuff. I do remember they came out and just delivered. Energy, great tracks even if I didn't know any. They were a blast.

reply

that's really catchy! 😄

reply

Yes, it's a real pumping song, felt like an entrance music to a popular wrestler

reply

It has got that feel to it.

I've seen it backing memes of old knights from the crusade marching upon Jerusalem and it fits the theme of a crusader or knights Templar so well.
