Author	Topic: Does anybody else love the ROTJ end theme in place of the Ewok Song?!

	Agree with what Pinback and Cinde said. I actually like the way the song starts with the ewoks, but then becomes a general chorus before climaxing into the end credits. It's an effective ending for ROTJ as a chapter (using the ewoks) but then encompasses the whole saga with the general chorus. Sorry if this is a bit vague - I'm not sure how to really describe it in words. The new one just doesn't gel with the end credits and sounds pretty 'anticlimactic' for me.

	Yeah, I agree that the new song doesn't flow well into the credits music. That is one of the only complaints I have about the new piece. I love how you can hear the native creatures of Endor in the background. I'm not sure if you can hear it in the film, but you can in the soundtrack. It makes me feel very peaceful and at ease, and more in tune with nature. -----signature----- <--- leangreenfightinmachine

	I liked it.

	The celebration song ties up all the emotional loose ends perfectly. Everytime I hear it coupled with what I'm seeing on screen, I cry. -----signature----- After all of this star wars stuff is over lets beam up to Quarks Bar and have a couple of drinks then visit one of his holosuites.

	I think the SE music is too melancholy. Yub Yub was cheerful, at least, as befits the final victory of the heroes and the Alliance. -----signature----- Beer is the answer.....but I can't remember the question

	I actually prefer the Yub Yub song, but mostly for sentimental reasons. -----signature----- "What's that star?" "It's the Death Star." "What does it do?" "It does Death!"

	I think that they should have thought about initially starting out with "Yub Nub" (not Yub Yub, I have the sheet music) and then bridging it into the new, more epic music to reflect the galactic scope. Consider it the onion effect - local celebration reflects the galactic one. JMHO

	I think it goes into the end credits just fine. The sudden crash of the Star Wars theme is prevelant(sp?) in all the movies..none of the end themes before the credits really segues into the SW theme..except the ANH celebration...but that one has a less brassy start to the credits..has anyone else noticed that? -----signature----- Always ready to provide an "Unexpected Pleasure" Official Oldbie According to the JCC Sorting E-Hat Co-Chosen One of the Cult of the Blue Numbers After Thread Titles Leader of the Knights of the Blue 1000

	Awwwww,man! You know, it makes me mist up every time i hear it...I guess that's the idea, and it works so well! I think it strikes the right balance between hope, camraderie, quiet pride and diffuse joy. It has a wonderful 'ending' feeling about it that i think is just right. Still, I loke the ewok theme too!

	This theme is so much better than the old ewok song, not to mention in ROTJ:SE, we get to see the galaxy in celebration, while in the original version, we just saw the ewoks celebrating -----signature----- September 11th, 2001 -Never forget Viva La Ciudad de Los Angeles!
