Which tracks do you guys suggest I pay particular attention too. IMO, he's not quite John Williams class - but then, who is? Still, his music is very good. I particuarly like the love theme motif used throughout World's End - heard during "At Wit's End", at the start of "I See Dead People in Boats", towards the end of "I Don't Think Now is the Best Time" and in all its epic glory to round off "Drink Up Me Hearties". "Up and Down" is pure, mad-grin-worthy fun music, and "Parley" is a surprising but welcome ode to Ennio Morricone. All recommended, though I tend to skip "Singapore", the forgettable "Brethren Court" and "Calypso". -----signature----- "A true Knight, Qui-Gon is.

	I've really fallen in love with this soundtrack lately. It's definitely not as good as COTBP's soundtrack, but it's a huge improvement from DMC. My favorite tracks are Singapore, Up is Down, Calypso, One Day, and Drink Up Me Hearties. -----signature----- "Baron Of Not Catching On" of the JCC Shiny Council http://www.getphpbb.com/phpbb/index.php?mforum=shinycouncil Sir Cellulitis of Lardipuss of the Knights of the Round Espy I believe in mermaids

	andy1044 posted: At this point the Academy is such a mess of politics that its almost worth ignoring all together. Case in point(s): Babel and Brokeback Mountain win over much more deserving scores. I agree. The Academy wouldn't know a good score if it slapped them in the face. It's why I tend to look at sites like Soundtrack.net and filmtracks.com. As for Pirates 3, I thought this was a major improvement from the 2nd movie's score. The love theme was a good addition. Pirates 3 is probably the best released score since Transformers and Spiderman 3 aren't released (yet?) out there this summer (though Ratatouille's deserves a nod in that category). It's a pretty weak year for scores though especially with record labels not even releasing the decent ones. Really a big letdown after last year brought X3, Superman Returns, The Da Vinci Code, Casino Royale. Hopefully 08 will be better with Indy 4 coming out.
