    **First Post**


    I have always associated certain songs/music with specific moments in my life.

    I want to create a soundtrack that reflects the feelings and mood of Revenge of the Sith (dark and sad).

    Here's what I have so far:

    Getting Away with Murder - Papa Roach
    Boulevard Of Broken Dreams - Green Day
    Nothing to Lose - Billy Talent
    My Happy Ending - Avril Lavigne
    We're All to Blame - Sum 41
    When I'm Gone - 3 Doors Down
    Numb - Linkin Park
    Meant To Live - Switchfoot

    Plus I would add some audio quotes from the movies as segues (Yoda, Mace, Emperor and Darth Vader).

    If anyone has any other song suggestions I would love to hear them!

    ..Oh Elmo... :)



    I was thinking of also adding Duel of the Fates and The Empire's March to the mix. I know...weird mix but hey why not!

    Or how about...

    For Anakin

    "Hurt" by Nine Inch Nails:

    What have I become?
    My sweetest friend
    Everyone I know
    Goes away in the end
    You could have it all
    My empire of dirt
    I will let you down
    I will make you hurt
    If I could start again
    A million miles away
    I would keep myself
    I would find a way.

    AND

    "Burden In My Hand" by Soundgarden:

    Close your eyes and bow your head
    I need a litle sympathy
    Cause fear is strong and love's for everyone
    Who isn't me
    So kill your health and kill yourself
    And kill everything you love
    And if you live you can fall to pieces
    And suffer with my ghost
    Just a burden in my hand
    Just an anchor on my heart
    Just a tumor in my head
    And I'm in the dark.

    And for "THE Duel"...

    "Break Stuff" by Limp Bizkit (all that anger would go well with the fight) OR...

    "One Step Closer" by Linkin Park:

    Everything you say to me
    Takes me one step closer to the edge
    And I'm about to break
    I need a little room to breathe
    Cause I'm one step closer to the edge
    And I'm about to break.


    Just passing time away from the Episode III spoiler threads...must get back...crazy theories beckoning me... [face_hypnotized]

    If you want actual good music that expresses sentiments similar to those of some of the songs you listed, may I suggest "Indifference" by Pearl Jam? Also, on a semi-related note, I've thought for a while that some of the lyrics from their song "Do the Evolution," could be used as a theme for Jango Fett: "Admire me/admire my home/admire my son/he's my clone" and "Admire me/admire my home/admire my son/admire my clones." (Hi, strilo. ;))

    Since the only way to score a SW movie is with classical music and it is very thematic, I will use existing tracks.

    1. STAR WARS Main Title and the Ambush on Coruscant
    (I know it will open with a battle, but as a placeholder for a subtheme to be used as previous soundtracks have done I will use this one for its moody theme).

    2. Zam the Assasin and the Chase Through Coruscant
    (it is again what I expect in terms of tone and length, maybe not exactly style for the big opening battle)

    3. Return to Tatooine

    4. Bounty Hunter's Pursuit

    5. The Tusken Camp and the Homestead

    6. Anakin and Padme

    7. The Trip to the Naboo Temple and the Audience with Boss Nass

    8. Departing Coruscant

    9. Passage Throught the Planet Core

    10. Jango's Escape

    11. Duel of the Fates

    12. Qui-Gon's Noble End

    13. Love PLedge and the Arena

    14. The Sith Spacecraft and The Droid Battle

    15. Confrontation with Count Dooku and Finale

    These tracks represent the thematic progression I feel the movie will musically flow from.

    Someone just suggested over in 3SA that Carrie Fisher's song from "Star Wars: The Holiday Special" be used during the duel. I wholeheartedly agree. I really think it could rival "The Dark Side Beckons" as the emotional highpoint of the saga. We should start a petition.

    :p

    Well, if it's leaning towards rock then i think that definitely the song "Poison" should be added.

    eg Palps is poison running through Anakin's veins. The darkside is poison running through the Sith's veins, ect, ect,
