    "Lukes Theme" is my absolute favorite, but I voted for my second favorite "Dule Of Fates" I thought it deserved more votes.

    Battle of the Heroes for me. I listen to it while driving, it's quite inspiring!

    I also liked the ending music for Ep1, but I'm not sure if it could be considered a "theme."

    "The Throne Room" is not a theme itself, it's a track which mainly features the Force Theme.

    No, "The Throne Room" includes an original theme. Haven't I gone over this before? ;)

    Notice I said "mainly features". I'm pretty sure that the Force Theme is what most people associate with this track.

    Perhaps it's time for another lesson on tracks, cues, themes and songs. :)

    The music of the final duel in ROTJ--the Emperor's theme (which seems to have become the darkside theme.)

    But Battle of the Heroes is incredible too.

    I went with the Imperial March. It's just so strong and amazing, and so clearly evil. I also chose it as it has been such a central part of all the movies, and is so recognizable.

    I may have also gone with the Force theme if it wasn?t so overused. Instead, I chose Leia?s theme. I especially love the concert arrangement. It?s a beautiful piece and I never grow tired of hearing it.

    And I felt sorry for it, it needs more votes!

    My favortie has to be Assualt on the Death Star, I love how Truimphet it is and it makes me really want to be in a X Wing and flying with the rest of the rebels. DOTF, BOTH, and Acrros Stars are also great.

    Once again, and I'm trying to be as polite as possible, this is not a theme! This is a cue. A theme would be the other ones you mentioned.

    The one from the beginning of Ep1 till the end of Ep6. In fact, that's also the favourite part of the movie:)

    So your interest in Star Wars is a singularity. It's black hole-like.

    Whats the difference between a theme and cue? I see them all as songs...

    A theme is a melody or musical statement that is repeated throughout a score. It is usually associated with a particular character, place or concept.

    A cue is a particular section recorded for a score, usually associated with a scene.

    A track is a section of music as it appears on a soundtrack album.

    For example, the Force Theme is a theme associated with the Force, the Jedi and Obi-Wan in particular. It appears in the cue "Boys Into Battle" at the beginning of Revenge Of The Sith, and it can be heard (in an edited version) in the track "Star Wars And The Revenge Of The Sith" on the soundtrack cd. The Force Theme also appears in the cue "Binary Sunset" in A New Hope when Luke watches the twin suns set, and it can be heard in the track "The Princess Appears" on the original soundtrack album (and a track called "The Hologram/Binary Sunset" on the SE cd set).

    A song is a piece of music with a voice as the main instrument, singing lyrics. Most film score is not song, and some cues with vocals (like DotF) are debatable as true "songs". "Jedi Rocks" is a song.


    p.s. We have a Glossary in our Index sticky thread. :)
