Favourite Star Wars Song.

Folks, this thread is not about the SCORES. It's about Star Wars SONGS... like with words.

Stuff like The Saga Begins by Weird Al or the disco stuff from the 70s. The EDM mix of Dual of the Fates. That sort of thing.

 

My favorite piece of Star Wars music is that of the 1977 film's medal scene and credits.

 

In that case only 2 come to mind, "Lapti Nek" and its "improved" version "Jedi Rocks", neither of which I really liked. OK, we might count the original ending song of ROTJ, which isn't really a song but does have a few lyrics at the very end. Wasn't it something like "celebrate the love" or similar? Still I don't really count that as a song in the real sense. But in fact I'm glad for that. The last thing I want SW to be is a musical. So I really could have done without those songs in ROTJ. None of them sound very original. I really prefer the instrumental music. Sorry John Williams, while your instrumental themes are amazing, songs with lyrics are not really your strength.

 

You beat me to it! Classic Bill Murray

 

the SW gangsta rap song is funny.

 

Princess Leia's song for "Life Day". Holiday Special:

 

aww Carrie. when you watch this it's kind of a miracle that ESB was as great as it was.

 

Lapti Nek from the Return of the Jedi 1983 before it was changed to Jedi Rocks in 1997.

 

Lapti Nek brings back good memories.

 

I don't think I've ever listened to the whole song by itself before. I'm suddenly imagining Alex Foley from Beverly Hills Cop in space.

 

we're not gonna fall for the banana in the tailpipe Jabba.

 

This is my definitive theme for Vader.

 

I think this is my favorite.

 

I love Copacabana. That was hilarious.

Star Wars and Disco

 

^ Every time I hear that, it's '77 again.

 

yes. I listened to disco SW on cassette by my pool.

 

I find this strangely hypnotic. Twenty five minutes of music from Jabba's Palace on a continuous loop.

 

This whole album is really good. My favourite tracks are Lando & The Lady Luck, Thrawn, and Outbound Flight.

 

I think they placed this on the sail barge. Nice.

 

Really love The Spark. One last mournful sunset before facing your end.
