    What would be a well-known movie soundtrack theme song you dudes (and dudettes) would recommend to listen to?

    I have Total Recall, Indiana Jones, Jurassic Park, E.T., etc.

    I am looking for well-known and non-singing themes. I am thinking about
    RoboCop, most of the Arnold the GoverNator movies: Total Recall, Terminator and T2, etc.

    What do you all recommend? :confused:

    ^ JAWS, "Duel Of The Fates" from E1:phantom Menace... thank you... I agree... :eek: although, Back to the Future and Forrest Gump are Alan Silvestri...

    I have yet to see "Blade Runner" in its entirety (please don't kill me, Mr. Deckard, sir :( .) ... photo reply in 5... 4... 3...

    You should definitely make that happen. I suggest the Final Cut.

    The "Singles" soundtrack is the greatest one known to man.

    Same for Requiem for a Dream. The theme and variations of the theme are used all the time.

    Yeah, I just reread my post and it would imply that all are John Williams. I should have been more clear.

    I really like Rachel Portman (Chocolat, Cider House Rules, Nicholas Nickleby, Emma, etc.). She writes beautiful, catch pieces that usually capture a few different themes from the films.

    I have it on background around the house a lot of the time, and I listen to it almost exclusively when I write.

    On a completely different vein, I also like David Bergeaud who wrote the music for the Ratchet and Clank games. I found the music online and enjoy listening to it when I was fast paced music without vocals.

    ^ Nice one. It's called "Top Gun Anthem", I think?

    :eek: Found the Conan theme song with the snake-guy James Earl Jones and the T-1000 song from T2 on YouTube, and will extract them... :)

    I also found the Platoon and Indiana Jones' themes. I get chills.

    Ah, shoot. I found another one... whenever I hear the Braveheart theme song by Enya, I effin' get teary-eyed. :(
