Free Music Notes for Pearl Harbor
Free Music Review: If God were a composer
Hit: 5 Stars
It's been years since the release of the film, and I still hesitate to leave home without tracks from this CD. Whenever I get a new Mp3 player, some of these songs are the first to be transferred. This may seem a bit extreme, but just give it a try, and I think you'll find the pieces on this soundtrack to be so beautiful that they deserve a perminant place in your life. (For those instramental music fans, you'll understand what I'm saying - these are the kind of songs that apply to you always, no matter where you are and what you're going through, and they touch you all the more deeply because of it.) They are simply beautiuful and emotional, and that's that.
While all have a great stillness about them, tracks 2-5 begin the CD with a mellower sound; the mood picks up at track 6, and continues through 9, in such a way that you feel you have been on a journey, as cliche as that sounds. But this is certainly why Hans Zimmer is my favorite composer. He's brilliant!
But please don't get me wrong -- all of what I'm saying has nothing to do with "Pearl Harbor" the movie. In fact, you'd be better off to wipe the entire movie out of your mind while listening. Don't let the fact that there are only 9 tracks turn you off, because I hope you can tell by now that it's worth its weight in gold.
The ONLY flaw with this soundtrack is track #1, Faith Hill's "There You'll Be." It's got no business being with the others; send it to its own pop album. But get this soundtrack, go to a quiet place, close your eyes, and enjoy.
Pearl Harbor Poster
According to a Hollywood tradition that stretches all the way back to From Here to Eternity, there's never been anything quite so romantic as the idyllic days and hours before torpedo and dive bombers from the Japanese Imperial Navy blew the bejesus out of the unsuspecting U.S. fleet anchored at Pearl Harbor. Far be it for producer Jerry Bruckheimer and director Michael Bay to, er, rock the boat. Just as Bruckheimer and Bay did with Armageddon (where romance blossomed in the idyllic days and hours before a Texas-sized asteroid threatened to blow the bejesus out of Earth itself), they've again turned to ?ber-hitmaker Diane Warren to set the tone; as sung by Faith Hill, "There You'll Be" strikes the perfect balance of apocalyptic bathos, as instantly inviting--and ultimately hollow--as an 89-cent chocolate bunny. Composer Hans Zimmer fares a bit better, though his piano dirge and orchestral score occasionally get mired in the syrup as they build toward the inevitable. The action sequences themselves are somewhat subdued (especially by previous Zimmer standards), with "December 7th" even echoing Platoon and Barber's Adagio for Strings. Crucially, Zimmer evokes the tragic loss that goes hand in hand with heroism, often no mean feat in a modern computer-effects-laden, megabudget blockbuster-in-waiting. --Jerry McCulleyCountry Music CDs
