Free Music Notes for Titanic: Music from the Motion Picture (1997)
Free Music Review: The best album of all time
Hit: 5 Stars
Yes, I'm one of those people who thinks this is the best album of all time. While ten years has shown its weak parts (electronic choirs and little to none echoing, which usually adds to a score), it's still a masterpiece. Best selling orchestrated album ever, 2nd highest selling soundtrack in history, not to mention one of the biggest hit singles of all time... Look at the evidence if you're completely new to this. You're guaranteed to find something to like in this!
Particularly if you're a James Horner fan. While I personally am fond of the An American Tail soundtracks, this album has a knack for pulling you in on track 1 and not letting go until track 15. Horner is lucky, because most of his soundtracks get a little bit boring in the middle and tend to repeat themselves. This album almost seems like it has a plot to it, and because the music is so much a part of the movie, perhaps it does. I know exactly where I am in the movie when I listen to this album, and vice-versa.
Particular favourites are "Rose", "Hymn to the Sea" and, of course, "My Heart Will Go On" (although do yourself a favour and find the uneccessary but better version, which sports more instruments and is used for the video clip - it has amazing background singers, drums and a huge ending that sends chills down my spine!).
It will be a long time, if ever, that we come across another soundtrack as memorable as this. Remember 'Over the Rainbow'? Of course you do, even if you don't like the song. Remember 'Titanic OST'? Of course you will. Everybody will.
Plus, as a not-really-religious person, there is something hauntingly spiritual about this music. It would creep me out if it weren't so beautiful.
Titanic: Music from the Motion Picture (1997) Poster
The 1997 Academy Award winner for Best Dramatic Score, James Horner's Titanic was the first soundtrack to reach the No. 1 slot on the Billboard charts in two decades; it also seemed to rival the Big Mac in sales for the year. And what can we say about Celine Dion's "My Heart Will Go On"; would "ubiquitous" suffice?Horner's combination of synths, chorale, and orchestra perfectly underscores the action in director James Cameron's 20th-century melodrama. It's a finely honed piece of Hollywood craftsmanship from a composer who has tackled more musically adventuresome projects in his career. FYI: Horner's follow-up to Titanic was the score for a different disaster: Deep Impact. --Jerry McCulley
