It also features Lebo Morake as leader of the African chorus in the music, also Tears of the Sun is by Mr.Zimmer and Lebo, they make an awesome team IMHO:cheese:Quote:

I was checking and also the movie Kingdom of Heaven has music by Hans Zimmer and features Jeremy Irons:evilgrin:
I love Hans Zimmer. He's also been a mentor to lots of upcoming composers. The guy who did Pirates of the Caribbean's score, Klaus something, was one. I think Silvestri was as well. Anyone heard the Power of One soundtrack? It's got Lebo M on it as well. I think that's when the two of them met actually. :)
Kingdom of Heaven looks like it's gonna be a really sweet movie IMO, and yeah, I noticed the Jeremy Irons part right away heheh. :evilgrin:
Anyways, now to get back -on- topic.
Hans Zimmer has composed some incredible music in his time, especially in TLK. I didn't know that he did the music for Gladiator though, music was great in that too.:cheese:
Dear me.Quote:

The TLK soundtrack was quite clearly the best music written for a Disney film, I don't think that any other Disney movie's soundtrack can come close to it.
Oh yes.. I saw the preview for Kingdom of Heaven for the first time the other day... and I saw Jeremy Irons name... it was cool... but yeah, I'm looking forward to when it comes out, should be a good movie... I love action movies... I am so weird... I loved Gladiator, that was one awesome movie!
Jeremy Irons is the only reason I'm seeing that movie. :lol: That and the music sounds pretty cool. I can't stand OB *hides*Quote:

Hip hop.. R&B.. :yuck:
TLK's music is great though. :)
Hanz Zimmer, so as John Williams, Alan Silvestri, Klaus Badlet, James Horner, John Debney, Dany Elfman and the guy who composed the score of LOTR are excellent movie scores composers!!!
Zimmer did an excellent job in TLK, that's why he won his only Academy Award in 1995.
"This Land" is availible as a MIDI file http://www.lionking.org/sounds/MIDI/
I love "This Land"
Danny Elfman did lovely score for "Black Beauty" and who could forget "The Simpsons!":cheese:Quote:

I only recently found out just how many films Hans Zimmer did the score to - I'm gonna have to go and watch a load of films again and listen out for the music!
I always think the mark of a great score is that you don't really notice it the first time you see a film, yet you know it's there. If a film score is obviously bad you'll notice it...or is that just me?
I've grown up with the TLK soundtrack, it's almost certainly my most-listened-to album of all time and it has helped influence my taste in music. Just listening to it can bring a tear to the eye! :tears: hehe
*Bump*
I got news for many LK fans, and it is disappointing. AFI is doing another one of their "100 Years" countdown on film scores. And guess what?.. Hans Zimmer's beautiful, Oscar Winning, and breathtaking score wasn't nominated among the 250. It really pissed me off, since there are a number of recent films that were nominated and don't come even close to TLK. There's a downloadable PDF of the nominees here:

(Come one.. Harry Potter?? The Riped off score of The Godfather{Even though I looove the Godfather you can't deny the score wasn't "original"})
Yeah, booo! *ahem*
Although I'm sure the score from Harry P has moved many people to tears the way the TLK score can...is it really deserving of that place? And did it even win an Oscar?
:p
Let's face it...what do the AFI know? it's all just a popularity contest to them.
Not to change the topic back to what it was a month ago, but I never realized how much music was on pridelands.ru. Thanks for the link. There's some really nice stuff on there.:cheese:
John Williams is awesome. Seriously, don't criticize Harry Potter's music just because it's Harry Potter - the score was, in my opinion, very good..
Btw, if you're still gonna roll your eyes at HP's music, John Williams also did the score for - come on now, say it with me - Star Wars.
Ok, off topic but John Williams is a genius, I mean really Jurassic Park, Star Wars, Schindlers List, ET, Jaws and also Saving Private Ryan and many many more. Seriously... genius! :D :cheese:
And to get back on topic, Zimmer is also a genius! I love TLK's score, it's so magical.:)
John is cool tho :p
especially Star wars movie :p
Zimmer to..
especially on TLK :p
yeah they both bring the magic to movie
ohhkay... im thinking..
what happen if hans Zimmer is not involved in TLK
and John William not involved in Star wars?
