Sometimes... I'd agree.

[a-way-of-sin.livejournal.com]

idk I love them, I sometimes even find soundtracks even better than the movie

start listening at 1:30

[xxsomeoneelsexx.livejournal.com]

HOW CAN YOU NOT FIND THIS EXCITING

HOW D:

[allstarzs.livejournal.com]

Some soundtracks do stand on their own and are great, but most of the time they don't.

[badass-tiger.livejournal.com]

Well... duh. Soundtracks were made to go with the moment, but I think the reason they're listened to outside of watching the movie is because it reminds them of the movie. And then there are the truly amazing soundtracks that can stand on their own, the type you could play at a wedding and not have it sound weird.

[othellia.livejournal.com]

I love soundtracks. I love them because I can imagine the story and scene behind them as I listen. I love them because of the full orchestrated beauty that's not in modern, mainstream music. I love them because I can listen to them while I write essays and not worry about typing out any of the lyrics instead. I love them because they can bring out mixtures of emotions in me that words simply can't.

And just because why not, have one of my favorites.

[oflittlebrain.livejournal.com]

Yeah, it's something I've never really understood. But then again, I don't usually like to listen to instrumentals in general. Lyrics are very important to music for me.

[aetter.livejournal.com]

Uhm, different tastes?

[(Anonymous)]

Just goes to show how good the soundtrack is.

Favorite soundtrack songs?

[case]

Go!

[malstroem.livejournal.com]

BLASPHEMY.

[kelincihutan.livejournal.com]

It baffles me that people don't.

[(Anonymous)]

You're right most movie soundtracks are a lot less interesting without their original context. There are exceptions though, as you rightfully acknowledge.

I won't bore you with mine. But I have to say that between Philip Glass' original works and his better soundtrack pieces there's little difference.

[tinitrinity.livejournal.com]

I love soundtracks. Sometimes because the music was the best part of the movie and sometimes because listening to them reminds me of the movie.

[spacebabie.livejournal.com]

What no one has brought up Daft Punk's Tron Legacy Soundtrack yet?

FS: I am disappoint

[mistaria.livejournal.com]

On the contrary, I like listening to it because it takes me back to various moments/emotions that were in the movie/tv show (and it makes the music even better for me).

Now if we're talking music from old 70s/80s movies or soap operas or something then no, I have no desire to listen to it out of context.

But most scores now (I said most, not all) have tons of music that can stand on its own.

For instance listen to this and tell me it isn't absolutely gorgeous:

[helenadax.livejournal.com]

I love some soundtracks, sometimes because the music is awesome and sometimes because it reminds me of the movie.

[firemelon.livejournal.com]

I hate movie soundtracks too, but I loves me some video game and Japan related shit.

[(Anonymous)]

It's the same thing as listening to any other instrumental music. Just because some song was made for a movie it doesn't mean it can't stand on it's own. And a lot of people really like to listen to instrumental music I'm one of them). Sometimes it can be because it just reminds them of something from the movie, but most of the time it's just because it's good music.
I think it all comes down to people's tastes in music.

Like, for example, as some people already pointed out in this thread, how can you not like to listen to Hans Zimmer, in or out of any context?

[(Anonymous)]

Hmm, I think I'll open this thread in a new tab so I can have some music to listen to while I browse the responses to the other secrets :)

[hoopyfroodyford.livejournal.com]

I guess you wouldn't really like my music collection, as it's full of movie (and occasionally TV) scores. Lord of the Rings, Pirates of the Caribbean, Tron, Inception, The Social Network, Amelie, The Fountain, Battlestar Galactica, Sunshine, Serenity, Doctor Who... I could go on.

[xenafox.livejournal.com]

O_o;;; In SOME cases I agree, but who the heck isn't all revved up after hearing like..the Indiana Jones score??

[its-still-talk.livejournal.com]

I think you need to start watching movies with soundtracks

[rabidsamfan.livejournal.com]

And then there are times when the soundtrack is a lot better than the movie.
