Science Fiction Music Is Entertaining

By Brenda Burns


There are many people around the globe who enjoy listening to lyrics which are associated with a variety of movies. Tucson AZ residents know that science fiction music plays a major role within each film that is released. "Raiders Of The Lost Ark" "Jurassic Park" "ET" "Star Wars" and "Logan's Run" all have great sounds associated with them. A film by Ridley Scott named "Prometheus" also came with a great soundtrack.

Back in the late 70's millions of fans purchased a ticket to see the original "Star Wars" movie which focused on a young man with a special talent. He was a galactic knight who was chosen to save an entire world. Before this film was put together the producers hired a male named John Williams to create the perfect musical score.

Williams is also known for arranging tunes for "ET" which deals with a space alien who lands on the planet Earth. The young man within this movie befriends our little weird alien who has a taste for peanut butter candy. The musical score in this movie is very sweet and appeals to every young person around the globe. Mr. Williams shows how human emotions can play a really big role when it comes to creating tunes.

Steven Speilberg made sure to always hire Mr. Williams for any of his future projects since he was great at his job. George Lucas fully agreed with this notion and he also made it a point to use John's service. John took his time to put together a great "Raiders Of The Lost Ark" theme which was phenomenal. After this he went on to score other film projects with very popular themes.

Back in the 70's the show "Battlestar Galactica" was a big hit with viewers everywhere within the United States. This was one series which dealt with space creatures and other ugly critters who were trying to destroy the world. During the year 2004 a man named Bear McCreary decided to arrange new tunes for the latest "Battlestar Galactica" series. This show would be very different than the one made in 1978.

"Logan's Run" dealt with young people who were put to death on their thirtieth birthday in a very weird society. Jerry Goldsmith composed the haunting theme to this futuristic film which frightened many small children. The theme has a fascinating sound which goes from silent to loud very quickly.

Many people were afraid of the creatures that populated the film "Aliens." James Cameron knew that he had a hit film while creating this motion picture during the 80's. He had picked up from the original film with the same characters who were space explorers. James Horner was in charge of many tunes which were involved within this film. Luckily every sound proved to be award winning to critics everywhere.

Every person living within the United States has seen the movie "Jurassic Park" and it was a big hit over twenty years ago. The dinosaurs were awesome animals who caused terror for each individual who lived at a certain location. The very talented John Williams performed all of the tunes for this marvelous creation.
