Lux Aeterna

[erwinraaben55]

So, I liked Requiem for a Dream, and lately I came accross it's masterpiece main theme soundtrack again, and sometimes listen to the track several times in a row. As I did today aswell. (the masterpiece is called Lux Aeterna).

Just having beaten the game, I watched the art section. Then I came to the LAST LEGS section and a movie played. Very faint in the background, I thought somehow my computer had started playing music again, as I could faintly here Lux Aeterna, or not? Was I imagining this, because I heard it already too much, and with all the fireworks going on outside, I could not hear it clearly anyway. So I played the clip again, volume up, ears closer to the speakers and........ Yes, there it was! Lux Aeterna playing there!

Just wanted to mention this great coincidence and the good choise of music to whomever made that clip .

That is quite possibly the most commercially overused piece of music ever composed, and I am so utterly fucking sick of hearing it.

They use it for trailers, movie screenings, runway shows. It's EVERYWHERE. It's pretty much stock music at this point, so you shouldn't be surprised to hear it over something like that.

I contest your opinion that it was a "good choise". Lux Aerterna has become the new "Eye Of The Tiger".
Granted it wasn't as overused during SW's production, and was only meant to be placeholder music to give Michael Bross an idea of what kind of musical atmosphere Lorne and crew were looking for. It wouldn't have been in the final game. If it was, I might have had to drive out to Lorne's house and kill him in his sleep.

I hadn't really noticed Lux Aeterna. It doesn't seem to be a particularly noticeable piece of music.

Anyway, it's no Adagio In D Minor.

Which itself reminds me of Adagio For Strings.

Also, for some odd reason I keep getting Requiem For A Dream mixed up with In A Heartbeat.

Screw it, lets just make this into The Orchaestral Thread.
