@solidsnakepac It's called Confrontation, I believe...it was supposed to be a variation on a Pink Floyd song that they couldn't get the copyright release on...so Tangerine Dream just did a similar version of their own (frankly, their's is better anyway IMO).
@burlearth Partly, but in reality, Mann wanted to use a SPECIFIC Pink Floyd song, and it wasn't "Comfortably Numb," it was something else...and I've heard it before and this Tangerine Dream song sounds almost just like it...only better.
@20thcenturyfilmdocs It follows the 'Comfortably Numb' chord structure almost exactly -the mood is the same- and it wasn't Tangerine Dream who recorded it, it was Craig Safan, a soundtrack composer: craigsafan . com/filmmusic.html
I can't see any established band like TD ever agreeing to copy -not cover- the work of another well established band like Pink Floyd.
@burlearth You're right about Safan...but again, it's not Comfortably Numb, I can't find the article on Wiki or elsewhere, but Mann SPECIFICALLY had another Pink Floyd song in mind...it was NOT Comfortably Numb...
Thanks! Been wanting to see this for some time...love Mann's work. Thought you might get in trouble with rights, never figured seeing this on youtube!!! Can see why it didn't do well back then;very stylized & detailed. Still holds up. Saved me a trip to netflix!!! MORE! BTW, made my security guard duty more entertaining!!!;)
I'll echo all comments below (including the reference to Drive).
And yes, I want the Tangerine Dream music for these end credits to either play during my funeral...or to play in my office when I finally say "Take this job and shove it!", quit, and walk out.
also...but wtf is the name for the piece of music playing there? Great track by Tangerine Dream but dunno it's name.
