[MarSwanlake]

I love it... reminds me good times!

[SuperMOPHEAD100]

Genius.

[ABCREADER1]

Great! Great! Fantastic! ;D

[rocketman544]

I listen to this song when I work out. It really helps when I lift weights.

[superakuma1]

BRAVOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!

[loquitoluchito7]

Espectacular !!!! asombroso !!!! williams es un condenado genio !!!!!!

[Battle5tarRJC]

I challenge anyone to not being able to hum at least one piece of John Williams music.

[seadragon01]

John Williams and John Barry (sadly no longer with us) probably 2 of the greatest composers for the movie industry.

[Richcelt]

Richard Donner, the Director, stated in the DVD commentary that you could almost hear the word "Superman" in the score. A testament to William's genius.

[0000BIOHAZARD]

like it

[pbrucpaul]

He may very well be as great as Miklos Rozsa for this kind of music.

[Sarasdad91]

It was so sweet that they used this theme at the end of Samllville season finale.

[NPA1001]

apparently they are not going to use this theme for the "Man of Steel" film. Utter disgrace if true it just won't be Superman without this

[Sarasdad91]

@NPA1001 I sincerely think that the man of Steele will flop, even worse that Returns.

[Buuuuuutch]

John Williams is a Super conductor (bzzzzz)!

[pomping14]

John Williams, thank you for the music for my childhood.

[Dunlas25]

john got really into this one with his gesticulation, love it

[youangeltube]

[SasoryCantabile]

[notreason]

Magic. A true master of his craft. Perfect song for Superman.

[Xander671987]

waooooooooooooo es hermoso

[Faceman825]

Ladies and gentlemen, a genius at work. John Williams does not create mere music, oh no, he creates icons. Towering, great, colossal icons that stand across motion pictures. This is, in my humble opinion, the greatest theme, for any motion picture I have ever heard. Every single note seems to sum up everything we know and love about Supeman.

[jezz2k]

I've heard many different composers try to do this theme. None of them can quite match the movie-precision of John's original being played here. As an audiophile I can tell that every instrument was present (including the ones you only hear very briefly), each player's timing was exact, and every nuance accounted for... all of which is very difficult to get right when played live.

[hernandezrivas]

Watching this made me cry of pure joy... Whilliams is UNIQUE... LOVE this theme.. Whilliams is The MASTER of Film music..

[jimmytkirk]

Never again in history has an artist left such an indelible imprint on the mythos of Superman as John Williams did.

Around the World and in America ... in the hearts of of millions young and old....

John Williams Superman theme is Superman himself.

[simonswesea]

musical awsomeness conducted by the living legend and master himself............FUCK YEAH!!!!!!!

[robertadiskin]

To me, John Williams is way too cool!!! There are too many films to mention, but just one, Star Wars wouldn't be Star Wars without him.

[CaprimusicGLP]

No other music sounds like this. John Williams is unique.

[MezabarbaBH]

At starts - 0:01 to 0:24 (approximately) I listen the music saying "Superman"

[kmcleod31721]

This is from the PBS show "Previn and the Pittsburgh". Andre Previn was the host and had Miklós Rózsa and John Williams on talking about film music, then and now, and of course conducting their work with the Pittsburgh Symphony. This was on just a few months after Superman had been released. Good to see it again.

[nick1979usmc]

this is the music you will hear when Jesus returns!

[hobokenplayboy]

@nick1979usmc Amen.

[youangeltube]

A Master playing w note songs! EPIC MARCH!

[gsaugen]

As a child I remember I used to put a towel on my shoulders and pretend to be Super-Homem (Superman, in my language). Thank God I've never thought of jumping from a high tree or a high building, or else I'd be dead now! How naive I was! Tell me, friends from YouTube: Have you ever played that way as a kid? (GILBERTO SAUGEN FROM BRAZIL)

[libriano30sex]

perfect



[neverdenytheu]

2:44 to 3:02.........EPIC

[neverdenytheu]

2:44 to 3:02 i picture Superman ripping off the shirt revealing the S

[yoniviner]

@neverdenytheu I see that starting at 4:05 to pretty much the end.

[neverdenytheu]

chilling right down to the bone

[Disley74]

Not Maurice Murphy!!

[kcwbar]

RIP Christopher Reeve!



[micfail2]

this song plays every time i walk into a room

[Score1974]

@micfail2 Ahh I see! So the guy I see on your YT video must be Clark Kent right? ;-)

[frontierdriver]

@micfail2 Imperial March for me :p

[micfail2]

@frontierdriver damn it, you have a more badass theme song then me \-:

[frontierdriver]

@micfail2 well, if you feel the dark side take you over once entering, it's ok to switch em out!

[micfail2]

@frontierdriver yes...i can feel the hate rising in me...

[frontierdriver]

@micfail2 Good, I can feel your anger. I am defenseless. Take your weapon. Strike me down with all of your hatred and your journey towards the dark side will be complete!

[nick1979usmc]

bravo!

[StephenDeMille]

John Williams is my favorite movie soundtrack composer. With this piece he creates a masterpiece.

[pards135]

now this is a theme song . . .

[vicusmaxima]

He is my favorite ^_^

[DjAntomattei]

Blows my fuckin' mind... Everytime!

[TheCoastalPirate]

I've seen this video several times. And the opening credits for the movie, Superman and every time I hear the music the first thing that comes to my mind is; John Williams is a musical genius. This music fits the Man of Steel more than any other theme I've heard. There will never be another composer like John Williams in my life time.

[SilverJinn]

This music never fails to inspire me. One of...the best theme music ever.

[d4seasons]

@SilverJinn just powerful & beautiful. john williams is the master. do not disturb the master @ work. just wished he composed the remaining Superman movies.

[kcwbar]

John is the best!

[ikegamiHL55]

How can you listen to 100 or so of the finest musicians on the planet playing such powerful music and NOT be moved? I got chills watching this. Can you imagine what it must have been like to be in that studio as they performed this for keeps? The version that actually made it into the film?

W O W.

[SONYmakebelieve7]

Man of steel forever! Christopher Reeve R.I.P.

[francislebrija]

OLE OLE Y OLE

[Guilherme7530]

This is my favorite one *_* Or he was the writer of the "Imperial March"? Because the "Imperial March" is the only song from a soundtrack who sounds better than this one, to me.

[darthkurland]

@Guilherme7530 John Williams did write the "Imperial March."

[Guilherme7530]

@darthkurland Thankyou very much :D

[emill210]

Fantastic performance! Anybody know what orchestra this is?

[pickupnote]

@emill210 Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra.

[jermaineonealnumber7]

30 years ago? Excellent audio! Thx Score1974!

[cynmaiden1976]

awesome!!

[RavenwolfFoxtrack]

this! This is what I remember as a kid. the power, the hope, the feeling of something great to help save us. This is what the music reminds me of.

[Score1974]

@RavenwolfFoxtrack Yes you're right! Good written music is able to evoke certain feelings in our mind, often as long as we life.
