The Music of Big (1988), Pt 1

[tomtheman68vlogs1]

While I had seen Tom Hanks before the movie "Big" came out, "Big" is one of my all time fav movies, because it taught me an important lesson. Maybe it was because I was coming out of my teens & entering my 20's when I saw this or maybe because part of me wasn't ready to leave my childhood behind, the movie "Big" taught me you could keep the best things about childhood with you even as an adult is what I got from that movie when I walked away from the movie theater at the Mall. I never forgot it!

What a wonderful soundtrack. I love the reggae vibe at the beginning.

[SethTalksFilm]

@WastedPo Is there anyway of getting the album digitally?

[0lliebongo]

Thanks so much for this! Ive been trying to find this for years, one of the best soundtracks ever!

[phongv]

Listening to these beautiful tracks makes me want to be small. miss the old days and this awesome movie =((

[shananagins2006]

Wow..."Visiting Home" really does make me miss my home town. I'm moving back since I'm graduating and I cannot be more excited, it's been too long.

[Reboothis]

I miss movies like this without big explosions, but a nice storyline.

[Vladimast]

@Reboothis Amen....check into IFC. Hollywood doesn't screw up the movies on that channel.

[fatizoo1000]

One of my best screenplays ever !

[keyoty1228]

where can i find the song where the two boys sing

[WastedPo]

@keyoty1228, The only part of the movie off the top of my head where they sing is the part where Tom Hanks first approaches Billy after the transformation has happened and Hanks ends up singing that song (whose name I don't know, but others probably know) to confirm it's really him. As far as I know, that song doesn't exist anywhere as it's own separate audio track, unless someone literally made an audio clip taken from that scene.

[djbleachburn]

acually I ment whats the name of it on the album?

[WastedPo]

@djbleachburn, well, it's part of the track called "waking up." The theme also recurs elsewhere in the album in the tracks "Zoltar" and "Finding Zoltar."

[djbleachburn]

who does that song part with the carnival sound? I would really love to do something with that part

[WastedPo]

@djbleachburn, if you mean the part starting at 5:40, that's still part of the original score by Howard Shore.

[djbleachburn]

yes that is but what does that mean no way to get it? lol

[Fraggerayche]

This film is first touched me!!

[cabinozoneee]

A LOVELY MOVIE, THANK YOU FOR SHARING THE MUSIC WITH US :)

[monolithicbaby]

Oh god, this movie! <3 The music is wonderful. Thank you!

[setter132000]

Many people posted about "visiting home" which is a beautiful peice. Never get tired of it.

The peice is actually called "Its in everyone of us". I've forgotten who wrote it but there are lyrics to it and remember john denver singing it.

[theargonite1234]

@setter132000 ya but the instrumental version in the movie i think is a lot more beautiful.

[boxrock84]

i like using the internet to remember the days before the internet :)

[WastedPo]

@boxrock84, funny observation.  And so true.

[TheDudeP]

Thank you so much for posting this, love this music. Must have seen the film 50 times, I grew up with it.

[GaySingleMulatto]

Thanks a billion zillion dollars for including the Zoltar Speaks fortune telling portion of this timeless, inimitable, enchanted, gloriously brilliant soundrack. Howard Shore is a genius with a giant brain! I'm forwarding the clip's segment to my composer (as if I own him) in Italy for inspirational purposes to write the soundrack for my public art sculptures.

[Italblessings]
