[bbenjimm]

[DvNezarto]

[astolfo56]

btw, this symphonic poem lasts for about 30 min., but people of course know only the fragment seen in TV or advertising...

[astolfo56]

THIS IS **NOT** A "SONG" !!! is a SYMPHONIC POEM! why people classify EVERYTHING, from a medioeval organaum to a dodecaphonic string quartet as "song"??

[Thoout]

@astolfo56 song is a category that encompasses all?

[Thoout]

@astolfo56 Oh yeah, thanks for giving me a name to the type of symphony I like. I do not know musical people in that context (of music being the common ground), so I never hear formats or names.

[username986563]

@astolfo56 everything which getting composed is a "song"

[DroneDubstepOfficial]

When i discovered my first erection this was playing .... true story LOL

[hmc117]

[vaughanr95]

If we ever meet aliens and join them in an interstellar society, this MUST be Earth's theme song

This song was playing when the sperm merged with the egg to form Chuck Norris.

[bazapunk]

[icemeltsinspring]

@bazapunk lol

[Zepikness]

What, was this acutally written for the movie or written before?

[grafou194]

@Zepikness Wait you got a point! I make a mistake! The song "Also sprach Zarathustra" was composed in 1896 by Richard Strauss. And thanks for you comment!

[shelbysid]

I dance a robot dance to this all the time! :)

[CelesteStorywriter]

You know, when I was little, I used to think this was actually the theme for 'Star Wars.' My little brain thought their themes sounded exactly alike. *shrug* Of course I know better now.

[TheRichibaby]

[rockthisworld56]

I played this in the background while creating a new world in Minecraft for the 1.5 update :D

[grafou194]

@rockthisworld56 lol XD

[LordEyli]

Is it just me or was someone playing the first note really sharp?

It hurt my ears :(

[YaleBreaker]

This isn't a song, it's a composition or, more specifically, a tone poem. And it was composed in 1896.

[StamfordLegend]

Slowest Film in the World. Fact.

Worth it. Fact.

[drumtatum1]

[greggentle]

[delta2ish]

@greggentle Best film in the world. Fact

[adrianlindsaylohan]

this movie had such astonishing everything ! from score to acting to cinematography to editing to sound and most importantly it delivers one of the most beautiful images i've ever seen on film

[FuriousOlm]

This isn't by Alex North. It's "Also Sprach Zarathustra," by Richard Strauss.  None of the music North wrote was used in the final version of 2001: A Space Odyssey. Kubrick had become too fond of the placeholder music to replace it.

[lpsloversable]

@FuriousOlm i know that! i am taking music lessons at school.i heard it there.

[coolbut12]

FFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUU
