The Gift - Elliot Goldenthal (From the Movie 'Sphere')

[glenshepard]

Gosh stop with the remakes, give us more movies like this original and good story 

[forkaren100]

WOW! I'm gonna cry, I really love this movie! And the music was epic! Too bad they don't make movies like this one anymore...

[Pugslee3]

@forkaren100 Thats why the 90's are so bad ass!

[forkaren100]

@Pugslee3 Yeah now it's all super heroes and CG movies... with awful music

[Pugslee3]

What was the name of the music played during the fire in the habitat scene?

[WellDone89]

loved, and always will be

[Pugslee3]

This should be available on iTunes, its sounds awesome!

[ryan7164]

@Pugslee3 The soundtrack is on iTunes, including this song.

[194cm112kg]

omg this is so brutal and beautiful, best atmospheric soundtrack ever

[Whompa02]

I liked the movie and the soundtrack is AMAZING

[lukelindemeyer]

Terrible movie, fantastic score. Poor Goldenthal, this happens to him a lot lol However, I do think he "channeled" Edward Scissorhands ala Vanilla Ice "channeling" Under Pressure. *shakes finger* Come on Elliot! You didn't see Winona Ryder dancing under snow fall when you wrote this? SERIOUSLY? lol

[HollowWithin001]

mournfully chilling, yet grand.

[TheLonelyImmortal]

I've been looking for this for a while. I sure hope I can buy it SOMEDAY.

[feoypobre74]

starts like edward scissorhand...great theme whatever

[Hellothasauras]

"I'm not gonna die!!! No no, I'm not gonna die!!" Love that part.

[komutex]

This movie tells many things about human behaviour.

It makes people think.

[Sulaco516]

This reminds me of when a transport shuttle is on approach to a starship in drydock.

[wojakinio]

This cannot by describe in any words... but i have one - Masterpiece 

[sniperhell124]

one word > Magical <

[BClay74]

I honestly wasn't too all impressed with this movie (although the black hole/unknown event scene was sweet), but this is a fantastic song/soundtrack.

Thank to the OP for posting. Appreciated.

[Fishies125]

One of my all time favorite tracks. Sooooooo beautiful.

[JACKnoSally]

i remembered when i put two and two togther and figured out why i loved certian movies so much. alien 3, sphere, batman..... the music duh !

[Lonestarr357]

Of all the "Edward Scissorhands" ripoffs, this is, without question, my favorite. Beautiful piece of music.

[TalkinXbox]

Eliot Goldenthal is far more religious in his musical motifs than Elfman. That's probably the difference between them. Check out Alien3's score for an example.

[prrrrecious]

@TalkinXbox so right. I could listen to goldenthal for hours.

[davidovich00]

Brilliant... sounds elfman but with more spirit and less violins, lol. No, but really... this is great.

[TalkinXbox]

"We have the power.... to forget."

[HerDarkestHour]

thank you thank you thank you

[richpunk77]

Ethereal and enchanting... I've never heard anything quite like this. It's a true masterpiece!

[Sielunrauha]

The part 0:50-1:20 reminds me of Danny Elman's Ice Dance song.

[Ancienttowers]

Agreed it does a bit. Elfman and Goldenthal have different styles BUT it's almost as if you like one your BOUND to like the others music.

[Sielunrauha]

I agree. Fantastic music makers, very different but equally great.

[prrrrecious]

Wonderful music.

[FeroxX]

i wanna make metal music which can bring the same kinda epic and haunting feeling.. damn.

[NeoFallR]

Check out In Dreams OST. Metal and epic.

[fugazi32]

A jungle remix would be sicker!

[avinotion]

nice!

[DBZmusicboy01]

:D

it sounds like batman forever

but yeah same person making the music

wonderful musician

[hacker848]

wow

Tanks you

long time looking for this

[Matthai9007]

yeah I finally found that track!!! I'm keen on this movie, can't  get out of my head

[ki11erdrag0n]

Do you know where I can get the soundtrack?

[GeaDancu]

I trully love the musical creativity of Elliot Goldenthal.

[gocrazed1]

am i the only person who likes this movie?

[naureenq]

i loved the book, absolutely my favorite book ever, but the movie is crap. did not do justice to michael crichton.

[gocrazed1]

try looking at the movie like its, it's own creation, not something based off something else. Then youll see its actually not that bad.

[naureenq]

yeah you're right. just can't get michael crichton out of my head. i thought the casting was perfect even though beth needed to be more macho.

[Joaquin602001]

I thought the movie kinda... falls apart after they find the sphere. But despite that, I do love the soundtrack. ^^

[d3p3ch3mod3]

the people who read the first jurassic park book before they saw the movie thought the movie was crap too even though its the movie that got most people into michael crichton

[Joaquin602001]

I like both of them equally. :/

[sunsetsbythesea]

even the boogy monster in your dreams!

[sunsetsbythesea]

i love this song!

[sanmarcosmark1]

where do you think I got my idea that aliens might be in our government... they are probably real dissappointed in us... ciggerette butts in the ocean... plastic bags... YUCK!

[ceache]

great composer

prokovief must have inspired him

thats for sure

[metabog]

Does anyone know what instruments are doing those etherial arpeggios in the back at the beggining? They sound like flutes.

[warri9]

if any one wants the soundtrack to this movie than just let me know.

[graw4444]

you mean you own the soundtrack!?

i would like to get it,but im not able to,so if you heve it,please tell me

[zanewich]

God that gives me shivers everytime i hear that song i luv it so much . elliot goldenthal is legend man

[LifestreamWarrior]

No matter what people say about Alien 3, it has incredibly beautiful music. Adagio is just brilliance. This is also great.

[metabog]

Man I love it when that deep brass comes in. Sounds sort of like Alien 3, though.

[MattCarterSurrealist]

Thats cos its the same composer :-p

good though

[metabog]

I know, it's SO good.

[MattCarterSurrealist]

Yeah! I so want to download this but it isn't so readily available...

[Myaff]

Oww, it's great *_*

[iam1ledgend]

i saw everything of the movie except the ending =[

[boomanjr]

This is my favorite film!

[sunglassesron53]

no worries osmabrili ;)

yeah its really tough to find to download on the web matzi1 :(

your best chance is a p2p network or to try and find/buy the soundtrack album..

[osmabrili]

Great movie, amazing music, terrific actors... I've watched 11 times so far... thanks!

[matzi1]

Where can I get the music from? I must find it!

[sunglassesron53]

i agree!

[ScarranHalfBreed]

Yeah, very underrated.

[epoch33]

great film
