Randy Newman - Suite From Pleasantville (Soundtrack) [1998]

[ElTGV]

Watched the movie, found this, bought it. Wouldn't have found it under SOPA...

Randy Newman is great, from "Jolly coppers on parade" until "When she loved me". This guy is working at his music every day, 8 hours, and it shows.

[ConcreteSurfer420]

But see? That's just the point! It can't stop at once, because it's in you, and you can't stop something that's inside you

[CatFlashBlue]

So... are Randy Newman and Thomas Newman related? =)

[jpmoney2k1]

@CatFlashBlue Yes. They're cousins.

[CatFlashBlue]

@jpmoney2k1 What?! No way, I was just joking.

[enochjames]

I love Toy Story and The Natural but this really is Randy Newman's greatest long-form score ever.

[yinksta]

Just like 'Out of Africa', also a great tune. John Barry Soundtrack

[xXlolxtechXx]

@brookeiscool3 most composers have something called a musical signature; a certain way of arranging chords and melodies that tie their pieces together somewhat.

[GarnetBering93]

@brookeiscool3 Same composer. Randy Newman

[gh3860]

Please tell the music from 4:31 to 6:00

[sabrinapasserine]

úžasný soundtrack .. jen nevím ke kterému filmu :)))

[Lantia4ever]

@sabrinapasserine Městečko Pleasantville :)

[johnfrancisdunbar]

super3man, I agree.

[johnfrancisdunbar]

super3man, I agree

[TheUnseenMovieLover]

Anyone else think of Toy Story from 4;34 to 4;37? It sounds really similar.

[themo8370]

@TheUnseenMovieLover Yes Randy Newman did toy story as well, so it should sound similar!

[GarnetBering93]

@TheUnseenMovieLover Same composer. Randy Newman

[TheUnseenMovieLover]

@GarnetBering93 Yeah, I know. I should have phrased that comment a bit better ;-)

[DannyWrigley]

2:59 is like the exact same as 1:50 in Danny Elfman's Edward Scissorhands score, the song Ice Dance... /watch?v=oJ9-kTrCAuE

[hellothurful]

@DannyWrigley dude youre right, lol im glad you posted that because i was lookin for it!(:

[Extreme9936]

@DannyWrigley You are right!

[schmoofaloofa]

4:45-5:00 is my favourite sequence!

[ReklawRemix]

beautiful music that suits a beautiful movie!

[funnydragon11]

wow this man is a(n) angel of music

[agltube]

I miss you Holly x :'(

[shizerbizlebar]

3:00-3:50 is prolley the prettiest thing i have ever heard

[hellothurful]

@shizerbizlebar ok if you wanna hear something almmost just as pretty, look up Adagio for Strings, its soo goregeous, but i sooooo agree with you(:

[xyagirldx]

3:15..3:46 im having that part played at my wedding when they say you may now kiss the bride i LOVE IT

[MovieMusic007]

0:00-8:11 is beyond amazing.

[KimboDiddy]

thank you. its just beautiful.

[SokeSleezy]

Is there a longer version of the first song?

[amityville77]

This is Randy Newman's best score he has ever composed and conducted. its a real american type score. Excellent and top notch

[hilaryduffok]

any body know this suit is which track composition??

in the original score album...

not the song album

[super3man1]

I wish there were a longer sequence of the music that starts at 1:35-3:45. I love it so much.

[koorizfynz]

@super3man1 i agree, it's beautiful!

[yinksta]

@super3man1 Lol i was thinking that then i read ur comment, i see a remix coming on.

[paulallenification]

3:20 amazing

[artmania1990]

this is a blatant copy of danny elfman's main theme in edward scissorhands

[skittlesgummm]

i agree with artmania1990

[KARTOFFELATTACKS]

They do have very similar chords in places; however, I don't think it's a copy by any reach. =/ The moods and audiences are completely different.

[Atlasfilms08]

@artmania1990 Hardly, you philistine. Scoff, scoff.

[Haeinscute]

Randy Newman is an absolute genious when it comes to creating music.

[GIULIAPANZA]

what's the name of the music starting at 2:59? I love it...

[noitcuolewr]

LOVE IT, I always feel like I'm flying, that the world is a beautiful place when I listen to this... [tear drop]...

[SmartLX]

The first lines of "When She Loved Me" from Toy Story 2, also by Newman and also Oscar-nominated, fit perfectly with the second major theme. When it goes "da-da dum dum dum da-da-da dum dum dum, sing, "When somebody loved me, everything was beautiful..."

[ctchampagne]

Randy Newman's best score!

[MovieMusic007]

amazing soundtrack

[ripalte]

this music is terrible! Look at how many views that great movie themes get - at least 100,000! this is just random musical notes.

[JRS1982]

You're just not listening, ripalte.

The violins swell...it's like wow!

[szkokee]

awesome

[SchrodingersCat84]

Hi...U said u uploaded the whole film score? Where can I find it? I have been looking for it for quite sometime...

[Thorpe]

Grr. Why didn't they put the suite on the score soundtrack release!? :(

[Presidentmullin]

this suite makes the movie. its perfect. I love this movie

[hades15000]

newman is good, but not as good as philip glass or hans zimmer

[yetzer19]

Don't put Philip Glass and Hans Zimmer in the same category. Hans Zimmer is from the John Williams school of scoring, where he writes basically the same score over and over again, with little regard to the movie that's actually playing. Philip Glass is a God though. Randy Newman and Thomas Newman don't really have distinctive scores though. This one gets really Toy Story towards the end. I still love it though.

[hades15000]

noted

[EnzoTheBaker]

My God are you a snob

[justschruteit]

Philip Glass is amazing, but Hans Zimmer is fantastic as well. His scores are so epic and beautiful at the same time. Randy Newman is always so cheery lol. I would class Thomas Newman as alternative. He doesn't really follow the norm and I like that.

[Edbrad]

"Randy Newman and Thomas Newman don't really have distinctive scores though. "

whaa?? Thomas Newman rips himself off as much as anyone does in Hollywood and has one of the most distinctive styles in film scoring.

[AndreaMGC]

3:06 god what a good part! Really touches the soul.

[nomadsroad]

Funny thing, this is one of my all-time favorite movies, too, yet I've overlooked the beauty of the soundtrack. That Randy Newman, he is quite Americana with his movie scores, isn't he?

[ReeseWitherspoonLove]

The movie was one of the most charming of 90s and Randy Newman is one of the greatest movie composers!

[zeppelinrock]

I totally forgot about this! I haven't seen the movie in years. Thanks for refreshing my memory!

[pensiveadagio]

Thank you for providing this song. I enjoyed listening to every minute of it and I could vividly recall and imagine scenes from the movie. =)

[dynamynx]

I would definitely be interested. I live in Australia and can't get the album off itunes here. :-(

[SarLei94]

I bought the album too, and I think that it is one of the most beautiful soundtracks which were ever made..=)

[Kiwinites]

that would be great! thanks!

[fbgcom]

I bought this album on itune, and just for the song "mural" (2:07 to 4:08)... my god it worth the 10$. Take a good pair of headphones or a big sound sytem and play it loud! WOW

[perkelebled]

One of Newmans finest, the middle piece in this one is just brilliant.

[lnkatts]

It is wonderful isn't it?

[lnkatts]

I think 3:00 to 4:00 is the most beautiful part of the song. This is my favorite movie soundtrack. It is very moving and elicits a several different emotions from the listener.

[xomissblondeox]

how can i get this for my ipod?! please help! i don't wanna buy the whole album!

[Salesman]

Best part if from 1:34 to around 2:00. I just love that scene in the movie where Bud shows them there is nothing to be afraid of when it rains. Just the camera angle when he raises his arms was amazing.

[Libloveran]

Please put this on Rapidshare and put the link in here.. I can't seem to find it anywhere and it's such beautiful music.

[wholston]

PLEASE! RAPIDSHARE!

[SarLei94]

Oh yes, please do that! Love the Soundtrack and the movie..=)

[ironian]

yes, can you please upload it to rapidshare? thanks, been looking everywhere for this.

[foofighter824]

I love "The Mural"

[snakesandaplane]

2:33 - 2:50

That part is REALLY nice.
