The six notes that define a generation. Beautiful.

I love the top comments.

[clix411]

People getting into detail about this score and how it is better than Zimmer's Inception score are about as foolish as those in the South Park Episode about The Catcher in the Rye... just another word of thought ;)

[Edy5656]

I cannot believe this simple piano tune beat out the legendary Hans Zimmer. The Inception Soundtrack was MIND BLOWING. This actually frustrates the shit out of me.

[harlen333]

Minecraft music?

Is that you?

[CH8ZY]

@harlen333 Get out.

[BlckHrt141]

The Social Network won. Shut up & deal with it.

[xvise66]

If Hans Zimmer had written the best original soundtrack, then he would have won Best Original Soundtrack.

[yokoyoko200910]

Bbbbbbbbbbbbrilliant !!

[dicaprioedward]

to make a soundtrack for a film like social network and make you catch up in each and every moment of the movie is truly amazing.without the soundtrack i don think this movie would have been an emotionally gripping or highly entertaining.inception was epic no doubt but take Hans dark night's soundtrack and play it for inception it will still be epic! no diff for a thriller /action film.but u cant do the same for social network,personally i think the Oscars made the right decision.

[rgirls16]

I love this song... Its

so simple yet really pretty. 

[12211william]

HE GOT AN OSCAR FOR 6 UNIQUE NOTES

THAT IS BULLSHIT

[3robjones]

I think this got awarded best film music as while the film displays the demand for material wealth in the world today. The minimalist music brings you back down to earth. It makes you realise that for all the things mark zuckerburg has he doesnt have 2 of the things that make life so enjoyable. True friendship and love.

[ImagineRevolution64]

@tiredofassholes1 Complexity of music does not equal greatness. The simplicity and haunting sound of this, in mine and apparently the academy's opinion, reflects the film in a way that makes it more poignant that Hans Zimmer's piece for "Inception".

[blessedspear]

@tiredofassholes1 you do not understand the genius of this song. a fully orchestrated composition of "epic" proportions does not necessarily triumph over musical simplicity.

[TreatyMusic]

I loved Inception's score. I'm also a huge fan of the works of Trent Reznor. Inception's score was great, but it's nothing new. Instrumentally and structurally, The Social Network's soundtrack blows Inception out of the water. It may not be epic, but the movie wasn't designed to be epic.

[Tropius003]

It's the simple songs that really get to me. Repetivity is quite beautiful when done right.

[TheCompactDisco]

@tiredofassholes1 hey dude, if playing those three notes is so easy, how come you havent done it already? also take a look at the genius behind the film. a D note is sustained throughout the entire film in both music and white noise. check yourself dude.

[Dakotaph]

This won because it fit best with the movie, not because it was more epic-sounding than Inception's soundtrack. Also, this sounds better on its own than any of Zimmer's impressive if generic works.

[KeyboardMaestro1]

@tiredofassholes1

LOL. Its cute that you think cussing in all-caps makes your argument sound more convincing. Thanks for adding views to my video!

[raymanlegy]

@KeyboardMaestro1 OHHHHHHHHHH HE GOT SERVED!

[iloveyou58121]

i love this music!

[ThePersianMonkey95]

Wow it's amazing how a few notes can make such a brilliant score and define a movie!!! Love it all x

[VSHawkins]

i roll the window down, and then begin to breathe in....

[brbrbr27]

I am a huge fan of Hans Zimmer. Let me tell you his song in Inception was AMAZING AND PROFOUND. However...Trent Reznor created a masterpiece that shook the core of your soul. He provided a song that was so related to teh scene you can FEEL the state of BETRAYAL and REVENGE

[MrEinsteinz]

I bought both films and both soundtracks. I have to say The Social Network is my favorite out of the two. I don't think it mattered about how "epic" sounding something was, pieces like this definitely spoke "human" to me.

[TheRagingNerds]

I dont understand how this is was awarded best film music over inception. No offence to anyone, but hans zimmers masterworks (including inception) make this sound unworthy to be in a film.

[KeyboardMaestro1]

@TheRagingNerds Hans Zimmer has already won multiple Oscars. He won't win another for several years. He will continue to be nominated every year, though, just like John Williams was for a decade or so.

Also, the Academy looks not only at the emotional power of the music, but also its CONTRIBUTION to the art of film. Thus, this score (being very minimalist and ambient) is considered by some to be a greater ACHIEVEMENT with what can be done in film music.

[TheRagingNerds]

@KeyboardMaestro1 Inception theme was a mighty (if mimamilist itself) achivment! Without it the film would have lost alot of scale and 'epicness'. This theme did nothing to me, not a tear to the eye, or the racing of my heart (like inception) therfore, I belive that it is an apt contribution to the art of film, as I have never heard anything quite like it before.

[mlucyk]

@KeyboardMaestro1 Well said

[Winduct]

@KeyboardMaestro1 Won multiple Oscars? He has won only 1 for The Lion King.

[KeyboardMaestro1]

@Winduct I had to look it up to be sure. But you're right, he's been nominated almost every year for 15 years, but his only WIN was for Lion KIng. I thought he snagged one for Black Hawk Down as well. Now that I know that, I'm a little frustrated that the guy HASN'T won multiple oscars.

Maybe he'll share one with James Newton Howard for Batman next year.

[quadraproptic]

@KeyboardMaestro1 i'm sorry but it seems you are having a sensible discussion on a youtube video, i'm afraid i will have to report you

[KeyboardMaestro1]

@quadraproptic

Sorry about that. Perhaps I should have covered a Justin Bieber song?

[CuddlyBadger]

@KeyboardMaestro1 Everyone on this thread has been reported for coherence, sincerity and good humor.

[clix411]

@KeyboardMaestro1 AND this was completely ripped off from James in the Giant Peach... dont believe me? Look it up ;) My naaaame is jaaaammmess... thats what moooother callled meee ;)

[dekuscrubbyfan888]

@clix411 James and the Giant Peach sucked.

[clix411]

@dekuscrubbyfan888 Oh yea thats right, I forgot entertaining movies had to be based on a boring-unimaginative subject matter ;) This movie actually kind of sucked to be honest... oh and didn't I mention the score from this was stolen from a kids movie? ;)

[dekuscrubbyfan888]

@clix411 Go search Nostalgia Critic James and the Giant Peach on YouTube and my point will be proven.

[clix411]

@dekuscrubbyfan888 Yet has no relation to my point in the first place. Whether you like it or not, this score is a complete plagiarism off a kid's film. I do not care that you and Nastalgia Critic hate it; the score from Social Network is stolen. If you can not hear it or are to ignorant to admit it, then quit trying to change the subject ;)

[dekuscrubbyfan888]

@clix411 Alright then, where is this score supposedly plagiarised from?

[clix411]

@dekuscrubbyfan888 Repeat: James and the Giant Peach/ My Name is James... sticks out just like John William's Jaws Theme in the classic piece Dvorak's No. 9 New World Symphony ;)

[dekuscrubbyfan888]

@clix411 I'm talking about TSN score...

[clix411]

@dekuscrubbyfan888 The that starts everytime you get on this page :D

[Winduct]

@TheRagingNerds That was Howard Shore.

[TheRagingNerds]

@Winduct What was Howard Shore? Didnt he Do The Lord of the Rings Motion picture trilogy and twilight?

[Winduct]

@TheRagingNerds You said that Hans Zimmer did the LOTR trilogy but then you deleted your comment. Anyway yes that's Howard.

[TheRagingNerds]

@Winduct Oh, that. I didnt even think I posted it. Thats pretty stupid of me seeing as Howard Shore is mmy favorite composer...

[CreepyMojo]

@KeyboardMaestro1 How about John Powell? How to train your dragon soundtrack was EPIC!

[Pioupiouline]

@CreepyMojo

I completely agree! :-)

[gabomandela]

@KeyboardMaestro1 great posting!!! I like this song too, is very beautiful, like the john williams jobs.

[ReklawRemix]

@KeyboardMaestro1 Well said!

[SixtyNineWoodstock]

@KeyboardMaestro1 "Hans Zimmer has already won multiple Oscars. He won't win another for several years. " Does that mean you can only win so many in a certain period of time?

[KeyboardMaestro1]

@SixtyNineWoodstock

I was actually wrong about Zimmer winning multiple Oscars. My argument collapses without that part. But the idea I was trying to convey was that awards shows rarely give the same award to the same person twice. Scorsese only has 1 Oscar, which he didn't get until The Departed.

My point is that the Oscars are stingy with established talents. Everyone knows that Hans Zimmer is a great composer. That's why he won't win for awhile. Until he does a WWII film, that is.

[musictomyears777]

@TheRagingNerds

Because, Hans Zimmers soundtracks sound exactly the same as the last.

[TheRagingNerds]

@musictomyears777 I will have to dissagree with you there. Lion king and inception are very diffrent compositions...

[metalrules13]

@TheRagingNerds The Academy doesn't have any credibility as far as the Best Original Score category is concerned. In 1993, The Last Of The Mohicans by Trevor Jones/Randy Edelman as well as Conquest Of Paradise by Vangelis weren't even nominated! (Aladdin won that year btw, lol).

I don't know what kind of people decide about the nominations and the winners, but I guess they're not musicians and they don't know a lot about music in general.

[TheRagingNerds]

@metalrules13 Agreed, but they chose correctly when The Lord of the RIngs won... and thats a fantasy film, and fantasy films are renowened for failing at the Oscars...

[metalrules13]

@TheRagingNerds Yeah, The Lord of the Rings was one of the extremely few epic/fantasy type films that were recognized by the Academy in various categories. I'm not sure about the reason, probably because of the popularity and reputation of the books.

[TheHoleBag]

@TheRagingNerds I have to disagree. The score is different and unlike what has been done before. It doesn't have the conventional orchestral or a catchy tune to gain commercial appeal. And the music was used so creatively to couple with the film.

To be honest, i didn't think Inception's score was all that great. Just like the movie, I thought it was overrated.

[TheRagingNerds]

@TheHoleBag Strange, Inception(in my, and many others opinions)has one of the best soundtracks I have heard, and I would not rebuke that statement if all but tracks 3 & 12 were removed. However, those are the 'main' tracks, and without them, it would not be AS good. But honestly, all in all, Hans Zimmer has made so much, and recived so little, I think it is madness how this was rewarded for almost nothing, and Zimmer has been making music amazing for years, but has gotten one Oscar.

[TheSubtextQueen]

@TheRagingNerds Personally I think How to Train Your Dragon should have won. John Powell's use of leitmotif, tin whistle, bagpipes and fiddle was integrated beautifully with a distinct Nordic/Celtic folk sound complimented the film so well. I think that the reason it didn't win is because Americans think animation a cash cow strictly for children. Not enough people appreciate it as the art form it rightly is. Inception be my second choice as the winner, the music was fantastic.

[th3soviet]

@TheRagingNerds This soundtrack is genius in its simplicity. And also how tightly woven it is in the mood and theme of the film.

[BlackViper29X]

z land is batter

[bbdogrocks13]

It has such a sad under tone...just like the movie.

[mrmatt137]

i love this song so much...its so sad to me

[Utfiy909]

[TheNewbSpawn]

Also, much better than version with interfering violin in it.

[InternetKilledTV21]

This is so damn depressing, but I like it a lot!!

[jase276]

The only good thing from the movie

[MOTHMAN225]

I don't know about anyone else, but this theme reminds me of Lost. Still, very nice.

This song makes me horny

[PersianJoker12]

Sounds like inception and social network together.

[Warfareful]

@PersianJoker12

As much as I LOVE Inception, I have to put a big 'NO' to that... I feel that this song should be on it's own. Not in a movie.

[JayB1699]

Liked, Favourited and put on my Playlist called Calm. This is so awesome I could fall asleep to this ;)

[KOL1402]

just played this over the 800% slower version, the two combined is fuckin mind blowin, feels like im havin sex with angels

[KeyboardMaestro1]

@tanooj2 Cool, I'd love to hear it if you upload a video.

[tanooj2]

Eh? E#? you mean F E G right? not E# E G...

[KeyboardMaestro1]

@tanooj2 might be F#, I'm definitely starting on one of the black keys.

[kisslena]

Simple. Sad. Beautiful.

[NorthTexasTornados]

in real life mark zuckerberg is a very slimy person he stabbed his friend in the back for money as well

[INXSgirl2]

this piece makes my heart ache and love at the same time. There is something so beautiful about how simple it is. I am so glad that youve put the piano version on youtube...it is better than the version in the movie. I have been playing this for the past week on repeat!

[KeyboardMaestro1]

@INXSgirl2 Thanks!

[Bozzy83]

@INXSgirl2 are you fan of nin ? there are many beautiful pieces such as this throughout his works..... maybe even check out NIN - GHOSTS .... in my opinion amazing.

[kennethtucky1955]

This deserves a million more views. I actually prefer it to the original. It's like the theme tune to my life.

[KeyboardMaestro1]

@kennethtucky1955 Ha I guess we better hit the refresh button a few times then . . .

[Nevis29]

@KeyboardMaestro1 Will do again, and again, and again and again...

[TheOriginalNightHawk]

Liked, Favorite, subbed, shared, downloaded, seeding, ringtoned.

[Kijjakarn]

Is there a sheet music for this piece?

[KeyboardMaestro1]

@Kijjakarn I don't know I just figured it out by ear. I think the first three descending notes are E#, E, G, but I don't actually read any music so I'm just guessing based on my limited knowledge of which keys are which.

I figured it out pretty quickly once I started experimenting, I'm sure you can do the same.

[XxQmanxXP2B]

best piece from the movie

[itiswhatitisbitch]

a fine cover

[Warfareful]

I love this version of the song ^_^ I think I've been giving a good deal of the views to this song for the past few days ^_^ I love it too much... Movie was decent... but I think of this song more on a life perspective of the ups and downs of life :P

[ratonmickey83]

Good song. Good movie.

[Joshalots]

I'm a wilderness pants.
