  • i am crying this song is so beautiful

  • this is one of the best movies and one of the best theme songs really perfect

  • This was a great film that got snubbed at the Oscars.

  • @mickyshaun I appreciate the kind words. It was a combination of temporarily being inhabited by the music, and the character limit imposed by Youtube. Without both, it would have been unreadable.

  • @seabrin

    Thomas Newman is a genius! I haven't seen the movie, but can surmise its mood from the theme music, which you so aptly interpret.

  • That movie changed my life.....

  • This movie really tore into me. I felt everything the characters were feeling. Very powerful film

  • my new favorite movie!!!! Loved it!!!

  • Comment removed

  • This movie talks about a question that many people ask themselves, including me

  • for anybody who listens to mcr, does there song early sunsets over monoroville no remind you of this movie!?..idk maybe its just me

  • AMAZING movie, I can watch it over and over.

  • watched this movie for the first time today.....INFINITELY better than I thought it would be. Several parts choked me up and the ending was brilliant. Thomas Newman soundtrack always adds an extra layer of quality (Shawshank Redemption, Meet Joe Black, Road To Perdition, and American Beauty) wouldn't be the same without his music.

  • @WilliamN188

    I haven't seen this movie, but I agree with your observation that theme music with the signature quality of Thomas Newman's adds an indispensable and indefinable layer of meaning to a production. Indeed it makes me want to see it...

  • F*CKING EPIC !!! <3

    Love it ..

  • this sounds so similar to the american beauty soundtrack (i know thomas newman wrote both scores)

  • great song

  • Man, I knew their initial fling on the Titanic was not gonna last once they reached the USA.

  • @Galvanizer67 You ruined the ending for me now as I didn't know that. ;)

  • @sperestillan Was hardly much of a secret from the start of the film...but people ruining endings is quite annoying...but further still if you hadn't seen the film, you shouldn't be reading the comments section of something from the film. =P

  • @l2enegadesofFunk It was a joke, lol.

  • @sperestillan lol good one

  • Classic song.

  • great movie

  • Thomas newman is brilliant at playing with people's emotions

  • Leo was AMAZING in the scene when this melody came in.. God, I cried so much..

  • Thomas Newman, you make me cry.

    Absolutely brilliant

  • this filmwas better than old titanic

  • from 0:00 to 2:08 its astonishing , from 2:08 to 4:57 im spechless...

  • ive never seen a movie such as this with such tension and great acting, this story even written over 60 years ago, still translates even today spot on.

  • This film continues to be my favorite. I just love the intensity, and I'm sure- even with the amazing acting, the drama, it wouldn't be as good if it didn't have this amazing, flawless score to back it up. I will forever love Richard Yates, Leonardo DiCaprio, Kate Winslet, and most of all? Thomas Newman.

  • Such an underrated film. Newman is one of the greatest composers of all time. His score to "Road To Perdition" is nothing short of masterful.

  • just an amazing song

    

  • Thomas Newman has a very distinctive style - the Green Mile was another movie with his soundtrack - equally haunting and evoking....

  • @Gobears84 Same with American Beauty and Meet Joe Black, great scores to great films.

  • This song made this film so much more beautiful. The song was, just like in Titanic, always started on exactly the right moment, just to make everything somehow more intense. This film is amazing.

  • Hauntingly beautiful!!!!!!!!

  • this movie is mindblowing

    kate should have won an oscar for this one and not the reader...it really puzzled me when i watched both the movies how come it didn't fetch her an oscar

    leo darling i give you loads of kisses muaaah muaaah...hope jury does justice someday :\

  • To describe the banality of life is this song. It is just fitting to be enthralled at the wonderment, and yet after the bitter end, to long to tune it out and turn it off. Brilliant.

  • why dicaprico have to be perfect for every character he plays....

  • @rajamec1 I take it you are complimenting him. I think he is just a great actor, probably the best around that plays his roles excellently regularly. Other great actors usually study their characters for extensive amounts of times but Dicaprio doesn't seem to need that.

    Also, I feel directors choose characters that fit DiCaprio, so it ends up being win win.

  • @rajamec1 Because he's born for acting.

  • @rajamec1

    he's just a kickass actor

  • Undoubtedly one of the best movies I have ever seen, it was so real and believable, like I was with them in every scene.

  • guys plz answer me, is this the latest scenes track or the one at the credits?

  • Sometimes,when i have so many troubles and i feel like shit,i just want to turn on this music and run fast like Frank Wheeler did in the end .

  • so beautiful, feels like the soundtrack to my life...

  • I believe it's the best drama about everyday issues I have ever seen. The performances are impossible to describe, the dialogues and the screenplay are so subtle and disturbing, the story is so true and everything is sustained by this evocative, striking music. I walked out of the theatre stunned.

  • "Music is what feelings sound like." Author Unknown.

  • butiful soutrack, drepressing movie

  • the movie moved me and hats off to my darling kate!!

  • the movie moved me and hats off to my darling kate!

  • Breathtaking track!

    To sample or not to sample is the question....

  • The piano sounds so warm and soft.

  • Comment removed

  • Does anyone know where I could get the mp3 version of this?

  • @omghowisthat

    uh ya itunes...under thomas newman...

  • adoro questi film tanto da averlo guardato per 3 volte consecutive in un giorno!! :)

  • April's situation in the movie, was the epitomy of loneliness..

  • I have a CD of 1 -2 minute snippets from several of his movies...one of my favorite compilations...I play it for people they are amazed. What is amazing is everyone has heard these songs but have never connected them to one artist. As soon as I hear a song from a new movie that is Thomas Newman Scored, I go see the movie as I know it will be emotional because of his work.. this song is probably one of his more haunting... American Beauty and Horse Whisperer are favorites..

  • Anyone remember this song from Top gear?

    season 15 episode 6 in the factory?

  • @BlakjeKaas

    Sure do! with the classic british sports cars.

    Top gear certainly use a lot of nice music to great effect.

  • Whats the actuall song name?

  • thomas newman isn't the genuis behind this movie..but added to the unbelievable depression of the story.

  • Great movie, flawless acting, drama, perfect.

  • @Zh0rik dude your a prick

  • @chickenmanchickenman ??? You're talking to me? Are you talking to me? You're talking to me? ??????

  • @Zh0rik

    yes, should have won ore oscars than any other movie!!

  • i love this song sooo much!!!

  • Awesome track and so spooky too.... right on.. :)

  • im speechless

  • the music is the same with road to perdition, very dissapointed two different films with the same music

  • top gear

  • @03iamhopeless same here. The very last song on Top Gear Season 15 Episode 6. God, they use good songs in their series.

  • @imapunkemo

    indeed, but it is sometimes difficult to track their songs or melodies..

  • nice...:D

  • i saw this movie yesterday for the first time, is really amazing and in the end i felt so sad, even because of this music...

    is so beautiful

  • such a moving piece - even if you've never seen the movie..genius

  • Incredible story complemented by an incredible soundtrack... :'o)

  • This song is so hauntingly beautiful

  • I own a shelf. On that shelf is a collection of some of the greatest movies of all time. It is what i refer to as The Prestige. The Elite in movie collections. I have works such as 'Shawshank Redemption' and 'Burn After Reading'. Ladies and Gentlemen, 'Revolutionary Road' has made that shelf!

  • This is beautiful. Music so deeply moving really helps contribute to solidify the movie as a whole. This is without a doubt a great movie.

  • it was so sad :/

  • it's so beautifully haunting. it hits me every time i hear it.

  • I watched this movie cuz of Leonardo and Kate, but to be honest it was weird and boring... the only thing that kept me sane through the whole movie was the amasing music :3

  • one of the best films i have ever seen. hands down. superb acting..thumbs way up..

  • there is no words to discribe it, and you know that it's true.

  • there is no words to discribe it, and you know that it's true.

  • Fa vibrare l'Anima..

  • gives me goosebumps every time, its one of those few songs to really make me cry.

  • Fantastica. Questo pezzo è incredibilmente bello! Mi ha completamente incantata! Ero nella mia camera mentre mio fratello guardava appunto il film ad alto volume e in tutta la casa riecheggiava questa musica *.*

    Non ho potuto fare a meno di innamorarmene! Non vedo l'ora di vedere il film e commuovermi, commuovermi e commuovermi!

    Bellissimo!!!

  • Beautiful soundtrack. Winslet deserves every accolade she got for this movie, she is an amazing actress. DiCaprio - well, he tries hard, but he looks like a kid trying on his dad's suit.

  • this was a brilliant film and this soundtrack is perfect for the film. Thomas Newman is a genius.

  • ...i dont know what to say.....just thanks...thank u for upload it....

  • neanche la Pioggia ha mani cosi p i c c o l e

  • I just saw the ending of the movie. And then I listened to this track. And now here I am listening to it again.

  • Magnificent film, I like it more each time I watch it. The music is just, so.

  • se incontrassi io una donna come il personaggio di kate winslet, le darei la mia anima e il mio corpo dalla punta degli alluci all'ultimo filo di capelli, ossa comprese

  • lol, thomas newman reused the song from the gross sex scene in pay it forward.

  • great song. While it was playing in the film I was like: "Where the hell did I hear it?" And they I remembered that beautiful song from Amiracen beaty - not the same, but the same composer, so it´s veeeeeery similar. Both songs are great, masterpieces. And the whole movie is just... Wow.

  • magic song!!you believe you are alone in the world!!!!just love it!!

  • such a sad ending fantastic film brilliant score whisper of a thrill from meet joe black is beautiful Thomas Newman is a master at putting raw emotions into his peices

  • BEAUTIFUL!!! the movie itself had a sad aura, and this score is just perfect at projecting all the emotions portrayed in it.

  • This Movie is Gonna Break Your Heart!!!!

    I cried in the disbelief that a movie like this can directly punch my heart and get over me. I wish, I wish... I could give a hug to Frank Wheeler.... I wanted to cry with him.... Masterpiece.

  • i love this song so much!!!

  • I love that song! :)

  • this song is so inspiring. amazing cannot even begin to describe it<3

  • the soundtrack is very similar to american beauty's

  • @Bellhorn25 and to road to perdition also...

  • es hermosa la acncion vi esta peli con mis amigos del palestra m intereso la tengo en casa y caundo al veo m imaginoq soy yo con una chica a la q estimo mucho

  • This movie was brilliant! The soundtrack is amazing too!

  • i agree

  • m encant este sonido dfondo vi esta peli con unios amigos dpalestra m intereso m imagien q era yo con otra chica

  • Beautiful song, just as his score from "Road to Perdition". Haunting when heard during movie. A gut-wrenching sad movie. Performances by Dicaprio & Winslet are remarkable. Thanks for posting this song.

  • made me cry, such a powerful song

  • Thomas Newman genius! Awesome song

  • very sad movie :(((( great music

  • The best song ever.

  • actually thomas newman became a trade mark ..

    from road to perdition >> to Revlotionary road

  • garr..diese musik is genial ;)

  • I loved the movie

  • Kate Winslet should have been get the OSCAR for this movie. It's AWESOME!!!! And Leo Dicaprio as well!!!! WHAT A PERFORMANCE!!!!!

    And the music is fantastic as well!! Sam Mendes is the best!!!!!!!

  • Indeed, it almost has a haunting quality, but in a nice way; very beautiful, but such a sad movie.

  • Fell asleep at the start of the movie and woke up to see the last 30 minutes with this song at the end. I wanted to cry and had no idea why! Beautiful

  • wow, that's actually quite amazing. I would want to experience that.

  • @October33rd Yeah! Same thing here, i was bored but the ending...HOLY SMOKE! Sam Mendes, did it again!

  • @October33rd so its not just me, because i fall into tears everytime. wow, i love this.

  • @October33rd

    That's the magic of music.

  • @October33rd

    I hope you eventually watched the film. It was exceptional in my opinion. This soundtrack was fitting for it, invokes emotions somehow.

  • this song just grabs you...it invokes different emotions.

    great song.

  • Yes I agree...

  • Another Newman masterpiece. BTW I hated the movie first showing but now am very impressed. Kate & Leo are stunning..just wish could have had the Hollywood ending...

  • great music, great casting.

  • so can someone explain the ending for me

  • @ibfuckd Choises, in every day life.

  • You must have seen this film and heard this music - an amazing production!

  • I love the movie and incredibly addicted to this track:)good job newman!!!

  • @crandom0115 yeah, this really is addicting! I can;t stand how addicting it is, as I can't shut it off! :)

  • Newman is a GENIUS!

  • yes he is !

  • His score's are always just the right side of contemporary, appealing to young and old.. My 3 year old niece will testify to that, thanks to Wall-E:) Without wanting to sound like an arse, the lead piano melody to this track is pretty f***ing addictive:)

  • beautiful....

  • Amazing AMAZING movie.

    I loved it.

    this song is amazing too .

  • @ashleyst: It was an amazing movie, but my god watching Kate Winslet implode with sadness was SO damn hard to watch, I dont know if a movie has ever stuck with me as long as this one did. One of those movies where I kept telling myself to stop watching but I couldn't. Maybe the best performance I've ever seen from Kate Winslet.

  • @cwestsupporter you're right it was a powerful movie. and she was wonderful.

  • @cwestsupporter

    yeah, it is a painfully powerful movie. i love kate winslet but i think dicaprio was even better. he truly deserves an oscar.

    and watch away we go, too. especially if you think after watching revolutinary road that there is no hope in this world.

  • Beautiful music,beautiful film.

  • Thomas Newman's soundtracks do sound a like. :O but they're all really pretty.

  • It reminds me of some of Thomas Newman's soundtracks from Road to Perdition.

  • I love James Horner,& Thomas Newman the both wonderful

  • damn, dude. this is so fucking awesome. thomas newman must be the god of TRUE music

  • this song is so darn beautiful everytime you listen to it, it just keeps getting better. its so awesome cause it doesnt even need words to be heard the music really speaks for itself in this piece. i love the emotion of the song and it makes me really happy.

  • Amazing :)

  • It really give me so peacfull numb feeling i really feel like ran in the jungle hahahahah

  • Film naprawde wspaniały ,oglądałam go 2 razy i nie moge go zapomniec...

  • Incredibly touching!

  • classy music.beautiful.

  • Just downloaded it from iTunes, because the song is too darn beautiful to listen to it in this quality... Thomas Newman keeps amazing me, time after time, the simplicity but the creativity, the emotion in his songs are just unbelievable!

  • Thomas Newman is a genius. He makes simple themes into masterpieces...what is best with this soundtrack, is that the theme is repeated throughout the whole movie, but slightly different every time. I love the build up when the strings come in.....ahhh I JUST LOVE IT ALL SO MUCH haha :)

  • @ThePopsicleAddict yep. He's amazing, but you do know repeating a theme in variations is common with many scores. Many scores have one major theme that resembles the movie

  • The best song i've ever heard. So emotional!

  • Comment removed

  • killer movie , they are great together as actors. very touching flick, very heartfelt, what a fked up ending though it just left u speechless..and to think that kates husband made the flick..

  • yes you are right sam mendes directed this and he is married to kate winslet
