ROYAL PHILHARMONIC ORCHESTRA - THEME FROM TERRAHAWKS

[DirektorMK]

Even though the word "epic" is overused these days, in this case it couldn't be more appropriate! :)

[BigSteve300]

Now this is cool!

[faabfelipe]

EPIC!!!!!!!!! X-D

[battywattywoo]

The Thawks puppets could have made a great remake of the Wizard of Oz; with Kate as Dorothy, Mary as Glinda, Zelda as Wicked Witch of the West, Cystar as Witch of the East. Zero = tin man, Stu Dapples = scarecrow, and Mrs. Dapples = Auntie Em. Ninestein would be the Wizard.

Terrahawks! Stay on this channel This is an emergency!

[SuperLara911]

terahawks i love it

[MrPJC101]

Absolutely brilliant rendition of the Terrahawks theme........this would be a great version to use in a live action Terrahawks movie.

Anyone who agrees, please comment :)

[RussinTirnaNog]

@MrPJC101 Gary Sinese to play Tiger

[RussinTirnaNog]

@MrPJC101 Bayonce to play Kate Kestral,

[MrPJC101]

@RussinTirnaNog VERY good choice to play Ninestein, not so sure about the choice of Kate Kestrel though, but hey...everyone's opinions are different. Here's who i would cast in the roles (going with your choice of Gary Sinise though)

GARY SINISE .... Dr. 'Tiger' Ninestein

DIANE KRUGER .... Capt. Mary Falconer

ZOE SALDANA .... Capt. Kate Kestrel

CHRISTIAN BALE .... Lt. Hawkeye

JACKIE CHAN .... Lt. Hiro

[RussinTirnaNog]

@MrPJC101 Yes, we are getting there.  How about Chris Evans for Hawkeye, Christian is a little too old for part I think, lol and yes go for Jackie Chan or again some one younger could be Masi Oka from Heroes????

[MrPJC101]

@RussinTirnaNog Think i'll stick with Jackie Chan to be honest, but hey, good suggestion all the same. What about changing Christian Bale.......to CHRIS PINE?

[RussinTirnaNog]

@MrPJC101 Yes, albeit I had to look him up. He will do fine. Now, who shall we ask to be Zelda, Youngstar and Zelda's sister?? lol

[battywattywoo]

@RussinTirnaNog Don't know about Zelda; but Harry Enfield could be Yungstar, and Liz Smith would make a good Cystar.

[RussinTirnaNog]

@battywattywoo Yes yes, perfect I can see Liz Smith playing Cystar.  Harry is a great choice.

[RussinTirnaNog]

@battywattywoo How about Maggie Smith, Helen Mirran or Zoe Wanamaker for Zelda?

[battywattywoo]

@RussinTirnaNog They sound good. Alternatively, I'm not an Eastenders expert, but I've heard/read a few comments that there's a woman called Shirley in it, who apparently looks like Zelda.

[Remixor1]

Amazing, .. thanks for the post of this!

[edaw1982]

Stah'rowl awn!

[spfraggle]

With the Terrahawks theme, has anyone noticed that while the notes are different producing a completely different tune, the rythmn of the notes closely matches the Star Trek TNG theme? Just tap your fingers as the notes are played and you'll find them very similar

[mikecane2008]

It's incredible. The theme was actually GREAT but suffered from that cheap synth. What a shame.

[samtron1066]

@mikecane2008 Think that synth was used because the was indeed little or no money to make Terrahawks.I have read that Gerry Anderson wanted to use Derek Meddings(effects designer on Thunderbirds) to do the SFX on Terrahawks but was told "you cant afford him".He had forged a successful movie career doing the FX for the later James Bond films and Superman - The Movie

[ranma24601]

this is awesome, there is just something about hearing a classic tune played by a full orchestra. Thanks for posting this

[lilmissglentoran]

This rules!!

[stembuk]

Please, please, please could you upload the RPO version of The Champions?

[TimeForHouse]

@stembuk Hi. Yeah I'll Do it this weekend. I've been meaning to rip the whole lp and post it up. Cheers.

[TimeForHouse]

@stembuk Just noticed that The Champions is not actually on the record I have. There must be a part two or something. Sorry.

[roden81]

This is one of my favourite theme tunes!!!

[Standongaurd]

Hey man, I've dubbed this version of the theme over the original titles. Okay if I add it as a response?

[TimeForHouse]

@Standongaurd Hi there. yeah no worries. Fire away. :)

Cheers.

Ste. :)

[JayseWeaver]

Harry Partridge sent me here.

[NaviLight]

Awesome, I knew it was a great theme glad to hear it orchestrated.

[sonicchimp]

Orgasm for the ears!

[penninefilms]

Wow it is nice to hear this theme on a big orchestra.

[mocurio]

WOW! This is awesome! Who would think, that the royal philharmonic orchestra would play the theme of my No.1 tv show EVER? Thank you very much for uploading this audio/video. Awesome!

[hamblettamaud]

Thanks for uploading. I have been looking for all the tracks from "Images: 18 Beautiful Instrumentals" for ages (it has sentimental value for me). Some of these great instrumentals are just not available anyway - including a fantastic version of "Bridge Over Troubled Waters", "And I'm Telling You I'm Not Going", "Dynasty", "Memory" and others. Where did you get the mps for this album? I'd love to get a hold on them. But anyway, thanks so much for posting "Terrahawks". Brilliant!

[culttelevision]

Here's the original track listing for this:

1 America from "The Jazz Singer" 2 What a Feeling from "Flashdance" 3 Main Theme from the Thorn Birds 4 Greatest Love of All 5 Terms of Endearment 6 Woman in You from "Stayin' Alive" 7 All Time High from "Octopussy" 8 It Might Be You from "Tootsie" 9 Terrahawks 10 Dynasty from "Dynasty" 11 Main Theme from the Champions 12 Up Where We Belong from "An Officer and a Gentleman" 13 Loving Walter

14 Simon & Simon from "Simon & Simon"

15 Theme from Spy Ship

[TimeForHouse]

@culttelevision

Hi. Yeah, That's the LP I have. I bought it from a chap in Germany, via Discogs a few weeks ago. I was actually looking for the tv series version of the Terrahawks theme and I spotted the RPO version, and curiosity got the better of me, so I just bought this, and I'm quite glad I did. It's an excellent version. I might upload the rest of the tracks off the LP when I've got the time. Thanks. Ste. :)

[hamblettamaud]

@TimeForHouse PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE upload the rest of these track. I have been looking for mp3s for ages - since I was a child. I have the cassette but am not able to convert to mps. There are some fantastic tracks on this album not available anywhere - unbelievably. "Bridge Over Troubled Waters" is just fantastic and yet cannot be bought digitally anyway - and I've looked forever. Thanks for u/l of "Terrahawks". It's excellent.

[hamblettamaud]

@hamblettamaud So far as I know these tracks are not available to buy as mps anyway: up where we belong all time high memory woman and i'm telling you i'm not going dynasty you've lost that lovin' feeling loving walter all creatures great and small bridge over troubled water

[TimeForHouse]

@keda1981

No problems. Thanks.

I've now added a link to download the mp3 in the description. I originally ripped it from vinyl.

Thanks again. :)

[keda1981]

@TimeForHouse That's from vinyl??? The quality is fantastic! Have downloaded the mp3.

[johneddy98033]

I wonder who did the orchestration for the RPO's version in this clip?

[culttelevision]

@johneddy98033 Orchestration by the man himself: Richard Harvey - the composer who also arranged most of the other tracks on this LP (and CD in 86) which was originally on K-tel and called 'On Screen' . It was recorded in 1983. The Terrahawks OST was always written with an orchestra in mind, but they didn't have enough budget for a full orchestra to score the entire series so it went down the Fairlight and synthesizer route recorded by Harvey and engineered by Steve Rance (CEO of Fairlight US)

[Jorrigun]

I have looked sooooo long for this version of the theme.

Thanks so much for uploading it TimeForHouse!! :D

[TimeForHouse]

@Jorrigun

No problems. :)

I've added a link in the description, so you can download the mp3.

Thanks.

[Jorrigun]

@TimeForHouse
