  • S.P.E.C.T.R.E

  • Listen to '007 and Counting' from the Diamonds are Forever soundtrack to hear the similarities between the two tracks.

  • Wow great job with visuals to this score..Please, why you disable embedding on this video? This belongs on my mixpod playlist!

  • this song makes me feel like i have to destroy a secret soviet weapon in thier sattelite nations and the regular forces spetsnaz kgb are everywhere

  • I don't think that it's today generation of movie goer's who dislike a meaningful orchestral score - how could they? They hardly ever get a chance to hear one these days. No, the fault lies with lazy and out of touch marketing executives. They pepper today's films with music that they THINK the public would like to hear. Couple to that, the incessant pressure to provide a hit album and it is little wonder that the current generation have all but stopped collecting film scores.

  • @MsIrma007 All the good film composers aren't active anymore.

  • once again, who ever that 1 dislike belonged to, they must be a douche-fag........

    i think its called the " if you don't like this song, get the fuck off of youtube!" button.

    if you don't know where that is, it's left of the "SHUT THE HELL UP!" button, right next to the "MIGHTY FAG" switch, and below of the "FUCK YOU!" key......

  • my favourite song after friday....

  • If there was ever a more beautiful piece of music to capture the essence of space (and remember this was 1967!) then i would like to hear it...........god bless you John

  • @raiderdan05 absolutely! It captures it so perfectly. 2:07 it stops. And then the haunting melody starts again, as if to go on forever into space...

  • I love it how Mr. Barry, even though always using his classic Bond style, never created themes that were too similar to each other. He made each movie's atmosphere unique. Just listen to "Dawn Raid on Fort Knox" from Goldfinger, the underwater themes of "Thunderball", "Mountains and Sunsets" from You Only Live Twice, "Flight into Space" from Moonraker etc. Modern movies just simply lack the mystique and beauty with which he colored the classic Bond films.

    R.I.P. John Barry

  • @PeyserConley Well said, John Barry's fantastic music contributed hugely to the atmosphere of so many films. Imagine the earlier Bond films without his magical music.?! I can think of no other composer who comes close to matching Barry. His music stimulates the imagination, and captures the mood & atmosphere of each film, each scene perfectly. EVERY John Barry is my favorite! We have lost a true genius :(

  • So brilliant. Such a one off. Strings that melt the heart

  • Of course it's not what "today's generation movie-goers don't appreciate" that matters to hollywood's MBA accountant-executives. Their laziness when it comes to this is appalling, and subjects all of us to the equivalent of Greatest Hits compilations by established artists during films, instead of music that actually has something to do with what is happening on screen. Rant over.

  • I think this is one of my favourite John Barry Pieces. RIP Mr Barry you will be missed. Condolences to his friends and family.

  • Love this piece, they always use it on Top Gear for the special impressive builds

  • ACEN TRIP TO THE MOON PART2...OR PART1?

  • @xambius0 I seriously found this song because of that, I didn't actually recognize it from JB :( haha.

  • @xambius0 part1

  • I heard this music first on an episode of Top Gear, before I'd even seen You Only Live Twice. It is a testament to its true 'Bond-ness' that I instantly knew it must be from a Bond film - those brassy trumpets really give away its Barry genesis.

  • Brilliant!!

  • Hawaii to Jupiter 16...Hawaii to Jupiter 16...

  • GREAT JOHN BARRY !!

  • One of those ultra goose bumbs song from JB, when the harp starts at 0:30.

  • hey, can somebody please send me the mp3 of this song?

  • @mastaace604 sure what's your email?

  • sends chills down my spine, amazing piece

  • If you make any more films for james bond, you have to have music of this nature. Listen to us. It makes the film.

  • I'm having this tune at my funeral. A bloody epic piece of music.

  • The scores of the James Bond compared to any film give much better, especially those made by John Barry.

  • heard this on top gear s14e03 now this track is in my head all the time....

  • @mastergsan hahahah, i also heard it on top gear but in s9e04

  • The most sinister thing I have ever heard

  • @CharlieHOY that's interesting, I find it very relaxing!! I have it in my chiller cabinet collection :-)

  • Classic Bond.

  • This is the kind of incidental music that made the Connery and some Moore Bond films great. We don't hear this beautiful orchestral music in today's Bond films because 1) John Barry's masterful soundtracks are no more and 2) much of today's generation movie-goers don't apprciate this type of music, but prefer that Jack White/Alicia Keys rap trash.

  • Lay off of Jack White.

    The real enemy is Hans Zimmer and Remote Control Productions.

  • Agreed. Don't forget David Arnold.

    Another talentless hack.

  • well i am "today's movie goers" but i appreciate this type of music but also think Hans Zimmer is great. The score for North By Northwest is by far one of the most intense ever.

  • Because you are obviously a person of good taste and intelligence, yet composers today create an abundance of classless music because that is what much of today's generation wants...or they wouldn't continue composing such trash. Notice in my email below, I said said "much" of today's generation, not all of it.

  • well i am also in my hs jazz and concert band and have played the trombone since i was 9 so that may help :) good day sir

  • agreed

  • To be fair, if someone asks you to do a bond theme, you do it. regardless

  • I'm 14, but I love this kind of music. I'd wish they'd make some music in this style for the newer movies.

  • @TheKillCommander - You obviously have great taste and appreciation for quality music. You see, during the 1960s, music was the centerpiece for emotions in films. Today,films reply on special effects, not music. I prefer music over special effects any day, any time.

  • @DangerouslyYours i actually think that "night at the opera" from quantum of solace is an alright throwback to john barry style bond music. I do agree that these older soundtracks were better, but the two daniel craig movies are trying as hard as possible!

  • @DangerouslyYours i disagree moviegoers still like this kind of music..but the very nature of this kind of score music is easily unnoticed and dominated by the visual on screen this was the goal of score music in pre-mtv movie days..the score was not supposed to upstage film scene. That changed when MTV started producing film..some movies are now made almost purposely inferior to the score. I find that I prefer movies with scores like this. I guess i too watch for the score.

  • yes this is my second life

  • To listen in STEREO, add &fmt=18 to URL.

  • This was sampled by rave genius Acen in his Trip II the Moon Part 2.

  • Actually my mistake, it's in Trip II the Moon Part 1.

  • this is such a fantastic piece of music, John Barry at his most outstanding best.

  • The music is from You Only Live Twice not Moonraker.

  • sounds verry epic , can u upload that elswhere for me , got only the one out from the original movie , and there are to many backrounds noises

  • John Barry. One of the greatest musical

    genuises.

    And one of the "spaciest" themes ever written!

    Listen to Ladytron's "17" and see if they

    didn't borrow from this!

    And actually, "You Only Live Twice's"

    "Capsule in Space" is 80% of this song...

  • Great piece. But it's not from Moonraker but from You Only Live Twice.

  • Thanks so much for posting this piece. Great!!
