this composition can only bring tears to my eyes because homer believes in something and the score truly embraces that fact....the sound LITERALY carries' a dream and as a composer myself i love mark ishams work here. i would love to meet him one day!
this song just makes me want to go back into the 1950s and go to coalwood and find these boys and journey through there incredible story with them makes me want to cry sad to see mrs riley die and homers dad die from black lung disease
You see, I'm a hardcore metalhead. But when I hear this, I can't help but cry like a baby. The cut into the space shuttle launch has to be one of the greatest moments ever in film. Masterpiece.
This is my favorite score of the whole movie, and this is my favorite movie of all time (does that make it my favorite score of all time?) .
Movie inspires me that i can do anything, that people cant stop you or hold you back, that you have to set your focus on the things bigger than this world and the people around you. teary every time.
@kabelcar1000 A great moment, and yes, after seeing Homer's dad come to the launch after all and trigger it, I finally pretty much lost it during the shot of Miss Riley watching the rocket soar.
This may be the most beautiful song to finish a movie ever written. When viewed with the images in the movie, I promise you that it will be one of the most memorable 5 minutes of a movie you have ever watched.

@golfingblue1 Yeah it's awesome. Make sure you check out the movie "Rudy," if you liked October Sky. It's awesome in the same way.
