This occurred to me when I came home after seeing the movie, and was listening to Hans ZImmer's score. I'm not saying the cues we hear in the movie are slowed down. Zimmer appears to be using Piaf's song as a foundation for extrapolation. This phenomenon may be obvious to a lot of you out there, but this video serves as a way for people to hear them side by side and to visualize and understand what Zimmer is doing with the score.

I think the score is terrific.

  • I've seen this before but Song within a song = Songception

  • It's a song within a song.

    OH GOD MY HEA- *guts flying around*

  • @HalfTimesTwo Yeah, except we're talking about dreams. When you fall asleep and don't have any dream, it feels incredibly fast because you're basically blacked out. If you have a dream, you have the illusion of complete consciousness and so it feels like real time. That's the notion they're playing with. Apparently you dream in the 10min or so before you wake up. I don't know if music actually slows down in your sleep. This is how they're representing it though, which is clever.

  • Hans Zimmer Ftw!!

  • @emin777 Yeah I definitely get it. :) I'll fall asleep for what feels like 10 minutes and I'll wake up an hour later. Makes sense!

  • @HalfTimesTwo Yes. Taking the fact that, things happen much slower in dreams than in reality (1 min in reality equals 6 minute or so in dreams). Therefore, if you listened to a 10 sec portion of music in reality it would equal to 1 min in a dream, more like stretched or slowed down version of original. I hope I could explain it 

  • @emin777 Is that true? Does music really sound slower in dreams?

  • Damn, that perfectly makes sense. The music in reality would sound much slower in dreams. Well spotted !

  • @FakeSmileClown WHAT ABOUT YUSUF?! HE'S A PART OF THIS TEAM TOO! T_T
