  • His most beautiful piece ever has to be "Mary's Theme" from Mary Queen of Scots; however, I listen to his Bond soundtracks over and over again because "Mary's Theme" makes me weepy.

  • My favorites were "Somewhere in Time" and "Raise The Titanic" although I understand John never cared for the Titanic theme and didn't perform it when he did a concert.

    He leaves us a rich musical legacy to enjoy, but the music world is a lesser place without his presence. RIP John we will miss you and your wonderful creativity.

  • Out of his many beautiful scores, the music from "Frances" is my favorite. Rest in peace, Mr. Barry. You will be missed.

  • @ahha6304 I agree! His best Bond soundtrack!

  • I love him in OHMSS

  • One of the best film composers of all time. His music for "Walkabout" was amazing.
