Favourite music in Star Wars

John Williams was fantastic in every era but I think he peaked in the prequels. Duel of the Fates proves John Williams is secretly a Jedi Master of Music.

 

I agree. He built a name for himself with the OT and then just took off with the prequels. Not gonna lie, Anakin’s Dark Deeds is a musical masterpiece.

 

The chorus of Duel of the Fates still gets me every time. I heard it for the first time seeing TPM in theaters and I still remember that feeling I got when hearing it: unmistakably Star Wars but somehow more “raw” more “unknown” (if that makes any sense. john Williams had once described the melody as being from a “pagan”era.)
I also like the music in Solo. Qi’ra’s theme had a sweeping 1930s love-song that fits very well. Enfys Nest also has, like Duel of the Fates, that same “raw” different element from Duel of the Fates.
I like the frantic pacing of the Astroid Field song from TESB.
You might think I’m crazy, but I would like to have an actual song in a Star Wars film, yes, a pop tune, words and all. It can be something as simple as a song sung in a nightclub or bar (think of that part from Solo), but sung in “basic” (english.)

 

I'm also gonna go with Asteroid Field. Followed by Escape from Cloud City/Hyperspace and Imperial March.

 

10000000000000000000000000000000% the cantina band song, so good

2nd fav is "march of the empire"

 

If the mecca star wars medely counts then definately that

 

Love theme from ESB is mine, hands down. I remember my mum and dad buying the soundtrack for me for my birthday; played it full blast, bedroom windows open wide, all through the summer. Happy memories...
