Going Musical

[tealin]

I think I have discovered the soundtrack for Going Postal.

Unfortunately it belongs to a movie already, and one that is fairly mainstream and stars Johnny Depp so it could never actually be used, but in the theatre of my mind I can watch Moist & Co cavort to the sneaky, playful, European strains of Chocolat.*

If you don't believe me, look up the track called 'Party Preparations' on iTunes or something and tell me that does not sound like Moist.

*Minus the Latin American-sounding bits, of course. They are delightful but they do not taste of cabbage.

I HAS A MAKING MONEY!!!!!
Moist has walked off with Drumknott's pencil. All is right with the world.

If it is enough to get sued over, it might be more than a snatch.

This article (http://www.musicfromthemovies.com/article.asp?ID=695) says everything I have to say on that particular matter, though I might add that the similarity of the Imperial theme(?) in Star Wars to 'Mars' was common knowledge to all the band geeks in high school. If you listen to the whole Planets suite, the influence on John Williams is blindingly obvious in nearly every movement.

Heh ... since John Williams has come up anyway - I recommend listening to Dvorak's New World Overture. Specifically the finale.

Oh yeah, and how is it that you've got Making Money and Amazon is stubbornly clinging to mine?! sigh ...

Pre-ordered it from an actual bookstore...
