    A very good score, though I already bought it once (download) so don't think I'll take the plunge for the CD.

    yeah

    Had the great pleasure of seeing him in concert in London last night. A genius in his field.

    Anyway, it was his songs, not film music; but he did include a plot summary of Toy Story. "The film managed to be a success even though they talked over my music... there's a cowboy and he's great but then he's sad because a spaceman comes along... then there's part of the film I've never bothered to see because there's no music in it... then you come back and the spaceman's drinking and wearing a dress because he finds out he's only a toy... then they all go off in a rocket and it's like a John Williams movie and I wrote this thing that's like Bruckner or Mahler, only shittier, and then it's Christmas and everyone's happy."

    In one song he failed to hold a long note and at the end said "You know, the same thing happened once at a show I did in LA. I couldn't hold that note. But in the middle of it when my voice was breaking I heard this jerk in the audience start laughing. I looked up and it was my son. Not a great moment for me."

    In a Cars 3 interview, he said "Sometimes I wish I could get a big romantic drama with Jessica Chastain looking into the distance for 20 or 30 seconds. But I get cars going round the track."
  2. I would love to hear him score a big romantic drama with Jessica Chastain looking into the distance! His comment does seem a little like biting the hand that feeds you, though.

  3. Great review. I just found this score so refreshing. Even though it's a familiar sound, that sound hasn't been heard in animation for a few years and I didn't realize how much I missed it until I heard it again.
  4. My review of CARS 3, for anyone who's interested:
