Ori and the Blind Forest has a great one.
Others I listen to are emotionally powerful, but not exactly generating simple happiness. Even Ori’s are sometimes dark but other times just beautiful.
Halo always manages to bring me back from wherever im headed
Can you briefly explain me what Halo is
You play John Halo, AKA Masterchef and you have to shoot aliens while a sexy-alexa talks sarcastically to you
Probably Howard Shore’s LotR score. Prologue, Concerning Hobbits, A Shortcut to Mushrooms, Khazad-Dûm, The Caverns of Isengard, The Road Goes Ever On, Edoras, Return to Edoras, Eyes of the White Tower… they’re all bangers.
(Edit: Can’t BELIEVE I forgot “The Ring Goes South!”)
I also really like Alan Silvestri’s stuff, particularly his Back to the Future work and his Avengers theme.
My wife and I also have this super fun game we play called “is it Gladiator or is it Pirates?” because Klaus Bedelt was Hans Zimmer’s protege when they needed a composer for the first Pirates movie, and he heavily borrowed from Zimmer. Anyway, those are good soundtracks, too.
I get to sing in a live performance of the Fellowship soundtrack this fall. The movie will play on a projector, the symphony and chorus will perform the soundtrack.
I’ve done this before for The Two Towers and Return of the King, over a decade ago. This year I get to complete the set!
Whoa. I’ve attended a live performance of a soundtrack with the movie playing overhead (Back to the Future, actually), and it’s a fantastic experience. I would imagine actually performing it would be even better.
Are the lyrics on your music written in Sindarin (I mean anglicized Sindarin, not actually Sindarin script), or are they spelled out phonetically?
Everything is spelled out phonetically, but you can bet I was nerdy enough to correct our chorus master when she said we were singing in Orcish and it was actually Dwarvish.
Nice. That’s a level of nerdery we should all aspire to.
On days when a spring cleaning or packing and organizing frenzy is needed, the Katamari Damacy sound track is perfect. Nice continuity of themes, but varying tempos and energy help make a sustainable work session.
If, God forbid, I ever end up with dementia or whatever, I expect that the music from Green Hill Zone will be the last tune I ever recognise.

Anno doesnt chear me up but it is such a nice music to have in the background
Kirby - Gourmet Race
Rocky’s OST makes me feel many feelings!
Cowboy Bebop for me. TANK! is obviously great, but it’s got so many other bangers in there. Pushing The Sky and What Planet Is This both slap so gd hard
Shuld i watch the show?

Without a doubt, yeah. Beside the goated ost, it’s one of the most impacting moments in its mediums history for good reason, and it holds up very surprisingly well compared to the vast majority of its contemporaries. Nothing else hits quite like Bebop, and you, my friend, are in for a real treat with this one.
Katamari Damacy
It’s so infectiously happy and upbeat!
Let’s clump up to be a single star in sky…
Recently kpop demon hunters, just because my kids love it and the music is poopy, infectious and inoffensive
In the past, the Lion King was the one for me. Great lyrics and some fun songs.
Pulp fiction did it for me as a teen. I think everyone had the ost on cd. It was also 18s rated, so the movie was less accessible or acceptable for a young teen. The excerpts from scenes were super quotable.
Oh, and daft punks song album for trin was great. The movie was like a giant music video.
