This is one of Horner's very-best score pieces, so heavenly and beautiful, it's like art for the ears. To me, it is a truly sad shame he couldn't live long to score _Avatar 2,_ I have a sad feeling _A2_ 's score isn't gonna feel the same without him. ;( His score on _Avatar 1_ is one of the main reasons I still watch that movie.

It is exactly mathematical. It "dances" around chord groupings within the Circle of Fifths, relating only a few groups at a time for the feeling of resolution and then jumping into the next family of chords to create mystery and intensity. Music Theory tries to describe music in a mathematical way- it's all formulas. The Beetles knew this well and wrote hit song after hit song. Obviously other composers like Horner we're in tuned to Music Theory as well. Being humans of this universe, we take notice to music that aligns mathematically with the universe.

[@JustCauseMayhem]

I feel this song is perfect for somebody going through with bipolar. It kinda reminds me of the rush of thoughts the wild dreams and aspirations of the hypomanic. The ability the world is at your fingertips but also the feeling you can lose it all any second when they episode passes. It's hard to really quantify the emotional pychological physiological changes of the bipolar affected when certain sounds elicit an episode anything can trigger it. I'm sure some hypomanics are listening to this right now this is just a taste of what it's like. Everything coming easy to you the feeling of overwheling joy and overwhelming fear. Sorry it was a long wrant. Just writing from the soul.

[@LeahOxendine]

+Leah Oxendine Ur reply really speaks to me.

[@Just_a_name-m9d]

I am a diagnosed bipolar II... it makes sense what you are saying... perfect sense... in fact... nothing ever made more sense than the first minute of this piece... its like going out of your body and looking at it from atop... anyone who has experienced the pleasure and the on rush of uncontrollable emotions, images and thoughts in a hypomanic episode knows what i am talking about... no wonder bipolar was called "Divine Madness" in Greece. it is also the first thing you begin to miss when you go on treatment.. not the madness but the divinity.

[@pcheber]

So spot on. Brought me to tears. That is our cross to bear, isn't it? To live well and find peace in the face of extremes - joys, sorrows, frustrations...to keep our compasses set true to where we know we belong; sometimes impossible, sometimes effortless...

I cry without fail whenever i hear this song. It speaks to my mind so clearly. The rush of brilliance down a track and all your mind wants to do is go faster. You lose control and go straight off the rails. You fall off the cliff and then it all comes back. You are in the hospital wondering how you got there. You're fine for now, but you know it will come back. You are not cured. How can you control it?

Let this Beautiful mind's Beautiful Soul rests in peace...

This so perfectly encapsulates the brilliance of humans. We are terrible, evil beings that inflict pain on others and raze nature to the ground to spite our sense of discovery. But we also love knowledge and have many other great things to yet discover. We are almost childlike...innocent in that we demand the universe to bend to our will, we want to know all and experience all. We aren't satisfied with knowing that it is. We want to know why, explain it in our terms. The light bulb, the telephone, those very first words to Dr. Watson, the airplane, the moving picture, the jet engine, the spaceship, and all that those things are. They demonstrate how superbly amazing and wonderful the human species is, as well as our great potential to be so much more. This piece, especially from 0:35- 1:25, just makes me feel so happy and proud to be a human. Great things are to come still. That sense of wonder and innocent discovery is still imbued in many humans. That inherent sense of looking beyond and creating the future is what makes us human.
