[@countOfHenneberg]

All any movie needs is Arnold saying, "Crom!"

[@harpiyon]

I heard the soundtrack was finished first, and then the director filmed & edited the scenes to match the score. That's why there are so many scenes with little or no dialogue: The music transmits all the feelings on its own, all the pain, drama, adventure & suspense. This is an awesome approach to make a movie, usually it's done the other way round: They film & edit the scenes first, and only afterwards try to match the score "somehow" to fit it. This movie is pretty decent for its genre, but thanks to this awesome music it became a true masterpiece. Imagine if they'd used another music, e.g. 80s syth pop (like they did in another fantasy movie, "Ladyhawke"), it'd be awful. You can't give Basil Poledouris enough credit for his work: He made this movie work, kicked off Arnold's career (if this movie flopped, he'd probably not have become such a big super star), and kicked off an entire sub-genre, the 1980s "Barbarian" low fantasy movies, e.g. its sequel "Conan the Destroyer", "The Barbarians" or "Red Sonja" (which to me, is also an unofficial "Conan" sequel). It's a shame he didn't get an Oscar for this music.

My brother was killed at age 19, May 5, 2010. Had his funeral on May 10, 2010. Never got to visit his grave. I had joined the Navy (active duty) at that time and left for bootcamp on May 19, 2010. After graduating and going to my first command, I immediately entered a world that was unfamiliar and almost cruel-like, one I did not understand. The sounds of the ship I was stationed on, sound very much like this clip on the Wheel of Pain at 15:53, including the mindless work I did. I worked for days on end. The pain ebbed and flowed. I had good days and bad days. Was deployed 3 times. I thought of my poor parents who constantly worried that I would come home in a box. I had friends who died out to sea or elsewhere. Out of everything, my mind and determination to succeed and the will to live got even stronger. I had no time to grieve over my brother’s passing. No one cared, but I would not be broken. I persevered, rose through the ranks and overcame all. The answer to “The riddle of Steel” is not flesh or steel, but the power of the unbroken, indomitable spirit.

I think this soundtrack is actually of a higher level and significance than the movie it is attached to. And that is saying a lot, because the movie happens to be superb!

[@Nick-AngelpeodSeaxisc]

Have to agree, the movie was really good but the soundtrack is the best OST i have ever heard.

[@walterlangley9793]

Just think. Back in the day if they had motion pictures Bach and Mozart would be the ones doing the music, so we have modern day Mozarts etc. like Basil, we just don't think of them the same way.

[@eduardolimayung931]

I agree

[@aleksandarcvetkovic5436]

@Ramon Passolas True. Everything about movie is ok except Arnold. He showed only muscle side of Conan, but Conan is much more than that. His poor acting skills in early career days downgraded whole movie impression significantly.

[@pulsarlights2825]

The Soundtrack is way better...the movie has a major plot hole, how are we supposed to believe an ancient barbarian looks like a modern bodybuilder? Was there a Gold's Gym in Cimmeria? Did Conan have access to dianabol and testosterone in the Hyborean Age?

[@Wolfhound223]

Probably the best quailty version of this Score, all time Favourite!

[@mitchellwright8771]

Definitely

[@mitchellwright8771]

I have a hard labor job and this music has brought me raises as well as a 100% daily production rate. My bosses unknowingly refer to me as a barbarian for my wrk ethic lol. I have Basil to thank for it. Thank u and rest well mr. Poledoris

Only one with the - The Defilers

It is without doubt the best interpretation, with the composer conducting. One can quibble with technical aspects of the recording and performance, and focus on those aspects is what has led the shallow spiritless Prometheus release to unfortunately outstrip the original in popularity.

I play this in the background while I play Age of Conan: Unchained for PC while I play to get the full Conan effect. Great soundtrack. Love this movie as well. Thank you for putting this original score on YT. 😁👍

[@robertomariovieyra6804]

Música adecuada para el film. La escucho todo el tiempo. Los clásicos viajan a través de las épocas. Un Like de rubí.

[@Cletus_the_Elder]

This is Basil Poledouris's magnum opus in a single soundtrack. It puts his name just below John Williams. Brilliant composer. He mentions a daughter in a documentary who inspired a phrase for one of his themes. I hope the daughter Poledouris follows her father's path.

[@stereoplayers]

Don't forget Miklos Rozsa.

Bar none, the best score ever made for a movie.

[@RhondaGrey]

I will agree with you, but Dances with Wolves had a great sound track too.

[@messagekeenenivorywayansvo3011]

Brave heart soundtrack is also dope!

[@ed1pk]

Akira soundtrack is up there. 👍

[@robertcorbell1006]

30:57 is probably close to being my favorite track if I had to pick a favorite from what is arguably the best film score of all time. It's also what plays in my head whenever the word "theology" is said around me in a sentence.

[@annedonovan9005]

Agreed. One of the best scores ever.

[@f.mazz.459]

The Defilers @1:15:49 - "You." Powerful moment and only a single word spoken. Epic

[@D.u.d.e.r]

Honor, valor, strength, truth & justice! Absolute timeless masterpiece and I am listening to it for the first time! Maximum recognition and respect to Basil Poledouris and all who created and participated in Conan's legacy! Thank u for sharing this beautiful art!
