Moonraker - Flight Into Space

[@NigelRudyard]

My favourite Bond film - Sir Roger made Bond fun and entertaining. RIP. What a soundtrack.

[@rdjhardy]

👍🏻👍🏻 Second Bond I saw in the cinema. I am always fond of it too.

[@MaxPaynejkop]

Yes.

[@rollercoastertoaster]

I watched Skyfall again tonight and one thing I thought of when it had ended was "man, I really miss John Barry". One of my all time favourite film composers. He was so epic. As cheesy as some people think Moonraker was, I actually think it's such a fun, entertaining film and Mr Barry's score elevates it to another level.

[@Mirage_Mach5]

This score does so much to encompass the wonder and mystery of space, and it succeeds a hundred times over!! This score is so good that it could have been used in the film, "Interstellar." Not taking anything away from Hans Zimmer, but this piece of music is too awesome for words. RIP Mr. John Barry. You are greatly missed, sir.

[@blahhh0902]

You are so right thats funny the same though goes thru my mind when I hear this everytime I watch moonraker, Barrymore also did the blackhole movie soundtrack from 79 another example of genius composing

[@dansky9674]

Yeah, 2:14 reminds me Interstellar's docking scene

[@merquryj]

A hundred times over💯

[@Cola.Cube.]

A big reprise to capsule in space from You only live twice in fairness. Mr Bond.

[@ralf-richardhartmann3718]

So true-magnificent comment!!!-☻🌐

[@f.herumusu8341]

John Barry (1933-2011): Brass and Woodwinds will never again sound that warm.

[@PistonDriven]

Under-appreciated comment, if ever...

[@shanecagney7451]

Barry got into Brass when he was doing his National Service in the Army.

[@nicholasjanke3476]

Thunderball, On Her Majesty's Secret Service, The Spy Who Loved Me, Moonraker, Tomorrow Never Dies-the James Bond epics

[@asch7906]

RIP Sir Roger Moore. Now you have left for the stars.

[@lordhapuokami5488]

Yes, R.I.P. Sir Roger Moore. But, Roger Moore did not make the music. His job was to look good in front of the camera, for her majesty's government.

[@clincpb8903]

Roger Moore was and will always be my favourite James Bond.

[@DIMP11]

And has John Barry

[@d.fortner6653]

Now Sean Connery

[@stuartmorris6299]

Naturally

[@MrPreshita]

Taking a Bond movie to this level of John Barryness is not going to happen again. Make sure the coming generations don't miss out on this one

[@90lancaster]

My Favourite bit is when Jaws speaks so unexpected. and oddly romantic when he does.

[@19keel25]

As an impatient 14 yo space fan ( in 1979 awaiting the STS program to get underway), I remember going to see this with my friends & being AWESTRUCK watching these later scenes in the movie. Definitely wouldn't have been the same without Barry's AWESOME score!!

[@alphasignal5]

RIP John Barry. Absolute legend, immortalised through his beautiful music.

[@davidclark2618]

I've always noticed, and I've seen no-one else comment on it (forgive me if you have and I missed it...), but the movie has an additional 15 seconds of music that starts at 5:29 that is not in the commercially released track. It's a great 15 seconds too!

[@WeAtG17]

This recording isn't the film version - the soundtrack CD/LP programme was re-recorded by Barry after the film was scored. There are noticeable differences in several key cues, particularly 'Corinne Put Down', where the film version has a much greater focus on the piano as opposed to the soundtrack album. Fingers crossed we'll get the full film versions released one day!

[@kevskigolf]

the music from Moonraker and especially this epic piece is just unreal. John Barry was just at the very top of his game for this film. The entire soundtrack is just an master at work.

[@TheT3rr0rMask]

Honestly Moonraker is Barry's best work on Bond. I get goosebumps very time I listen

[@fargofantom6854]

It sure is! My favorite part is the trumpet solo at 3:19.

[@manuelthompson007]

Totally agree... same happens to me no matter how many times I hear it... a masterpiece

[@Astrodomania]

I completely agree....I watch this movie repeatedly, just for the soundtrack!

[@ofenfilmproduktion3864]

Obscure Media Together with the soundtrack of „The black hole“.

[@michaelseebach9090]

My favorite part is from 1:45 to 2:14. In the film, Bond says something like "This operation is like Noah's Ark" and you begin to realize that Drax is about to kill all the people on earth... goosebumps

[@epbski]

John Barry is easily one of the top 5 greatest film composers of all time. I would personally put him in the top 3, in fact. Only a genius like Barry could take the most silly and outlandish Bond plot and have the scenes still bring me to tears because of how beautiful and profound the music in them is.

[@babalufinho]

This is one of the best James Bond soundtracks in my opinion. The part at 2:13 always reminds me how tense this scene is, it always brings me very good memories from watching this great movie as a kid. JB is a legend, and so are Roger Moore and John Barry. RIP

[@andycooper3612]

2:13 has such a sense of eurgancy, and impending unstoppable doom

[@MaxPaynejkop]

You Only live twice.

[@teleaddict23]

Roger Moore and John Barry represent a fantastic era of Bond movies that we will never see again

[@davesmith-rs1yo]

I love moonraker, its scope, atmosphere and mystery never let me down, as a child watching it for the first time my mother said I never blinked or moved for the entire film! Its pure magic. If I'm ever in a dull situation I just relive this wonderful scene in my mind and ,m away again!!! X

[@bagg10101]

Absolute genius!! Listening to this makes me realize just how simple, loud and souless many soundtracks are today.

[@stevetheduck1425]

- and how few even attempt a theme... just amazes me.

[@joeneadley3354]

Say what you want about the film but this music is sensational

[@mvp822]

My favorite part: 1:44. "And the animals went in two by two."

[@TheShockninja]

Noah's Ark; this whole operation

[@MAnuscript421]

And the way the music hits it as the sun rises over the crest of the Earth and the silhouette of the space shuttle.

[@johnhogan5439]

Another great british actor sadly lost RIP sir Roger you are the best.

[@stephenmartin2737]

One of my favourite childhood james bond movies, made even better with this amazing soundtrack , thankyou john Barry , Roger Moore, Richard kiel and Michael Lonsdale RIP

[@photonspark]

"Well, here's to us." Jawz 1979

[@ObsessedCollector]

Love this film! Early example of the shuttle program too. So different from the book, but a great change of pace. RIP Sir Roger Moore

[@mrbain123]

I was listening to this song this morning on my ipod while having two fillings at the dentist. It makes the experience MUCH nicer :)

[@MrSOLOPIANIST]

Music to get your teeth into 😂

[@MrSOLOPIANIST]

To say nothing of JAWS 😂

[@miggv8778]

only with good soundtracks you feel the old rinkle down your backspine again, like you only had when you were still a kid sitting on the carpet, watching at your favorite movie.

[@JayB-JayB]

Thank you so much John Barry.

[@waynealexander1615]

John Barry was one of the great monumental film composers along with Bernard Hermann. Their scores sent chills up your spine and were thrilling and inspiring.

[@boneeatingsilicate580]

I remember loving 'Capsule in Space' from You Only Live Twice, then this comes along....

[@KaptinKilla]

Dispite Moonraker being a rediculous film in my eye, this piece is always my light at the end of the tunnel. If you turned on the television and saw the scene where this music is played, you would think you were watching the lost third Space Odyssey movie... and then Roger reappears and you're like, "Ha!"

[@Tommykey07]

Buried in Moonraker is a really good science fiction movie if it wasn't a campy Bond flick. When you have uber wealthy people like Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk with aspirations to expand into space, the idea of a rich industrialist building a space station and using it aa a means to exercise dominion over the Earth isn't so far fetched anymore.

[@stateone2011]

stunning music....unsurpassed.

[@cygnus1129]

This is an epic song to listen to while observing Jupiter..

[@Carl-LaFong1618]

Cygnus Array 12 or Uranus.

[@Tommykey07]

The score is probably the best thing about the movie. My favorite part is the reveal of the space station.

[@Tunkbr]

Probably the best song i've ever heard in a Bond movie. The part from 5:29 to 5:59 is absolutely amazing. I get an unexplainable feeling when i hear it. "Bond Lured Into Pyramids " is another beautiful song from Moonraker.

[@vincentcassel1575]

Yes. Among older bonds, this one is my favourite.

[@The_Daily_Tomato]

Peronally i think Moonraker was the most daring bond movie, making major space sceene in those time was not an easy job but i love it.

[@AgentXnine]

My all time favorite track from the James Bond-movies! John Barry, God Bless His Soul, could really make sensitive space music... Now he creates from above.

[@MrSOLOPIANIST]

As Above ... So Below ... 😁

[@kanyewestlive6905]

Quite possibly the most epic musical portrayal of the final frontier ever!

[@gdg5186]

Chopsocky Chowdown Yes, quite possibly. I cannot praise this score highly enough. There is a real depth to this music.

[@gdg5186]

Chopsocky Chowdown Yes, quite possibly. I cannot praise this score highly enough. There is a real depth to this music.

[@igorflexus9493]

+Josh Baker (JoJoeFilms) It is huge! Even used in a documentary about NASA. OMG I love the movie and the music!

[@JimStinson]

Love this. My favorite Bond film, and first seen in theater. I was dazzled by the space stuff, and all the beautiful women.

[@kyletitterton]

Astonishing, incredible piece of music. Gives me goosebumps every time I hear it.

[@jenoreich8385]

Very epic song. This 6 minutes contains little standalone masterpieces bound together by the main theme. There is something gentleness and harmony in the accords. It is free from overkilled fanfares compared to other hyped space themes. In some cases I think the fanfares are actually there for hiding lack of creative ideas . And Mr Barry did not need fanfares and overthriumphing motives.

[@jonwhittall]

Ennio Morricconne, John Williams and John Barry. Masters of their trade.

[@sardanaphalus]

The music as Bond follows the girl to the Aztec(?) temple hideout is pretty amazing too...

[@99barrywhite]

Fantastic music. Big shout to Dr Goodhead hehe

[@lokoumi]

This score is fantastic. Talk about epic music. Moonraker - pride of place in my Bond DVD collection.

[@linearskater]

This score & Derek Meddings model work are superb & the high lights & true stars of this film.

[@chrischeshire6528]

and this was about a year before the shuttle flew...they did a good job making it look real.

[@RMJ1984]

4:25 this part and forward, gives me absolute chills. It's almost too good.. Damn.

[@igorflexus9493]

I met Roger Moore. That was magic and very funny! Something I will never forget!

[@hugodrax9211]

"And the animals came in two by two"

[@MaxPaynejkop]

Yes mr drax.

[@petekwando]

A review/reassessment of Moonraker reminded me of how amazing this soundtrack is. Some of Barry's best work on the franchise for certain.

[@danielbuxton4493]

Simply incredible.

[@lewiswilliam10]

from 4.25 when the trumpets start a complete changed of tune, love it.

[@jasonritchie8475]

The trombones, and cornets as well. Fabulous

[@shane-irish]

Best part indeed

[@Kaiserwhosay]

ahhh my 1st cinema Bond!!!! god this soundtrack is Fantastic.. thanks and RIP John Barry

[@Hirotoro4692]

I came to this video just to say this is one of the most wonderful and astonishing songs I've ever heard.

[@severledelreves881]

R.I.P. Sir Roger Moore (1927-2017)

[@The670533]

"A genuine Faberge egg." My favourite Moore Bond line.

[@sandrawinkler7749]

der Beste James Bond Film aller zeiten ich habe nur den auf DVD mir Gekauft

[@teleaddict23]

No music score nowadays gets me like this one does.

[@logandarklighter]

RIP John Barry and Roger Moore. You were both exquisite gentlemen and tops in your respective professions.

[@UBZUKki]

Awe inspiring, Stunning, HUGE sounding score capturing that expansive essence of space.....From 4:24 especially.....Beautiful....

[@1100defender]

Simply fantastic

[@officialpierluk]

so epic, the most beautiful and powerfull track on any james bond movie, my favorite!

[@davebrucelee2011]

thankyou john barry for your great bond music

[@elgatonativodigital3954]

Moonraker 💕

[@asch7906]

RIP Richard Kiel

[@postersandstuff]

Not just a "Bond actor" but virtually a "Bond icon" !

[@john-007files5]

RIP richard kiel.. you used to scare me when i was a kid - well done :)

[@yuljohnson5502]

Richard keil was one fine actor,superb physical specimen to play an iconic villian like Jaws and even more superb acting ability!!!! One of my favorite actors!!!

[@deuce7643]

Totally regret not meeting Richard Kiel. He was at a horror/sci-fi convention the year before he passed. He - was my favorite villain in the 007 series

[@jamesbyrne9312]

She was beautiful

[@alistairuysal1858]

Epic soundtrack.

[@Janderson_Bitfinger]

My Second favorit 007movie, Very good and beautiful music.

[@Skelex20]

I was sad when it ended. Pure genius.

[@jarvisgarvin1540]

Hypnotic masterpiece. This part is my favorite,I think of this everytime I watch The Incredibles.

[@nova423]

I’m just discovering these epic Bond soundtracks, I had no idea they were this good! This track is my new favorite!

[@Sh4h33d]

The poster @ 0:10.... haha !!! 007 has so many talents, getting hip with the chicks, getting out of trouble and err...... breathing in space!!! Nice one!!!

[@Gazzjones180]

wonderful score

[@MrChicago103]

Amazing piece of music, one of the best in the entire James Bond series. The movie itself if also amazing and would defend it against its critics.

[@Nikodemisremus]

Brilliant song, brilliant movie, brilliant actors and a brilliant Bond!!!

[@clincpb8903]

I wonder when movies and music of this kind will come back ?

[@bricharloe4337]

John Barry elevates my soul. A MUSICAL GENIOUS!

[@JimGall]

This track has a real majesty about it. Something sorely lacking in modern Bond films.

[@DarthCipient]

Pure genius.

[@namelessjedi2242]

My favorite Bond, a big reason being the fantastic score.

[@olivier671988]

never gets old

[@walterkehl2535]

Yes, this is just timeless :-)

[@fargofantom6854]

John Barry was a great composer!

[@kwijibo33]

R.i.p. Sir Roger Moore - 007. may your soul fly to the space.

[@roguetrader1983]

2.14....goosebumps. Just don't get that nowadays even from Zimmer.

[@TheInflicted]

@@jmack8767 The problem with Zimmer is that the music he and his trainees produce is very frequently synthesized with prerecorded orchestral sounds. The old Barry soundtracks are true performances, and often recorded so quickly and with so few takes that you can hear the mistakes by the performers. There's so much more humanity and warmth in the old music.

[@sgtdanny69148]

Steady..........

[@Multi1628]

~ This soundtrack holds up much better in 2017 in its entirety, than does the 1979 film. Love also Dame Shirley, & R.I.P. Sir Roger Moore. Thank you for posting this ~ Cheers, DAVEDJ ~

[@stevanwarburton5501]

It ha now brought me to tears...

[@universalexports777]

Wonderful,unfogettable piece of music-John Barry was the greatest composer ever!

[@OttoNilssonMusic]

1:35, that counter melody in the cellos and horns is just exquisite! =D

[@JordanMccaff]

1:44 nice to see where the score for The Beach got its inspiration. Both beautiful pieces, both completely different vibes

[@Travis_22]

Yes agreed!

Best 007 score

[@rishonsaeroon]

John Barry was and still the best we will miss the Master R.I.P

[@bigh210670]

If it wasn't the fact that I am such a Bond and John Barry fan if I heard this for the first time this could be up there with some of the greatest pieces of classical music ever composed along with Beethoven, Mozart and Handel

[@RussellEmanuel]

John Barry is so amazing!

[@RussellEmanuel]

I do miss him

[@captainbimble]

There was only one John Barry.

[@meratiusloche1493]

The Build up ending with Choir is like Angels in the Final Frontier❤️🔥 Amazing & best Space theme ever❤️🔥 RIP JOHN BARRY

[@josephbevan96]

in my opinion music makes a film and this piece is quite possibly one of the most beautiful pieces that has ever been composed! RIP John Barry

[@andrepeoples2079]

The only James Bond flick set outter space. That's why Moonraker my all time JB film

[@keysersoze375]

Sir Roger Moore,Sir Sean Connery rip..Sir John Barry impeccable combo acting cliches and impressive musical scores

[@paulyauley5593]

That choral bit towards the end gets me every time 😮
