"The Patriot" (Main theme) by John Williams

[@DanKeeleyMusic]

God I miss soundtracks like this. Movie soundtracks these days don't have melodic themes. This is intentional on their part, but I miss the great themes, and John Williams holds the title for most recognizable soundtracks of all time.

[@AJMurgo-ce1cp]

Sorry to jump into this comment so long after you posted it, but I completely agree. Movie soundtracks (to me at least) feel as if they are trending towards atmospheric and vague. Particularly Zimmer, who is everywhere these days. It’s not that I don’t enjoy them to some extent, but there’s something about a John Williams theme that’s simply irresistible. I’m sure some of that is my nostalgia speaking, but I feel it anyways.

[@DanKeeleyMusic]

@@AJMurgo-ce1cp Oh don't apologize. I couldn't agree more. I miss thematic melodies like this.

[@tristinnewton7371]

The Patriot's music is really very underrated...my brother and I are kind John Williams nuts, and we both heartily agree that this is really his best score.

[@MikeJohnson-yh4lg]

Little Chocolate Horse I like this score but for my money, his best score is BLACK SUNDAY (1977). Of course, has he ever done a bad score? Williams is a national treasure. I love that you and your brother are John Williams nuts, though.

I think sometimes we forget that 25,000 men gave their lives for a nation that they would never live to see. These men did what was considered wrong, in order to do what they knew was right. And they did it for posterity. So that we as Americans may live in a world where a man/woman is treated like a person and not a subject/serf to a ruler/tyrant. I'm very proud to say that I am a descendant of an American Revolutionary Solider who served under Francis Marion in the Palmetto Brigade.

[@jack-n-the-bots2926]

+Evan Demas Very well said, Evan. I am also a descendant of Revolutionary War soldiers, Henry Lee III "Light Horse" Lee, the ninth Governor of Virginia, among others. They were great people and I think of them often

[@gaiusbaltar4850]

+Evan Demas I'm sorry, I think you're a bit naive here. They did what they did for themselves and for those they loved. In the end, most of them are just numbers, for which posterity is a mere consolation prize. All of them, they died without even knowing how life would treat their loved ones. Sick. They're not heroes. They're victims of their time. They are just like you and me. And thus we are just like them.

[@dookeland8]

What comes to mind when i hear this song is the last line in the Declaration of Independence "We mutually pledge to each other; our lives, our fortunes and our sacred honor." this line defined those 56 gallant men who met in the summer of 1776 in Philadelphia. I'd like for everyone to take a minute while listening to this song and close your eyes and dwell on that line, and think about what that line meant to those 56, think of how that line sealed a pact between the living, the dead and the unborn. From that document was born freedom and from the sacrifices those men made by living up to that pledge think how freedom was born because freedom was more important to those men than the security they had.

[@MrPjw5]

I mean, it's not like they got everything wrong. The period clothing was accurate down to the last stitch; the costume designers even got a seal of approval from the Smithsonian Institution. The movie did, however, get more than a few social conventions of the day wrong, including attitudes towards African slaves and woman. It also suffers from the crime of demonizing the British to the point of making them seem as bad as the Nazis. Also, several of the characters were hybridizations of popular figures from the American Revolution. Benjamin Martin, for example, is a blend of Francis Marion, Nathaniel Greene, and Ethan Allen; Col. Tavington is based on Bannister Tarleton; Major Jean Villaneuve is a mixture of the Marquis de Lafayette and Baron von Steuben.

I'm also a fan of an opening titles track that includes most of the major themes together, as this rarely seems to be the case. My favorite segment is actually the minor section from 0:45 to 1:25, as it goes off and returns so beautifully. And it's hard to not to love the fifes/piccolos at 2:51.

Steve Rogers The war between Britain and the US may technically not be over yet. Here in Australia, we are split 55/45 between those who wish to remain a constitutional monarch under Britain and those who would like to cut the cord and become a republic. A civil war in Australia over the issue is highly unlikely, it would most probably end up a referendum, similar to Scotland's recent referendum to remain part of UK. My question to you as an American (I assume you're American), what would the US do if a civil war did just so happen to break out in Australia over the issue? As America is the world's policemen and you involve yourselves into everyone's conflicts (not a bad thing), would America betray your closest ally Britain and side with the republican movement in Australia, side with the monarchists on Britain's behalf, or just stay out of the war? Let's say the US sides with the republican movement and angers not just Britain, but also Canada? How will the US cope with the loss of such allies? What if France gets involved and sides with the US with the aim of separating Quebec from British Canada? Would we have a complete Napoleon style war?

JohnnyThe1 as long as no us citizens are killed, I really don't give a shit. But we are allied to the current government of Australia, meaning we are obligated to side with the Australian govt if they wanted assistance.

The score to The Patriot lifts me like no other John Williams score does, except maybe Superman.

[@ElGatodelasWeeeklyKpop]

Que belleza de melodía :')

Im a 'Brit" so I do have issues with "Historical accuracy" BUT.. Its the spirit of the story that makes it a good film. Im proud of those Yankies, they stood up for their rights while we Englanders were being trampled on at home and sacrificing our people in a futile war. Great score. Thanks for sharing.

[@CRUNCHYYRAPSUPREME]

[@Floridagator6]

The moment I recognized it was one of the most beautiful moments ever!

[@joshedwards2798]

Most Americans forget that the Revolution was a bloody civil war. Its a bitter sweet moment for my family who had members on both sides of the war. Im greatful to all three of my ancestors and pray that what put 3 brothers against each other has brought them back together in heaven

[@koreyfackler8829]

[@ricus0649]

My favorite score from Master John Williams. What a melody ! And by the way, it's saving the picture.

[@doggonelucky98]

LOVE this soundtrack! John Williams is a genius. Thanks for uploading!

[@erictong3488]

There should be more movies about the Revolutionary War! We get so many movies about WW2 and Vietnam but the American Revolution is often overlooked by Hollywood (along with the Korean War and and the Mexican War).

[@musical_merri]

Eric Tong I totally agree 100%. Why won’t Hollywood do it! I feel like they think it would offend too many people bc of all the “politically incorrect” things that a Revolutionary War movie would present.

[@annamay2921]

This is beautiful.

[@lajos87]

Not only beautiful,it's wonderful.

[@nickloyal344]

John Williams the master of modern soundtracks...the patriot is by far one of his best. I love his extensive use of the brass section of the orchestra. For God, America, and freedom...

[@sriparno1146]
