Exactly what I was about to post. It's a great piece by John Murphy but for the love of <insert name of deity> give it a break already.

It really is a cheap way of stirring up emotions and I doubt the film will be good enough to earn that kind of response in any case.

BTW I noticed Matthew Vaugh's credit there, he used Murphy in Kick Ass so he may have had a say.

^Right composer, wrong score. The first track is from Hans Zimmer's score for 'The Thin Red Line'. The second (vi IV I iii/vii) is from John Murphy's score for 'Sunshine'.

But Sunshine was a crappy film, while Kick-Ass was awesome!
Also,, John Murphy redid the music for Kick-Ass, as you can hear that this version is different (in the small details) than the Sunshine one - at least the one you linked.

Argh, no! Sorry, but one of my pet peeves is giving musical credit to whom it's due in film scoring... Adagio in D Minor was first written by Underworld and John Murphy specifically for the OST of the magnificent and underrated film Sunshine by Danny Boyle.
It has since been "stolen" to score a myriad of other films/trailers/series (e.g. Kick-Ass, The Adjustment Bureau, Fringe, etc etc). It has a history akin to Clint Mansell's RFaD score; created with a specific film in mind, beautifully fitting, then reused for other films with mixed results. I love it when great music gets around, but I do find it a bizarre experience when I'm watching a film and all of a sudden the music of another comes on... kind of breaks the suspension of disbelief quite frankly.
/nerd rant
edit: "Super" > Kick-Ass (even though the latter was a fun watch too)

Loved the music from Kick-Ass.

The music is "Adagio in D Minor" by John Murphy, from the soundtrack of the excellent movie "Sunshine". I have to say, I really hate hearing it (ab)used so freely (in Fringe, Kick-Ass, the trailer for The Adjustment Bureau, The Walking Dead, etc.). I get the same uneasy feeling when hearing Mansell's Requiem for a Dream theme in other films; when music is written for a film, it is a part of it.

/end rant.

edit: sorry RFlag, didn't see you had already thoroughly answered.

I've heard that last song before. Does anyone know who that is? It's awfully familiar and I can't place it.


The last song (Hoppipolla by Sigur Ros) was used for Planet Earth and a few trailers...

For that matter, what's the first song, too?
Definately music plays a part in this vid!


The one at the start... over the credits is used in Finding Nemo near the start of the movie.
The main theme they play after that though is Overture by Michael Kamen and originally from the Robin Hood (Keven Costner version) soundtrack, but a portion of that theme, the part they played here, is used by Disney/Pixar films when the Disney logo is up. Can't say I knew before just now it was in Robin Hood, I just associated it with the Disney logo.
From there it goes into Kaneda's Death, Pt. 2 (Adagio in D Minor) by John Murphy from the Sunshine soundtrack and used in tons of trailers since then. That one I was able to place instantly... he is one of my lead choices for the Dark Tower score...
Then of course goes into the last song already mentioned.

Wild Rumpus Music - Blame It on the Falling Sky 2.0
John Murphy - The Last House On The Left SCORE

interesting... the soundtrack at the beginning until 0:55 sounds exactly like a track from the Sunshine soundtrack (John Murphy) after which I think it might be a track from 300's soundtrack.

I don't like that it looks a bit like Event Horizon and Core 2.

But it is Danny Boyle and Alex Garland. And to boot electronic band Underworld and composer John Murphy, are collaborating to provide the film's original music score. Which is just all kinds of awesome.

So I hope it's good.
