r.i.p James Horner... and thank you!


So very sad to hear of the passing of composer James Horner in a plane crash - he brought us so many great movie scores... Aliens, Cocoon 1 + 2, Titanic, Braveheart, Star Trek II: Wrath Of Kahn + III: Search For Spock, Catholic Boys, American Tail, Honey I Shrunk The Kids, Field Of Dreams, Apocalypto, Glory, Apollo 13, Avatar and the list goes on and on - plus songwise "Somewhere Out There" from American Tail, "My Heart Will Go On" from Titanic etc.

His Cocoon score is a personal favourite of mine and so beautiful - like much of his music which could also be thrilling, uplifting, tense, exciting and evoking of so many more emotions that added so much to the movies he scored. Rest peacefully James... and thank you!

I agree. One of his best scores (both Cocoon movies). He will be missed for sure.
