Sikor Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 Some times ago I saw great movie - Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence. When I heard music - i know, that I know it. But from here...? Yes, in International Karate / World Karate Championship is cover of great music composed by Ryuichi Sakamoto.

José Pereira Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 There is a Thread about A8 musics that are, indeed, real commercial ones somewhere on AOnline and I think also here. Although not a POKEY masterpiece and, of course, not possible there's my old time favourite group DEAD CAN DANCE with their interpretation of the Middle Age song "Saltarello" in Miecze Valdgira game.

Gorfy Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 I saw Merry Christmas, Mr. Lawrence at the theater when it came out. I remember walking outside in the falling snow afterwards, while that theme played over again in my head. To this day I can feel the bittersweet quality of that experience whenever I hear, or think of, Sakamoto's music. Thanks for the post, Sikor.

Mark Wright Posted May 20, 2013 Share Posted May 20, 2013 Jury is still out to my mind whether this was the inspiration for the soundtrack to a C64 space-age budget title (while we got "Knight Tyme" music instead.) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TDfmLWPpJVc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

morelenmir Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 I seem to recall an episode of "Magnum P.I." that had a cover of the Sidewinder music of all things! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
