(Instrumental)
| schayler (Denver) | Posted: Apr 10, 2013 - 17:28 I can no longer watch the movie because it is just too sad to watch Ellen Burstyn's descent into madness, but darn is the music excellent! It always takes me right back to the intensity of this movie. |
| Ballzak | Posted: Apr 10, 2013 - 17:26 Want your teenagers to stay off drugs? Have them watch this movie. |
| fredriley (Nottingham, UK) | Posted: Jan 10, 2013 - 10:13 This would make a fine addition to the soundtrack of Guillermo del Toro's masterful film Cronos. It has the right atmosphere of building dread and foreboding, plus a touch of Goth. 8 from the spooked Nottingham jury. |

| scott_bruce (Southern Maryland) | Posted: Dec 06, 2012 - 04:49 The comments on this song had me laughing out loud to the point where others around me wanted to know what was so funny. Gawd, I love RP! |
| stunix (Narrowboat nr Caen Locks) | Posted: Dec 06, 2012 - 04:45 As others have pointed out, its a phenomenal film, but not one I would want to see again for health reasons. In fact Ill just stick to "Finding Nemo", RFAD was more engaging than SE7EN. or at least that's the memory I have of it. |
| jt1 | Posted: Dec 06, 2012 - 04:45 Not bad...followed really nicely from 'Garbage - The trick is to keep breathing' |

I'm intrigued by this song. I'll have to add Requiem for a Dream to my Netflix queue. |

Well, not forgettable, but definitely one of the most pompous and pretentious movies I ever saw. 1/10 for both the movie and the track from me. :( |
| bindi (North Carolina) | Posted: Apr 29, 2012 - 09:15 I'm no music expert, but this sounds pretty tedious to my ears. |
| schayler (Denver) | Posted: Apr 29, 2012 - 09:13 This song slams me back into the darkest, most disturbing film I know (except maybe for Clockwork Orange). I used to love to watch it, but I can't anymore. I love the music, and this song, yet it gives me chills to hear it. |
| Blastcat900 | Posted: Mar 28, 2012 - 15:45 What is RP and Kronos... this is the second sappy pseudo emotional pompous crap from the same album I've heard in two days. Still YUK The music is totally pretentious and forgettable. Good movie, though. Maybe the music is better with the movie, I haven't watched it but the one time... and I love great orchestral sound track music. This ain't it. Going for a one on this. |

| NeuroGeek (Just Way Out There) | Posted: Jan 25, 2012 - 06:36 Definitely not Kronos' best. |

Similarly, I find Arvo Part's Cantus in Memory of Benjamin Britten to be a very emotional piece.  This number gives me the willies, on account of the near-subsonic bass notes and portentious choruses. 8 from the disturbed Nottingham jury. I don't want to be picky, but is this really a quartet? I can surely hear an awful lot of instruments. |

| Nerubo (Denver, CO) | Posted: Sep 20, 2011 - 12:39 This is a great piece of music - not afraid to pull out all the stops and be unashamed of its bombast. Perhaps it's not cool to not have an ironic smirk and distance, but I'm a big fan nonetheless. |

| FlatCat (Chicago) | Posted: Sep 20, 2011 - 12:36 Maybe it was good movie music, but after careful consideration, I think this is close to the worst thing on RP ever. |

| sdeboo | Posted: May 17, 2011 - 12:43 i appreciate a lot of rp's playlist, but stuff like this makes it difficult not to change the station. really really repetitive in the most difficult way. |
| tobyontour (London, UK) | Posted: May 17, 2011 - 12:43 That just went on and on without really going anywhere. |
| shutter (You can't get here from there) | Posted: May 17, 2011 - 12:42 Rather ponderous, I think. |

| johkir (Davis, CA) | Posted: Mar 15, 2011 - 12:17 Maybe you received the orchestral version by Clint Mansell. Even though its the same arrangement, the Kronos version does have a slightly different climax (different EQ levels I think). But I don't know why you would order one and get another.
