Ever notice that alot of Composing God John Williams' songs sound alike? Like case in point: Last Crusade Nazi Theme (no not that cheery little march at the burning Scene) vs. The Droid Invasion from Phantom Menace. Now, rhythmically, these songs aren't the same, but they sound so much alike! Many other songs are similar, and there is one thing that is practically a signature for Williams: Offbeats. For example, In almost all Star Wars songs (Main Theme, Throne Room, End Title, Imperial March, The afore mentioned Droid Invasion) have offbeats underneath the melody. Same with Indy and many others. Just thought I'd point that out. Don't ask, it's late and I'm tired.


P.S. Aside from Duel of Fates, track 14 on the Phantom Menace soundtrack is the coolest one on the f*cking album! WHOO! If you have it, Listen to it!................NOW!
