John Williams does Christmas.

Didn't know American politics had its blue-rinse brigade. And she's on the right side of things!

Giving in to criminals turned out to be a great idea.

(20 December 1924: Adolf Hitler, sentenced to 5 years for his attempted coup d'état, is released after 9 months.)

Film composer Heitor Pereira played the electric guitar on the soundtrack of "The Holiday".

(This is a live performance with another guitar player.)

(The guitar kicks in after 5 minutes.)

It takes at least 4 guitars to play the music of "Gladiator".

(The guitars start after 2 minutes 15 seconds.)

A guitar piece composed and played by Hans Zimmer and Heitor Pereira for a Christmas movie.

The man who played the electric guitar and sang on the soundtrack of "The Holiday" is film composer Heitor Pereira.

(He also played the (acoustic) guitar on the soundtrack of "Gladiator".)

One more. In this case, "Zero" is a hell of a lot.

'Tis the season!

If you have Christmas music at home, throw that crap away and listen to Hans Zimmer's soundtrack for "The Holiday".

The Donald needs Elon's consent the way Harry and Meghan crave for Oprah's blessing.

The Donald "needs" Kash Patel to "shatter the deep state".

Really? Donnie loves cash (as in "K$H") above all other considerations.

John Williams records the score of "Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny" with violinist Anne-Sophie Mutter.

[ivovynckier]

I was finally able to grab John Williams’ latest score, “Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny”.

(In principle, the CD was released in the summer of 2023 alongside the movie but I couldn’t find it anywhere. Even now, I had to overpay to get it. John Williams’ music is no longer published on CD? I’m going to burn some music executives at the stake if this isn’t corrected.)

The maestro of the maestros may be in his nineties but he is undiminished.

He references the known Indiana Jones themes in passing but has composed totally new ones. And he got Anne-Sophie Mutter (@anne_sophie_mutter) to play the violin solos.

What more do you need…?

Drones in the skies of New Jersey? We need some Jewish space lasers to take them out! Where's Marjorie Taylor Greene?

The Donald is jealous of Lily Philips. He wants 100 billionaires to line up for him at Mara-a-Lago.
