  1. Hello,
  2. I chose movie soundtracks because I think and a lot of times the
  3. artists themselves and their extraordinary creativity put
  4. into making the soundtracks are overlooked.
  5. So why not educate ourselves in a music appreciation class
  6. where we could go more in depth behind their creation
  7. like Phil Collins creating the soundtrack for one of my favorite Disney movies,
  8. Tarzan.
  9. It's not quite overlooked like most,
  10. but I do believe that
  11. it wasn't appreciated as much as it should have been.
  12. Phil Collins wrote and performed nearly the entire soundtrack of Tarzan.
  13. I believe the director choosing Phil Collins uh solos
  14. drummer at the time might have seemed baffling,
  15. but Collins used talent to really bring
  16. the movie to life,
  17. starting out heavy and dramatic with African drums and melodies
  18. that really help inspire raw emotions in the opening scenes.
  19. Even as the story progressed,
  20. the soundtrack stayed right up to par invoking a light
  21. and playful touch with his song trash in the camp,
  22. which was the only song actually that
  23. Phil Collins didn't actually perform himself.
  24. If you've watched the movie,
  25. it's easy to see exactly how perfect each song transcribes
  26. the atmosphere and the feeling of each scene and character.
  27. This is really because Phil purposely wrote the
  28. soundtrack to fit the storyline in each character,
  29. his most famously known song, you'll be in my heart
  30. does nothing short of putting you in your feelings.
  31. As you watch the bond between Tarzan and his gorilla mother grow
  32. as Tarzan grows and has a few issues adjusting to being in a gorilla family.
  33. But the lyrics of the song and the emotions constructed
  34. between Tarzan and Kala is a love like no other,
  35. which is very obvious to see in the movie and to hear in the lyrics of the song.
  36. I don't think this specific masterpiece
  37. of a soundtrack is quite overlooked, like many others are.
  38. But I still believe further educating ourselves of the production
  39. energy and just pure effort and time put into movie soundtracks would truly benefit
  40. us in a mov uh music appreciation class.
