<font size="1">added on May 17, 2007, at 23:19 by covernator</font><br /><br /><table><tr valign="top"><td>Whether it was the lush island scenery, the chemistry between the young leads, or the journey of exploration they took, composer Basil Poledouris was inspired to deliriously sweet heights in his score for The Blue Lagoon (1980). All of Richard and Emmeline's joyous joint discovery is conveyed in the music, which is undiluted by being separated from the film. You need never to have seen the movie to discern their innocent exuberance. Most recognisable is the "Main Title" theme, a yearning piece for strings that undulates like the island's constantly lapping tide. The at-sea rolling sensation is carried by crashing cymbal crescendos and high, bird-like flute calls. Dipping and swelling harp parts are also an integral part of the rest of the score, alongside piano, the combination being at its loveliest for the opening "Love Theme (Emmeline)". This will always be the score for young flirting couples to stand on shore and watch the waves. --Paul Tonks</td><td><script type="text/javascript">google_ad_client = "pub-5821412950245701";google_alternate_color = "F5F5FF";google_ad_width = 336;google_ad_height = 280;google_ad_format = "336x280_as";google_ad_type = "text";google_ad_channel = "0725529317";google_color_border = "F5F5FF";google_color_bg = "F5F5FF";google_color_link = "22229C";google_color_text = "000000";google_color_url = "333333";</script><script type="text/javascript" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"></script></td></tr></table><table cellpadding="15"><tr align="center"><td valign="bottom"><a href="http://www.allcdcovers.com/show/38236/the_blue_lagoon_2004_retail_cd/front"><img src="/image_system/covers_th/8/e/8ed6b6479b419433387293d700d03728.jpg" border="0"></a><br><strong><a href="http://www.allcdcovers.com/show/38236/the_blue_lagoon_2004_retail_cd/front">front</a></strong><br><font size="1">760 x 750 px</font></td><td valign="bottom"><a href="http://www.allcdcovers.com/show/38236/the_blue_lagoon_2004_retail_cd/back"><img src="/image_system/covers_th/7/c/7cd1aab20284e28f52932dec293c67fc.jpg" border="0"></a><br><strong><a href="http://www.allcdcovers.com/show/38236/the_blue_lagoon_2004_retail_cd/back">back</a></strong><br><font size="1">965 x 750 px</font></td><td valign="bottom"><a href="http://www.allcdcovers.com/show/38236/the_blue_lagoon_2004_retail_cd/cd"><img src="/image_system/covers_th/1/c/1c44c6309a4ffcb8ae305a5a4e616054.jpg" border="0"></a><br><strong><a href="http://www.allcdcovers.com/show/38236/the_blue_lagoon_2004_retail_cd/cd">cd</a></strong><br><font size="1">750 x 756 px</font></td><td valign="bottom"><a href="http://www.allcdcovers.com/show/38236/the_blue_lagoon_2004_retail_cd/inlay"><img src="/image_system/covers_th/7/8/78258461044e21521ba679f3c62b2bf1.jpg" border="0"></a><br><strong><a href="http://www.allcdcovers.com/show/38236/the_blue_lagoon_2004_retail_cd/inlay">inlay</a></strong><br><font size="1">762 x 750 px</font></td></tr></table>
