Lastly , on this one, disregard the Nazi symbol. This is the climax music from a terrific film - "Sophie Scholl: The Final Days"

Speaking of scores — that is what I feel is missing from movies today. There are no good scores that make you feel something. There is nothing memorable.

Hey thanks curiousMind......

I didn't know Danny Elfman had any involvement scoring Batman 89.

For some reason, one thought Prince did the entire soundtrack.

Anyway, thanks for the links

Prince made one song for the movie but the score was by Danny Elfman. That guy's scores are just next level. But I really love Marc Shaiman's Addams family score. That YouTube video I linked, I timed it so it starts at the right time past the intro music. It's dark, and eerie, a little mischievous, but profoundly beautiful.

Yeah, Prince had, I believe (without looking it up) a big hit with...

"BatDance"

But, and I don't know why, I had it in my head he did the entire soundtrack.

Yeah, you put Elfman on the map for me, for being something aside from BRidget's husband, LOL.

The Addams family track (Main Titles), I'm getting a bit of a "The Elephant Man" vibe on it.

It's good, good music. Thank you.

Elfman did the score for the film and Prince contributed songs, both released soundtrack albums.
