Just to say love all you guys! We grew up at the best time even though we probably never realised back then! Teary 48yr old nostalgia overload from the UK! 🇬🇧 😢 ♥️
Craig, I hope you get to read this - this score has brought so much happiness to me, it’s what absolutely made the movie - I grew up up with it and had the honour of introducing it to my two sons - thank you so much
The first time I ever heard this score was seeing the movie on VHS on a movie night at a friends place. Mid 80s here in Australia. He had the audio running through his big Pioneer sound system too. I can still remember being thrilled seeing that starfield and the main title theme kicking in. It still gives me goosebumps and a tear in the eye at 53yo. Thanks Craig!
40 years ago we were young teens watching The Last Starfighter in movie theaters. Enchanted and thrilled by its magic. To listen to this today as I near my 54th birthday, I thank Mr. Safan for this masterpiece. You made that 14 year old inside me cry and smile. Oh, the memories...
Maravilloso! This melody keeps ringing in my memory with a flavor of not knowing where exactly came from.... it takes me back to my childhood. Gracias Craig
Greetings, Starfighter - you have been recruited by the Star League, to defend the Frontier against Zur and the Kodan Armada - & then you look up to see that very Starfighter - the power, the reality, the music to go with it - if that doesn't stir you, I'm sorry, you don't have a pulse.
Or even a sequel. As Xur escaped, and as Alex was tasked with rebuilding the starfighter legion, and Centauri’s game was still left on Earth, with perhaps even Alex’s brother also having the “gift” of being a starfighter. Yes, please. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
that piece of music brings goose bumps every time i hear it such a soulful inspiring soothing yet upbeat performance i love it even all these years on its aged beautifully thankyou
I hate concerts , why would someone stand for hours and watch someone play an instument....BUT i would love to be in the crowd of this song... amzaing...
Fantastic. Very nice suite and great performance. This is for sure one of the greatest scores in my collection. When you close your eyes you 'll be transportet instantly into space adventure. This deserves way more views!
I can clearly see each scene of the movie that goes with each movement of the suite. I can hear Grig yelling SHOOT! and the sound of the scout ship exploding, the journy from Rylos to Earth as shown in the opening credits, everything.
This is the one score I listen to the most. Hair stands on end every time. Beautiful music for a Jem Of a movie. Which this orchestra performed flawlessly. Amazing to see you conduct too. It’s made my day. :-) I’ll be humming it for weeks again now. :-)
Craig Safan needs to hear the Southern California Brass Consortium's recording of his Last Starfighter Overture. His fans and fans of this particular suite of music need to hear it.
I was about to post that the tempo is off, it's too slow in a lot of spots ... and then I saw whose video this is. I take it back. You're right - and THANK YOU for one of my favorite pieces of music!
Would've loved to have seen and heard this with my own eyes and ears. The timing is not the same as the original recording obviously. But still a great performance of a great score from what was the new golden age of sci-fi movies that was the 80's.
How am I a 42 year old man that gets teary-eyed every.single.time I hear this????
I'm 48 and I never tire of this movie. *Best. Movie. Ever.*
im 50 same here brother
For the same reason I at 55 do.
Hey, 70 y/o here and misty-eyed every time!
Just to say love all you guys! We grew up at the best time even though we probably never realised back then! Teary 48yr old nostalgia overload from the UK! 🇬🇧 😢 ♥️
5:09 is so goddamn iconic. That drop is insane to hear everytime.
one of the best movie themes ever made...its up there with superman..indiana jones and star wars.
This theme still gets me emotional and brings tears to my eyes,I loved that movie as a kid and I still do as an adult,it was loaded with heart.
Amazing, like Star Wars and Back to the Future this is one of those unforgettable themes I have grown up with. Wish I could experience it in person.
You gotta throw Indiana Jones in there also!
Craig, I hope you get to read this - this score has brought so much happiness to me, it’s what absolutely made the movie - I grew up up with it and had the honour of introducing it to my two sons - thank you so much
Thanks! It means a lot to me that my music has touched others. Best... Craig

Listening to it on youtube WOW, being there in person, WOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!
9:20 favorite part. Severely underrated score.
Definitely an iconic piece of 80s movie magic.
Timeless. Made me go out and buy the movie, again. I hope "Last Starfighters" makes it and that Safan is heavily involved there as well.

Coming back to this music after 30 years and it gives me goosebumps. One of the classic themes.
My absolute favorite movie. I one the book, DVD, and soundtrack. I can identify were in the movie each piece of music in this came from. LOL
Excellent movie...Brilliant score
9:21 for some reason gives me goosebumps. The slow build up was amazing
exactly that! cheeks flushed scalp tingling and neck - back shivers! in my mind i picture the elivator scene...
this deserves alot more views I was 13 in 1984 not gonna lie got emotional
I was 10! A nostalgic teary video for sure. Love from the UK 🇬🇧
Still here in Jan 2, 2023.....if man cannot go to Rylos, then Rylos will come to the man :)
5:08 is what we all came for
I came for the entire adventure
This needs more recognition. A staple of the 80's that a lot sleep on.
Outside of the John Williams or Jerry Goldsmith camp, this has to be one of the best scores in movie history.
Feelings of a remake overcoming me. One can wish❤️
Or even a sequel. As Xur escaped, and as Alex was tasked with rebuilding the starfighter legion, and Centauri’s game was still left on Earth, with perhaps even Alex’s brother also having the “gift” of being a starfighter. Yes, please. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Nah. It will be a woke offensive mess and will ruin the original. Source: every reboot attempted after 2015
This theme is timeless Thanks for making such amazing movie and tv music. You are a legend.
Reason #675,987 why the 80s kicked so much ass
Goosebumps city! This was a fantastic. I love this score so much.
that piece of music brings goose bumps every time i hear it such a soulful inspiring soothing yet upbeat performance i love it even all these years on its aged beautifully
thankyou
I hate concerts , why would someone stand for hours and watch someone play an instument....BUT i would love to be in the crowd of this song... amzaing...

Just Amazing, The score of my childhood
This is the one score I listen to the most. Hair stands on end every time. Beautiful music for a Jem Of a movie. Which this orchestra performed flawlessly. Amazing to see you conduct too. It’s made my day. :-) I’ll be humming it for weeks again now. :-)
UNFORGETTABLE
This and Remo Williams theme are golden.

Brilliant ! one of my all time favourite scores .
I was about to post that the tempo is off, it's too slow in a lot of spots ... and then I saw whose video this is.
I take it back. You're right - and THANK YOU for one of my favorite pieces of music!
They don’t make them like this anymore do they?
Thank you for sharing this, Craig!
Thank You for this. Just beautiful to watch, and listen!
Great Job!
A nostalgic favourite of mine, thanks for sharing!
Wonderful music 💖

Great Bravo
This is beautiful! Thanks!
Hollywood is going to make a sequel/remake hybrid of this wonderful movie. I wonder how bad they're going to ruin it.
Welcome to RYLOS everyone!
È possibile caricare il brano di "timestolker", so che è stato composto da lei e, lo trovo stupendo ed adatto al film.
Grazie mr Craig
🎥❤️👈🔥👉❤️🎬
Did you know that the people in this movie don’t sound like chipmunks? And did you know you’re playing the song too fast?
:)
