Hans Zimmer

[Shadowfox]

So he isn't a Metal at all?

[Mieko]

Erm...I don`t know, is he really a metalman!?
I thought he`d be a...a...a lyrics-drawer, not really a musician...

[Shadowfox]

I was just joking.

[Mieko]

I also thought so.
But what then he is? A lyricist?

HansZimmer is a great composer. He has produced the Soundtrack of the Lion King, everything you hear in the film (the Pop-Songs like CYFTLT are co-produced with Elton John of course). If you want to listen to more Hans Zimmer musik, you can buy the "The Rock" soundtrack, for example. And even one track from Madagascar is composed by Zimmer.
He has begun his carrier as far as I know in the mid 80s in the german Pop-Band Ultravox, which was quiet successful back then (yes, zimmer is born in Germany ,) )
By the way, he has also worked one the Brother Bear soundtrack, cause it's made by Mark Mancina, who is in his company
And, luckily he has been never involved into death metal ^.^

[Mieko]

Hehe, you say it, man! Born in Germany, our nice Mr. Zimmer
Wow, seems like he really has composed songs to nearly every of the later disney trickfilms...?

And, luckily he has been never involved into death metal ^.^

You say it, man...you say it.

Hey, Long time ago I went to a hotel in Paris and I read that "Zimmer" in German means "room" Could it be?

No idea of German, you see But I love his compositions... Yeah, Brother Bear is Mancina´s but I love the piece "Transformation" with the Bulgarian Women Choir... ohh, wonderful!!!!

[Mieko]

Yeah, "Zimmer" means "room" in German

Erm...I'm not understanding the rest of your post, did you mean that in "Brother Bear" a bulgarian women choir sings to a song called "Transformation"?
And what "Mancina's" mean?

As I already said, if you would like to I cold help you to learn a bit of the german language

[Clara]

Yeah, sorry... I repeat:

"Brother Bear" score is written by Mark Mancina, and the track "Transformation" is sung by the Bulgarian Women Choir that gives to the song an atmosfear of mistery... Simply beautiful!!

[Mieko]

I think I finally have to watch this film too! Really...

And, I guess, I'm simply too silly to understand your posts at first time
(Your post has been nice, really, it's only...I've never heard something 'bout Brother Bear, so I...erm...am unkowing

Well, "Brother Bear" is a Disney movie that follows the style of classics. It´s not as good as TLK but witn Phil Collins´ songs and the pictures is a beautiful movie...

If you can, you must watch it.

[Mieko]

I can, and I will do.
I really should watch all the disney films of the last years I've not seen...

Well, The Lion King has - I guess - the magic of the first film starring "animal charakters" and TLK also has a magic philosophy...

It was only the Beta film, all of the best Disney people had worked at "Pocahontas", but the Lion King-crew has risen to the more successful film (And, how I find, not undeserved...)

[Clara]

TLK is the best one for me!

Other movies didn´t have that magic, I couldn´t find that "philosophy" in them... "Brother Bear" is simple, but it has a very sad moment... with a song titled "No way out"... I have cried with it...

When you watch it, tell us what do you think.

[Mieko]

I'll do!
And, you're right, TLK makes one feel more than other disney films, it makes one feel more than a film makes one feel!

I really have to see this sad scene, I'm curious about it!

[MafunDi]

Mieko: Visit me, I have the German DVD here
And yes it's a emotional film.
But TLK will always be my favourite
And it has big cats in it, which look great *purr*
