- Track Title: Guardians of the Galaxy
Movie: Guardians of the Galaxy
Composer(s): Tyler Bates
Theme of the Week: April 14, 2015
Info:
Guardians of the Galaxy was Tyler Bates' most demanding score. Director James Gunn wanted something "dramatic and thematic". In addition to keeping up with the evolving vision of the film, Bates was asked to write huge chunks of the score so it could be played on set during the shoot.
"During action scenes and huge dramatic moments we blare the score on set so that the cast, crew, and camera can move in harmony with the music," said Gunn.
The main theme is one of the many cues that have more than 500 tracks of audio. Bates claimed that many orchestral passages are doubled and tripled instrumentation. He calls his work on it a space rock opera.

"You said it yourself, bitch. We are the Guardians of the Galaxy"
Theo C Wrong place, go to the Black tears one.
Noelzilla1 Well, f-ck a duck. Thanks :)
mpla1234 Sure but he thinks that's gross
Theo C Role Credits *Ding*
I know.
I think I speak for every guardian fan when I say, James Gunn thank you 🙏
Quel film pour terminer la trilogie, incroyable. Sûrement le meilleur film Marvel.
very well said
@@romainbardou3705 Je suis d'accord, Guradians de la galaxie 3 était vraiment génial
Yea solid trilogy 1st movie is the best in my opinion 2nd is the worst (still good though) 3rd is good but it is a little messy tbh.
@@israelhernandez5431I agree somewhat. I think Vol. 3 is the weakest in the trilogy. The character writing was sloppy imo. The plot was forced, specifically anything involving Adam Warlock or the flesh space station. The choop choop kids and the animals in cages and the robotic friends of Rocket were there to manipulate the audience's emotions. Cute kids and animals always works to soften the critic in our hearts. Drax never fully became a solid character because James Gunn and the various writers over the years wanting him as comic relief instead of a father overcoming the loss of his family. Mantis finally gets fleshed out as a good sister for Quill, which is cool, but I would've liked to have seen this version of her in Infinity War for a bit. Instead of revealing her being Quill's sister in a holiday special not everyone watched. Gamora finally acts like the fiercest woman in the galaxy, but why? The version of Gamora we see in Endgame is just a week younger version of the Gamora from Guardians 1. So why is she such a dick now? Daddy issues with Thanos? We don't know. The film doesn't tell us. Nebula really deserved more screen time. Star Lord seems like he hasn't matured all that much, he's still emotionally stunted, and I understand dealing with Ego, losing Yondu, losing Gamora, vanishing and coming back to reality, and meeting a "new" Gamora is insane... but I wish he had grown a little more. He deals with loss with music and alcohol and brash actions without planning. You would think after all this time something might change, but no. Rocket's backstory is great, but I would have liked to see glimpses of this in Vol. 2. When he was with Yondu. That way when he stops being a self destructive dick to his new friends out of fear, it makes more sense. In this one, it feels like a last minute revenge story against his maker. Also not enough current day Rocket Raccoon. Most of his scenes were baby Rocket.
Also, not a memorable score. And the worst soundtrack out of all 3. Poorly placed too might I add. I think only 3 of the 17 or so songs worked well with what was on screen.
Still remember how the entire community was skeptical and doubtful back when the first GOTG was announced. Now we have arguably one of the best CBM trilogies to date. So many memories, so much laughter, so many tears. A massive thank you to James Gunn and the entire team that brought these movies to life.
One of the best MCU themes, and perhaps most underrated. A missed oppurtunity that it wasn't used in either of their crossovers with the Avengers.
One of the best MCU movies as well.
I agree. This should have been incorporated when Ironman, Strange and Spiderman met them and then when they met Thanos.
I thought they did use this in Infinity War
Also vultures
“Really... tears?”
“They are not for him”
"Im sorry little one.."
“This-This is not love..”
@@sausage6136 cringe
Soul cringe? What do you mean?
@@soulkouga3452 your cringe
The fact that this was used for a grand total of 4 seconds in volume 3 is a crime
Cómo que solo 4 segundos , esperaba que fuera usado casi en toda la película
(Posdata): no la he visto aún
Agree
At least it was used at a really good moment
I didn’t care how short the theme was used, I’m still glad it was in the movie
My literal only problem with the movie tbh 😂😂😂 it’s a microscopic problem tho, at least they used it
This is hands down one of the best themes in the MCU, yet people still say that the MCU has no memorable themes. I find it ironic, though, that the Guardians are a team of anti-heroes (albeit very likable ones), yet they still have one of the most heroic themes in the MCU.
That's the MCU for you lol, they probably did that on purpose
MCU is able to make a raccoon, a tree, an half-celestial, a bald tattooed alien and a green serial killer, the most eroic group of wierdos in the galaxy.
@@othervids3726 I think it's on Gunn and Tyler Bates, and not the MCU. They've collaborated on several projects together prior to their induction into the franchise.
Unfortunately, Bates will not be doing 'Vol. 3' and did not work on Gunn's 'The Suicide Squad'.
Listen closer, it's halo
DreamLand Stories
Halo theme is not similar to this theme
I’m gonna say it. This is better than the Avengers theme
Chad Move 😎
it is!
cap
it's great i totally agree. but you have to side with me that the Avengers theme is the best . it's just that it's overused by the public and has lost value
facts
My favorite part 4:00 to the end. That's the part when Quill has the power stone in his hand and they all come together.
and with it came the best quote of the movie said it yourself bitch were the guardians of the galaxy
except Groot...
peter hold my hand
4:41
“You said it yourself, bitch. We’re the Guardians of the Galaxy.”
"I told you i had a plan" Loved this part of the movie a lot
Ikr best part
This is sooo underrated.
I was going to like your comment but realised there's 69 likes, so I'm just gonna leave it
I'm so fucking glad that Guardians was such a huge success and that lots of people loved them. I can't wait for the second movie and when they link up with the Avengers in Infinity War!!!
+CrushingC10996WM good on ya mate. I saw Transformers 4 in the cinema instead. It was that moment I realised I made a big mistake. :'(
+CrushingC10996WM Worldwide _Transformers 4_ made more money than _Godzilla_, _How To Train Your Dragon 2_, and _Guardians of the Galaxy_. WTF.
+Titan5774 from how it's sounding that's not happening.
+Bobby lachance jr actually it is. may 5th 2017
i saw that on the announcement
Thanos: I have an army
Starlord: We have a Groot
rip
Not anymore.
Loki: We have a Hulk :'v
Thanos would've said "I have 6 stones"
Obi-Wan: I have the high ground!
Not going to lie... When i heard this I was screaming inside.
FUCKING AMAZING SCORE!
+Ehimetalor Akhere Unuabona I've listened to this so many times it never gets old!
Ehimetalor Akhere Unuabona: it is a great score. Tyler Bates did an amazing job for this one. To me on a personal level, it reminds me about the 80's and the soundtracks they produced.
It is very very good....but Ant-Man's by Beck is better
"He said Welcome to the Guardians of the Freaking Galaxy, only he didn't use freaking" :')
Rocket :'v
It's frickin' not freaking
We have to talk about your language😂😂
@@Xx_ToterTigerLP_Rockt_LoLxD_xX glaube nicht
@@dbp2625 ja hab ich auch gecheckt
I want star lord's jacket.
Justus Campbell don't we all
Justus Campbell I also want his Walkman and his space helmet with that badass ear piece that goes with it!
Me too
His ship looks cool
Do they still make Walkmans?
I could honestly listen to this for the rest of my life
Revisiting this after GOTG3. What a movie 😍🤩
This tune is so-MAJESTIC.I saw GOTG3 last week,what a nice send-off for them.
Now it's just The One Guardian of the Galaxy... :,(
Nebula counts, though.
It's rocket
That is really sad looking at the poster knowing only one of them is currently alive
Nebula is alive, I know she's not really a guardian- but I'd say she counts.
I'm 99% sure they're all gonna come back ;)
0:32 I literally can’t stop replaying this
I want a Disney+ series that focuses on the Guardians just doing regular things, like bounties, saving people, and robbing people. No big plot or anything, just each episode something happens and gets resolved by the end.
Sounds fun as a miniseries!
Listened this when taking a shit.. Most epic moment in my life
Same
MeowHaze same
Did you hear, "Take my hand!" While shitting?
Same

Feels so odd hearing this song now. It feels so long ago. Like a lifetime ago. A happy memory from a far time. That I will cherish forever
In my opinion this apart from the marvel logo intro is the most memorable score in the mcu
Owenboy360 that’s not what they said, they said BESIDES the marvel intro. But IMO I hum this theme to myself way more than the avengers theme. This is an incredible score
@@erinmartine3109 they said a part from the logo song, wich is separate from the main avengers song
MILD ENDGAME SPOILERS
(Past) Gamora: this is the one?
(Present) Nebula: The choices were him, or a tree.
I didn't get it
What she(nebula) was Trying to say here
@@thebrook1540 Future Gamora was in a relashionship with Quill and so Nebula is saying that her options were either him or a tree (Groot)
Or Drax, or a racoon (at least he's a mammal, that's closer than a tree.) I never got that line, she had plenty of options over Quill.
@@hiccuphufflepuff176 that's why I got confused too 😂 Ronan was a good option though 😅😆😆😆😆😆😂😂😂
Quill: ?
Marvel please don't change this theme for volume 2. It's perfect
Knowing Marvel Studios... They might just do that.
Still the same :)
They didn't change the theme, although they made a disco version which is just as epic.
Cool
dia they didnt change
*"MY NIPPLES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"*
"IM MARY POPPINS!"
That’s the second movie
"AAAAAAAAHHH!!!!"
Jannelle: nothing goes over my head, my reflexes are too great. I'll catch it
Finger to the throat
*means death*
Dad: "TURN IT OFF!"
Me:...
Dad: "we have bigger speakers downstairs"
Hahahahahahaha ok i didnt saw that coming! :D :D
They had us in the first half, not gonna lie.
This theme inspires thoughts of an epic meeting of demigods,mighty mortals and all manner of heroes, about to take on and beat some equally epic villain in a all or nothing fight.
You just described infinity war
+Logan Garrick yep
+Tom Branch "Come on Starlord man"
"who?"
Now the question is... what the hell is the MCU gonna do after that?
" Yes, we're not a friends, We're FAMILY. "
This theme is seriously underrated
only complaint about gotg 3 is that I wish we heard this theme for more than just a few seconds, it's my 2nd favorite theme only very slightly behind the Avengers theme. It's so close they might as well be tied though
YES THANK YOU IM NOT THE ONLY ONE. I left the theater with this exact thought. 👏
@@supahflames They should've used it in the scene where the beat the shit out of the high evolutionary
or in the hallway scene
"You're mortal! How?!"
"You said it yourself, bitch: we're the Guardians of the Galaxy!"
The SupremePro123 a) Jampolo said it first so no. b) he had slightly better grammar, so no.
Eddie Conley What was the point of your comment?
And what was of your? Writing the previous comment again?
+Gruntx Go look her comment then reply to me.
04:27
Ronan: You're mortal! How?!
Star Lord: "You said it yourself, bitch. We are the Guardians of the Galaxy"
+2013venjix Language !
+2013venjix I understand that reference (if you understood that reference 😅)
im sorry but who else thinks marvel makes the best theme music
I totally agree with you. ;) And they make the best movies, I mean, come on, whenever a Marvel movie comes out, it's guaranteed to be the most watched movie at the time. Mmm, I wonder how much money Marvel will make when Infinity War comes out on May 4th. XD Lol, Marvel has a monopoly of the movie industry, which is awesome XD
Definitely not the best, but a lot of it is great
Trinity Jose true Avengers Infinty war has came out and infity war is most watched movie in 3 days
Trinity Jose mua
Hell yea so catchy
I like how it starts like The Avengers theme but then it completely changes, telling us it's a different group.
I think we can all agree that guardians of the galaxy is an absolute masterpiece
My favourite point 2:54 to the end
is so glorious
Perfect
Check out Benjamin squires, he’s pretty much done it.
QuoteThaChannel yessssss
It's that violin music. I noticed violins know how to hit the sweet spot in the ear The Best
"PETER! TAKE MY HAND!!!"
Am I the only one that thinks this sounds totally different from the Avengers theme?
Same
No
uhlan30 yes
only the beginning did
uhlan30 yes you are 😆
I started listening at 3:00 when my favourite esports team played what would turn out to be the last round of a CS:GO major, and the second drop timinged perfectly to when they won. I can't describe the feeling and I wish that everyone could experience that kind of emotion.
GOTG and Winter Soldier are the best movies of MCU
+LuccoGamer you forgot Ant-Man
Ant- Man it's under
Be prepared to add another movie to that list next week
Just saw Civil War. It was by far the best MCU film to date!
im going to see it tomorrow!
This, the Avengers theme, and the Spiderman theme are the only MCU theme songs that I still remember and hum to this day.
the thor ragnarok theme is equally good and unforgettable
Shang-chi is the most stand out of all
@@albertteng1191 i agree
My favorite series in the marvel movies! Everytime they play this theme they're overcoming something, AMAZING 😍
"You said it yourself; we're the Guardians of the Galaxy, bitch."
I still come back to this and enjoy this absolute masterpiece
what a journey man, GOT Vol1 came out when i was 12, now GOT Vol3 is out and im pushing 21. the GOT trilogy will forever be a part of me.
I love this soundtrack!!! Gives you the friggin chills and makes you feel like you can hold any infinity stone with the support of your friends, withstand any crap obstacle life throws at ya, then you have someone yell out "You guys are so screwed now!" just like Banner.
I have had this on loop for like 4 hours while I was cleaning my room and I haven't pressed pause yet
I got a feeling that this and the Avengers theme will be combined somehow in Avengers 3
+Myles Hoglund Eargasm just thinking about that
i feel your feelings and i want your feelings to be feeling me and I WANT THIS SO MUCH TO HAPPEN AHHH
Wow you are right
DEXTRON no he's not..
''I can't stop this feeling... Deep inside of me''
I really hope they still use this theme in volume 3 even tho Tyler Bates is no longer the composer
Same here because I REALLY love this theme
You guys got your wish :)
@@andimari9194only heard it for like 5 seconds
@@lukahszn5726 true, but at least you still heard it :)
listen to the very beginning of this, like the first minute and tell me that's not exactly like the avengers theme.
I thought that first thing too!
Infinity wars confirmed
It's not
They are the Avengers of space
that does sound like the avengers
JAMES GUNN IS NOW BACK TO FINISH OFF THIS AMAZING FRANCHISE AND IS GOING TO BE THE FIRST DIRECTOR EVER TO COMPLETE A TRILOGY IN THE MARVEL CINEMATIC UNIVERSE ! HALLELUJAH !!!!!!!
Who else is going to be playing the GOTG game to this?
looking for this comment
0:32 The most Epic part of the song
Forever friends
Forever family
Forever guardians of the galaxy ❤❤.
Goodbye guys it was beatiful
who else is pumped to see the Guardians teaming up with the Inhumans, Avengers, and .01% chance the X-Men?
+ryanthaiable don't be on it. I've heard it's not happening.
Bobby lachance jr but it will
+ryanthaiable that would be the best thing in theatres since StarWars. Personally though I think Guardians of the Galaxy and X-Men Days of Future Past were by far the two best movies I've seen in theatres.
+Zelly64 you know what else would be great in theatre? 23 jump st lol
+ryanthaiable who pumped for Avenger teaming up for DC?
Whoever thinks the MCU doesnt have any memorable music clearly hasnt heard this.
or antman
Or iron man 3
Or freaking black panther
4:41,
“Ronan (from this movie): You’re Mortal. How?
Star-Lord: You said it yourself bitch, we’re the Guardians of the Galaxy”
*Ronan
wtf ronin
THIS HITS SO DIFFERENT THO. This is incredibly made. My goodness, this is an amazing theme song, and super underrated. GET. THIS. MORE. LIKES!
Well. It’s not like this RUclipsr created it lol.
Perfect action+ perfect director+ perfect theme song + perfect intense + perfect cast = masterpiece 🔥
Bro every marvel movie theme songs gets me every time
Gives me heroic goosebumps lmao
thank you james gunn for making us feel apart of this beautiful family, i will forever cherish all the memories of watching these movies everytime with my siblings 🥹
I’d argue this is better than the avengers theme
"does anyone got any tape out there? I wanna put some tape over the death button"
"nobody has any tape!"
"not a single person has tape?!"
"you have an atomic bomb in your bag! If anyone's gonna have tape, it's you!"
"THATS EXACTLY MY POINT, I HAVE TO DO EVERYTHING"
Rocket 🦝 is the best character
1:51 When all the other heroes are again beaten by Thanos, *Rocket* single handedly charges Thanos and kills him with a 44 Magnum in Avengers Endgame.
If only that happened, then we wouldn't lose Tony
The Guardians of the galaxy ❤
When I wasn't a Marvel Fan, when I heard the words, "Guardians of the Galaxy", I leginimately thought it was another Star Wars thing they were doing or a massive army that brings order to the galaxy, but when I saw it was merely this dysfunctional team... damn. :O
Whoever composed this was brilliant
Another one of my favorite MCU films and soundtracks.
4:25 this is all your here for
2:30 best part
i litterly get goosebumps from this music
I'm gonna miss all of them..🥺
specially Rocket and Drax..😔
Lol they coming next year don’t cry yet
Lol theyr dying :((
Having Thor on the team is gonna be a weird power dynamic - he's really just objectively stronger than every other Guardian, so I'm definitely interested in seeing how Gunn balanced out having a literal god on a team of scrappy space mercenaries.
Quill was immortal for a while too.

best MCU theme?
Endgame portals says Hi
@@siddharthjajoria5305 lol
@@siddharthjajoria5305avengers but this comes in 2nd
Captain América Main theme , best theme
Best theme imo
It actually feels awesome reading the comments (which are the dialogs of the movie) while listening to the theme 😀😂
You know what the Guardians have in common with Fallout? They both have an amazing original score that gets over shadowed by the playlist of pop music that appears in both.
IDK BUT I CAN'T STOP LISTENING TO THIS. IT'S BEEN A FEW WEEKS NOW.
P.S Part 1 & 2 of Guardians of the Galaxy were amazing.
Goosebumps. Literal goosebumps.
Good to see you guys uploading again!
4:29 gave me goosebumps.
Guardians United ( Is by far one the greatest tracks in the MCU theme catalog).
I feel like bungee jumping to this
i play this song when im speeding down a freeway
How tf does this theme sound soooo good...my favourite movie theme ever
“Tu lo dijiste fantoche, somos los guardianes de la galaxia...”
The more I listen to it the more I like it
Marvel literally has bangers for all their franchises
69x better than avengers theme
Who is back here after Guardians of the Galaxy Volume 3?
I did lol
Can I just say how amazing it is! This sounds like a remixed version of the avengers theme. Literally they took the Avengers Theme, Remixed it. Threw it through a few galaxys. Let Star Lord tamper with it, and boom perfection.
Amazing :D goosebumps
BANTO me, too, the whole song 😂
The rowdy bunch are back together! With Thor as well! GOG vol 3, here we come!
when was the last time you saw a movie where they literally beat the enemy with the power of friendship
Nobody notices.. it sounds like the avengers theme
Thanks Connor, however I was just making a statement
Scott Lang Have you seen the comments? EVERYONE notices.
Nobody.... or you are just very lazy to read comments... Pull a number, please.
Um... did you even READ them comments? Everyone noticed.
Scott Lang space avengers?
One of the best themes ever. I really hope they use it in Vol 3. I was so bummed we didn’t hear it in Vol 2.
it was though. It played at the beginning and end of the film. Listen to the first track of vol 2
Look up "Two Time Galaxy Savers" from Tyler Bates. He created three versions of this theme in 40 secs, its incredible.
It was played briefly in 3 😢
4:28 😍😍😍I love this song!
