    Is it too late? Perhaps no one will see these post. I lived in Africa. I lived as a young girl in Nairobi. And I loved it. This film brought it all back.: the sound, the people, the smell of the landscape.. My mother is gone now. And yet this is what brings her back to me.

      It is yet another Year later than when you posted (2024) now. I hope you are well. I am 60 now and live in Australia. I was born in Lusaka, Northern Rhodesia (now Zambia) in 1963 and lived in Africa for the first 12 years of my life. I remember it well. I love this Movie and the Soundtrack - hard to believe the Movie and Sound Track were first released 39 years ago. My father passed away 11 years ago but my mother is still going strong at 86. God Bless

      It is never too late. I never lived in Africa and a pure white person so to speak but that movie and music made me feel I lived there in a former life. As long of the sounds and evn the smell live around you, know that your Mom is still alive and is looking over you. That movie and music mad me feel like I was flying over my homeland where I can find the beginning and the end, peace at last.I always wanted to go there but I limit my travels to see my Mom in France considering she is 97. Treasure the memories, smell, landscape, the people and the music that brings you back to your Mom. She is technically gone but not spiritually. She lives in you through that. Embrace her spirit

    This soundtrack is bittersweet for me. I cry every time I hear it. It’s been years now. Me and my brother, my only sibling listened to this together. He was diagnosed in 1986 with AIDS. In 1994 he became ill. He wasn’t ready to die. He fought the battle for 2 years. This lovely song was his favorite. It helped to bring him peace and calmed his heart. Michael was a beautiful person who loved life. I look forward to meeting you in heaven with our Lord.

I remember the time when we were flying with his little plane over elephants and other animals, with my brother and my mother, in Gaboon... We were happy. Now he is flying with angels and only memories remains.
    I love you dad, thank you for all.

    The flying sequence always reminds me of my Parents. Not because of the plot, but in the fact that the were both instructor pilots who met working together after WWII. They flew open cockpit biplanes and fell in love soaring through the skies, including landing on beaches like in one scene. They would have both turned 100 years old this year. Dad flew with the USAAF in the South Pacific and Mom was a civilian instructor pilot. “The Greatest Generation”. I miss them so.

      As much as I appreciate the comments regarding the "Greatest Generation; Every generation, then and Now, faces a common enemy, Evil and Wanton Destruction!
      A wise theologian once wrote, and I
      paraphrase, " Nostalgia may reflect
      a belief that God is exhausted in the
      Present."
      Right now, at this very instant, some
      Sociopathic Bastard is Contemplating an assault upon the
      Most innocent and vulnerable: Our
      Children! Columbine, Sandy Hook,
      Uvalde...The List goes on, and on..
      Ad infinitem Evil accosted us when Six Million men, women, and CHILDREN lost their Innocence and Lives at the Hands of Evil!!
      Our Generation, not the Greatest Generation, who more than did their Part, asks us this Critically Important Question: " Are you, the Generation of 2024, prepared to do YOUR PART?!?"
      If OUR generation answers with ANYTHING other than an Unflinching, EMPHATIC, "YES !!"
      Then we have proven ourselves unworthy before GOD and HISTORY!!
      Innocense, LOVE, and Especially our
      Beloved CHILDREN, Will ask what
      We did during The Pandemie of Mass Murder currently Attacking
      Civilization?
      Join me, and Millions of Others in Answering that QUESTION.
      This is Our Normandy, Our Terblinka, OUR obligation to Fight
      EVIL with All Our Hearts, and All Our
      Minds, and All OUR SOULS.
      Join me in OUR sacred And Honorable Task, repudiating and defeating EVIL once AGAIN!
      Faithfully and With LOVE,

      John Barry was not human . He was an alien descended from the high heavens. No human being can aspire to achieve the Godliness of his music. His music was... and is in perfect sync with the Creator. The vastness, the non-perception of time, the drama and the awareness of how negligible is Man compared to all of Creation.

A Passage to India, Doctor Zhivago. This cannot be heard without emotion, it compels tears and must evoke memories of life's deepest experience. Who can not be moved by the hypnotic cadence, sweet passages of beauty which simply blow like warm winds over grassland, in such effortless flow. Ah, and that haunting woodwind . . the sublime tempo and perfectly measured, supremely . . knowing . . pace. The melody, exquisite, perfect, wraps around your soul, cuts through the heart and shatters with a note all defences. The senses soar in glorious moments of ecstacy and the mind seems to lift to a place . . just for a little while, higher. John Barry we thank you. It is art that makes civilisation

      Grieving is a process that never ends really. It might transform into a more subtle and positive thought process. I explain briefly. When my Dad passed away, I had to write about my feelings, which was about the sense of loss, 10 drafts over two years. I let it sit because the more I was getting into it, the more pain I felt. I had to breathe and think what was happening beyond my physical and emotional pain. This is when I suddenly realized, that want it or not, he would never be dead. He just transitioned to another dimension that we truly don't understand. So I totally changed my title from the Sense of Loss to the Metamorphosis. I will always miss him in the physical world but I know that he is in another dimension I can't grasp or understand. This movie/soundtrack brings to an etheral state where all is one, so to speak and if I make sense. Trust me, I miss him in my world every single day but I know he is with through music, art, movies, writings, etc

      Thank-you so much to your reply !
      Tokyo is cruel and hustle and bustle with the Coronavirus infection problem .
      Someday please come to Tokyo of the luscious and transient spring where all Japanese people are making merry and floating under the cherry blossoms in full bloom having gorgeous Bento , delicious foods , treats and drinks with dancing , singing , eating and drinking .
      Japanese spring banquet is really 「 the Rite of Spring 」 of Stravinsky .
      Take care of yourself
      Good luck !

    John Barry was my favourite composer. His music always somehow , captures whatever the context of the film is.. simply wonderful !!!!

    This soundtrack takes my mind to another place. So soothing I often listen to the soundtrack when I get stressed .
