I love Carrie Fisher as Princess and General Leia I keep thinking about her too much I talk to her in my dream and light up my candles I talk to Carrie if she is by me by my Carrie Fisher collection
It's so hard to listen to this without tearing up. Leia's theme was so calming, and her presence on screen had the same exact effect. We miss you Carrie, we love you. Rest in peace.
I think what makes this theme so good is how feminine and innocent it sounds. It captures Leila’s beauty inside and out. I’m not sure how Williams does the magic he does when he expresses the essence of a character so perfectly. Maybe the force?

when i was six years old i used to hear this tune again and again on cassette and imagine myself as a character in star wars flying in the falcon at light speed , i used to make guns from paper and keep them in my pocket those were my laser blasters. it was all real for me. my dad used to point to the sky and say you are from that star and then he used to tell me a story of space travel deep into the stars with characters from star wars. now im 48 and still look at those stars and those star wars are still in my mind.
wooowww... I lke so much your story... i love the imagination that we have when we are child, so real too... gracias por compartir tu beatifull story ... saludos from Chile
At 8 years old, Princess Leia was my "first love". She was absolutely beautiful and at 55 today, I still get a little misty-eyed when I hear this. RIP Carrie Fisher.
"Princess Leia Organa, You are wise, discerning, kind hearted. These are the Qualities that came from your Mother. You are passionate, fearless. Forthright. These are gifts from your Father. Both were exceptional people, who bore an exceptional daughter"
@@orlandoavogadro The music outside of John Williams original themes were pretty meh. And yeah overall the show had some issues, but atleast had some really good scenes at times.
Thumbs up for the flautist whose vibrato isn't rapidfire like being strapped to a paintmixer. Sounds SO much better when it's controlled like this. Plus, her hair's pretty delicious.
Agree. It was sweet, gentle and appropriate for the music. Musicians...never forget that. Music is a language, ultimately, not a show of technical skill.
this princess leia theme created by john williams simply amazing. it's starts off slow and slowly build up strength as it goes along, which is totally in line with the character. thank you john williams for a great score for a great character. RIP carrie fisher, you'll always be our princess leia!
There is no part of this song that doesn’t give you immediate feels to a bygone era long ago. Man what happened to the world?? A masterpiece without a doubt. RIP Carrie.
I was six years old when I watched my first Star Wars movie, wich was A new Hope. And I kinda fell in love with princess Leia. I knew I could never actually be with her, but since then, I always had a special connection with this theme. It was also the song I heard during my first kiss. The soundtrack of Star Wars will still be amazing, even when I grow older. I‘m only turning 21 this year, but I know that these films and this amazing soundtrack will always have a place in my heart
Princess Leia's Theme is transcendent of genre, to stand as peer amongst the finest of classical music. This grand performance is the closest to John Williams's conducting that I have heard. A rousing standing ovation to all!
I've been listening to this piece since 25 May, 1977, I went out and purchased the album as soon as I was able, at the tender age of 13, the first album I had ever purchased. I hadn't listened in years, but... that final note still brings a tear to my eye. What a masterpiece.
Thank God for those wonderful French horns and the amazing talent. The musicians who are chosen to do the solo pieces must have never been known to miss a single note. "Messing up" isn't even in their vocabulary they're so good.
I always feel like the music is telling a story of Leia's life from innocence to being thrust into power, struggling, failing but then ultimately triumphing.
THE ONLY THEME THAT HAS ALWAYS BEEN ATTACHED TO ME SINCE SEEING THE CLASSIC TRILOGY...... MAY THE FORCE ALWAYS BE WITH YOU YOUR HIGHNESS.... IT'S A LONG ROAD BUT WE'LL MEET AGAIN. #YourHighnessRestWell
I was glad to hear this theme boldly used for the first trailer of Episode IX: The Rise of Skywalker. It's one of John Williams best themes, haunting, fragile, majestic, thoughtful, powerful. Everything Princess Leia come to embody in the Star Wars canon.
This music runs through my entire childhood and I would recognize it anywhere. What a stunning version! That last note is pure beauty and magnificence. It brought me to tears. 😊👍🏻
This piece is truly magical. It fits so well that is the character Princess Leia. It’s also perfect for the personality of Carrie Fisher. RIP Princess.
John Williams' work on these movie scores stands second to none against any symphonic or operatic work ever composed. They are stunningly haunting and beautiful.
For me this is the high point of John Williams' original Star Wars suite. The main theme is well defined yet peppered with the most beautiful breakdowns and flourishes, it ebbs and flows magically, and when it rises to its climactic height it swells and swirls with such beauty and emotion that never fails to move me to tears. It is a masterpiece.
Very emotional. Such a theme for one of the greatest time periods in the United States history. The 70s and 80s were amazing. I fear we won't ever see that again. Best time ever!😢
"Okay John. Now pull together all the deepest feelings of adoration, awe and longing for the love of your life, then boil those emotions down into a singular theme that will stand forever as the definitive musical portrayal of idealised pure feminine beauty and the power it has over those that gaze upon it. Have the orchestra almost tear itself apart during the cresendo, as if it's a tiny speck of dust trying to stare into the centre of the sun, or a master craftsman hopelessly attempting to weave the Platonic form of beauty itself out of tears and spiderwebs. You've got one day - good luck." - George Lucas, March 1977
At 39 years old, I've just realized that John Williams' music is woven throughout my entire childhood. It's beautiful and brings back wonderful memories. Stunning musician. 😊
The magic of Star Wars is at least 50% the music.
With you I agree!
I agree but in that case star wars magic should be 150%
Honestly I’d say the music does like 75% of the work
Yes ! Yes ! Yes !
Movies John Williams compose for have a 90% chance of being one of my favourite movies and I wouldn't even care for the visuals
Fans: We love you Carrie!
Carrie: I know.

Absolutely. It’s yet another example of Maestro William’s singular gift. His musical will be studied 200 yrs from now as classical music

F for Carrie Fisher
Her Royal Highness.
I can't handle all of these goddamn feelings. Those goddamn French horns.
Every. Damn. Time.
I know right
Saw the principle horn in another Proms event...he's only gotten better-wish they had programs-lol
Speaking as a horn player myself, I totally agree! 😁
Those French Horns are what connect Luke, Leia and Ben, emotionally and musically.
She is with Force and the Force is with Her.
SHE WAS A BEAUTIFUL PRINCESS AND TO Roltey and my favorite R.I.P PRINCESS 💖🌹🌹🌷

This music was the reason why I learned to play the French horn. ❤ John Williams...a genius composer of the 20th century.
when he said this line and the theme started playing, I was tearing up. the show really wasn't anything special, but the music was.

@@TehIdiotOneit did enough to make me happy with it.
Five years on, and I still mourn for her. No celebrity death has ever affected me in any real way, except for hers.
Felt that way for Robin Williams
Goodbye bravest princess, The force will always be with you :(
Thumbs up for the flautist whose vibrato isn't rapidfire like being strapped to a paintmixer. Sounds SO much better when it's controlled like this.

Oh. And that horn section is absolutely flippin stellar. Williams music tends to be very challenging. They nailed the stink out of it.
lol.
She did an incredible job

Rest in Peace James Earl Jones, thank you for giving the world one the greatest villains ever brought to film.

thanks
And may the odds ever be in your favour
John Williams is amazing. My favorite thing of Star Wars is the music. This is so beautiful, so emotional :')
Totally agree!
John Williams is a gift.💝. I am honored to have met him. Remarkable.
Same
His music saved the poorly executed love story in Episode 2 for instance.
They _have_ to play this by the end of Episode VIII.
Episode VIII?? What are you talking about? The last episode of Star Wars is the return of the Jedi, ep VI. There have never been other after.
allluckyseven I would cry :(
Where the heck have you being living the past year? in a cave? Never heard of episode VII The Force Awakens. DUH!!!!
I dunno what is worst, the edgy die hard fan or the people who didn't get sarcasm lol
You lunatic, she finished filming 8 ... Thats the last movie she was in...
I love how her theme is tied in to her character as well as the Rebellion. Starting small but then growing to a large scale.
She's now sleeping peacefully on Alderaan.
May the Force be with her
Hate to break it to ya but..... Alderan blew up.... 😅
@@crimson3540 but the ghost of leia and the ghost of planet alderaan live
alderaan exploded though
Couldn't imagine Star Wars without it's music. Good on John Williams for making such a timeless piece.
holy fuck episode 8 is going to be a hard watch
Jay Parikh :'c
Jay Parikh it's a good thing they finished filming before Carrie passed, she is now with the force and deeply missed.
Jay Parikh it was
Everytime.
It was awful. Now they'll have to kill her between episodes. Fucking morons.
To us she will always be Royalty...sleep well dear Princess.
She will always be our Princess. Goodbye Carrie. RIP.
Now her mom, Debbie, has passed on too. So sad. This song is a fitting tribute.
There is no part of this song that doesn’t give you immediate feels to a bygone era long ago.

Three seconds in and I have a tear in my eye! :'(

Thank God for those wonderful French horns and the amazing talent. The musicians who are chosen to do the solo pieces must have never been known to miss a single note. "Messing up" isn't even in their vocabulary they're so good.
Still one of the greatest melodies John Williams has ever composed, and this performance...I don't even know where to start.❤
30+ years later and this still gives me chills, so many emotions wrapped up in this song of Leia and of Han....
If you ask me it’s one of the best pieces ever written.
RIP Carrie Fisher
She is one with the force now
I always feel like the music is telling a story of Leia's life from innocence to being thrust into power, struggling, failing but then ultimately triumphing.
That is great writing. Great music opens the imagination ❤
The huge drop to me shows her strength as a general but the flute in the background shows here feminine essence.
The music of Star Wars is as epic as the movies. I love the genius of John Williams.
I imagine I sit in that theatre now and I'm on the edge of my seat and tears are streaming down my cheeks cause this is so damn exquisite!!!
That's John Williams for yas.

A lovely theme for a lovely Princess. May she rest in peace.
One of the greatest pieces of music all-time in my opinion, no other orchestral song evokes the feelings that this one does for me
Most beautiful theme by Williams.
Fuck the horn is already sad in this piece but now it takes a whole different meaning...
Can't stop crying! Farewell Princess!
Adiós linda princesita :-(
Farewell Debbie Reynolds. May you and your princess be among the stars.

@ThaiBubbleTea - YES! I feel this is the most romantic music ever written. Gives me chills every time. Thank you, John Willliams...
I'm not crying. I just finished chopping onions. I always chop onions when I hear this.
