I love this score, I can just see in my head the scanner display showing a Klingon Bird of Prey de cloaking. It really matched the scene, and was very subtle directing.
The very reason I practice my Connery impression every time I watch it. "What is it you seek?" "What you sheek. What all men have shought shinsh time began."
a piece of its own .. a true standalone Star Trek V often judged for the poor story and other stuff really is one of my favorites for the great soundtrack
I heard Goldsmith turned down being the composer for ST6 because of the bad box office of this one … but we’re all thankful he came back for some of the later TNG movies!
There are two parts to this piece. The first is the sojourn to find God, and the second has a kind of exuberance to it. The second part was reused a few times in Star Trek's history, such as First Contact and Insurrection. But the first part? To my knowledge it was only ever used again one time, by Goldsmith himself. At the end of the final Star Trek film, when Data sacrifices his life for Picard, you hear quietly chiming in the background the opening theme of A Busy Man. As Data begins his own sojourn to meet God. It's my favorite recontextualization of a musical theme ever.
They were tied to the screen as many people were when Apollo 11 landed on the Moon, Sybock seems just to be amazed for the planet to look the same as it did in his visions. But Kirk, Spock and McCoy seem really unsettled, Kirk even seems to think something bad is going to happen sometime soon.
In a way, this movie always kind of had the scope and similar themes of Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. while LC was the superior film, i can't help but be reminded of Indy's leap of faith in the opening brass.
@@zangthrirstarker634 I don't know if it is co-incidence, but there are similarities between Goldsmith and Williams in 1981 ('The Second Coming' and 'The Map Room') as well. At least the structure of the cues and the overall effect. I think Williams' action style in 'Raiders' owes a bit to Goldsmith (e.g. 'The Desert Chase'). And Goldsmith's 'The Road To Masada' always reminds me of 'March of The Slave Children'. It's probably just co-incidence. I wouldn't want either composer to have scored any of each other's films. We were lucky to have both at work in movies.
Not a perfect film by a long shot! But there's a good film in there somewhere... one film I hope they do a remake of someday. And the music is beautiful!
I mean he should still exist. The Kelvin incident- which was the point of divergence- was after his birth. Though how they might choose to portray him is anyone’s guess. Khan turned from a tall muscular Hispanic man to a skinny Englishman
Star trek 5 was not as bad as people want to say it was. Hell the first movie was long and boring but still got good reviews. And Star trek 5 did have some good and very funny moments .. and it's soundtrack was very good as well.
thats because it is... the same motif was used, on purpose. also appeared briefly in a voyager episode, at the end of Year Of Hell, with the captain sitting alone on the bridge, just before the final battle.
This track brings tears to my eyes every time I hear it. Jerry Goldsmith really nailed it on this soundtrack.
This guy IS Star Trek
One of best movie music pieces ever !
I love this score, I can just see in my head the scanner display showing a Klingon Bird of Prey de cloaking. It really matched the scene, and was very subtle directing.
This was the best thing about this movie,Goldsmiths score that is.
The best music ever conceived and performed for cinema.
That harmony change at @3:32 =Gold!!❤️
One of my favourite pieces of music..
I love this movie.
"I seek proof"
"THEN HERE IS THE PROOF YOU SEEK!"
Maybe the best Trek theme ever-amazing.
Well, it IS from the best Trek movie ever, so why not?!
@@luckyday4146 good theme, but the best Trek movie ever is Wrath of Khan.
@@TheShadowfigment Well, that's just ,like, your opinion, man.
The very reason I practice my Connery impression every time I watch it.
"What is it you seek?"
"What you sheek. What all men have shought shinsh time began."
I play this piece when I dream about my forever lost sweet, loving, tender and devoted girlfriend.
Majestic! Memorably musical masterpiece. Love this tune.
Great piece of music with the Klingon motif buried within.
I love this movie and this score is just wonderful. A beautiful piece of music.
thanks

One of Goldsmith's best work. If only the movie was as good as it's soundtrack.
I used to think that. And then I saw what Abrams crapped out and I thought: Shatner didn't actually do that badly on Star Trek V in retrospect.
I am glad Goldsmith reused parts of this theme for First Contact. It is too good to be wasted on a dog like ST:V
An exquisite theme, far outstripping the scene it squired. What a gorgeous piece. Thank you.
My favourite track on the album.
a piece of its own .. a true standalone
Star Trek V often judged for the poor story and other stuff
really is one of my favorites for the great soundtrack
3:44 Klingon vessel: Bird of Prey in quadrant. Recommend activation of defence systems.
Please note the gentle use of the klingon theme here.
I love the subtlety of this scene. The music mixed with the direction. Bill Shanters direction nails this scene along with the soundtrack.
Love how it briefly fades into the Klingon theme when the bird of prey appears on the scanner
My favourite part of the music begins at 1:42!!!.
Jim you don't ask the almighty for his ID.. Great line
This is my favorite piece from the score.
This is just perfect
"We have traveled far!"
''By starship.''
"Sybok…..... perhaps......"
I was ten years old when this movie came out. I used to yell “we have traveled far” when I was outside playing just to see if I could hear my echo.
Mark J. Beukema Me too, on both your points 😃
That soundtrack clearly deserved a better movie!
The movie is great.
I heard Goldsmith turned down being the composer for ST6 because of the bad box office of this one … but we’re all thankful he came back for some of the later TNG movies!
The movie stunk but Goldsmiths score was outstanding.
It was decent, the film that is
@@rikardandersson5582 It was better than decent. This was the best STAR TREK movie ever!!!
@@johnburke6332 I agree, to me this is still the best film of the franchise and the score is so beautiful in its grandeur.
Absolutely my favorite film composer and this score is amazing. It far outstrips the film.
This scene, I've been there. It's located near San Francisco.
This motif makes a comeback in Star Trek Picard Season 3 Episode 6 when they reactivate Data
Brave souls welcome
This film might not have the best rep but the soundtrack is truly amazing
Good enough that it amuses me and anyone else within earshot.
Right before the nightmare is about the begin, featuring our (un)friendly neighborhood demonic non corporeal entity!
Zap!!!
The irony is that they originally wanted Sean Connery as Sybok.

Perhaps you see what you want to see. If you recall, the diplomats from Nimbus were in complete awe of what they saw.

SawdustProductions You’ve made a good observation. I hadn’t seen to connection between the two pieces until now.
They both came out in the same year.

Bird-of-prey - a light frigate, frien'
What does God need with a star ship
BRING your ship to me now I must have your ship
@SPeacock no he's referring to Zefram Cochrane from First Contact
@thx291 Perhaps it's a Vulcan's idea of paradise. After all, Vulcan is a desert planet.
LOL!
why does god,need a starship??!
This piece is as good as the movie is bad.
Does Sybok exist in the new timeline?
Knowing Hollywood… they will probably turn Sybok into a woman if he exists in the Kelvin Timeline.
Do you know who that is..? Michael Burnham.
The mutineer!
I mean he should still exist. The Kelvin incident- which was the point of divergence- was after his birth. Though how they might choose to portray him is anyone’s guess. Khan turned from a tall muscular Hispanic man to a skinny Englishman
You should do a comparison vid.

How good is your Connery?

I just did a brand new 2018 re-recording of this amazing piece. Goldsmith is one of my favorites! ruclips.net/video/hEoVSfv9Kzs/видео.html
hmmm, kinda sounds like the first contact theme
thats because it is... the same motif was used, on purpose.
