I met him in 1982 at a Licorice Pizza in Southern California. He was with a little known bad called Oingo Boingo :P. He was in there moving 45 singles and he and the band would autograph them. He gave me one for free and autographed it for me, along with the rest of the band. I have absolutely no idea what happened to it (which is sad). He was very cool back then, but you could see the genius in his eyes. He looked like a mad scientist! Back then he used to wear like eye liner I believe to emphasize his eyes. I was 9 years old when I met him!
I wish I could tell him face to face how very special his music is to me and how as a fan of his I truly do appreciate his artistry and vision and how without him those movies would not have been the same.
Dane Youssef Maybe, but like most brilliant people, he seems to have no idea just how amazing he is. I wish I could have been a fly on the wall when he worked on the PeeWee soundtrack.
I remember when the Beatles Anthologies were released, and then the Beatles' scores, Recording the Beatles, etc were released later, and exactly the things i found most 'meaningful' were those early recordings of songs with different instrumentation, different accompaniment, and even in a different meter altogether ("i'll be back" was originally 6/8 before they adapted it to 4/4 so John could take breaths) :) Those scraps, the unused/early bits, are how you learn about someone's creative process or thinking process, and if you can access that level of understanding, you REALLY come to understand the composer, and it ultimately can make the music more meaningful because you see where it started and where it ended up but you know exactly how they got there... it's demystifying while simultaneously augmenting our respect/'love' for the artist. So excited this kind of stuff gets held onto by 'mildly' obsessive people (like me)!!! :O ;)

I'm sure he hears that at least a trillion times a day....

He's so blissfully unaware of his genius.
I agree with you...
Why has he YET to win an Oscar?!?
I fully agree with you!
Elfman is the reason I became a composer. His scores dominated my childhood television set.
😯💯👏👏👏👏
Danny Elfman gets it.
