I was that person. :D

I haven't seen Ratatouille but yeah, Michael Giacchino's music is very recognizable.

Glad to see another MG fan. :)

I love this piece from Season 1. It's such a beautiful piece.

It starts at the 5 minute mark.

I've always been a huge admirer of Michel Legrand's work. Even though I wasn't alive when he was probably at the peak of his career, I've come to appreciate his work over the years.

I recently got a free copy of the Yentl DVD and I only watched because of Legrand's Oscar winning scoring. This guy is bloddy brilliant. I only wish there was a whole album devoted to the Yentl compositions without Streisand's singing (though very heartfelt and beautiful).

Too bad not a lot of his stuff is on YouTube, especially from Yentl. I was only able to find medlies, which don't each of the unique songs enough justice.

Here's a video with fellow composer and legend, John Williams, conducting the orchestra, and Michel Legrand playing the piano to Legrand's songs from Yentl.

Here's another medley video with the songs from Yentl, this time with a more string-centered arrangement, very beautiful.

Legrand is probaby best known for his Oscar winning scoring for Summer of 72, and his song The Summer Knows would eventually become a popular standard.

Here it is: Anyone who LOVES piano driven scores will probably LOVE this.

I first heard this piece in "No Reservations" and thought it was by Philip Glass since he was the composer of the film, but it's actually Mark Isham's music from "Life As A House".

Mark Isham's "Building A Family":

I nod/move my head to the music everytime I listen to it. LOL

    • Agree.  But I would describe him as being disappointed not bitter. 
    • >>><<< Great minds!  Kat certainly does prove that point. She's been given a lot to work with, so we shouldn't be bored of her anytime soon. I am interested in all her storylines at the moment, and curious how the show will use the affair to impact her romances and business stories. Well, what movie was it? Cause… I noticed it too. The first couple of seconds of the song were slightly different. OMG! Great call, precisely the same situation.
    • I think Kin was dissatisfied at GH in as much as Scotty had been pushed aside for Luke/Laura and the writing was doing him no favors as Scotty was now seen as an obstacle to their romance. So with his contract up he was offered big $$$ to move to Texas, which you can't blame him for. In addition to the money, I recall he was promised that Jeb would be a more dynamic character than Scotty. The money came through but not the story, so  don't blame him for being  slightly bitter.
    • My usual video hosting site, acct: shallotpeel Video title:  1997 Daytime Emmys abridged Soaps Only 1997 Daytime Emmys Awards Presentation Show, on 5-21-1977, in New York, at Radio City Music Hall, and featuring the Rockettes, in primetime, on NBC, with special hosts Susan Lucci & Regis Philben. First the Rockettes perform. Throughout the evening pre-produced segments will be shown highlighting each show & introduced by very special guests including Aretha Franklin & Wayne Gretzky. First award is presented by DAYS Eileen Davidson & Drake Hogestyn, Best Supporting Actress nominees are AMC Eva Larue, GH Vanessa Marcil, GH Jackie Zeman, Y&R Victoria Rowell & Y&R Michelle Stafford who takes home the gold, her 1st win & 1st acceptance speech where she graciously included all of the other nominees with her & shouted out Bill Bell who was shown in the audience.  Next, DAYS Mary Beth Evans & Stephen Nichols present Best Supporting Actor nominees GH Maurice Benard, GH Stuart Damon, GH Brad Maule, B&B Ian Buchanan, Y&R Scott Reeves & Y&R Aaron Lustig with Buchanan winning for his portrayal of James Warwick. His 1st win, he thanked Bradley Bell & then thanked Bill Bell Sr & Lee Philip Bell for having Bradley!

And, Elmo pulled a fast one on Rosie, about Oscar!!!  Regis introduced from AMC John Callahan & Eva Larue who presented for the Best Writing with nominees AMC, DAYS, GH & Y&R & it happened, a tie! So unusual & the tie was between AMC & Y&R so both of Irna's proteges gave an acceptance speech: Agnes Nixon for AMC & Bill Bell of course, for Y&R. AMC 4th win, 15 writers on their team. Y&R their 4th win with 10 writers on their team. The tie made it exciting.  Oprah Winfrey presented something I've edited out. And then she threw it to the GH show off segment.  Y&R Kristoff St. John, Victoria Rowell & Shemar Moore, presented Directing! The nominees GH, DAYS, AMC & Y&R & Y&R won it, their 6th win, Heather Hill accepting & she shouted out one of them who had passed this year.

Regis introduced the star of THIS show, Aretha Franklin who talked about how much she loves Y&R & specially Victor & the way he presents himself to a woman. (If Aretha says this, it must be true.) Then she threw it to the Y&R show off segment. Regis introduced  Watros, Newman & Zimmer & they presented Best Actress with the nominees AW Jensen Buchanan, GH Genie Francis, AMC Susan Lucci & Y&R Jess Walton, who proceeded to win it. 1st time. Erica Slezak made the presentation of Best Show with nominees AMC, DAYS, GH & Y&R. And getting their 5th win GH won the day. EP Wendy Riche accepting.  
    • A random thought - June is related to Hayley AND Tyrell and Samantha. Hayley and June are sisters separated when young. Years later June's children Ty and Sam end up being adopted into the Dupree family, coincidentally giving Hayley a further link to that family.
    • He spoke highly of the cast but was disappointed in his lack of story.  He was not disrespectful and he has the right to express his feelings.
    • I like Nicole the most, because she's the only normal person, even if she slides into psych-analyzing speak. I like Anita--but I suspect that's more about my attachment to Tamara Tunie. I'm on the fence about Dani--but I don't see her as the underdog vs. Nicole. Dani had her a fabulous life. Nicole might not have lived in her sister's shadow, but it seems like Dani gets the attention in the family.
    • I definitely wouldn't mind seeing him again. I understand.  BUT...a start.

    • Cody could have been Derek. He shows a lot more emotion in the scenes he gets than Gavin ever has.
