Background scores always sets the tone. Writing is key yes, but you can have a craptastic scene and once the background music sets the scene is always elevated to a whole other level. Try editing that scene without music and/or use the generic one YR currently uses and the scene falls flat. YR's scores were always superb, especially the one showcased in the OP. GH had a few that were gold that they also played during emotional scenes typically when the characters were on the docks. It was almost haunting and fantastic but they completely stopped using it. Damn shame.

Well, they didn't do away with them completely.. but they certainly don't use them nearly enough. I was stunned as all hell to hear them use one of the 70's pieces in Victoria's wedding episode. And it's one I haven't heard in 20 years (at:47)

But they certainly don't use score in general nearly as much as they need to be.
