Chalk that status up to the great English composer John Barry, whose lushly romantic score has largely overshadowed the film it was written for. Note to Titanic fans: if you liked the score for that film, you may fall in love with (or to) this one as well. Ironically, much of the action of Somewhere in Time takes place in 1912, the year the Titanic sank. --Jerry McCulley | | | Product Details: | | | Audio CD Release Date:

A wonderful, haunting score by John BarryNov 27, 2009
The sound track of this film has been in my mind since I first watched the movie several months ago. The CD goes everywhere with me in the car and somehow all the other CD's I have now pale in comparison. I cannot get the music out of my mind and every time I listen to it, I can relive the scenes from this wonderful film whose scenes blend perfectly with the music. The score and the film are the result of a labor of love on the part of John Barry and the cast of "Somewhere In Time" as there was little support for this film which had a very limited budget.

I visited Mackinac Island in 1979.When I saw the movie,it tore at my soul and I never get tired of it.The words and music expressing their desperate love,at all costs,is something that is better than anything in life.To really feel love,is really worth more than all the money.I imagine we all have felt this way,maybe once or twice in our lives.Such a great movie.Words can't express how much I like it.

 great soundtrack!Sep 23, 2009
Item exactly as expected. Beatiful music. However, I ordered two copies and BOTH arrived with badly cracked jewel cases. I wrote to the seller to tell them of this problem, but they never offered to replace the cases. Jewel cases are inexpensive, so I just bought my own. But, seller should package better.

soundtrack Somewhere in TimeAug 07, 2009
I'm glad I happened upon this soundtrack after all these years. Had never seen the movie but bought it for a friend (and one for myself) who was visiting Mackinac Island this summer. Bought the soundtrack with the idea of giving it to her, also, but after watching the movie and hearing the hauntingly beautiful music decided to keep it for myself! (Maybe I'll get her a copy sometime..LOL) Now that I have discovered it I play it often; to me, it almost sounds like a "prayer".
(many might wonder what rock I had been living under not to have seen the movie or been aware of the music before now.......there is an answer to that)
BEST MOVIE category!!!! Awesome soundtrack.Jun 30, 2009
Christopher....this is how I remember you...God rest your soul.
(I get massages while listening to this CD.)
