The magic ear strikes again!
13 March 2013 08:19 pmSo I'm working on my buttonholes, watching the first season of "Lost in Space." I'm not terribly familiar with it, except to know that the theme music is familiar because the marching band of A Certain University That I Cannot Name (because I don't know which one) would play it during half time at Kyle Field. (That probably makes it OU or Texas Tech.)
Anyway! I'm only on the 8th episode, "My Friend, Mr. Nobody." And I'm paying only about 60% attention throughout, because I'm trucking away on my buttonholes. But then certain strains in the music would catch my ear. At least four distinct times, probably more, I had a distinct audio double-take. It sounded just like some of the quiet, mysterious themes from Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade. Totally weird! But I'm focusing on my buttonholes and on the story, and didn't consider further.
But I did expand the credits, just curious, and who did the episode music? "Johnny Williams."
Oh, yeah, that John Williams! Dang, I'm good! :D
ETA: Okay, I'm not that good. The same thing is in the next episode, and now that I'm thinking about it, it's from Raiders of the Lost Ark. The very, very beginning - the trek through the jungle to the temple, under the opening credits. Still, I don't think my ear is all that shabby!
