    This score is so perfect for the atmosphere of the story. It's bleak, alienating, unsettling and even terrifying at times, but also fascinating and dreamlike. It's exactly as I imagined Airstrip One to sound when I first read the book.
    Also, it contrasts perfectly with the much more old-fashioned orchestral music used by The Party, like "Oceania, Tis for Thee." This music is totally different than that.

    Dave Stewart personally dismissed this music ever being available and appeared to be totally ambivalent about its whereabouts.I know this because I wrote to him a few years ago asking about the isolated score. The original Virgin records 'For the love of Big Brother' soundtrack was one of my first albums and has truly endured over the decades. Watching the film and hearing the variations was both wonderful and cruel as fans of the official release knew that these alternative versions must exist somewhere and it seemed a music-crime that they weren't available without dialogue from the film over the top of them. I cannot thank you enough for finally scratching a nearly forty year old itch by uploading this. I'd happily buy this as an album, don't really understand why a deluxe reissue complete with this score has never been released, it seems a bit of a wasted opportunity for the band to make some extra cash rather than watch people copying lower quality audio from TH-cam. That said, I'll happily settle for what we have here as it's exactly the thing obsessive types like me have been gagging for, decade after decade. THANK YOU

      Is it true that they agonised over this score.....it took alot longer than they imagined it would, and it nearly split them up? or is this just fiction? It's maybe why neither Dave or Annie talk about this score or the shortened resulting album soundtrack. I just think both the original score, and resulting album are masterpieces. So ahead of their time. They still sound fresh today.
      Eurythmics weren't the only group to put their reputation on the line and completely get out of their comfort zone - U2 did the same 11 years later with their 'Passengers soundtrack'. Like Eurythmics '1984', that too is a criminally underrated album, and also a masterpiece.

      Although the Eurythmics were commissioned to write the incidental music for the film, in the end only "Julia" was used (for the end credits). The director Michael Radford preferred and mostly used the more traditional compositions of Dominic Muldowney in the film. This may help explain the enigmatic publication history of Eurythmic's 1984 score (I have the original cassette tape somewhere).

    I was born in 1979 and thus my infancy was in the 80's, despite the best endeavours of folks from church and teachers to bring colour and vibrancy-
    Thatcher's UK proved to be a bleak and confusing time. The trips from Devon to Scotland on the trains of 'British Rail' could easily fit into the backing music that this album provides... trains stopped for no real reason in the middle of the Lake District and Borders (sometimes for hours on end). Few, very few really enjoyed the 'high-life' while the rest of us were at the mercy of the authorities - and the 'truth' being belched out by the corporations and corrupt TV presenters.
    fast forward to present day of the Rt Hon Pritti Patel in charge of the present day Home Office (Ministry of Truth) and life seems full-score back to the dystopian vison this music evokes.

      For the benefit of some others who have posted in gratitude but without the same awareness of what's actually presented here, I'll clarify that this is the part of the soundtrack to "1984" that Eurythmics recorded that got used in one of two forms of the film's original release, the other largely featuring music by Dominic Muldowney (but also stapling "Julia" onto the credits, which is why Eurythmics are credited at all in that version). The Muldowney soundtrack is what director Michael Radford insisted on and is used on the long-overdue DVD release...but the Eurythmics soundtrack was included as an alternate audio track, and that's what this is (and why it's notably separated from overlying movie sound).
      The "Nineteen Eighty-Four (For the Love of Big Brother)" album Eurythmics released around the same time (late 1984) carried the loaded-understatement disclaimer "Music derived from Eurythmics' original score of the motion picture '1984'." Music you hear in this TH-cam post appears in quite different but recognizable form on the Eurythmics album; for example, what is here the wave-upon-sonic-wave "Julia and Winston" (as appropriate for what's happening in the film) takes song form on the album as "For the Love of Big Brother." Three or four other tracks on the album reflect material that was incorporated in what got used; "Doubleplusgood," "Greetings from a Dead Man," "Winston's Diary," and "Sexcrime" didn't make it to the final soundtrack cut, except in that "Sexcrime" is just "Room 101" in a major key and with chirpy stuff and a melody.
      Some of us saw this film in its theatrical release with the Eurythmics score, but most people didn't. I know it was also included on at least one US form on VHS, because that's the form I have it in.
      Thanks again, Coda, for posting this. Obviously we're not alone in our appreciation of it!

    Back in the day I was a big eurythmics fan. I remember buying this on cassette, sticking it in my walkman and being blown away. It was strange, bizarre. And then I realized it was recorded in reverse! My cassette was laid down backwards! I went back and changed it but I kinda wished I'd kept it. I think a lot of this album is done in reverse and that cassette was done on purpose.

    • @Euracaille
      @Euracaille 7 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      Actually some of it was done in reverse, evidently--certainly the opening of "I Did It Just the Same" on the "Nineteen Eighty-Four" album, which was "Dead Insects" on this soundtrack. Myself, I found the album track "For the Love of Big Brother" (which in the soundtrack is "Julia and Winston") to be surprisingly countable on two different starting beats, so maybe there's some reverse-recording basis for our impressions.

    What perfect timing Orwell's book in 1984 exactly the time of Eutythmics. None could compose more beautifully, capturing the feel and soul of Orwell's 1984 enigma! Most creative and unforgettable soundtrack ever!

      I like the soundtrack as a stand alone album, but it was completely wrong for the movie. Edgy 80's synth music was really out of place.

    @marcelo_1984 ปีที่แล้ว +8

    Thank you so much for that. It's a tragedy that they never did anything else again even remotely close to this kind of music. 1984 is my favorite Eurythmics album by very, very far.

  • @AW-kr9fl
    @AW-kr9fl 5 ปีที่แล้ว +23

    Michael Radford made a brilliant adaptation but he was completely wrong about the score if you read about the controversy surrounding it. The Eurhythmics score is far superior and suits the bleak, hopeless dystopian atmosphere perfectly, so much so that I can only watch the version with the Eurhythmics score instead of the orchestral one. Especially the piece at 4:00

    • @marcelo_1984
      @marcelo_1984 ปีที่แล้ว

      In all fairness to the director, who could imagine Eurythmics being able to come up with this kind of music at the time? They had never done anything similar nor have they ever done anything like it afterwards.

  • @fnfallout5664
    @fnfallout5664 ปีที่แล้ว +15

    Interesting score, it gives a very surrealistic tone for the movie in my opinion, which i suppose fits for the world of 1984 and the mind of Winston.

    I first saw the movie in my high school film study class. The teacher had the OST on vinyl and offered to make tapes for any one who wanted one, circa 1996. Loved it ever since. This is the first time i've seen the actual score surface! good on you!

    Room 101 on the album is unparalleled. The electric guitar is sublime. My favorite Eurythmics album... took This City Never Sleeps template into Orwellian depths. The quality of the sounds on this treasure (I am so grateful was uploaded ) are pitch perfect to the book. The movie had so much potential but was a victim of editing and compromise. The colors and atmosphere and actor choices had so much potential. These sounds are just phenomenal... singular... mesmerizing... Thom Yorke seems like the biological descendant/replicant of this base code... ;)

Used to have the album on a cassette back in the day...long gone now :-/ (wasn't there some dispute between the band and the record company that meant it wasn't reissued?). That countryside from the frame above - I used to live in the part of England (Wiltshire) where this section was shot, amidst its beautiful chalk hills. They do look like that and they are wonderful.

    I was a big fan of Eurythmics growing up, but when I first discovered their 1984 album I noticed it was quite different until I realized that it is a soundtrack. Then I've been curious to what made Dave and Annie agree to make a soundtrack to a grim controversial film after 3 albums. But after years of listening to the album and finding this score proves to show how capable they are at experimenting different material and pulling off different and intriguing sounds.
    Now I think it would be cool if Annie Lennox and David Stewart were to get back together, picture themselves back in the 80s, and make music for Stranger Things!

    • @garthlyon
      @garthlyon 3 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      Actually it was the other way round. The Eurythmics were commissioned to do the whole film score, but the money men didn’t like it, and only “Julia” (I think from memory) was used for rolling the closing credits. The Eurythmics themselves were shocked by the treachery, and went ahead and released the whole score themselves, while the original score was forgotten. What is remembered is the Eurythmics film score even if the bulk was not actually used in the film. One in the eye for Big Brother.

    • @marcelo_1984
      @marcelo_1984 ปีที่แล้ว
