Easy, go and watch the London Symphony Orchestra or the London Philharmonic Orchestra anytime they do one of their Sci-Fi or John Williams evenings at the Royal Albert Hall or The Barbican Theatre. They are normally on a couple of times every year £40 a ticket. I've been twice and it's like the soundtrack CD is playing YOU! Outstanding, especially when they perform Duel of Fates, that is a masterpiece. I refuse to hate The Phantom Menace because of that piece.
I love how the Empire's motif is put into the begining of the score. It shows the Galactic Empire in his maximum power, as a relentless, unstoppable, oppressive giant that destroys everything that opposes it with great force and efficiency.
0:00 Rebel fleet of one Mon Calamari ship and a few x-wings come across a star destroyer causing the Mon Calamari ship to desperately attempt to send out as many fighters as possible. 0:50 Mon Calamari ship is now severely damaged and tie fighters seem to outnumber the rebel ships. 1:18 Single X-wing fighter desperately flees into asteroid field. The pilot is stressed due to the asteroids in front and the pursing tie fighter squadron at the back. 1:59 Tie Interceptors start to catch up to x-wing 2:17 A-wing fighter approaches from behind, destroying the pursing tie fighters and tie interceptors then eventually catches up to x-wing. They both move for a counter attack destroying surviving tie fighters 2:40 Both rebel fighters emerge from asteroid field only to come out near the star destroyer from before and shortly notices them afterwards 3:05 Just as the star destroyer is about to eliminate both rebel fighters, two Mon Calamari ships come and start immediately obliterating the star destroyer 3:22 Star destroyer is annihilated and the two rebel fighters calmly go towards the two Mon Calamari ships. 3:43 On the other side of the asteroid field, a larger imperial fleet approaches, one of them being a super star destroyer. 3:56 A large figure wearing all black with a light saber to his side looks onward towards the rebel fleet. 4:08 Figure makes a single haunting breath of a inhale and exhale.

This music traumatized me when I was younger and playing Shadows of the Empire on N64 on the space mission where the Star Destroyer gets closer and closer to you.
I'm surprised nobody has commented on 0:27. You can't hear this bit in the film as there is too much going on. I was in my car last night blasting this and it nearly cracked my doors when it got to this bit. Talk about 'feel the force'. Jesus.

It is just unbelievable how Star Wars space battle is one of the best thing man (Lucas) ever created. That´s why I freaking love this sheat. Oh, nice plot by the way by you.
yeah that kessel run part of the movie was one of the best parts. I thought it was a pretty good movie actually. People are being a little over critical I think
Yeah I agree, its was a "good movie" in my opinion, nothing to write home about, but still. its more star wars. It was fun, but no empire strikes back. Unfortunately there will never be a star wars as good as the originals
Track 6, "The Asteroid Field".... sends the 'tingles' up the back of the neck. My all-time favourite track of the whole "Star Wars" franchise. Another contender would be the title track of "Field of Dreams" by James Horner.
This among a few other of the songs in Star Wars soundtracks is what gave me a love of orchestral music. The asteroid field scene was always a favourite movie sequence of mine.
It's the best storyline. I'd also say, even without a Death Star attack, it has the most action too. New Hope and Return are up there, but they're not as good.
This was playing in my head as I drove through Tijuana on my way to Ensenada. Totally fit! Talk about a hair-raising experience! Here to tell the tale.
As epic as the Imperial March is, and as beautiful as Yoda's Theme and Han and Leia's Theme are, this is my favorite track on this soundtrack and top 5 in all of Star Wars
2:17 One of the most epic, goosebump-inducing moments in film score history.
Han Solo has been hyping up his ride for two movies and in this scene you realize he was really underselling how badass it is.
Easily the most thrilling cue in the history of film music.
YES! When the Tie-fighter gets smashed......Best cinematic moment of my life...I was 7, I'll never forget it!
Sounds like Elfman's Batman motif.
John Williams I love you.
+Logan Wood by han solo
I know
And I love you Steve Harvey
Anthologik American Hater Telling you love someone, whilst having that name, is by the best one in the world... a bit misleading
Just saying 🤷🏽♂️
Play this weaving through traffic...trust me it makes getting to work so much fun especially when the police are chasing you
LOL
HAHAHAHAHA
Thanks man, you made my coffee spray through my nostrils! ☺️
HAHAHAHA
Yah those tie crown vics are relentless.
Han " never tell me the odds."
C-3PO: I just did!
I'm yet to hear a concert of this song where it gets 2:18 right, you just can't sound like that, the London Symphony Orchestra is too godly.
Seen Williams conduct the Boston pops, sounded like a studio recording.
Esteban Cuadra if a drum corps did this you’d be in for a wild ride
Just went to one, and they did it perfectly

@@deanfox3067 just because the movies are pretty mid tier compared to the originals, doesn't mean the music isn't on par
THE BEST STAR WARS SONG, PURELY FOR 2:18
Mookus YEEEESSS
Star Wars piece, or track*. A song is music with voice.
It's so good!
@@alvarostockle Is that true?
@@FiggsNeughton yes! I was being noisy tho back then, but yes, that's the way of saying it.
C-3PO: The odds of surviving an asteroid field are 13,720 to 1!
Han: NEVER TELL ME THE ODDS
In the arcade game he says never tell me the odds first so C3PO is just being a jerk
C-3PO - 3,720
Dr. Strange - 140,000,605
@@gochem3013 never tell me the odds!
GochEm 30 Doctor Strange: The odds of us defeating Thanos are approximately 14,000,605 to one.
Tony Stark: Never tell me the odds!
I like those odds
I love how the Empire's motif is put into the begining of the score. It shows the Galactic Empire in his maximum power, as a relentless, unstoppable, oppressive giant that destroys everything that opposes it with great force and efficiency.
You articulated exactly how this piece makes me feel 👍🏻
2:18 is fucking epic but 3:26 always gives me chills... just awesome. john williams is one of the best composers if not the best of all time
The best Film of the Classic trilogy and the best Soundtrack of all.
the best film of the saga
"Chewy, lets get closer to one of the big ones." Princess and C3PO, "CLOSER!?"
"Horizontal boosters. Alluvial dampers. Ow. That's not it, bring me the Hydrospanner. I don't know how we're going to get out of this one."
When they remade the theme at 2:17 in SOLO, I wanted to cheer so badly, it was so AWESOME
exactly why im here
I had such a loud fit when it played I got yelled at by the others going to see it
John Williams is the best composer ever which is why he is my favorite movie composer alongside Hans Zimmer and Jerry Goldsmith.
Han Solo is a hypocrite.
Episode IV: “Great shot, kid, that was one in a million!”
Episode V: “Never tell me the odds!”
3 years changes a man
"Do as I say, not as I do."
He's Corellian, pride is their way of life
Well note he never said anything about *himself* not stating the odds of something...he just said never *tell him* the odds.
John Williams is a mastermind genius super duper composer!!!!
I love the part from 0:00 to 4:15
* sad 4:16 noises *
Who else gets goosebumps at 2:18? Just me?....ok

Nope, not just you.
2:18 brings me back to my days as Dash Rendar.
I almost cried almost I love that bit
+Denise Mccafferty I played this when I was running the mile at school and I teared up. So I was running and crying at the same time.
2:18 Super cool music!
ikr
one of my favorite soundtracks in the movie
Julian Shipp Me too.

Me
Max Frankow That Kessel Run scene in general got me so pumped up
Max Frankow me
Lol "kill the past" and they even reused the soundtrack
Does put a smile on my face.
holy shit that trumpet rip is godly 2:33

Honestly one of my favorite soundtracks ever... still just as powerful as the first time I heard it.
Der Anfang ist am besten.💪
My all time fav Star Wars theme!
same
It goes from good to awesome at 2:18
LIES!!!!! IT GOES FROM AMAZING TO GODLY AT 2:18!
Wrong, it goes from godly to undescribeable at 2:18. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
JESUS CHRIST THIS IS SUCH AN UNDERRATED SONG AND I LOVE IT!
im not sure any star wars song is underrated
+skeleton kampf Oh... you're right. What's your favorite Phantom Menace song?
+TheOneTrueLlama the one where Anakin says good bye to his mother
I know "duel of the fates" is way overrated...

I heard this in Solo film. Was amazing
Love the part at 1:16. It almost sounds like some sort of dance and it works fantastically in the context of an asteroid field.

Why doesn't this have more likes???
I dunno, only if i could animate. XD
I literally got my model ships and started to play with them by that.
Cool
It is just unbelievable how Star Wars space battle is one of the best thing man (Lucas) ever created. That´s why I freaking love this sheat. Oh, nice plot by the way by you.
one of the best tracks in a Star Wars movie ever !!! 2:17 pure magic !!!
Got so giddy when I heard this in Solo!
The whole Kessel Run scene in Solo made grin like an idiot
Wuppet same
Once that main Asteroid Field theme started playing, I couldn't help but smile. Shameless nostalgia? Sure, but it's fun to indulge in it nonetheless.
yeah that kessel run part of the movie was one of the best parts. I thought it was a pretty good movie actually. People are being a little over critical I think
Alaric Niemi I enjoyed it, but mostly due to visuals and cinematography. I thought the story and characters were alright, but nothing breathtaking.
Yeah I agree, its was a "good movie" in my opinion, nothing to write home about, but still. its more star wars. It was fun, but no empire strikes back. Unfortunately there will never be a star wars as good as the originals
2:18 The single best piece of music ever composed
John Williams really knows how to imitate the atmosphere of a scene within his songs.
THIS is a really good example.
Ladies and gentlemen, the goddamn London Symphony Orchestra!
Whenever I was in a big battle in any Star Wars game, it was even better when this music came on
Solo
2:18 always my favorite part
Track 6, "The Asteroid Field".... sends the 'tingles' up the back of the neck. My all-time favourite track of the whole "Star Wars" franchise. Another contender would be the title track of "Field of Dreams" by James Horner.
*sigh*..... yet another example of the brilliance of John Williams
Here, here!
I hear this music theme running from somewhere when I'm out on my bicycle dodging traffic! Love you Jonny Williams!
So good to hear this again in Solo.
One of my favourite star wars songs!!
This needs at least two like buttons really.
I watched this movie today and missed Carrie Fisher so mush
My favorite part of this piece is at 2:57 (even though it begins at 2:18), I get ASMR every time I hear it. John Williams is a modern Master.
The kessel run was amazing Solo surprised me in a good way.
Plo's Flow i know
2:18 was in the Solo movie, anyone else hear it?
@3:48 "I hope you know what you're doing."
"Yeah, me too."
Just saw Solo AMAZING movie but definitely not as good as the classic trilogy but hearing this music in the movie gave me chills
This among a few other of the songs in Star Wars soundtracks is what gave me a love of orchestral music. The asteroid field scene was always a favourite movie sequence of mine.
Anyone else here from Solo? From, y'know, THAT scene.
psychokitty444 I started to tear up a bit because this is my favorite Star Wars song.
I pumped the the air so hard and so suddenly, my dad had to turn around and ask if everything was okay. I think he thought I was having a fit.
Sooooo good :)
Me
Ugh, probably some cringe worthy stupid reference you're talking about that I don't want to hear about...
I was whistling this at work today. Dont know why it's stuck in my head.
gives me nostalgia
i remembr playing thw Lego Saga game while this music would bw playing in thw background
The Uncommon n00b Me too
Wow, the possibility of not getting chills listening to this is approximately 3720 to 1!
That bass player playing the pizz. at 2:18 and 3:05 must have been having a blast!!
"You don't have to do this to impress me"!
TH-cam knows what to recommend for me!
When I clicked on the video I was like this isn’t the song but then when I heard 2:18 I was like ok this it
Am I the only one who thinks this is the best Star Wars Movie?
nope I agree
Probably.
Most people do...
lol not in the least
It's the best storyline. I'd also say, even without a Death Star attack, it has the most action too. New Hope and Return are up there, but they're not as good.
I've heard this in the first LEGO Star Wars video game where this song was in Defense of Kashyyyk, the fourth level of Revenge of the Sith!
I love and celebrate the entire Star Wars music catalogue, but this track will always be my favorite!
This was playing in my head as I drove through Tijuana on my way to Ensenada. Totally fit! Talk about a hair-raising experience! Here to tell the tale.
This brings me way back even though I still love Star Wars
People keep talking about 2:18, but I gotta say 1:13 is pretty dope as well.
This is a masterpiece and 2:18 is flawless...
2:17 This is when I boost my lamborghini to 300 !
2:18 MMMMMMMMM those trumpets
I love how the music breaks down at 1:14.
The music is just superb
"Take evasive action!"
I'm a flute and Pic player. This piece is a pic. players dream.
As epic as the Imperial March is, and as beautiful as Yoda's Theme and Han and Leia's Theme are, this is my favorite track on this soundtrack and top 5 in all of Star Wars
This is Star Wars right here
The new Star Wars I am not a part of I am a person that died in Return of the Jedi
This song is amazing
1:54-2:42 some of the best music in the whole movie
R.I.P Guys on the Stardestroyer which was destroyed by an asteriod, you served the empire very well.
This is still awesome.
2:18... ugggh so much nostalgia in that one little section.
This is why this is my favorite film of all time!
Would play this as an endless loop when played Atari Asteroids back in the day 1981
Damn I remember those days on that one LEGO Star Wars level...I loved that level
The build up at 3:00 gives me goosebumps and then the soft parts at 3:21 warm my soul
John Williams: Star Wars's secret sauce! (Among many other things.)
2:18
Mi parte favorita
When they played this in Solo...
CCA Football Good going Han!
Nice flying Solo
Easily my favorite music in Star Wars so glad they put it in the new Solo movie
I can hear the dialog and all the space ship sound effects even if its absent
My favorite piece from the original trilogy, May the 4th be with you!
2:17
This better be on one of those new Star Wars rides
You’ll hear Han’s voice, “Never tell me the odds”
DROP 🎢
AHHHHHHHH!!!!!!
"Quer que eu sai e empurre?" 🤣🤣🤣🤣😂
Amazing...my favourite peice of Star Wars soundtrack ever!!
According to my brother, who is not a Star Wars fan by any means, I was giddy like a little girl when they played this during TLJ.
Thank you John Williams, very cool!
