music and movies

Haha, nice discussion. Nope you're not weird and not the only one. I also listen to the music more than watching the movie. Music plays a large part in movies as they bring out the storyline more. Say romantic movies, when there's a section which displays love, the movie editor or whoever that's called, will insert the appropriate music into it, which makes it stand out more.

well, personally i pay attention to the music, i remember an episode of grey's anatomy where a patient is dying and then the song "how to save a life" was played, then i lost my attention to that episode cause i enjoyed the song very much lol.

Ironically I am a huge music lover, (rather listen to my music than any TV show or movie,) but when it comes to watching movies, the music does blend in unless it is from a group I know, then I pick up on the song right away..:)

I am always facinated by movie music as much as plot. I like to listen to the music that is played for different scenes. it is interesting to try to figure why certain music was used for certain scenes. What goes through someone's head as they determine the music for a movie?

yes I do that to... I even take down the lyrics of some music that I really like in a particular movie.. then I search it on the net. Although my attention is more to the movie itself, when the background song is just awesome I remember it.

i also pay attention to the music. i actually pay attention to everything so i usually have many comments and my bf sometimes says, "just shut up and watch or shut up and kiss me. " hehehe i am meticulous when it comes to watching movies.

Most of the time the music tends to blend into the background for me. The exception to the rule is generally when I watch a Martin Scorsese movie because he always fills his movies with an often brilliant and noticeable soundtrack. Movies such as Goodfellas and Casino are prime examples where he creates a great nostalgic feel through a very noticeable soundtrack. Plus when ever I hear Israel Kamakawiwo'ole's "Over the rainbow" used in a movie or on a show I just have to stop to listen as it is so perfect.

You are not weird. I'm always paying attention to music because I love it so much. It can actually make me happy, make me cry or make me scared. It sometimes can make or break a movie I think. I think music plays a big part when it comes to a show or movie. In fact I was just watching a movie the other day and I mentioned how this movie has a great music track to it. I wanted to sing all the songs in the movie. If I could remember the name of the movie I would tell you but I can't remember at this time. I only remember it was on the Lifetime channel.

I do pay attention too to the music of movies or tv series especially if I only hear it first time and the melody is cathcy. I wil do search for it and try to listen to youtube again and again.hahaha

Its usually happen in movies my friend. So when you listen music and watch movies enjoy them and don't think about that things. That things occurs you to get full entertain of music and movies.

I always pay attention to the music in movies. I'm very interested in cinema as an art form so I pay attention to everything in movie (camera work, acting, music, SFX, dialogue etc..) and music is a very important part of any movie so I pay close attention to it as well.

yes i do and i love it

There are times when the soundtracks attract me more than the movies.It doesn't mean that I dont like the movies, what I mean is that it is the music that touches me first. But most of the times, as for me, I find that its music is really important things to come into deeper spot of the heart.

yes i pay my attention to music when i watch movies if the song is good

The music does catch my attention when I watch something. It actually enhances my experience more. I hardly get peeved with a piece of music in a movie (or tv show). Tv shows tend to be on the mark about music because tv writing and production has to me slick and smooth. Movies have to be more picky in picking out songs for scenes. I also love movie orchestrations.

Movie sountracks contributes as well to the overall impact of the movie. The scene and the music complement each other. For me, music is like the 'bookmark' of a particular scene in the movie. Whenever you hear the song, you say ---aaahh! that song was play on this so and so scene in this movie.
