Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - quality music and good for WWII fans
My 2 kids (now in their 20's) grew up with this movie, and we always loved the music, which was such an important part of this movie, along with the historical setting of WWII. The music includes a little boy singing beautifully, a boys choir, military traditional, and some very descriptive serious contemporary (not pop) music. I am a classically trained musician, and I don't get tired of listening to it.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Empire of the Sun
I purchased this album really for the Welch hymn/kyrie that opens the movie. It is a wonderful piece of music and, as always, the entire album is great movie music.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Film music that justifies the genre
This is the music from the soundtrack of the film "Empire of the Sun". John Williams has created the perfect score for J.G. Ballard's epic story and Tom Stoppard's superb screenplay. Wedded to Stephen Spielberg's cinematic vision, the CD evokes a perfect movie experience in recollection. Everything comes together flawlessly... it is over an hour of technical and musical perfection. My CD library rejoices in its inclusion.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Empire of the Sun
The song Suo Gan
Stirs an undescriable inner feeling of strength, sadness and joy that evokes strengths in one beliefs.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Timeless
The soundtrack of this movie was undoubtedly instrumental in making Empire of the Sun the amazingly beautiful movie that it is. With the first track alone, SUO GAN, which is actually a Welsh lullaby and not a Japanese song, you'll find yourself riveted and drawn to the time and place and story of Jim. The beauty of listening to this soundtrack is sitting back, and reliving the scenes from the movie in your head. It is timeless, bittersweet and triumphant all in one.
