Ok, look. In reference to the only thing in this thread that made me speak up before, I had ROTJ in my DVD player just now, so I got my Ace Of Spades mp3 ready, turned the TV down, and hit it right when the SW logo came on screen. I tell ya what, that was f*cking awesome! The "Episode VI" came up right before the verse started, and as the scroll started fading away, the breakdown of the song came. Then, if you let it go even longer, you get "AND DON'T FORGET THE JOOOKERRRR!" when the Death Star II is revealed! Kick ass!
Still, JW rules and I wouldn't have him do anything different and I wouldn't have anybody else do a SW score. But this was just great fun! LEMMY!!!!!!
Look in the interest of ending this pointless fight Let's look at it this way.
You may or my not like JW music that is your right and no one can deny that but don't call him a hack just say that you don't like his music. I don't like Britney Spears music but I would still **** her any time of the day because she hot and I respect that. But Just because I think she can't sing very well doesn't mean that I think she is a hack and should stop doing music some people love her music and thats all that matters. So the same goes for JW some people like him and some don't.
songwriter, composer same thingSongwriter is a composer. A composer isnt necessarily a songwriter. Again Composer is the term, main term, covering the lot songwriter is just one of the thing a composer could be. There is a lot more than just songwriter to describe a composer. Everyone who makes music is a composer but they are divided into different genres and songwriter is just one of those genres. JW makes ,mostly, symphonic instrumental pieces and these pieces are not songs
and i think that the way you were describinga songwriter made it sound more like a lyracistlyricist is exactly what a songwriter translate into in the Northern European languages
song=compositionsong =poetic composition.
I agree with it would be hard to imagine SW without the musical compositions of Williams, just because they are good doesnt mean all the stuff he touches is great. If you sit down and really listen to his different stuff you would find a lot of similarities in the buildup of his work

...orchestrator, arranger....blah blah blah

i see it that he has a style to his music. its his signature sound. every score cant be completely different thats why i like being able to show off my ear and say: "hey! this score was written by john williams!" its because i recognize his style and signature compostitions, just the same as me recognizing my best friends face.
