David Arnold - OHMSS Orchestral Cover VERY RARE VERSION
Вставка
- Опубліковано 3 жов 2024
- David Arnold's remix of the theme for On Her Majesty's Secret Service. Heard in his collab with the Propellerheads. However this is just the orchestral version. No techno or electronic sounds in this version.
All copyrights belong to David Arnold, John Barry and EON productions. This is a non profit video.
We often see the words 'very rare' used in videos and it turns out that it is something we have all heard hundreds of times before. This was an exception. At least for me. I had never heard this version of OHMSS before listening to this today!
This was on the CD single of David Arnold's version of On Her Majesty's Secret Service. An unexpected bonus gem when i was played it :-)
i've heard this version so many times ... also its not david arnold but the royal pharmallic orcherta during a bond night at the proms
@@chmarr Prove it. Not being awkward as i'd genuinely like to know where it originated but this is the version from the cd single and that just lists it as "Orchapella Version" copyright 1997 Warner Music UK as are the the David Arnold/Propeller Heads tracks.
True
The propellerheads’ remix of this exact piece is far more known
0:00 - 0:15 From Russia with Love
0:16 - 2:51 On Her Majesty's Secret Service
2:52 - 4:45 You Only Live Twice
4:46 - 5:37 On Her Majesty's Secret Service
A space march interlude! Eargasms.
It seems like these songs were meant to be remixed together!
From what From Russia With Love track is that taken from?
@@leonardotavaresdardenne9955 The title track
From 4:46 is also reminiscent of White Night from TND
David Arnold is the second best Bond composer after John Barry , IMO
Without a doubt. Excellent score to Casino Royale.
I'd personally rank Eric Serra on about the same level - his Goldeneye score was bloody amazing!
@@db13724 really, I always thought his score was the weakest part of an otherwise great Bond film
@@db13724 Hell no, his score barely feels like Bond, outside of a couple of tracks.
Mr Bill Conti sends you his most regarded two-footed flying kick to the face.
The cover image makes Lazenby resemble a "Thunderbirds" marionette.
Lulz yeah they did go a bit crazy with the airbrush.
@@peterfranks6243 I think they were talking about the painting not Lazenby himself.
Try checking out 'The Propeller Heads' version. Nine minutes long and it includes several Bond themes.
If only he could've acted as well as one 🤔
True but they were less wooden actors than Lazenby
Bring back David Arnold for Bond 25!!!!!
+Luvie1980 yes please!!!!! amen
+Chad Hetzel Hell for the entire rest of Bond film due to come out !
I've been saying this for ages. The Director/Composer combo of Martin Campbell and David Arnold is unbeatable. Arnold's music is fantastic - classic Bond!
Classic Bond yet Arnold got writer's block composing the soundtrack for "Die Another Day" and had to phone (the much more talented ) John Barry for inspiration at the time.
The above comes from the easily-available album "Shaken & Stirred: The David Arnold James Bond Project" (released in 1997)and so can not be qualified as "very rare". There are some interesting interpretations .
Westonelm I haven't heard it , Ill add it to my list
One of the best Bond themes and personally one of my favorite pieces of music I regularly listen to, thank you John Barry and the wonderful arrangements and musicians who had the honor to play this
"This never happened to the other fella"
David Arnold is the only composer after Barry that "got" the sound right. He uses the orchestra to great effect and more lushly. I mean check out Tomorrow Never Dies or World is Not Enough, hell even Casino Royale has some nice moments. In fact, Arnold was favored by Barry himself. Just wish David would return to the films. Newman's music has no personality and is awful.
I agree. David Arnold was the second best Bond composer. I hope he returns for Bond 25.
Agreed, Newman's Bond music just doesnt do it for me, but that might not be entirely Newmans fault as it seems like most modern blockbuster scores are just background music and thats whats inn right now. Newman has written many fantastic scores, but not any good Bond scores.
One of the few recent blockbuster movies, that I can recall, that allows the music to take center stage was Fury Road, even though the music in itself wasnt anything special,(even a bit obnoxiously loud at times) it was refreshing to see music and visuals work hand in hand, not just something in the background to give scenes forward momentum.
Josh Barron I liked Eric Serra's soundtrack for Goldeneye.
Michael Kamen rocked Licence to Kill, never forget
Newman even recycled parts of his music for spectre
David Arnold is briliant, he brings the John Barry style to a contemporary feel and at the same time he's not imitating he's creating his own style. Please bring him back ....and how the hell did the very over-rated Sam Smith score the the very first No1 in the UK for a Bond theme? It's certainly not the best ever theme.......
Sam Smith's theme is far from bad. It works very well with Bond
Thomas Newman's score for the last two Bond films is a bit perfunctory. I like Sam Smith's music but not the theme to Spectre. God knows how it won the Oscar for Best Original Song. Hans Zimmer has scored the new Bond film No Time To Die. I don't hold a lot of hope.
That’s extremely shocking. The Adele one was WAY better than that God awful Sam Smith one. It makes that horrible goopy octopus tentacle porn video of a title sequence much worse with his high pitched wailing. Just wait. I bet the shit one that Billie Eilish practically whispers will also make number 1. I had the volume up high and still struggled to hear what she was singing. Sounds like the microphone was too far away or she was whispering really, really quietly. What happened to the enthusiastic sounding themes? Why are they going with such trash? It’s like the worst ones of the Roger Moore era like the abysmal Moonraker theme or For Your Eyes Only. Sleeping pills trying to be artsy fartsy. They had a much better Blondie one for FYEO that they foolishly passed on. Wonder what better singers they passed on to settle on an overrated singer like Billie Eilish.
Kool Stan Tin maybe it’s the mixture of it with that goopy tentacle porn-esque title sequence or when he busts into a high pitched voice but it’s bad. It is weaved really well into the score but in the movie I almost think of those terrible Roger Moore ballads like the Moonraker one or For Your Eyes Only. I especially don’t like the Billie Eilish one. It sucks. It sounds like her voice is muffled and I could hardly understand the lyrics. What were they thinking? The Alicia Keys one, with all the hate it gets, is much better and more exhilarating than these lame ballads. The last good one they had was Adele. She captured the classic Bond theme voice in a modern way.
Adam Payn guess I’ll have to hear some of his music. The theme is better on it’s own but mixed with that horrendous goopy tentacle porn title sequence it’s cringey. Although the Billie Eilish one is trash. It’s worse than even the worst ones like Moonraker. I felt like falling to sleep because it was so somber and her voice was muffled so badly that you can hardly understand the lyrics. Who chose her? Wonder what better singers they glossed over before choosing her because she’s the it singer right now. It kind of reminds me of Tomorrow Never Dies. They had a much better theme by kd Lang but chose Sheryl Crow’s one that sounded like she had a sore throat with the most generic, run of the mill lyrics. Still , the shitty Eilish one is better than Die Another Day but that’s not saying much. You can’t get worse than Madonna doing a terrible bubble gum pop song with the most idiotic lyrics I’ve ever heard put into a song.
He perfectly sneaks in that cool theme of the space capsule from You Only Live Twice. Just excellent.
... And at the start it's remarkably like the opening to From Russia with Love (instrumental main title theme)..
@@markc4305 but of course
"This never happened to the other fella"
This is GENIUS-combining the OHMSS main title theme with the space opening scene music from YOLT-Somewhere out there,John Barry is smiling! David Arnold should STILL be scoring OO7 films-he is THE BEST composer for the Bond movie franchise since the legendary Mr.Barry!!!
Hit or miss elements in the film, but you can't deny the soundtrack is pretty much flawless.
George Lazemby did a great mistake when he refused playing Bond again
I would very much have preferred him over Moore to be Connery's successor. The stories as to why actually differ. One is that he was sabotaged from the beginning, the other is that he was a prick on set the whole time.
In fact he didnt refused..cobby Broccoli didnt want him again
Well, he was not a good actor, maybe he would get better with time indeed
Actually, without Moore the franchise wouldn´t be what it is today, which meant there probably weren´t the Dalton movies, which means both serious and funny-Bond fans and god beware, those who are both(like me),can be pleased.
George Lazenby was tricked by his agent into thinking Bond was just a silly passing trend thing , sadly he bought the argument :(
Now this is how to do a Bond theme right.
Man this makes me want to watch the old Blofeld quadrilogy in one sit down (or is it tetrology). In this order:
1) Thunderball2) OHMSS3) YOLT4) Diamonds Are Forever
Love this version. Best I've heard. Kudos to David Arnold for this brilliant version.
I love how it's a combination of " From Russia with love" at the beginning" , "On her majesty's secret service" for ye ain portion, and ends with a "you only live twice" feel
Wow! You really know your stuff.
Thank you for posting this. What a beautiful theme, so epic. Truly one of the best Bond themes from one of the best Bond movies.
sublime
10/10
4:46 sounds a lot like that one track in A View to a Kill that played during most of the action scenes.
It's called he's dangerous, John Barry sampled this theme to make it
Really? I never knew that. Do you know what bit he sampled :)
There's an AVTAK OHMSS inst mashup somewhere from City of Prauge Phil ..... Good stuff
Wow..very rare version, indeed. I swear..listening to (this) is like a drug of some sort... a combination of TimBurton, Wagner & JohnBarry
Tim Burton/Danny Elfman. Good
OHMSS. Never understood what it was. When I searched up James Bond OHMSS, Now I understood.
On Her Majesty's Secret Service
O H M S S
(Edit) That beginning was sick
this was one of my favorite books, the book of this movie. the portrayal of bond in this one captured his emotional side.
Man this is a stunning track to listen to.
3:54 When Mr. Incredible finds out about all the other dead supers.
You Right. I was wondering where I heard that part. I always consider the Incredibles to have more of a 60's spy vibe then a super hero one.
SUPERB!...EXCELLENT!
Wow, this is an impressive cover by David Arnold. With talent like this, you think the producers would've trusted him more often with picking the right singer or band for the title song. But half of the songs he wanted were either rejected, or bumped to the end credits.
sublime
10/10
Not bad. Bring back Bill Conti and Shirley Bassey . Audra Mae would be a great addition as a Bond singer.
Shirley Bassey cannot be topped.
Well... except for Moonraker.
I've recently gained a more favorable view of the movie, but the song is still poor. The more disco beat end credits version is much better
john barry's music is as important as the bond movies themselves, he had a fantastic ability/ear for melody. each bond movie had atmosphere created by his music and were soaked in the style of their time, this score was quite ahead of its time with the use of synth and gave it real atittude. there are great composers out there but i believe that the bond franchise lost so much when john barry finished scoring and barbra brocolli took over,.........things were never the same,the atmosphere was gone as were the actors that made these movies great.
Stephen Campbell Barbara Broccoli is mainly concern with money. she is no longer concerned with the style, traditions and classic tone set by his great father, Albert Broccoli. We no longer have that genuine Bond in the cinema but a copycat of Bourne. What a pity.
Very true. Ever since he died Barbara and Michael Wilson have let the quality of the franchise slip further and further away from what made the series great. Cubby Broccoli would never have let them get away with that horrible CGI stunt in DIE ANOTHER DAY. Also, when he was alive a new film was almost always released every two to three years. The only exception being the 7 year gap while EON fought that rights suit. Now we're lucky if a new film comes out at all.
I thought David Arnold was a worthy successor to John Barry but Thomas Newman ugh I wish he never allowed to score a Bond movie let alone two.
I disagree about Thomas Newman. I really enjoy the soundtrack to Skyfall and it suited the film, however I will concede that I felt that he made a lack lustre attempt with Spectre. There was a lot of copy and paste from Skyfall's soundtrack which in my opinion is poor given the gap of three years between the two films so he would have plenty of time to compose something unique for Spectre.
Stephen Campbell Until Casino Rayale
This is one of the best JBM scores ever, and the cinematography is also top notch!
This is a really good version!
I feel like the Incredibles is inspired by this or something
+monkeyjoe70 It was. The trailers even used it!
+monkeyjoe70 Oh, not just inspired by, more like straight up ripped from. Don't get me wrong, I loved The Incredibles, but whoever scored the track ripped from various Bond movies, including this, Moonraker and others. Yeah, it fit, but damned lazy.
+OmegaReaver John Barry was asked to compose the score for The Incredibles but he turned it down not wanting to copy his past work so they hired Michael Giacchino to do a very Barry inspired score for the Incredibles. It's not lazy, it's paying homage to Bond as well as Barry's style of music.
+OmegaReaver And filmmakers don't make trailers. Marketers do, and they'll use any underrated and unknown film score that exists.
That is the "official account", other sources said that JB didn't like the idea of having a supervisor.
B side to the Propellerheads single cd.
Did you know this OMHSS melody is very similar to the Golden Gate Bridge fight music is A View to A Kill?
Rare? This was B-side on the OHMSS single from David Arnold's Shaken & Stirred Project, and commercially released around the world. It is just a version of the single with Propellerheads parts removed.
+Andrew T. Llewellyn Where can I buy this single?
+Lu-Hiep Phan there's several for sale on eBay. just search for "On Her Majesty's Secret Service Propellerheads"
Thanks. I wish David would have released a second volume with just the instrumentals. Make it a double disc release.
This film had the best music in it the sound track is a classic.
David Arnold is the John Barry of our time. 😃
"This never happened to the other fellow."
Please bring David Arnold back for the next Bond movie. With if possible a theme song with vocals by singer Lara George ( from Graeme Ventris). David Arnolds music has the real fine John Barry touch from the Bond movies from the past when Bond movies were great!
That was nothing short of spectacular! Thanks for sharing.
This is great! I think I like David Arnold's version better than the original even.
No.
moodyguymick yes the original had no soul to it
This was the best bond movie !
NO.
YES.
True
Not the best but top 5 easy
The only place OHMSS was lacking was in fight choreography. Everything else was absolutely gorgeous. The story, the emotion, the visuals (they actually filmed the Piz Gloria segments on location, even much of the internals. That is some serious and admirable dedication), it was all a gloriously beautiful film... and ended the right way. It would have been all too easy to give the happy ending and save Tracy's death for the beginning of the next film, but that is not the way it was in the book.
I only wish they went one step further and had "We Have All the Time in the World" playing during the end credits, with the bullethole in the windshield still visible on screen. Would have added that extra emotional sting.
This is brilliance.
I Would Love To Say Thank you Mr David Arnold For This Musical Remake of On Her Majesty's Secret Service
This was one of the most impacting Bond movies of its time it got rid shundrer it was about bond at his best.
Arnolds version of "Space Capsule" at 2:55 is beyond description.....
Beautiful! Thank you for posting!
CameronM1138 My pleasure.
Thomas Newman showed no respect for John Barry in his scores for Skyfall and Spectre. Bring back David Arnold for Bond 25!!!
De acuerdo contigo
the musical scores arent dramatic anymore thats were there missing
are u single
Triple A, it's not.
@Triple A they werent specially bad, but they werent at the level of a Bond movie. They sound like generic action movie soundtracks while we have been acostumed to other type of scores that used the bond theme as a clue
great version!!
“Fancy meeting you here Fraulein!!” I was about 8 years old the first time I saw OHMSS. The part where Irma Bunt jumps out of bed scared the shit out of me and I literally had to stop watching the movie, because I thought it was going to happen again. A masterful villain and she murdered his wife....The Queen of Thorns. I love OHMSS. I’m an obsessed Bond fan and this is definitely one of my top favorites forever.
a touch of Snow Job (5:00) from A View to Kill!
Got to be up there with the best bond movies, possibly the best of the lot. It has everything, plotline, characters, action sequences, great music...brilliant. Lazenby was not half as bad as some people make out too. He really ought to have done more.
One of the best, massively underrated. Bond actually shows some serious character development in OHMSS, and Casino Royale might be the only other one when he does.
Nobody watches Bond for character development:
He's a cold blooded assassin for HM, and an absolute lady killer.
End of story, thanks.
@@danjonmills Ian Fleming thought it was a good idea for Bond to have character development.
Don’t know why this wasn’t included on the remix album he did
This is an absolute masterpiece!
sublime
Fantastic piece of music. They should remake OHMSS and use this for the new Bond
Omg, what beautiful remix!!
Just remember folks, OHMSS is the 2nd strongest entry's in the bond franchise. After Casino Royale, in other words
OHMSS is a fucking masterpiece.
sublime
10/10
My fav !
Would've been fine with me if this was For No Time to Die instead of what he got.
Get me some skis and a Walther PPK! I could take down all of SPECTRE to this tune.
Grew up with the bond films, nothing will ever beat John Barry's original music, but David Arnold comes close.
It still sounded better than Hans Zimmer's version used in NTTD.
Awesome!
Nice.
The OHMSS theme is by far the best piece of music in any Bond film.
Also Lazenby should have done more than just this one.
Very well done remix! Connery classics along with OHMSS
The feel is very different t to Go ldfinger. However, it is relevant and works. Lazenby would have lost his wooden persona as he would have developed. There were parts of ohmss that were superb. Eg. The initial part at the casino table. He owned ii. Such poise and and ease.
Wow, what a great treasure this is! OHMSS is by far by the best Bond Score (for me) and I love this version of it. David Arnold always did a great job of honoring John Barry while adding more depth and deeper orchestrations. I love how he weaves in the "Capsules in Space" from YOLT.
The Propeller Heads copied arrangement with synthesizers back in the nineties. Also good.
This never happened to the other fella!
Miss you Tracy, always!!!
3:07 this part was in You Only Live Twice but still sounds good in this video.
George lazenby stepped right into the role and took it over instantly
Listening to this, with From Russia With Love, on in the background, on the television. 8D
Wonderful version!
3:00 THE SPACE CAPSULE IN SPACE
Try playing this with the Halo Reach theme song on at the same time. It's sooooo good.
1.Connery
2.Brosnan
3.Lazenby
The best period.
The best Bond! The best Bond theme!
David Arnold is such an awesome composer! I love this cover of OHMSS!
nice rendition BUT, I still prefer the original......shaken, and not stirred
If George Lazenby did 6 films in his tenure from On Her Majesty’s Secret Service to Moonraker - I bet On Her Majesty’s would get a remastered and extended cut with new/unused music cues (like this here for the title sequence) and any deleted scenes restored.
Imagine that dudes!
This is amazing! Where did you found this version if you don't mind telling?
I found it here and reuploaded it after the original video got deleted.
Propellerheads... re-duex...
excellent . Best Bond/Barry cover I've ever heard. I heard bits of From Russia With Love in there as well (at the very beginning) , and Capsule in Space from You Only Live Twice
The music it's magnificent equivocally superlative in the moment
🗣 "We need some more Bond Music,...That's JAMES BOND !!!"
d((👁_._👁))b🤳💜
j'aime tous les acteurs qui ont joué JB, je ne peux pas en désigner un plus ou moins bon,
bravo 007, fais nous vivre beaucoup d' autres aventures!!
sounds like the john barry suite
After Barry, I did not like any other soundtrack. They don't have his talent.
Decent rendition.
i heard it first from Propellerheads!
On Her Majesty's Secret Service real
This is on her majesty's secret service? This is a compilation of John Barry by the sounds of from it at first, Russia with love then onto the classic song to go skiing to
+GranTruismo4head I believe you are thinking of the Moviola II compilation album John Barry did in 1995. This is the orchestral music used in David Arnold's collab with the Propellerheads. It's heard within their version but overlaid with electronics, drum and bass.
+comandercool22 aha
I only heard what sounded like From Russia With Love at the beginning before the actual song we expect to hear comes in
It starts out with the intro from From Russia With Love, goes into OHMSS theme, then onto "Capsule in Space" from You Only Live Twice, them back to OHMSS. Pretty creative and I love this arrangement!
Wow this is amazin....something very uplifting about those chord progressions and the crisp brass doing all sorts
Fúcking epic.
the david arnold project james bond was a present to birthday. i loved it because of its yesterday and future evolution
Not bad. Plods along. At least it has _that_ melody. But it's like mud.
Too slow for starters. Not a wrinkle on Barry. I don't care if he
trained with him.
I think this music was for the intermission break. Or should I say it a copy of the intermission break music, I just look up who composer this music and he the same age as I am.
Why compare. Enjoy both versions
4:46 ... enough said
This is the "orchapella" version of the late Jon Barry's On Her Majesty's Secret Service theme covered by film composer David Arnold and British big beat band Propellerheads. While the original electronically infused version can be found on Arnold's album Shaken and Stirred: The David Arnold James Bond Project and the Propellerheads album Decksandrumsandrockandroll, this particular version can only be found on the CD maxi-single of On Her Majesty's Secret Service.
SO VERY RARE ITS BEEN DOWNLOADED FROM THIS UPLOAD ALONE ONTO COUNTLESS DEVICES OVER 4 YEARS
Great find and posting - thank you. Love this score.
