- Space Battleship Yamato BGM Collection Part 1
Strange as it sounds, it was the recorded quality of the original BGM (Back Ground Music)
that had kept it from being released until over six years after the TV series debuted.
Back in 1974, recording sessions were not budgeted for stereo since no Japanese TV set
could hear it that way. To Miyagawa's credit, he skillfully worked around this to
write simple melodies that could break through such technical limitations. In short,
he made sure that his tunes would still sound good on a miniature TV speaker.
The music made such a powerful impression on viewers that the memory of it could get them
through the eternal 7-day gap between episodes. Naturally, they wanted to hear it in pure
form and didn't mind saying so to those at Columbia who would listen. In the wake of Be Forever's
tremendous success, Columbia finally relented.
BGM Collection Part 1 clearly said "MONO" on its cover, but this deterred no one. In no time at all,
the floodgates had been opened on another form of music merchandising, and BGM albums rolled out from
practically every series, new and old.
Miyagawa's liner notes from BGM Part 1:
Even though the Yamato story is set in outer space, it's basically a human drama. When making space music
one usually uses a synthesizer, but for this anime we used a live orchestra to bring out the full aspect
of Earth's humanity. For later works, we consistently stayed with the grandeur of the orchestral sound.
We added a certain uniqueness to differentiate each new production, like a pipe organ, or a different style
melody for a particular alien race. But for me, the first Yamato will always be the foundation on which we
built the rest of the series, and I will always hold the fondest memories for it.
Once she sailed to save her nation
She failed then
Now she sails to save her world
She cannot fail now
Be forever, Yamato! 😭🤜✊
Yamato save us all for the future of humanity (if this happened I would be dead but I would wish it good luck from heaven).
I like the unintentional message in how the Yamato failed when she was used to protect and evil power but when humanity is on her shoulders she win. Those who fight for the right to live for man always win
@@snortskysnorts254she was close to 300 years old actually
What a legendary theme !! The moment this theme first plays in the first episode when they discover the fallen 200 year old Yamato !! What nostalgia !! Brings tears to my eyes !!

This is one of the best soundtracks ever created hands down
I have the Star Blazers soundtrack on cd and it included this music. Every time I hear it, I stood up and give a right hand salute to the Yamato.
Years later and it still brings a tear to my eye.
Still loving this music in 2024!
Classic
One word: EPIC...
yep
BEATIFUL, GREATLY BEAUTIFUL!!! THANK YOU!!!
Once sailed the Seas of an Empire.
Battled in a dangerous Suicidal Mission.
Failed then.
254 years later...
A fossil of an old treasure from a second great war..
Returns as Space-Traveling Battleship.
Makes a powerful quest to a faraway planet..
Returns back home to restore a planet of blue and green.
Recommissioned to fight a Comet Empire..
One World, it Kamikazed, another World, it survived as a battered vessel..
Returns to another planet for a New Voyage..
Fights an Empire of a Dark Nebula..
Does it's best to stop the Sun from a Nuclear Fusion..
Fights another Empire of the Denguil..
Sacrifices itself against a Floating Continent..
Failed in Vein..
17 years later..
The Vessel reemerges from a Continent of Ice..
Fights to protect a flock of Emigration Vessels..
Fights to Protect the Universe from a Great Federation..
Strives to stop a Black Hole..
Uses its last breath of Power.. a Transitional Device..
Burned to a Crisp..
Survives as a hero...
Be Forever, Yamato....
Seeing this moment on screen, knowing all the epic battles and moments to come for this proud ship and her crew, the sacrifices, the losses, the victories, and what venture and wild star will yet endure, but have no knowledge of yet, is such a profound moment. Beautiful music for this moment.
IMMORTALE!!

soundtracks fantastic
Wonderful!
Take a listen on 0.75 speed, you won’t regret it
Listen on 1.25 speed and it becomes a parade march.
This way sounds the closest to 2199's rendition of it
Это прекрасно
