“FOLLOW ME” – “A Masterpiece Deserving of Attention”…

(Update 11/23/10: I learned after-the-fact that the below 3 videos will not be viewable from iPhone due to YouTube not serving them up to iPhone. However, I was told they ARE viewable from a computer (thanks Posterous Tech!) For iPhone users, the direct youtube links for the 3 music videos have been added to Comment section at bottom of this page. Thank you for visiting.)

Stunning, soul-stirring, heart-wrenching, MAGNIFICENT!  If you love orchestrated movie theme scores, you will love this!

(…)

“The Gospel of John” Original Motion Picture Score, “FOLLOW ME,” composed by Jeff Danna, performed by the London Philharmonia Orchestra.

(…)

“Jeff Danna inserts just enough romanticism without entering the realm of cheesiness or melodrama, creating an atmosphere appropriate for the topic while exercising stylish restraint. For that achievement, his score for The Gospel of John is a masterpiece deserving of attention no matter your opinion of the film’s interpretations or subject matter.”

My two favorite Jesus movies, Gospel of John (2004), & Jesus The Film (Oct. 1979) which again aired last night on TBN.  It, too, has a magnificently haunting music score that lingers with you long after the movie is over, which is what got me started on this hunt.  Sadly, I could not find music clips nor soundtrack CDs for “Jesus The Film.” :(  

And Gospel of John soundtrack CDs were discontinued in 2007!  There are only 4 new ones at Amazon (3rd parties) selling for $80-$100!!!  There are maybe a dozen used CDs for much cheaper.  I heard to check out Amazon’s foreign websites, so we’ll see.  The album/soundtrack IS available as a download at iTunes for $9.99, but I’d rather have a CD.

DVDs of both movies are still available, too.

Just beautiful!  I just don’t have the words…
