Many consider this soundtrack to be a cheesy disaster. But let me tell you a story... Back then, it was 1991, I had seen Ladyhawke several times since it came out a few years earlier, and I always thought it was one of the most beautiful fantasy love stories ever. Because of that, I liked the music a lot, not least because I also like The Alan Parsons Project enough to find this experimental score cool and refreshing. Now, there was this tabletop roleplaying game group I was about to start, and for some strange reason I can't remember I had decided to use this soundtrack for it. Two of my friends, a couple, had asked if one of their friends could join in, a girl I barely knew, and I had agreed to that. Now, the game began and the music started with that ominous first sounds, and as the first synth tones started, that new girl's head spun around, her eyes met mine, and she said, beaming at me, "Ladyhawke?!" I didn't know many girls who were interested in filmmusic. To have this stranger sitting next to me who knew Ladyhawke, the movie, so well she recognized the music immediately... I couldn't believe it. She smiled so deeply at me, and my hand found hers... This year, we'll be together for 31 years, and in a couple of days, we'll be married for 27 years. It may be a cheesy disaster, and yet it still had enough magic in it to help two strangers recognize each other's souls. Thank you for creating this. I'll consider it an early anniversary gift. ^^

The tale of a hawk, a wolf, and a mouse...

I finally watched this great film. Id seen the trailer since I was a kid. Great actors :))

Damn, when those violins come in is great. 50 year old kid still loving this movie. It was my gateway to fantasy.

Wonderful music from Alan Parsons Projection, and a great movie with Hutger Hauer, Michelle Pfeiffer and Mathew Broderick. Unforgetable. ❤❤❤❤

I'll never understand the people that say that this soundtrack doesn't fit the tone of the film, this theme goes soooo hard when the movie starts

I love listening to your edit of the music. It shows me you've got good ear for music. I love the music for "Ladyhawke" and I listen to it anytime I'm feeling down or fatigued, and it gives me a an emotional lift every time. Thanks for making life better for me and others, with your excellent work! 😀🤗☺️🎶🎵🎹🎻🥁

Awesome. Love this film & music. Thanks❤

Such a beautiful movie and cast and Alan Parsons!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Loved the movie. The music was amazing. I'm going to watch it again.

Again, a wonderful extended Cut and what great music ! Thanks Gilles ! 💖

Still love this movie.

I'm speechless... Masterpiece!

I started listening to this soundtrack because of Ready Player One. This is great.

La película la vi cuando tenía 7 años en canal nacional... me gustaba mucha la melodía. Han pasado 30 años y me sigue gustando. Un grande Andrew powell

Superbe musique et très beau film. Amazing music for a wonderful movie.

J'ai beaucoup aimé ce film, .. et la musique qui va avec. Rutger Hauer joue bien son rôle. Et il avait également joué dans Blade Runner dans le rôle du replicant.

О божаю и фильм и увертюру фильму Романтичный Рутгерт красавец .Смотрела несколько раз Музыка правда сентюковая но выразительная

UN CLASICO DE LA HERMOSA MICHELLE PFEIFFER Y EL VALIENTE RUTGER HAUER

FUCK, LOVE THIS MOVIE.

I like this tune.

好きな作品です。

Ian Bairnson solos at 2:14 and 5:23. You're welcome.

It is so strange that this track doesn't fit the movie but at the same time it does. It's the same relationship as Berserk and 'Tell me why'

Bellissima colonna sonora e bellissimo film, grazie ❤

Been back here several times for this when I hit the gym. That middle part where it amps up at 3:19 is great stepping it up on the treadmill.

MARAVILLA

BRAVO ! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

The Best

I love the movie and the soundtrack! 😂😂😂😂😂

I have always loved the madness of the strings when they come in at 3:20

I remember this movie, i watched at the end of 80s, Rutger Hauer as Ettiene de Navarra, Michelle Pfeiffer as Ladyhawke. good times for best movies. Thanks for post this beautiful theme song.

Great!

Masterpiece.

I love the movie, the music everything! The happiness of being together at the end.

Traumhaft......was war ich verliebt in Michelle Pfeiffer...❤❤

AWESOME.

Somewhere after 3:15 is the earliest version of dubstep I’ve ever heard 🤣

Le film a bien vieilli mais reste dans mes classiques je suis toujours comme une gamine chaque fois que je le revois, et cette B.O est juste épique. La hype est toujours la 🥰

Great movie and sound track.

I love your website and the choice of music 🎉 You've done a job with this. Keep up the good work 😊 👍 🤗 😋

❤👍🏻

レディホーク、大好きな映画です。音楽もお気に入りです😍

sigla magnifica❤

I wish this theme didn’t sound so dated in its instrumentation. I loved the film. Even when it was first released the instrumentation felt too remote from the time period of the story. The rhythms helped the storyline, but I wish for something more timeless.
