Agreed but the remaster is on Apple Music. :) I don't see a cent for it but it's nice that it is there.

SO TRUE you feel the songs and understand them better; like "Love's Not For Me" for example. Holy crap. That song leaves you hallow and heartbroken with its truth. As a kid I just thought the music was fun to bop to, you listen to the lyrics and appreciate the variety of genres more now.

I can't believe this movie and soundtrack were made over four decades ago... I'm from Germany, was born in 95 and remember my Grandpa's wife from America visited us and gifted me a VHS tape of this movie. I watched it probably about a hundred times and every time I did, felt like I was escaping the real world for just a while and go to a different place, a magical place. With incredible music, animation and storytelling. I like to think this movie sparked my love for good music and films and it still holds a special place in my heart. A true masterpiece of animation with the perfect soundtrack! Thank you Graham Gouldmann and Steven Lisberger, who also created my favorite science-fiction world with TRON!

I'm a 95 kid from Switzerland and one day in the early 2000s my parents caught this movie on TV and recorded it for me. Remembering this film and the music feels like remembering a magical time when I stepped into a magical place, a long, long time ago. I just bought the German DVD version and I'm so happy such a thing even exists. Can't wait to watch it with my friends and hide my face because I will be crying.

@RF23232 2 года назад

@tablaturebutler2823 8 лет назад

Animalympics is the creation of Steven Lisberger, who wondered what it would be like if the animals got together to compete against one another. He even has a voice cameo as Dean Wilson, the body-surfing otter. Lisberger is better known as the writer and director of the original TRON for Disney, which was originally conceived as another "what-if" idea - what if a guy fell into cyberspace and had to fight his way out? The man's a genius...

@Swampert384 8 лет назад

I did not know Dean was voiced by Linsberger. That's pretty interesting. For suure.

I first saw Animalympics around 1983 or 1984 when I was around 8 or 9. Such a wonderful cartoon that has stayed with me for life. I'm now in my 40s and I just watched it on dvd today on this hot sunny bank holiday in London. My favourite songs are, We've Made It to the Top, Away From It All, Rene's Song and With You I Can Run Forever. I also love the African sound of Kit Mambo's song. I wouldn't trade the era I grew up in for all the money in the world.

@Kage342 9 лет назад

They should actually play the music from this movie at the next Olympic games. 'Go For It' and 'Z.O.O.' should be played at opening ceremony because well, it is a great build up and the actual title is appropriate. The final song at the closing ceremony should be 'We've Made it to the Top' with pictures and highlights of various athletes who have won the gold medal and such. It would be a nice memorial to all the fun they had and it would make everybody sad that it is all over and make everyone want the next one to come swiftly. Who is with me on this idea?

This was truly an inspirational movie for anyone needing something to bring them up from their lowest. This movie taught me to never give up nor allow anyone or anything to get between me and my goals. Combine that with beautiful inspirational music from 10cc; and you have something that could lift you up and make you hungry for victory and success!

@RF23232 2 года назад

Unbelievable how Lisberger managed to create a story influencing so many on such a deep level.

@RF23232 7 лет назад

This movie influenced my childhood so much. Yes, it's an animated film but especially the soundtrack combined with the scenes make the movie worth to watch. Especially the lyrics of "Born to lose" and "Love's not for me" tell us much about life and choices. If you didn't see the movie so far, don't miss it!

Blame Universal Music for it. They bought out BOTH A&M and Mercury Records and unless Graham Gouldman retained the master tapes, those tapes were likely a victim of the 2008 Universal vault fire. I am going to try and contact Graham Gouldman to see if a reissue would be possible.

Side by side through every nation We ride the world just like a roller coaster As we take each road and we take each turn you bowl me over ‘Cause you gotta be my inspiration Together we can run forever Through all the seasons we’ll keep goin’ on Through the wind and rain and the morning dew It doesn’t matter baby where we are With you i can run forever With you i can run forever We see the bright lights of the city The colours change they re-arrange themselves In different patterns But it’s too crowded in the city And so we leave it all behind Go on to other places With you i can run forever With you i can run forever There’s nothing we can’t win together With you i can run forever With you i can run forever With you i can run forever

Such an underrated movie granted the movie itself is animals doing the olympics so I guess you could say it’s nothing special but the songs more than make up for it The songs in this movie gives me the sense of motivation and moving on The songs are great. They make the movie

I became a 10cc fan as a boy in 1975. When the Amimalympics Soundtrack was released the record was fairly common (white cover US pressing) but the movie was unavailable for viewing. I first saw it on The Disney Channel as a young man. I loved it..34 years later I still love the movie and soundtrack.

+Jerry Mariano It was held back from release in 1980 until 1984 due to the U.S not participating in the Moscow Olympics :-)

+Jerry Mariano Glad you like the album, I loved remastering it. :) I actually saw the movie on a local TV channel in Ohio in the late 80s. My grandmother recorded it and I wore out the tape. UAV had copies and I took one of those. Later I acquired a few copies of the German DVD release. I still hope for a proper Blu-Ray in the US.

+ChrisKewl there is a group in California right now trying to create a full remasted copy of the original film with pieces of the film from different copies that already exist. I get to see some of the progress at a special showing they did at a furry conversation in California. one of they guys that helped with the original film was even there to do a interview and Q&A.

+Lotus .Wolf I'd be willing to give my remastered music over to them if that helps.

@lillylee122619 8 лет назад

+ChrisKewl I have not talked to them in a bit, but if I can get in touch with them, I'm sure that would appreciate it. The remastering is part of a project to preserve works that make their mark on the furry community as a whole. they have one of the largest arcive collection of furry art work, litterateur and films. the remasting of Animalympics would be a huge accomplishment in my opinion, especially since it's being done by a private collection group.

Thank you so much for this! I have been searching for Animalympics for many years. When I was young I had the Lp but lost it. Cheers

Oh my, how I love the music and the film! watched it again and again and again as a kid. nice and fun movie with a brilliant collection of different music genres and styles. It was a perfect symbiosis of animated movie + fitting soundtrack. It also introduced me to "psychedelics", the movie itself was huge tribute to psychedelic experiences, like the otter jumping from the kickboard into a psycho swim in the ocean, the skiing boar transforming into a machine or the goat hallucinating all the shits in the marathon. Definitely one of my absolute favourites of my childhood. Now that I speak of and remember the movie: everything's so good, I'll go watch Animalympics right now haha cu

@neiltritschler608 4 года назад

I remember the film very well indeed. I was eight years old when it was released here in the UK in 1981 and loved every minute of it! 😉

@LewisDavies2007 4 года назад

Sweet! I also remember watching it on the VHS with Hanna Barbera's Charlotte's Web. For years, I've been looking forward until in March 2013, I finally found the film that I been looking for. It's so great to see this hidden gem again.
