Power to Believe (Instrumental) (Unreleased) 

"I haven't been home in years""I haven't been home in years""I haven't been home in years" RIP John Candy...

"Well Marie, once again my dear, you where as right as rain. I am, without a doubt, the biggest pain in the butt that ever came down the pike. I meet someone whose company I really enjoy, and what do I do? I go overboard. I smother the poor soul. I cause him more trouble than he has a right to. God, I got a big mouth. When am I ever gonna wake up? I wish you were here with me right now. But... I guess that's not gonna happen. Not now, anyway."

John Candy is the only celebrity death I actually cried over...it felt like a beloved family member passed. It still does. God, I miss him.

My favourite film of all time; love John Hughes and John Candy, love this music, love the sentiment and moral messages of this film. Beneath what many see as a standard 80s comedy, there was an undercurrent of deep truths about humanity and our natures; through social comparison it highlights how many of us take our luck for granted and only see the bad parts of our journey and lives, when really we need to give thanks and gratitude. It also teaches us how when we are travelling, and strangers seem so distant, how if we just got to know people there are so many friends out there to find. Also, how nobody is perfect; Del Griffith with all of his flaws and bad habits appears a nuisance, but when you get to know him, is a kind and gentle soul in a rough brutal world. He's lost everything, he has no home, hes a widower to his beloved, he has confidence and self esteem issues, but he doesn't take his misfortunes out on others, like so many in his position may. He is benevolent in nature and sticks by his morals and values, and there is a very strong unbreakable character beneath his humble persona, that has been through so much and is still smiling. In the car alone, when it's snowing, he questions his self-worth which is tragic and upsetting, as it shows that even though he's strong, there is vulnerability in us all, but he doesn't let bad times break his positive spirit and cheer; hes almost like the spirit of thanksgiving, Buddha or Christmas embodied. It's a bit like John Coffey or Jesus; like the guiding spirit of virtue is embodied in an unlikely hero. Upon first viewing, Neil Page appears the 'normal' one as his cynicism is relatable to us but really he is the Grinch, and though he has everything you could wish for; beautiful wife and kids, lovely mansion and high-flying job - he is often grumpy, miserable, negative and selfish. He is slightly nihilistic and misanthropic and avoids people if possible. He looks over all the great stuff he has and only sees upward social comparisons; this highlights the workaholic, wall street type psychology of the 80s and many of us working people in the west. I find it humbling and beautiful how Neil with all of his success and money learns invaluable lessons from a homeless man; on the surface Del Griffith is an imbecilic comedy character to many viewers but deep down he is so wise. He is almost 'sent down' to help Neil, and I feel the soothing female vocals in this song 'Del's theme', create the imagery of a guiding spirit for Neil and their journey together that teaches him to appreciate what he has; thanksgiving - the undercurrent of the movie. Thank you John Hughes for your moral lessons to us all and to John Candy for your lovable self. RIP John Hughes and John Candy.

You want to hurt me? Go right ahead if it makes you feel any better. I'm an easy target. Yeah, you're right. I talk to much. I also listen to much. I could be a coldhearted cynic like you. But i dont like to hurt people's feelings. Well, you think what you want about me. I'm not changin. I like... I like me. My wife like me. My customers like me. 'Cause i'm the real article. What you see is what you get.

RIP John Candy. RIP John Hughes. Wonderful film.

I’m alone in life, but this movie helps me find beauty in life and in myself. That like John Candy’s character I’m not a failure.

the last movie i ever got to watch with my father on thanksgiving night,he never made it to christmas.when i listen to this i picture in my mind us watching this 3 weeks before he passed away from a 5 yr cancer battle.great memories

“The flame that burns twiice as bright burns half as long.”

Man, this music really makes me cry with tears. The 80s synth (Yamaha and Korg) really had so much soul and emotions to the sounds. Very melancholic. Amazing piece after all these years.

That scene when Martin's sitting on the train, contemplating.... I remember how many years I spent trying to find this incredibly nostalgic beat, and finally now I have it, thank you :D And to John Candy - you were one of the most underappreciated actors of American cinema, your classic movies are forever ingrained in my brain and one day my kids will watch your work.

we will never forget your smile John Candy

This is the Best movie ever

Every time I see John I break down crying. He was my childhood. He taught me to laugh and not hold back. John had something no other actor had, a heart of pure gold.

I was born 1987... and when I hear this music it wraps around my heart and it tells my soul: "It's gonna be alright... everything is gonna be alright in the end."

1:49 "I've been spending to much time away from home. I haven't been home in Years, haven't been home in Years, haven't been home in Years..." (Echoing out)

My favourite movie around thanksgiving!!

This scene always brings me tears.

classic movie with classic music

Just finished watching this movie again, a thanksgiving eve tradition. Such a beautiful piece of music! Gives you goosebumps!

The 80s The Golden era one of the best movies ever. todays movies don't even come close. John Hughes best director ever!!! Life is short death is certain Jesus is the Cure. John 3:16

"I haven't been home in years... I haven't been home in years... I haven't been home in years...." Haunting. And Neal knows deep down he has to know the truth. He cares enough for Del to want to know the truth.

"You're not saint. You got a free cab. You got a free room. And someone who will listen to your boring stories! I mean, didn't you even notice on the plane when you started talking, eventually, I started reading _THE VOMIT BAG?_ Didn't that give you some sort of clue like, "Hey, maybe this guy's not enjoying it?" You know, everything is not an anecdote! You have to discriminate! You choose things that are funny, or mildly amusing, or interesting. You're a miracle! Your stories have _NONE OF THAT!_ They're not even amusing _ACCIDENTALLY!_ "Honey, I'd like you to meet Del Griffith! He's got some amusing anecdotes for you! Oh, and here's a gun so you can blow your brains out! You'll thank me for it!" I mean, I can tolerate any insurance seminar. For days, I could sit there and listen to them go on and on with a big smile on my face. They'd say "How can you stand it?!" And I'd say "Cause I've been with Del Griffith. I can take anything." And you know what they'd say? They'd say "I know what you mean, the "shower curtain ring guy"! WHOA!" It's like going on a date with a Chatty Cathy doll. I expect you to have a little string on your chest, you know where they pull out and have to snap back. Except I wouldn't pull it out and snap it back, _YOU WOULD! AGH! AGH! AGH! AGH!_ And by the way, you know when you're telling these little stories? Here's a good idea: _HAVE A POINT!_ It makes it so much more interesting for the listener!" "...You wanna hurt me? Go right ahead, if it makes you feel any better. I'm an easy target. Yeah, you're right. I talk too much. I also listen too much. I can be a cold-hearted cynic like you, but I don't like to hurt people's feelings. Well, you think what you want about me, I'm not changing. I like... I like me. My wife likes me. My customers like me. Cause I'm the real article. What you see is what you get."

Why does this instantly make me cry 😢 god we miss you John.

Wonderful Song!!! 💞 I love this song and this film!!! 💖

My dad's funeral is today. Playing this while getting ready and practicing my eulogy.

Del Griffith was so pure. Also, John Hughes loved using the dream academy's instrumental background music in his films. A great director.

I prefer this instrumental version. It doesn't need lyrics. God! I love this movie!!

God bless anyone who thinks their loved ones are gone forever. They are not. They will always be with you and you will see them again. Even to the non believers I wish you peace and love

love this film. Im 35 and remember times being so genuine back then

Awesome nostalgia...John candy is a true legend and a very underrated actor...Martin was very good as well. The music takes me back to the good times in American culture.

John Candy, God bless you. I wish I lived in your time.

Obsessed with this

Most underrated movie of all time ... Funny , sad , uplifting and heartfelt all in the same movie .. John Candy will be forever sorely missed !

My favorite road trip comedy, John Candy at his very best, he was such a national treasure to cinema, I am still saddened by his sudden passing in '94, even though I was only 1 yr old at the time. But just seeing him in this film always brings me to tears.

My go to cry song. So powerful...

Damn this song has that "going away" feeling.

May god have mercy of the soul of John Candy The greatest

The day after this was uploaded my Da showed me this movie and we watch it every Christmas Eve ,even if it's a Thanksgiving we don't have that here so Christmas works. Although I could watch this any day.

I haven't been home years

RIP John C. RIP John H.

the 80's were the best. I vaguely remember them with being born in 84 but from what I remeber it was awesome.

John Hughes' most moving film, and I've seen The Breakfast Club 6,000 times.

gives me the feels and the chills

I love sensual 80's music...

This song belongs in a museum!

The most beautiful instrumental song ever. Hands down

Thanks for posting truly one of the best john Hughes film ever thank you Mr candy for pulling my heart strings RIP..

John Candy is a legand. Planes, Trains, and automobiles is classic along with Uncle Buck.

I can't believe the exists. I own this movie and love this movie forever.

Simply amazing. Thank you for this. This really gets inside you. Makes you dig deep, think about so much.

This movie was and still is one of the greatest movies ever. The music was and is still great. RIP John Candy and RIP John Hughes. So many movies that are out there, but I think they do not hold a candle to the older movies before them. The same is said with the actors. Many great actors have retired and many are now gone. There is no replacing such actors. The new actors that I have seen do not hold a candle and seem to be lacking a lot on screen. RIP and live long to the actors I grew up with and to those I did not not.

Cannot believe this doesn’t have more views and likes. Has some of the best comments ever

My mother died November 2nd this year from Ovarian cancer. It was such a horrific last month and she suffered a lot. When she passed away it was bitter sweet cause now she is not in pain and in heaven with her mom, dad, and brother. I miss you mom so much and love you, this song always makes me cry when i hear it. It brings back you back and all the memories. Im crying now. Love you mom.

..happy thanksgiving 2018

John Hughes didn't have a huge filmography but what he lacked in quantity he made up for in quality. Classic movies like Breakfast Club, Sixteen Candles, and PTA. He struck the perfect tone with PTA great casting with Steve and John. It's one of those rare movies that can bring both the laughs and the feels. The scene where Del opens up about his past always gets to me. And right before with Neal, he's on his way home on the tram he's desperate to get home and yet...he still comes back for Del. Great character development from where he was in the beginning.

This was one track that I could never seem to find until now. So many feelings. Thank you uploader for sharing.

Soooooo PERFECT

Thanks sooooo much for posting this, one of my fave films ever, some of the songs are very moving, this one in particular. An all time classic. RIP the big guy John Candy, gone but not forgotten lad! This ones for you kiddo...... i like me my wife likes me :)

when I hear the theme music to clean Trains and Automobiles I think of people I've known in the past. that are gone now or I have moved on from that ranch or Farm and sometimes it hits me that I did all that stuff all those great memories but I'll never do this again I think of Good Times

Beautiful, heartbreaking, nostalgia, timeless

I watched yesterday this film. Some days ago I watched Risky Business, and the scene of the train music reminded me of the Risky business soundtrack. And, is it a coincidence? Both amazing scenes, soundtracks happen at the loop metro in Chicago. Food for thought!

thank you for putting this up :) so damn peaceful!

RU-vid really need to introduce a love button!!!!

thank you for this, just what i needed

MR. CANDY.... A RARE TREAT. :~(

Man! Thank you so much for this - I searched deeper waters of the internet, but now here it is!

Thanks for posting this. I had always loved the music from this scene but didn't realize it was from Dream Academy. I had searched for it but didn't come across it until I was searching for lost music videos of the 80's. The full version of the song was in the list and then I found this instrumental version. The shot of him sitting by himself is the most dynamic part of the scene I think. I think I'm gonna either name my next grandson Owen...:). Thanks again!

I haven't been home in years.

I’m not gonna lie everytime I drive home to my parents house for Thanksgiving I always have this tune jamming in my head while thinking of the ones I love.

Linn drum machine:)

Beautiful song movie and message

Mt favorite OST for one of the best movie of ever.

This instrumental always strips me bare emotionally

R.ip John candy Ure a legend x

This will probably play on my funural in the background. As people walk and speech of how they remeberd the good times. "We will remember him not as a coward. But a fighter".

Melody gives me the chills...amazing song

So sad, bless you JOHN. ................................idelRain PERFECT !

Everytime with the lump in throat, btw who's choppin onions?

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!

The instrumental version is released and available now.

Sending out my Unconditional LOVE to anyone reading this comment. I have no real immediate family, but have a heart FULL of Love; especially to those at their lowest. You can do this, you have the ‘Power to Believe’ in yourself. ❤️❤️❤️

They should of also played this in Uncle Buck where Tia tells Buck "You were right, Everything you said would happen."

thank you so much for the upload, really difficult to find this one.

Hughes & Candy equals movie perfection.

Everytime i hear this..i always think of John Candy..Glad that i grew up watching his movies..a kind heart and soul..Miss him..He always made me laugh..RIP :-(

Going to watch this tonight with one of my dearest friends. Might shed some tears 😭

This music has such a powerful meaning, and it fits well with the scenes.

One of the greatest movies of all time,and the music fit the scene perfectly.

La gracia de Dios nos lleva por caminos que jamás pensamos personas, momentos, lugares, El pastor reune a sus obejas bendito aquel que encuentra un amigo! El que vuelve al camino, salirse del sendero no es malo a veces estar perdido es estar cerca de ser encontrado! Dios vendiga esos amigos que la vida el destino nos trae😇😍

Very fine piece of music. And the movie is awesome, they rarely do those kinds of movies anymore. They were a very 80's/90's thing.

Very beautiful instrumental

My absolute must watch at Thanksgiving through Christmas. I remember this being at my local theater on the reader board.

Love The theme song ❤️

Looking at nostalgic and soothing ghosts that are our past.

One of my all time favorite movies! So sad that John Candy and John Hughes are both gone. They both went way too soon. Rest In Peace

Jeez.. Just listening to this is making me cry... wtf man...?

I love this movie😘😘😘

Two Cold hearted cynics disliked this.

Love this so much. It was finally released on a dream accdemy CD years ago. Has to be on film though for full context
