Music of My Life Project: Year Four

This is the first year in which I have some memory. At least direct memory of the music in question for the timeframe in question. The song in this particular question is the famous John Williams score for the movie Star Wars. Star Wars, both the movies and the spin-off merchandising were a big part of my young life. I still remember that, when I was in fourth grade, my parents took me out of school early so that I could see a matinee on the day that Return of the Jedi opened.

John Williams theme is incredible, throughout all the Star Wars movies. I particularly enjoyed the way he tied/transitioned the theme from the third prequel into the empire's theme from the first movie. The tone of that theme conveyed as much of the storyline as any actor's expression or inflection.
