  I played this to my newborn son to he could sleep. When I checked on him in the morning he was standing in the crib and told me "Father, the sleeper has awakened."

  “I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.” <br>― Frank Herbert, Dune

  Say what you want about David Lynch&apos;s Dune, he (along with the composer of this music) was able to achieve an epic, mystical, prophetic, and ethereal flavor in the film that fit the book well. I think that is because he focused on the religious messianic themes in the book, even though he departed drastically from the story. More modern versions just turn Dune into a dry story of political rivalry and war, not much different from other sci-fi films. His version had an undeniable feeling of mystical destiny throughout that was enthralling.

  David Lynch is far too hard on himself about Dune. &nbsp;I think it is excellent. &nbsp;What a monumental task to adapt such a novel. &nbsp;Overall it is an incredible film.

  Now in my 40s I have wondered and marvelled at many a sci-fi/fantasy film from the 1980s. Yet somehow Dune got past me and I only watched the film in its entirety a few weeks ago. I can see why at the time it was a commercial disaster but I was absolutely enthralled from start to finish and the whole soundtrack is stunning. Watching this film is an experience and, to my knowledge, there has never been anything made like it before or since. The end credits are a work of art in themselves...

  I appreciate the fact that this is longer than the movie itself.

  Every time I hear this track I get this deep, soul rending, almost violent longing and nostalgia for my 80s childhood, to the point it&apos;s physically painful. Vangelis&apos; &quot;Blade Runner&quot; OST also evokes the same sensation.

  Never watched this movie, but can&apos;t believe this is an almost 40 year old song. Then again it is Brian Eno. The guy&apos;s music sounded like it was 30 years ahead of its time.

  The fact we never got a directors cut of Dune will forever be a crime.<br>Lynch wanted to make it an epic over 3 hours, but the producers and money men cut it down.<br>Rest easy, Mr Lynch. Thank you for all the art you gifted us.
