@CraigatCoF Am I crazy or did I hear A Forest being played on a Player Piano during Westworld tonight?— steve clark (@spcdesigns) October 24, 2016
@CraigatCoF There was a great piano version of A Forest in this weeks episode of Westworld.— Ian Halperin (@IanHalpyHalp) October 24, 2016
Watch the scene here (updated to a better version).
Update (Dec. 11th, 2016): Full soundtrack is now available - Amazon / iTunes. Thanks, Josh.
Excellent!!
ReplyDeleteHaha... I was just watching Westworld and started humming along with the song... thinking -- "wtf, I know I know this song from somewhere?!". Soundgarden's Black Hole Sun was played on the player piano on the first episode of Westworld.... now we get to hear The Cure!!
ReplyDeleteThey also played Let Down by Radiohead. It's been fun listening for the various alternative hits being played on the saloon piano.
ReplyDeleteCorrection. It was No Surprises, not Let Down. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.inverse.com/amp/article/21702-hbo-westworld-soundtrack-songs
ReplyDeleteYes... yes you did!
ReplyDeleteIt will be lost on most watching the show but it can be no coincidence that (as I recall) as the music plays the Thandie Newton robot is looking at herself in the mirror, looking at her eyes, questioning her existence as she has troubling memories of the past.
ReplyDeleteAnd lyrics to A Forest include the following lines:
"Come closer and see
See into the trees
Find the girl
If you can
Come closer and see
See into the dark
Just follow your eyes
Just follow your eyes"
Or maybe I'm reading too much into it and the writers just know a good tune when they hear it.... :-/
Some would say there's no such thing coincidence, just chance, etc...
DeleteAnybody have the link of the song played in the show?
