[Thor Joachim Haga]

Fair enough.

I can definitely see the “go in waves” thing. There was a period Horner was off my top 10, now he’s firmly in 4th place, cemented after his death. Any misgivings I had suddenly gave way to a deep, new love of his emotional immediacy.

By the way, Horner is definitely a case where less is more. A lot of his 90s efforts noodled on for too long, despite his great ability to create long, suite-like tracks. So here’s a case where even the OST is often on the long side.
