Hey Guys hows it goin?

Last night, I was on my PC,happy as anything, talkin over the net to my friends. When... I suddenly had the urge to download something from 'Limewire' (legal downloading program) ...Any way, I must have sat there for five - ten minutes, and then I finally thought of something to download... The tomb raider one theme tune.
It was taking ages to download, slowlybut surely that little bar started to get longer... untill, my patience payed off, the tomb raider theme was complete, and I double clicked on it

.
When that flute-like instrument began playing, I felt un-beleivably sad.
From about the age of five (im 14 now) my grandfather and I would always play the tomb raider games. 1, 3, last revelation, chronicles, it was our tradition, and what we had come to love.

But he was diagnosed with chest cancer; and passed away in 2002, he never got the chance to play angel of darkness... so I played it in memory of him... good memories.

Oh im sorry for your loss, I cry too, ive been playing it since i was 6 (14 on Tues) and i cry each time i hear the peaceful music, i also cry on the TR2 Song (Mixed of a guitar and tr1 tune)
Its so sad! my Great Grandaddy Died of Prostate Cancer in 2002 too.

Hi LaraLuva
im sorry too, the music really stirs me up, im actually listening to it now! The tomb raider 2 music is as close to me as the first because it was my father and myselfwho played that one. But yeah the tomb raider anthems just prove that tomb raider's gonna go on and on.

No, not sad. But i always find the TR1 music very very touching.

adventuregirl · 21-05-05, 19:53

Me too!^^ Love it. I actually think it´s the best. So peaceful and beautiful..

Sorry for your loss._. I lost my 2´nd grandfather too last year. We weren´t that close though..

Awww it makes me sad too. I always say to my sister when I hear it "This music brings sadness to my heart!" The eerie music in the tomb makes me feel touched as well.

Yeah That song brings back memories when my cousin use to play the game and the whole family was watch....the T-Rex *happy tear* lol

I've always loved the TR theme. It's simply brilliant.

aerozone · 26-05-05, 08:01

i hope we get a good old tomb raider theme for the new game, u know a quality tune like in tr's 1 to 3 and last revelation a great theme too.

Mary CF · 26-05-05, 08:16

Yes, it makes me sad too. It's such a beautiful tune and I had never heard anything like it before.

Sorry to hear about your loss, [EDIT: I meant to say Cubiculum Neohili].

listening to the TR1 theme brings back memories of my childhood. I'm 18 now. Sometimes I miss being 9 years old so much (that's about when I first started playing TR)... life was so nice and carefree then, and I was always smiling.

Tombraider always was and always will be very close to my heart.
