Topic: Temp tracking for SLEEPY HOLLOW Main Title

Hullo,It's now something like my 10th listen of the INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE score and each time I recognize the same little thing and I thought I'd share it with you:
Do you think it might be possible (oh, just might) that the Main Title sequence for Burton's SLEEPY HOLLOW was temped with the track "Escape to Paris" from INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE?
I'm just throwing this in the air....

Kosh, I put those two tracks on today back to back. They're the same length! They both tend to change mood at more or less the same moments! There is a vague melodic similarity, for a few seconds!But would Tim Burton cut the titles of Sleepy Hollow to Goldenthal's music? Does Tim Burton even USE temp tracks, and if so isn't it usually Elfman stuff?
To answer your question: yes, I suppose it's POSSIBLE! (How annoying was THAT?)

Well, Danielfman is a hack. 90% of his tunes are "inspired" or simply cloned from other people's works.So, what's the big deal on this one?
Sorry.

I just listened to Interview with Vapires Escape to Parise just now and I found only two simularities to Elfman's Sleepy Hollow.The first part appears at 0:55 and then later at 1:36. I admit its almost the same especially at 1:36-1:41 where it actually sounded like Sleepy Hollow for a bit. But I don't think this was a temp track. Not in a Burton/Elfman collaboration, instead I think its more likely to be a mistake. Elfman must have been listening to Goldenthal's Interview with the Vampire, and that little part just stuck with him. And when he wrote the main title for Sleepy Hollow it just came to him, and he thought he just made it up.

I think it's wonderful how everyone pretends to know what they're talking about.

So Tim, you are saying that you know what you are talking about, although you are not sure about what you are talking about.Is that what you are talking about??

The phenomenon Tim describes is actually not unheard of. I once thought I had written a wonderful love theme and got it down on paper feeling very proud of myself. Then a few days later I was listening to JNH's Dinosaur and discovered (to my disappointment) that I had written "Aladaar & Neera."

Does anyone on this board actually know what they are talking about the majority of the time?

You do what? You do know that you don't know what you're talking about? Or you do know that you don't know that you do know that you don't know what you're talking about? Either way, I think you know that you don't know what you do know.
