27) "The Mid-Morning Recording"   Giorgio Moroder's Metropolis - Original Motion Picture Soundtrack (Vinyl Version)
It's certainly not the best version of the movie, but it was the version that first introduced me to the Fritz Lang classic. In 1984, this version of the film was released to theaters, and it became the first "silent" film I saw in the theater. It was also the first square frame movie I saw as well. I guess the modern soundtrack was a draw for me at the time, but the amazing visuals are what left the impression. This soundtrack certainly has some cheezy moments and it does sound quite dated these days, but I am happy that this version of the movie exists. I'm happy that they've finally released it to DVD this past month, and it's because of this re-released I play the vinyl version of the soundtrack this morning. While it is better to have a complete version of the film that was restored and released in 2010, but it is also quite nice to celebrate this "pop" version of the film. A film that changed my shoe size. The film is pure Lang, the soundtrack is pure Moroder. For one brief moment in film history they were brought together to entertain and influence. "Now here's a riddle and a rhyme. If she's the same, how come she's different now?" - Michael - MFL
