All rights of the Original "Tears in the Rain" go to Hans Zimmer and Wallfisch (for the 2049 track, the original Blade Runner Tears in the Rain goes to Vangelis).
Enjoy! :)

When i was younger, my dad and I went to blockbuster and rented the original blade runner. He had watched it numerous times when he was younger, and he told me how good of a movie it was. Being only like 7 or so at the time, I didn’t think to much of it. But when we got home, and put it in the disc player, I was instantly infatuated with the deep storyline and rich music of the film. I like to think that this movie really shaped my childhood, and I couldn’t think of a better candidate for that title. Now that 2049 has come out, my dad can’t get enough of it. I remember how giddy he was to see it in theatres, so eager to relive that beautiful experience that the first movie delivered. He watches it time and time again, and it makes me so happy to see him this way. In conclusion, blade runner changed my life, it shaped me into what I am today. Thanks for your time lol.

Rest in peace, Vangelis. Thank you for giving us this masterpiece.

its astounding that no film maker in all these years has even come close to the quality of this movie in the sci fi genre....

Vangelis music was like listening to what stars would sound. We Greeks are proud of people like him. He made us proud and eternal grateful for his talent.

Rest in peace mr Hauer. Thanks for everything.

I swear Bladerunner was honestly the most realistic of the sci-fi movies in how the world could be like during a space age. The parts I liked the most were probably the music, which in itself told much of the story and the mood of the characters and this piece was by far the best. Still puts me into tears every time I watch that scene at the end, and hearing that speech while the rain fell. Definitely still one of the better movies out there if only for the feels alone.

Tears in rain. It brings a tear every time I watch that scene. In my humble opinion, one of the very best scenes in motion picture history.

May you rest in peace, Rutger Oelsen Hauer.

Rutger Hauer passed away in the same year as Roy Batty did in Blade Runner - 2019. RIP..

I'm a DJ, and that's relevant for later. When I was growing up, I didn't realize the impact the original movie had on so many people, like my father and millions of others. When I got older, however, and started really getting into film and audio, I started watching it with my father and realizing how important this movie truly was. When he passed in 2011, Blade runner was the first movie I watched after his death and Roy's death scene shook me to the core for reasons I don't truly know if I'll ever get over. Fast forward to a couple weeks ago and I am doing a themed set for a Cyberpunk night. Of course, I had to play almost everything from the original Blade Runner OST. There is no Cyberpunk without BR. For the final song, I chose the original Tears in Rain, complete with Roy's speech. When it started to play, I could feel all the emotion coming back after years of my father being dead. I held my composure as best I could until the set finally ended on that song, and then excused myself and cried in the back, hard. I didn't know it at the time, but the night I was DJing and played that song and cried, was the night of the same day Rutger Hauer had passed. That hit me hard. I don't know if there will ever be a time when i don't hear this song from now on and not tear up. I never once, in my life, thought a piece of music with a few lines of monologue would ever bring me to tears, but Vangelis, Rutger Hauer and my father all showed me it's not only possible, but also that it will hit hard. I thank the 3 of them for the wonderful gift they have given me, and this song is truly one I will always cherish.

I can't listen to any of the versions of tears in rain music without crying, no matter what movie or speed it's on. Fucking incredible. This isn't music, it's an emotion.

Vangelis' music was so iconic in the first movie that it became a character in itself, it's so integrated a part of the movie that even Hans Zimmer wouldn't dare letting his own "boombastic" parts overshadow anything, he kept that stuff for the action and love scenes. It's perfect in the original and perfect in 2049. The amount of respect people have had for this piece of art, both graphically and sonically, is just insane - it's an enormous undertaking :D I hope we get a third film sooner than later.

When I as younger, I watched a movie called "Blade Runner" with my brother and father. I don't recall much of my reaction to the film, other than laughing at a replicant death scene and my brother doing the same. Over time, the film slipped from my memory until my roommate John asked if I had ever seen it. I said no, and to be honest I didn't realize it was that film until I was at the scene of the replicants death that I had laughed at as a child. But I didn't laugh this time. I watched in silence, and continued the movie to completion, absorbing every scene I could looking for a deeper meaning that I knew was right in front of me. Beyond the greater meaning, beyond who was human and machine, beyond the subtle nuances of the great film, i think the greatest thing about this film is overlooked because many don't realize it when they see it. The thing the film cherishes so much, life, is the very thing that makes the film better. I feel that the more I live, the more I grow and learn, the more I realize how insignificant and small we are, and how terribly close to death we all are- the better the film becomes. Because after all, all these moments will be lost in time. Like tears. In the rain.

It's great to read all these comments while enjoying the music...

2019, the year Blade Runner movie
Was set in. Its been 37 years since
The original movie came out. I still think its one of the best movies in or out of the SF field.

So beautiful. This movie changed my life and it became a part of me when my life was in danger in 1996. And i came back.
It always makes me cry.

... attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched C-beams glitter in the dark near the Tennhäuser Gate. All this moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain... Time to die.

It's too bad she won't live. But then again, who does?
