"For better or worse, the Crown has landed on my head"

It starts gently, then builds to an avalanche of emotions. The buildup sounds like a racing heartbeat in a panic attack.Then dies to nothing.

Surprise surprise.. Hans Zimmer made a masterpiece I can't stop listening to.

No one can replace Claire foy and Matt smith for me in this show! 😭😭😭

[TheStoenk]

Wow I never noticed how smoothly these two songs transition into one another. Everyone here compliments Hans Zimmer a lot, but let's not forget Rupert Gregson-Williams' part is pretty beautiful, too

The responsibility of the young Queen Elizabeth inheriting the throne after the death of her beloved father, ruling over a country so fresh off of a war, will never be replaced by any other modern monarch. This song so embodies the strength of Elizabeth as a person and her dignity as a ruler. Her devotion to her country will never be forgotten. She will forever be admired and missed for everything she has stood for.

"... When the death of the King was announced to us yesterday morning, there struck a deep and somber note in our lives, which resounded far and wide, stilled the clatter and traffic of 20th century life, and made countless millions of human beings around the world pause and look around them. The King was greatly loved by all his peoples. The greatest shocks ever felt by this island fell upon us in his reign. Never, in our long history were we exposed to greater perils of invasion and destruction. The late King, who assumed the heavy burden of the Crown when he succeeded his brother, lived through every minute of this struggle with a heart that never quavered and a spirit undaunted. In the end, death came as a friend. And after a happy day of sunshine and sport, and after a goodnight to those who loved him best, he fell asleep, as every man or woman who strives to fear God and nothing else in the world, may hope to do. Now, I must leave the treasures of the past and turn to the future. Famous have been the reigns of our queens. Some of the greatest periods in our history have unfolded under their scepters. Queen Elizabeth II, like her namesake, Queen Elizabeth I, did not pass her childhood in any certain expectation of the Crown. This new Elizabethan age comes at a time when mankind stands uncertainly poised on the edge of catastrophe. I, whose youth was passed in the august, unchallenged and tranquil glories of the Victorian era, may well fill the thrill in invoking once more the prayer and anthem, God Save the Queen..."

That damned Hans.... He's done it again...
I have sacrificed many hours listening to his music & alas... Many more

[maneeshkapoor]

music so royal as it could get. I feel royalty flowing in my veins. The responsibility on her majesty was so enormous, especially when she is beside her dead father. The manner which portrays her charm is inspiring. Meeting her majesty is the first thing on my table.
'The Crown must always win.'

[Filip-bjlm]

Rest in peace. Truly astonishing music, which is suited for her majesty The queen.

If your body is unconciously trembling either having goosebumps, you know the music is divine!

The second once, the Duck Shoot by Rupert Williams is one of the most amazing compositions I have ever heard, the chord progression is just mesmerizing, it takes interesting turns taking you on a powerful journey. 50/10 will keep on repeat for decades.

[frantisekkapoun]

Hearing this song after recent events is unique experience. Im not British but still, I had a lot of respect for her. My condolences to the family and all the wonderfull people of Great Britain. Rest in peace Queen Elizabeth II.

[simonbedden]

Regal yes, but his genius gives us the undercurrent touch of sadness portrayed in the series. Masterful.

[hernobleness]

Honestly Rupert Gregson-Williams should be getting more recognition for this. He did the entire masterpiece of a soundtrack save for the opening theme, and yet Hans Zimmer still gets all the credit...

[miragaming]

You can feel the weight of the crown in the music
