For me, Danny Elfman is a person who can bring out feelings in anyperson.

If you are looking a movie, and a music in the background make u cry, or feel exciting, or whatever feeling, you ever think that the composer of that movie theme is Danny Elfman.

Very nice, thanks for sharing those Skorp , good music!
