"AURYN gives you great power," he said solemnly, "but you must not make use of it. For the Childlike Empress herself never makes use of her power. AURYN will protect you and guide you, but whatever comes your way you must never interfere, because from this moment on your own opinion ceases to count. For that same reason you must go unarmed. You must let what happens happen. Everything must be equal in your eyes, good and evil, beautiful and ugly, foolish and wise, just as it is in the eyes of the Childlike Empress. You may only search and inquire, never judge. Always remember that, Atreyu!" Sleepy Dragon: Track Two Song: Fantasia/Atreyu's Quest Artist: Giorgio Moroder/Klaus Doldinger Album: The Never Ending Story OST Quote: Cairon/The Never Ending Story

"Rockin' and a-rollin', splishin' and a-splashin', Over the horizon, what can it be? Looks like it's going to be a free country." Sleepy Dragon: Track Three Song: No More Kings Artist: Lynn Ahrens Album: School House Rock! Quote: Lynn Ahrens/No More Kings

"We continued our search for the other members. And it turned into... a Nightmare." Sleepy Dragon: Track Four Song: Guardhouse Artist: Shusaku Uchiyama Album: Resident Evil Remake OST Quote: Chris Redfield/Resident Evil

"She is a Living Presence in their spiritual earthbound Plane. They're attracted to the ONE thing about her that is different from themselves. Her Lifeforce." LATER DAYS: The Jerry Goldsmith Experience: Track Six Scene: Tangina's Monologue (Part 1) Artists: Jerry Goldsmith, Zelda Rubenstein Movie: Poltergeist (1982) Quote: Tangina/Poltergeist Mix: Sleepy Dragon Tangina's monologue from Poltergeist is one of the pivotal moments in the movie, thanks to Zelda Rubenstein's riveting performance paired with Jerry Goldsmith's exceptional score. I broke it into two parts for the Mix SLEEPY DRAGON and have put both parts on the Jerry Goldsmith Experience so that we may get the full effect of their dynamic brilliance.

"How very special are we, for just a moment to be, part of Life's Eternal Rhyme" Sleepy Dragon: Track Six Song: Mother Earth and Father Time Artist: Debbie Reynolds, The Sherman Brothers Album: Charlotte's Web OST Quote: Charlotte (Debbie Reynolds)/Charlotte's Web

"Gonna hold your body close to mine From this day on we're gonna be together Oh I swear this time I'm never gonna let you go" Sleepy Dragon: Track Seven Song: Never Gonna Let You Go Artist: Sergio Mendes Album: Carnaval Quote: Sergio Mendes/Never Gonna Let You Go Lyrics

"So much Rage, so much Betrayal. I've never sensed anything like it." LATER DAYS: The Jerry Goldsmith Experience: Track Eight Scene: Tangina's Monologue (Part 2) Artists: Jerry Goldsmith, Zelda Rubenstein Movie: Poltergeist (1982) Quote: Tangina/Poltergeist Mix: Sleepy Dragon In this, the second part of Tangina's monologue from Poltergeist, both the music and the tone shift into darker and more ominous territory, which in the end is what Poltergeist is all about. The dread this scene inspires is second to none.

"But how can it send us back, child? We are already here... and SO. ARE. YOU." Sleepy Dragon: Track Nine Song: Second Sight Seance Artist: Christopher Young Album: Hellraiser 2: Hellbound OST Quote: Pinhead (Doug Bradley)/Hellraiser 2: Hellbound

“From now on you'll succeed in everything you attempt. Because I'm a Luckdragon. Even when I was caught in the web, I didn't give up hope. And as you see, I was right.” Sleepy Dragon: Track Ten Song: Sleepy Dragon Artist: Giorgio Moroder/Klaus Doldinger Album: The Never Ending Story OST Quote: Falkor/The Never Ending Story

"When it feels like the world is on your shoulders And all of the madness has got you going crazy It's time to get out, step out into the street Where all of the action is right there at your feet" Sleepy Dragon: Track Eleven Song: Rhythm of the Night Artist: Debarge Album: Rhythm of the Night Quote: Debarge/Rhythm of the Night lyrics

"Show no fear For she may fade away In your hand The birth of a New Day" Sleepy Dragon: Track Twelve Song: Never Ending Story Artist: Limahl Album: The Never Ending Story OST Quote: Limahl/The Never Ending Story lyrics

"Though the next few years were rough, General Washington's men proved they were tough, Those hungry, ragged boys would not be beat. One night they crossed the Delaware, Surprised the Hessians in their lair, And at Valley Forge they just bundled up their feet!" Sleepy Dragon: Track Thirteen Song: The Shot Heard 'Round The World Artist: Bob Dorough Album: School House Rock! Quote: Bob Dorough/The Shot Heard 'Round The World lyrics

"Power is fleeting; Love is eternal." Sleepy Dragon: Track Fourteen Song: Main Title/Colwyns Arrival Artist: James Horner Album: Krull OST Quote: Princess Lyssa/Krull

"DON'T LOOK BACK!!!" LATER DAYS: The Jerry Goldsmith Experience: Track Sixteen Song: Escape from Suburbia Artist: Jerry Goldsmith Album: Poltergeist OST Quote: Steven Freeling (Craig T. Nelson)/Poltergeist Mix: Sleepy Dragon In the end it always comes back to Poltergeist for me. I saw this movie when I was seven and it affected me to such a degree that it became my favorite movie of all time. It was also the first time I ever experienced Jerry Goldsmith's music for myself. I used this song as the climax for the Mix Sleepy Dragon, which combines Poltergeist with the Never Ending Story in interesting and unexpected ways. I had originally just put the song up but decided later to go ahead and put the entire ending scene from Poltergeist on the Mix. It is one of the most intense and satisfying endings in movie history and is scored to absolute perfection by Jerry Goldsmith.

Falkor shifted in his deep slumber. Something had changed. The Dream which once had been fragmented reshaped itself, forming one Vision. The Luck Dragon let out a contented rumble and a smile formed on his lips, briefly exposing his pearly white fangs. He relaxed back into the Dream. SLEEPY DRAGON: Track Sixteen Scene: One Grain of Sand (The Theme of Sadness) Artists: Klaus Doldinger,Tami Stronach,Barret Oliver Movie: The Never Ending Story

"Brothers, what we do in Life... echoes in Eternity" Sleepy Dragon: Track Seventeen Song: Elysium Artist: Hans Zimmer Album: Gladiator OST Quote: Maximus/Gladiator

"America was the New World And Europe was the Old. America was the land of Hope, Or so the Legend told." Sleepy Dragon: Track Eighteen Song: The Great American Melting Pot Artist: Lori Lieberman Album: School House Rock! Quote: Lori Lieberman/The Great American Melting Pot lyrics

"Bastian Balthazar Bux," he grumbled. "If I'm not mistaken, you will show many others the way to Fantastica, and they will bring us the Water of Life." Mr. Coreander was not mistaken. But that's another story and shall be told another time. Sleepy Dragon: Track Nineteen Song: Bastian's Happy Flight Artist:Giorgio Moroder/Klaus Doldinger Album: The Never Ending Story OST Quote: Carl Conrad Coreander/The Never Ending Story

"The inside might be as black as the night But at the end of the tunnel there's a LIGHT!" Sleepy Dragon: Track Twenty Song: Light at the End of the Tunnel Artist: Richie Havens, Andrew Lloyd Webber Album: Starlight Express OST Quote: Richie Havens/Light at the End of the Tunnel lyrics

Hey folks! Here's the Fireside for SLEEPY DRAGON. Better late than never! Hopefully this will shed some light on what this rather unusual Mix is supposed to be about. Hope you like it. Never stop Wishing. Peace. -Chris
