Music campaigner, Christopher Barry, has had a huge win with his push to have the Godzilla (1998 remake) music score released globally to film and music fans worldwide.

In March last year Christopher petitioned,
"In the world of film music, so many great and underrated Scores never get a release or are forgotten.

Some music labels try to change that situation and propose rare score releases, but it concerns, in general, classic scores, most of the time and a lot of people continue to wait with frustration for more recent score releases... that’s why we decided... to help the community of film music collectors to obtain more.

This petition was created to obtain more rare film music releases! In 1998, The Promising young composer David Arnold wrote a wonderful score for the Roland Emmerich’s GODZILLA remake.

Since 1998 the community of film music fans wait for a complete release of this score. That’s why we need your support to obtain one day this long awaited music; we have the chance if we submit to film music labels this request! JOIN US!"

On July 10, 2007 Christopher reported good news,

'We Did It! Godzilla (Complete Score) Was JUST Released By La La Land Records, Thanks To ALL Of You, Who Signed!!!!
