Sure, some of that music is strange, but it's meant to be open to interpretation. And heck, Explosions in the Sky can get downright very emotional without blabbing a single word.

Anyway, Star Wars theme.

This is a timeless classic. People remember this before we were born and I'm quite sure they'll remember it long after we're gone no matter what kinds of prequels, pre-prequels, sequels and sequels to sequels they come up with. I definitely did NOT appreciate Star Wars enough when I was younger and I really should have.

If I ever have kids, I'm definitely making 'em watch some Star Wars.
Yeah, thankfully that roommate is long gone from my life. Music by its very nature is the essence of emotion. You cannot have music without some form of emotion within in. Whenever I play my instrument, I have to play with emotion to match that of the arrangement. Even the slightest changes to how I play can instantly change the emotion of the song. It's not something to take lightly.

And I wasn't a big Star Wars fan- I'm still not- but I always have loved the music. John Williams is a musical genius. It's hard not to love his music.

I listen to tonnes of instrumental stuff. It's awesome when you need to focus but don't want lyrics in your ears. Although I tend to work well even with words anyway.

For sure. :3 He is! Omg yes, homework music. xD Just make sure you don't accidentally start quoting Star Wars in an essay, haha.
I can't work on anything writing-related with lyrics in the background. I end up writing the lyrics in without thinking. xD

And who said putting Star Wars quotes in would be a bad thing?
