As much as the musical breakdown is interesting, if you look at the behind the scenes interviews with Tim Burton he admits that he had a basic idea of story but no meat. As a result he told Elfman to just start writing music and so the script and story really developed from Elfman. So to me it strays from theory and makes total sense.

Totally off-topic, but just watching clips from this film. The stop-motion is gorgeous. It's not fluid enough to imply any computer enhancement (like later efforts such as _Corpse Bride_ ) and thus your consciousness of how much work and detail went into every frame, puppet, and movement.....is heightened. It is truly art on display. It's a simple story, with a solid colorful cast, amazing score, and fantastic visual effects. Sure, the story isn't extremely complex, but it is clear why this film still endures so strongly in our brains.

A note on the stop motion. My professor at university was one of the original animators on this film. This film was made in the 90s before computer programs (namely dragon frame) were invented and before the digital camera boom. Therefore, this movie was shot on film and they often couldn’t see what they were shooting as they shot it. A lot of math went into every scene as it does in a lot of animation. The only thing that was partly digitized and computer generated was jacks ghost dog. It was one of their first forays into this digital landscape. (Specifically my professor animated the three little kids for the most part).

Also at 6:23 when Sally says "Jack, I know how you feel," the melody of "Sally's Song" is being played in the background which is super cool since she hasn't even sung it yet at this point in the film; its introduction is actually right before "Jack's Lament" when Jack's talking to the band then it shows Sally in the graveyard so it helps introduce her character and then lead into and out of Jack's sort of expositional/introductory song, thus setting them up together from the beginning of the movie.

I was fully expecting a clip of Patrick yelling "yeah e minor yeah!".

But can we get an F for those whose birthdays are really close to Christmas

I don't know why you think that's so out there. Elfman has a history of using modules to express narrative things (i.e. The Simpsons opening theme uses the Lydian scale because the mix between the stability of the tonal major chord and the instability of the raised fourth triton relationship is a perfect musical encapsulation of the Simpsons themselves - a normal American blue collar family in a happy sitcom but with that bit of instability that never quite disappears). It sounds very reasonable to me that he thought about all of that here too. I'll go farther and postulate a different conclusion - Jack was bored with the minor key so he tried going major. However that wasn't what he needed. What he needed is to add some little spark to his mundanity. Instead of going a 180 from minor to major, he learns that what he needs is just a little variation, a minor key with a new element (the lowered 2nd), represented by Sally.

Great addition to the theory

Ha, you silly II'm always wearing an aluminum tinfoil hat It does wonders for my skin tone

Wow, this is an opera. As someone who has studied music theory for years, this still made sense.

"Phrygian stank note" is my new favorite phrase

I'm pretty musically illiterate, but I've always been under the impression that Danny Elfman does put a lot of meaning behind his music. I wouldn't be surprised if he did all this on purpose. Also, Happy Birthday! Halloween is probably the best holiday to have your birthday near, because you'll still get presents for Christmas and you'll get double the sweets!

Shoutout to all the October babies who internalized Halloween so hard it became a personality trait *literally had a TNBC themed wedding*

10:00: "The Holiday Movies That Made Us" documentary on TNBC revealed that Danny Elfman composed the music first before the script was finished, and he literally made Jack Skellington's songs with himself in mind. The screenwriter was his then-girlfriend, Caroline Thompson, who actually brought in Sally Rags into the story as a deuteragonist, and she also put a lot of herself into the character. In a way, the two lovebirds wrote a love story together, whether they were consciously aware of it or not. Their relationship didn't last IRL, but it's an interesting production tidbit that backs up the musical theory.

This was probably the only wholesome conspiracy theory that i've ever heard of.

You've mentionned before how "Making Christmas" uses the melodic contour and rhythmic pattern of the first four notes of the Dies Irea; but have you noticed that the way this motif of four notes is repeated two or four times in a row, many times, evocates a completely different traditional song, the melody of which happens to have the exact same melodic countour as the first four notes of the Dies Irae, but with a different rhythm pattern: the Carol of the Bells (originally a traditional Ukrainian song called "Shchedryk": kzread.info/dash/bejne/gqqbta2nos2cYso.html)? Thus, "Making Christmas" melody is not just referencing death, it's also still referencing christmas - so maybe it's a song about killing christmas, *or*, maybe, it's a song about the denizens of the kingdom of the dead having a christmas celebration?

"Because what Jack really needed was to find someone who understood him for who he is in order for him to actually be happy." 😢yeah that sounds about right

"Making Christmas" is perhaps more closely connected to the Carol of the Bells; sing the carol very slowly as regular eighth notes and you'll find the melody to Elfman's song (Hark, how the bells/Sweet silver bells = Making Christmas/Making Christmas).

I really like this conspiracy

As a professional musician who majored in theory, I have to say this holds up. Superb analysis!! And you're right, even if Elfman may not have done this *consciously*, it's in there, and it validates his great instincts as a dramatic composer.

Just found this. Ready to put on my tin foil hat and add to this. So I think you are right but I'll take it a step further. Jack is only able to sing in major in Christmastown and when he tries to explain this to the town that Phyrgian Stank is the best way he can try and get the members of Halloweentown to understand the concept of Christmas as best as he can. We see Sally and Jack singing in Phyrgian Scales because they have the ability to think outside of their own experiences. Jack wants something more, Sally is an empath and psychic. Everyone else in the town is content with staying with the status quo. When it starts to snow in Halloween town, the people of Halloweentown finally experience a world outside of what they know which allows them the ability to sing in a major scale/feel something different.

I do know a bit about music theory, and I love your analysis! I am a vocal instructor and a pianist, and one of the things that I teach my students is the need to find performance clues in the score. These are exactly the kinds of things I look for. I don't think it actually matters if these were intended by the composer. What matters is that they can help with character development and interpretation. Thank you for such a well-thought out theory. I will be using this when I next have students working on some of the music! Oh, and happy belated birthday!

"Phrygian" is also the same as major "Ionian", and minor "aeolian " these are the harmonized modes of a Major Scale. It;s the third of the scale. Super clever composition with out having to do the impossible.

I see Nightmare Before Christmas in the thumbnail *instantly clicks and likes* Nightmare was my love for the first six years of my life. I haven’t changed ;A; Love the video by the way!!

Even if Elfman wrote the notes that way because it sounded good, I think there is still an argument to that unconscious narrative that drives all artists to compose, write, or paint in a way we can all recognize as circular and complete. (Your videos get my brain buzzing, thank you so much for them.

I actually used to be a music composition major and even though that is no longer my academic passion it's still a very dear personal hobby that I practice very frequently. As part of a film score in class I took we were actually taught how to incorporate musical themes to help emphasize plot elements, character emotion, relationships, tension, basically to just reinforce everything that's on the screen whether it's visible or not. So you're actually not making a stretch of it at all. And Major (heh.) kudos to you for picking up on it from that one phrygian recurrence. If you're interested in that kind of musical technique, look in to the OST of Undertale. It's done plentifully and masterfully there.

I really loved this trip down the rabbit hole. The Nightmare before Christmas is one of my favourite movies too, so I really enjoyed the ride!

Not a conspiracy theory at all, just incredible scoring

When you start digging deeper into the music theory of Sally’s Song, it only gets even cooler. The “stank note” you are referring to is actually a full modulation in the orchestra to the major key up one half step. The following melodic line she sings has major tonality going up, but in the decent, Elfman adds accidentals leading to a modulation back to the original minor key. These overlapping major and minor scales create the Phrygian sound that you hear, which holds the tension between the two keys. But immediately after the resolution back down, the melody jumps up to the relative major key and the orchestra eventually follows. The song continues in the major key long enough to release the tension, but after a few descending lines, it stumbles back down to the minor key with just 4 descending notes and gets enforced by the repetitive final line (except for the very end with the Picardy third). So basically, the entire struggle shown throughout the movie between Halloween and Christmas, Minor and Major, and what happens when you combine the two worlds, is all displayed in just one verse of Sally’s Song. And it all ends with character development you can hear. Danny Elfman is an absolute genius.

Well. "Death of the author". No matter what Danny Elfman intended, it's there, and it's awesome.

*YEAH, E MINOR!*

Nobody: Sideways: D I E S I R A E

My school's choir we had to sing dies irae it was pretty lit

Sweet video. But why not just ask Mr. Elfman himself? Also happy b-day!

It sounds like Elfman intended all of this, he is an incredible composer and it strikes me as less of a theory and more of a subliminal fact the music reflects on the characters emotional state

I love how you geek out to this movie and its music, I'm glad to know I'm not alone ahaha. I've always been fascinated by how the music in this film sounded, "Jack's Lament", especially the part where he's coming down from the hill, always gave me the chills. Love the fact that "Making Christmas" melody is in fact a Dies Irae, I'm committed to this music theory rant - says a music student who failed terribly at composition xD

This is why I love Elfman's work, and your work of analyzing music as well :')

my goodness this is a well out together video. You apply some of the things you pick up from music in the actual video. Like how in your video about superhero music you mentioned that certain themes only have an impact because they are continuously played with certain moments which integrates the tune into a certain thing, and here you ingrained that this special "stank note" is like the spongebob clip of him with his stanky breath. So then you display the clip when a character sings the note. It makes that association. This is awesome.

Great find! You identified the spiritual-emotional motivation in the music. I think it wouldn't be laughable to professional analysts at all! 1 This is not a conspiracy theory. It has nothing to do with 2 or more people making an agreement or being in agreement in secret or immorally. 2 This is an excellent analysis. It's perfectly logical but not a criminal conspiracy.

Jack is fascinated by and obsessed with Christmas throughout the film, but if you look specifically at the things he loves about Christmas Town, it's that the citizens all get along, children are safely protected by their parents, there are couples kissing, etc: all of these forms of affection and love surround him there, but you can't see any of that in Halloween Town. If the story has subplots, the only two would be Sally's plot (i.e. having been made as a servant/implied wife to a man, not having choices or love) and "Oogie's boys" (i.e. Locke, Shock, & Barrel choosing to help Jack, but ultimately defecting back to Oogie out of fear - really listen to how much they emphasize how scary Oogie is). Both subplots deal with loveless perversions of different types of relationships Jack craves: romantic and parental/familial. In the original poem, Jack goes on to have a few skeleton kids, which always struck me as hugely irrelevant until I noticed this theming. All along, what Jack really craves is love, understanding, and a deep interpersonal connection with someone.

My birthday is October 28th. Needless to say, Halloween and all of its trappings mean quite a lot to me.
