It was Phil Collins' "In the Air Tonight", but there were also portions
of the scene with Tangerine Dream music, if I recall.

John Williams, perhaps the greatest thief in the history of music.  What's
worse, with his highly derivative Star Wars score, he started an horrific
trend towards making ALL adventure movie scores sound like ripoffs of
a combination between Holst's "Mars" and Stravinsky's "Sacre du Printemps".
Rick Wakeman is an amateur next to Williams.  (Didn't Williams also write the
theme music from Lost in Space?).  Goldsmith is not much better.  Where is
Bernard Herrmann when you need him???
