Thank you Jane - ITMFL is really always beautiful - to watch the trailer too ( but attention: NOT Rod Steward singing - BUT Bryan Ferry !)

Greetings

Is it really Rod Stewart's voice ? I didn't know there was "Scots version trailer".

Anyway, all the scenes of this film are so beautiful.

ITMFL must be the most beautiful film in the history. Very Happy

I think Rod Stewart is singing a song called I'm in the mood for love.
Bryan Ferry's singing in the trailer mentioned in the article , isn't it??

Hi everyone,

Now, I've checked the music.
This song was by Bryan Ferry. Not Rod Stewart.

I've heard Rod's version as well and certainly agree with Helga. Wink
Rod's voice is not as good as Bryan's for this song. WKW's choice was right.

Dear Eri and Yuka !

That´s what I wanted to tell you before - believe an old girl - hahaha!

WKW definitely used Bryan Ferry´s version !
To listen on Soundtrack CD "More In The Mood For Love" or on Bryan Ferry´s own, excellent CD "As Time Goes By" (Track 4)

As far as I know did Rod Steward his version much later -

Dear Helga,

Thanks. At first I listened this with very low volume and although I thought the voice sounds very much like Bryan Ferry's, it said "Tartan video" at the end, so I wondered it might be another version specially for Scotland. Laughing

To be honest with you, Rod's version sounds like a joke and didn't have the mood. Rolling Eyes

I have Roxy Music "Flesh + Blood" and his solo albums. too.
Some of their(his) songs are so moody and sometimes make me drowsy....zzzz
But for this trailer, I think B. Ferry's voice fits well. Wink

Hi All

The “Tartan Video” logo at the end of the trailer is for the DVD company which releases lots of East Asian films in the UK.

It is Bryan Ferry singing the trailer soundtrack. There do seem to be quite a few other errors on this website!

Hi girls,

I have to say that all WKW films have very well chosen soundtracks that add nicely to the emotional grasp.

But what took most of my interst in the film was this idea to have a openhearted, free, totally free ongoing conversation with the object of our love.

What we can't often do but need so badly.

A Big Kiss & Hug to you All

From Italy with Love
