On Monday January 8, the Fifty Shades Freed Soundtrack was revealed to the franchise’s eager fans who have been left too parched waiting for news and promo for the final film to commence.
Among the many talented artist who have lent their voices to the soundtrack, Christian Grey himself, Jamie Dornan, will bestow his musical talents upon us with a rendition of Beatles legend Sir Paul McCartney’s ‘Maybe I’m Amazed.’
Jamie is a seasoned vocalist and musician, formerly one half of the band Sons of Jim with fellow mate David Alexander, Jamie is no stranger to the music scene and often had to perform vocal exercises during auditions.
The news comes as a surprise to fans who were hopeful Dornan would sing on the soundtrack. Since Christian Grey is heard among his family members singing in Freed, it was only fitting it be transmitted on screen as well.
Jamie is among some of the worlds greatest and most current performers including Hailee Steinfeld, former 1D member Liam Payne and Rita Ora (who plays Mia Grey) who have collaborated on a duet for the soundtrack, Jessie J, Julia Michaels and Fifty Shades OST alum Sia whom without, the soundtracks would not be complete.
As well as more widely known artists, Fifty Shades is great at incorporating indie/up and coming artists into their soundtracks. Bishop Briggs, who’s rendition of ‘Never Tear Us Apart,’ originally by INXS has been featured on the theatrical and internationals trailers as well as numerous TV Spots.
Danny Elfman, famed scorer, also has some originals on the final soundtrack which no doubt has pleased the fans. Danny’s former scores for Fifty Shades of Grey and Fifty Shades Darker are among some of his most beautiful and talented work.
While many sound clips, teasers, and even Liam and Rita’s full soundtrack song has been released, we’re crazy excited for the OST to drop on February 9. You can pre-order it on iTunes on Friday January 12.
