Midnight In Paris sound track now on iTunes !!

At last! the sound track we’ve all been waiting for for so long is finally out on iTunes.
All the great music from the film is there including the three Cole Porter tunes that Conal recorded, “You’ve got that thing”, “You do something to me” and “Let’s do it”.

A word of warning: If you listen to the free preview of “Let’s do it” on iTunes you’ll notice that the music is not what you’re expecting. That’s because when Conal recorded the song he including the little known verse at the beginning. The verse was then cut for the movie but has been left in for the sound track album. So, fear not, this IS the version from the film, just with a little extra.

Also included is the “Barcarolle” by Offenbach which Conal recorded together with the great violin duo of Yrving and Lisa Yeras, arranged by our very own Eddy Davis.

Enjoy!
