Re: X Factor Background Music??

Does anybody know what the music was in the background on Saturday 17th October just before Stacey performed?

Cheryl,Dannii and Stacey are all talking about the song and the what ifs.

It sounds like it could be from a movie.It reminds me of the music towards the climax of District 9 but i am more or less sure it's not that.

Things like this bug me until i find out.

I am still trying to locate a song i heard on the radio back in 2005.

God help me!

Edit: Listening to it again,i think it may be from District 9.Will try and get hold of the soundtrack to check.

Re: X Factor Background Music??

I recognised one piece of music from a movie in last night's episode. It was Jack's theme from the Pirates of the Caribbean series. Maybe that's what you heard?

Re: X Factor Background Music??

Does anyone know the song that plays in the background while Miss Frank is talking about their childhood? At first I thought it was Emotions by Destiny's Child, but it's not it!

Listen to YouTube - [HQ] The X Factor UK - Live Show 2 - Episode 13 Part 4 ( 10 / 17 / 2009 ) // Episode 13
The song plays between 1:03 - 1:28

Re: X Factor Background Music??

I dont suppose anyone might know the name of the string music behind Joe McElderry this evening? It was quite a dramatic piece. At first I thought it might have been from 28 days / 28 weeks later...but am not sure it is now.

It was during his little spiel before he sings his song. I know I've heard it somewhere before but cant put my finger on it.

At the moment, I cant get a YouTube clip of it, but hopefully someone might know.

Thanks.

I've been onto the Craig Armstrong media player and there are two tracks from the Hulk soundtrack on there, but neither is the track.

There was a dance track as the background music on the Xtra Factor Show from Saturday
which I like and I wanna know the name of the song and who produced it
(btw, it wasn't the first time I heard it on this show)!

It actually begins from 1:30 but please check the notable part from
2:05 min -2:18 min if you're not sure...
YouTube - The Xtra Factor Live Shows 2009 E25 P3

Thanks in advance!

This piece of music from Saturdays xfactor (5/12/09) is from Edward Scissorhands. At the end of the movie when he cuts up the ice making snow. Hope this helps :-)
