U2 – “Your Song Saved My Life”
U2 have released a new track, “Your Song Saved My Life,” which will appear in the closing credits for the animated movie Sing 2. Bono has a role in the film, playing a reclusive rock star/lion called Clay Calloway. Earlier this week, the Irish band joined TikTok to tease the new track.
In a recent interview for Entertainment Weekly, the film’s director Garth Jennings said that getting Bono to sign on wasn’t that hard. After a long conversation about singing and how “some people sing for a living and some people sing to survive,” Bono got right on board for the kids movie. Jennings said he “couldn’t believe [Bono’s] enthusiasm for it,” and went on: “The band recorded this amazing U2 song. It’s just full of so much emotion and heart and literally did exactly what he said in that first phone call. It just says, ‘Okay, here’s how we want your audience to feel as they leave the cinema.'”
Well, “Your Song Saved My Life” is that song. Check it out below.
The soundtrack also features original songs from Sam i featuring Anitta, BIA, and Jarina De Marco (“Suéltate”) and Adam Buxton with Fancy Feelings featuring DSCOSTU (“Tippy Toes”). Plus, there’s a special Sing 2 mix of “Soy Yo” by Bomba Estéro and a cover of “Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)” from Keke Palmer featuring Scarlett Johansson, Taron Egerton, Reese Witherspoon, and Tori Kelly.
