Your Song - Moulin Rouge! (2001 film) - MP3 instrumental karaoke

Moulin Rouge!’s soundtrack, released on May 8, 2001 by Interscope, features a standout rendition of Elton John’s classic “Your Song”, performed on-screen by Ewan McGregor as Christian and Alessandro Safina, with a reprise by Nicole Kidman as Satine. Written by Elton John and Bernie Taupin in 1970, and originally produced by Gus Dudgeon, this adaptation was recorded during soundtrack sessions in late 2000 to early 2001, overseen by producer Baz Luhrmann and orchestrator Craig Armstrong. In the film, “Your Song” anchors the emotional core as Christian serenades Satine, its heartfelt lyrics and gentle piano melody reimagined with layered strings and romantic crescendos. Although not released as a chart single, the soundtrack debuted at number 5 on the Billboard 200 and went on to reach Number 1 on the Top Soundtracks chart, eventually earning double platinum status. “Your Song” underscores the movie’s blend of theatrical romance and jukebox musical energy, reaffirming the song’s timeless appeal and boosting McGregor’s credibility in musical cinema.
