    When "Romeo + Juliet" came out, my 10yo self said if I get married I'll be walking down the aisle to this song. 22 years later I'm getting to make it happen! 💜

      I’m also walking down the aisle to this - did you hire a live quartet? And what did you walk back down the aisle to after the ceremony?

      I am literally doing the same thing with my future husband!! We hired a quartet too!

      I'm also choosing this song to walk down the aisle too! Can I ask you all, did you play this song for when your bridesmaids walk out, or it only begins when you personally walk out?

    My favorite song. I walked down the aisle to this beautiful version.

      We're you able to do it without sobbing? I plan on walking down the isle to this in October. I can't make it through the first 10 seconds without tearing up.

    I love the many variations of this song that are now available. The first time that I heard the very first chords of this song was in the film adaptation of Romeo and Juliet. I’ll never forget that moment. It’s rare for me to be taken so quickly by a song, but this is one of them. So beautiful yet also reflecting feelings of sadness and longing. A song for life.

    I have had this on repeat for the past 2 days. The progression of the score 2.42 onwards always gives me whiplash it's so amazing. This has inspired me to learn the violin so that one day I could perform this piece. I know that when I do , the strings playing behind the main violin section will give me chills as every single note from all the scores blend into one harmony

    Amazing - an instrument like this can really delve into your soul and pull it out, tie it into knots and then return it along with the urge to make your eyes well up with tears - bravo to the performance, because it isn't just the instrument is it! it's the musicians, well done.

  • @ZeeZee22

    Ahhhh, Every time I hear this version of the song it brings a tear to my eye, so so enchanting. Soon I hope to walk down the aisle to this version and then our first dance will be to the Beyonce version called Kissing You/Still In Love

    Why do the musicians have Bach sheet music on their music stands while playing this? I know this piece is from the movie, "Romeo and Juliet," but is this an adaptation from one of Bach's pieces?

    • @jamescaseydiamond
      @jamescaseydiamond 4 роки тому +2

      Perhaps they were performing Bach before this and had the music for Kissing You inside the Bach music book, or maybe whoever dressed the set/chose the props felt that it sounded like a Bach piece. It's a modern piece written by Des'ree and Timothy Atack, and arranged by Craig Armstrong who's composed/arranged a lot of movie music over the tears - but to my ears at least sounds 'classical', so perhaps the idea was to draw a comparison between the modern piece and one of the old masters.
      I wonder as well whether the intention was to give the appearance of a quartet performing in Bach's time - that is, that the music sounds as though it could have been composed at that time, in that atmosphere and environment?
      Good eyes, anyway!

    • @jerikogenie
      @jerikogenie 2 роки тому

      @@jamescaseydiamond I was wondering the exact same thing 🤔! Very odd to deliberately choose to use Bach sheet music for cover rather than just plain black if they wanted to hide the original. Thanks for your hypotheses - you sort of made it make sense 👍😁
