电影里的音乐
「音乐无所不在，你只要仔细聆听就会发现了。」- 奥格斯罗许
在《把爱找回来》中，音乐扮演着举足轻重的角色。因此在制作开始之前两年，就开始洽谈音乐制作人，最后请来葛莱美奖得主马克曼辛纳，与三位音乐总监：杰夫波拉克、茱莉亚密邱斯和安娜丝塔夏布朗，谱出了一连串所谓的「奥格斯狂想曲」，串连起整个故事，结合了古典、摇滚和福音音乐。
波拉克说：「《把爱找回来》的音乐，在故事的陈述中扮演着串场的角色，所以理查才找来这么多人合作，我们要确定各方面都连接得当。」在整个过程中，几位音乐总监都要彼此密切合作，还要跟柯克丝汀莎莉丹和理查路易斯讨论各方面的事宜。
强纳森莱斯迈尔在片中演唱了三首歌曲，反映出他当下的不同心境，而且在片中都是他的角色路易所创作的，所以一定要是原创歌曲才行。迈尔说：「『Break』这首歌是在路易认识莱拉之前写的，充满自信和冲动，年仅十九岁的年轻人，在爱尔兰乐团的伴奏之下，想要闯荡美国乐坛。『This Time』是在两人分开之后才写的，有种萦绕不去的含蓄特质。最后一首歌曲是『Something Inside』，透露出路易在成年以后，几经妥协而蜕变的成熟个性，他发觉自己否定命运很久，终于有勇气继续向前迈进。」
这三首歌都是由迈尔亲自演唱的，但是录音室里有请专业的乐师，配乐来衬托他的歌声，电影画面上则是安排了演员和其他的乐手来演奏。同样地，在路易和奥格斯不知道彼此的身分
，却在公园里上演吉他二重奏的那场戏，配乐也是由专业乐师来操刀的。
奥格斯是个生涩的新手，都是凭本能在演奏，他的音乐自然要非比寻常才行。知名的摇滚乐手大卫克洛斯比，在这张原声带中献唱，路易斯说：「他无与伦比的洞察力，从头到尾都对音乐的可信度有极大的贡献。」他弹奏乐器的方式，和知名吉他手麦可海吉斯的风格很像。
莎莉丹形容海吉斯的创作风格：「比传统的演奏更有节奏感，很像是奥格斯第一次拿起吉他的时候会用的方式。」海默在学习吉他的过程中，就是拿已故的海吉斯生前的录音带来揣摩的。海默和迈尔在公园里弹奏的曲子，是巴西籍的吉他手海特培瑞拉所谱写的，曲名是「Dueling Guitars」，由培瑞拉和道格史密斯合奏，制作人是马克曼辛纳。
路易斯说：「这是父子之间的对话，只是没有用文字，彷佛鸟儿归巢喂食新生的雏鸟一般，叫了几声，雏鸟再回应，就是这样彼此沟通的。」在另一场戏中，奥格斯来到了哈林区，本能地被唱诗班的歌声吸引进了教堂，尤其是其中一位年轻团员中气十足的独唱。触动他的不只是音乐而已，还有她唱出来的歌词，叙述着将损失化为美丽和歌曲，藉此跳脱内心的寂寞
。 这位作曲家继续说道：「为了串连这三个核心人物，我在片中的好几场戏，都是用三音和弦来呈现主题，分别代表奥格斯、莱拉和路易。涵括这个主题的还有一个更大的主题，在片中反复地出现，代表奥格斯的泛音配乐，因为这几个音是最近似于自然脉动的声音，这部电影是始于泛音，也以泛音来作总结。」
另一首经常出现的旋律，是范摩里森的「Moondance」，第一次出现是在路易和莱拉相遇的时候，第二次是魔术师为奥格斯演奏的时候，第三次是出人意料而奇迹似地转换成古典华尔滋，在纽约的中央公园里，回荡出一首场面盛大的终曲。
The soundtrack to August Rush, a movie about a young boy orphaned by his musically gifted parents, has become a bestseller. Although it helps to have seen (and enjoyed) the movie, in many ways the music on the soundtrack stands on its own. Be sure to check out Jonathan Rhys Meyers "This Time" and John Ondrasiks "King Of The Earth".
"August Rush - Music from the Motion Picture" premieres a range of extraordinary new music including two original songs penned by Five For Fighting's John Ondrasik ("King of the Earth," performed by Ondrasik, and "Break," performed by Jonathan Rhys Meyers with Ondrasik on piano); a brand new cut ("Someday") from R&B pop master John Legend; two transcendent performances from female guitar virtuoso Kaki King ("Bari Improv," "Ritual Dance"); and four revelatory tracks including "Break," "This Time," "Moondance," and "Something Inside" sung by Jonathan Rhys Meyers (the Golden Globe winning actor has sterling musical credentials, having sung his own parts as a David Bowie-inspired glam-rock star in Todd Haynes' "Velvet Goldmine" as well as his current role as a charismatic Irish guitarist and singer in "August Rush").
The album also includes a variety of cover performances including Chris Botti & Paula Cole's interpretation of Billie Holiday's "God Bless The Child," Leon Thomas III's reinvention of the traditional Mexican folk tune "La Bamba" (which became a signature hit for the late Ritchie Valens in 1958), and Rhys Meyers' take on Van Morrison's "Moondance" (also covered by Chris Botti as a bonus track on the album).
Amazon.com Editorial Reviews:
Who knew Jonathan Rhys Meyers had such an aching, lovely croon? In August Rush, he supplies his own vocals in the role of an Irish indie-rock singer, and it's a testament to his skill that he doesn't embarrass himself on Van Morrison's "Moondance." (He's even better on Lucas Reynolds' "Something Inside.") This is fairly representative of this CD's flavor: thoughtful, adult but not bland--typically, you hear a lot of cello throughout.
John Ondrasik, stepping out from his Five for Fighting persona, wrote new material, though the best song, "King of the Earth," is an unreleased one by his main project that boasts superb, elegant production by Bill Bottrell. Intriguingly, guitar virtuoso Kaki King is the hand double for Freddie Highmore, who plays the film's child prodigy. Her two instrumentals, "Bari Improv" and "Ritual Dance," are treats for lovers of inventive acoustic playing, who should also enjoy the self-explanatory "Dueling Guitars." John Legend sounds aching on "Someday," though the cover of "God Bless the Child," by Chris Botti and Paula Cole, feels a little lite. --Elisabeth Vincentelli
