Remember Me

Category: , By Crazy Sam
Performed by Josh Groban with Tanja Tzarovska
Written by Cynthia Weil
Album: Troy Soundtrack
Music on Reprise Records

Gabriel Yared spent many months composing the score for Wolfgang Petersen's epic adventure "Troy". Yared himself felt that this perhaps was his best score ever. Petersen and the producers loved it. "Great work, Yared," they said. "We love it, man." And they did. Until some guy at a test screening said "uh, hey, I think the music sounds a little too old fashioned." So they tossed the score out the window, hiring James Horner to write a two hour long replacement score in just thirteen days. Horner quickly assembled his performers, also hiring the Bulgarian Women's Choir and Yared's lead vocalist Tanja Tzarovska, with the addition of Josh Groban for the end credits song, Remember Me. Composed and recorded in just thirteen days it was an incredible undertaking, but one that provided the film with enough of the feeling of locale and style to feel right in the film.

Remember, I will still be here
As long as you hold me, in your memory

Remember, when your dreams have ended
Time can be transcended
Just remember me

I am the one star that keeps burning, so brightly,
It is the last light, to fade into the rising sun

I'm with you
Whenever you tell, my story
For I am all I've done

Remember, I will still be here
As long as you hold me, in your memory
Remember me

I am the one voice in the cold wind, that whispers
And if you listen, you'll hear me call across the sky

As long as I still can reach out, and touch you
Then I will never die

Remember, I'll never leave you
If you will only
Remember me

Remember me...

Remember, I will still be here
As long as you hold me
In your memory

Remember, when your dreams have ended
Time can be transcended
I live forever
Remember me

Remember me
Remember... me...
