thank you so much

it cant be from the romeo and juliet soundtrack

Answer 1

In Act 1, Romeo and Juliet are young and passionate - Juliet comes across almost childlike. Similarly, many of the other characters, such as Sampson and Gregory come across as foolish and irresponsible, whatever their age may be. A song like "Forever Young" might work for Act 1 for these reasons.

In Act 2, the lovers have met, and their romance builds to a marriage. A really decent love song is what best represents Act 2... pick you favourite love song, and use it here. :)

In Act 3, everything falls apart fromt he very first scene. Mercutio dies, Romeo is exiled, and things look very very bad for Juliet. "Going Under" by Evanescence is suitably dark and expresses a feeling of helpessness about being dragged into something by forces one cannot fight, and Juliet's confusion at learing that her new husband has killed a close member of her own family.

Act 4 is Juliet's ruse. This entire act is about Juliet fooling everyone into thinking she's dead. One of my favourite love songs of all time would fit here: "Even When I'm Sleeping" by Leonardo's Bride: "I love you, even when I'm sleeping / When I close my eyes / You're everywhere".

Act 5 is the tragic death of the lovers. Something completely different here: "Piu Jesu (Requiem)" by Andrew Lloyd Weber, a song he composed for the death of his own father. The title means, literally, "Pity, Jesus".

Answer 2

There's a song called 'The Great Escape' sung by Boys Like Girls, the lyrics fit into the story of Romeo and Juliet and the song itself is pretty good. Another song you can use is 'Hey Juliet' by LMNT.

Answer 3

have u watched the 1963 version of the movie Romeo and Juliet? It has a backing song to it that fits the entire film...i think it's called "A Maiden's Song"...but i'm not quite sure...but i think it's that. To make sure...u could go to ur library and ask for the 1963 version of R & J and find the backing song to it - it's played repeatedly throughout the entire film! Hope this helps...i wish i could do better to help u!! :S
