Brad Paisley, Robbie Williams and Brian Bell talk about working on Cars 2
Music and Cars goes hand in hand. And now we're going international with Cars 2. There's all different types of songs. And the score is so cool. It's totally unique.
Cars 2: Hot Tracks Featurette.
Michael Giacchino did the score. He merged this sixties British serve guitar sound with the score. We had a 90-piece orchestra and a really fantastic rhythm section. This is great energy that's created. It elevates the movie in excitement, in emotion, in coolness.
In the film there's a scene in Paris. And we really wanted something that felt like: ah, I love this place, I love this city. The title is: My Heart Goes Vroom. Benabar: It's a very light and fun song. And it's all about love but ala Cars.
This song is Collision of World, co-written with the king of Europe, Robbie Williams. Brad is a very funny guy. Incredibly talented. We're an unlikely team, you know. On the track we interchange lines. It was sort of the yin and yang that worked well. It's a good collision of two world. Brad was so inspired, he wrote a second song. The song, it's called Nobodies Foul. The most heartbreaking scene in the movie is where Mater is realizes he's sort of a laughing stock. And then it sort of comes around that Mater realizes, he is who he is. And that he's effective as himself. That was inspiring to me.
We got Weezer to do a new version of The Cars hit You Might Think. It's gonna play in the scene where Lightning McQueen and Mater go to Japan. When we first found out that we we're gonna do the song for Cars 2, we all got super excited. When I heard it was gonna be The Cars, it's like, yeah, we can do that. That's in our wheelhouse.
There's so many amazing songs in Cars 2. Wait til you hear it. Wait til you see it.
