Shrek - Fairytale (extended version)

[benh05]

Why wasn't this in the musical version? i0i

[pepiludak1]

I sad 5 sekundi iz ove pesme je toliko bitno? Vi ljudi niste normalni!

[Millanche88]

Prst gore za sve koji su dosli ovde da uporede Zeljkovu pesmu sa ovom. :)

[TheCharmed524]

@Millanche88 Ista je :)

[zokinho91]

ZELJKO JOKSIMOVIC ME JE DOVEO ! :D

[jokaiika]

@zokinho91 Jbt, pa muzika gotovo ista. :/

[ech064]

Now used on the Dreamworks Animation logo

[TheSonicblur]

can't stop singing Hallelujah

[SimonNICE100]

Shrek is such a good movie, and the music is fantastic

[bookwormalways14]

The beginning reminds me of Finding Nemo. x)

[sexipants]

why does the 'fairytale' track that you can download from the soundtrack cut off before it's finished?? Why isn't it as long as this one?? And how did you put it back together again?!

[Tracassin465]

It's more better that the intro of the movie!!

[Izybellaz]

@Tracassin465 "More better" Wonderful english you've got there, mate.

[gordonl]

A complete and totally shamefull rip off (of Lloyd Weberian nature) of NOCTURN by SECRET GARDEN - Search for this to hear a much better version of this tune...

[WOLF25275]

@gordonl There's so many melodies in so many songs, isn't it inevitable that every song will have another that sounds similar? Even if it is a rip off of Nocturne, Williams has only succeeded in introducing the music to another generation. Face it, a 6 year old isn't going to listen to Secret Garden.

[DragonofShu]

Well not neccesarilly, I was into New age music sicne Iwas very very young.

[WOLF25275]

@DragonofShu I wasn't.

[DragonofShu]

Maybe, I am jsut saying nothing's absolute.

[crasshelmet]

@WOLF25275 idiot sheep who help to limit individual creativity by siding with huge corporations who turn everything into a Hallmark cards. I am sick and saddened for this world.

[jaguar4u2012]

@gordonl

Same style, completely Difrent Music!

So stop trolling!

This music is Beautiful!

[TheAdrianrystad]

@gordonl This is so much better :D Nocturne is boring!!!! But I respect your opinion. :)

[DragonofShu]

I knew it rmeminded me something.

[MISSTER543210]

@gordonl Yes, it is possible, they do sound very similar. However, I prefer the Shrek Fairytale version. It sounds more polished, if a little too short. Never comfortable with Nocturne, always seemed there was something(s) missing. The melody just doesn't flow right, ever so slightly erratic, annoying. Bit too repetitve, which can make it dull. Shrek ver is epic, orchestral, inspirational, and dynamic, but too damn short.

Another Great Song is CiderHouse Rules (Main Titles) - Rachel Portman

[crasshelmet]

@gordonl 100% in agreement. And those who disagree have been brainwashed by the hollywood machine; steal it, and it's yours. Gee, I wonder why the world is so screwed today

[killingbotl4d2]

Wait. Im kind of confused. So does Halo own this song or Disney (Shrek)?

[WOLF25275]

@killingbotl4d2 neither. dreamworks do, technically.

[crasshelmet]

@WOLF25275 I am sure you know. seeing as you work for them! Do you sometimes lay awake at night and think: Is my soul worth the fucking money?"

[WOLF25275]

@crasshelmet What are you talking about?

[Dylantog]

@killingbotl4d2 Wow, fail, Shrek is from Dreamworks not Disney

[kidssj789]

@killingbotl4d2 Microsoft and Bungie own the "Ghosts and Glass" interpretation (composed by Martin O'Donnell and Micheal Salvatori), while Dreamworks owns the "Fairytale" interpretation. Does that clear that up?

[the0happy0girl]

that song makes me sad... but I love it!

[weaselfoo1]

music choice can make or break a series and this is a wonderful example of that

[lugiaspit]

I love this song. Fairytales are the incarnate of our most innocent imaginations when we are young. Sadly, once we grow older, we are subject to the real pains of life, and this imagination isnt as big of a part of our lives as it used to be. But it will always be nice to be lost in the Utopia that is in fairytales.

[zhOlabelu]

PORRRRRRRR FIIIIIIIIIIN LO ENCONTREEEEE!!



[TheAGKMisadventures]

I dropped a tear. What nostalgy !

[TheXeeman]

@TheAGKMisadventures omg same, I'm trying hard not to cry....I miss my childhood :(

[QbecBt]

I love so much. >w<

[ellsroxanne]

OMG <3

[TooWorldsCollide]

Magical.

[kehlek175]

Doesn't this sound like Ghosts and Glass from Halo?

[WOLF25275]

@kehlek175 actually, youre absolutely right. i'm shocked. be interseting to know who copied who.

[GX2000GX]

@WOLF25275 Halo came last, they copied.

[psymaster1234]

@WOLF25275 I'm sure Halo Reach copied/ or was at least influenced. This came out in 2001? Reach came out recently.

[ricardoperezhoyos]

@WOLF25275 everyone copys everyone

[pianoorganman]

@WOLF25275 it may be legal because the melodys never really touches this one but it does sound like with chord bases

I'd like to know who wrote it first though

[rockkong1]

@WOLF25275 Halo maybe copied Shrek because I think Shrek came out before Halo

[colorfulpride91]

@WOLF25275 they copied actually from Secret Garden. the original song is called "nocturne".

[spellcast300]

@WOLF25275 Neither. They both copied from Nocturne by Secret Garden.

[benh05]

Why was there no arrangement of this in Shrek: The Musical. It's too beautiful to discard!

[wittyworldlee]

gives me chills everytime. i would walk down the aisle to this at my wedding instead of Canon in D or something

[EMMANUELYAGAMI123456]

hermosa melodiaa... :,)

[mrtobi7]

D...D....D... DOWNLOAD LINK!!!!!!!!

[Nightstar1231]

This score and the How to Train Your Dragon score. Best music ever.

[ncisevanescencefan]

This reminds me of the theme from Harry Potter... :)

[fra2603]

beautiful music

[WinxSimsFan]

the music is real magic

[Lipglosshoneybun]

I'd really like the mp3 to this so I can put it on an eternal loop.

[TheMonfantastic]

I bet flowers grow faster to this song !

[Kinuoxx]

It sorta sounds like that song "It is you that I have loved all along" (I don't know the real name) :o

Love it tohugh x3

[luyahh]

@Kinuoxx lol, that song is in shrek soundtrack too, hahahah and that song is inspired by the movie hahah you're funny

[LittleMrsLunatic]

wonderful -thats all i can say.... =)

[MrVitaliy1998]

shrek,

one of the best movies ever

and the music is real magic

[YasminFlower88]

Beautifull song of a fantastic movie!

[SHACE08]

Poor Bird



[123ilovevampires]

My little brother used to be obsessed with this movie! After watching it a bunch of times it's easy to understand why. Great story. Great score.

[123gimmevids]

Bravo, great upload. Doesn't cut out halfway through, and it has parts I've not heard during the movie. One thing about the Shrek movies that bugs me is that they've got such fantastic music, but they're always in such a rush to hold kids' interest that they jump too fast. Well guess what - Shrek isn't for kids. How in the heck would you see anything about, say, Shrek 2 unless you've been married and had to deal with the "family" crap afterward?

/Sorry, complaints out.

[WOLF25275]

@123gimmevids that's the curse of these animated films: they have to appeal to the widest audience possible, including children. and children don't appreciate subtle things, such as the score.

[Mycrosss]

@WOLF25275 Not all kids are the same,i appreciate this a lot...

[MultiWillPill]

@123gimmevids -Shrek isn´t for kids.

Lol I misunderstood there. Like if Shrek were a horror movie or something. XD

[monsterhighfright]

@123gimmevids its more like shrek the third with the family crap

[johan861]

Is this song only in the first film?

[WOLF25275]

@johan861 no this has been featured in every film except 'shrek the halls', although it was changed slightly each time. i think theres been about 9 or 10 versions throughout the quadrilogy!

[paulman34340]

@WOLF25275 heck it's now dreamworks theme whenever you see their intro in movies after shrek

[DiabolicHeart]

Gregson Williams is amazing

[tvsrn44]

This music makes me fall in looooooooooooooooooove..

[Rasbutin7000]

This music makes shrek a lot more than a great movie.

[WOLF25275]

@Rasbutin7000 amen to that.

[Isarru69069]

@WOLF25275 I am going to miss Shrek now no more fairytale :( Nearly a year!

[fredrickausterlitz]

@Rasbutin7000

I agree. An absolutely wonderful piece of music. So moving.

[grimTales1]

@fredrickausterlitz I agree totally - beautiful piece of music :)

[MultiWillPill]

@Rasbutin7000 It´s also a fairytail and a cult classic. :)

[QTnuro11]

-pees-

[grimTales1]

I agree with the uploader BTW, this is one of the finest tracks ever done for a CG film score.

[WOLF25275]

check out my extended extended version ;) that should answer your question

[Skydance1110]

Isn't this the melody from Dana Glover's It Is You (I Have Loved)? xD

[grimTales1]

@Skydance1110 Yes, it is! :D

[L4D2acidiccharger]

This reminds me of 'The Shire' - from the lord of the rings soundtrack. so peaceful. I gave it a thumbs up :)

[klieu11]

brought tears to my eyes

:')

so beautiful...

[larnie4768]

i have fell in love with this magical film

[Caladolen]

This is very similar to Nocturne by Secret Garden

[grimTales1]

@Caladolen I was just thinking the same thing - they do sound alike don't they, with similar notes and melody. Fairytale is such a good track, haunting.

[SuperAsafa]

the greatest animation movie ever!!!

[WOLF25275]

@SuperAsafa totally.

[00hammad]

@SuperAsafa of course after Toy story the first and the only animated movie

[levi785]

Sounds very similar to the 'Silk Road' theme by Kitaro

[bundeligafan]

no need to mail him for the MP3 version

just download this vid and convert it to MP3

[WOLF25275]

@bundeligafan i wouldnt recommend downloading it - ive done that with other videos and the quality is crap

[bundeligafan]

@WOLF25275

well that's because you don't know how to do it in the right way, go to Keepvid, download the one with best quality, and i'm sure when you created this video you mixed the same MP3 file with some pics using Movie Maker or other software!. it's easy..no need to mail anybody..

[WOLF25275]

@bundeligafan i'm not saying people have to mail me for it - i've had requests for edited versions and songs that havn't been uploaded. just trying to help here

[RedDragonKenichi]

Thanks, I was just looking for this. Brilliant music.

[puisihatiku]

very beautiful... thanks! :)

[PrincessMe1993]

thankyouuu for posting this :)
