If I give my heart to you
I must be sure
From the very start
That you would love me more than her
So sang the Beatles in this 1964 John Lennon penned song – that song was beautiful.
As sung by Evan Rachel Wood in Julie Taymor’s Across The Universe film from 2007 it is spell-binding.
The electric guitars and drums of the original replaced by a spare string arrangement backing her voice to haunting effect.
But this song transforms even more when you see Evan singing it – transfixing.
Finally for greatest impact of all see and feel it in context in the divine narrative of the film.
