這套電影的故事平凡,但其精髓是電影中的音樂,以音樂襯托生命。男女主角初次在樂器店合奏合唱"Falling Slowly",一聽這首歌就十分深刻,男女主角的聲線出奇地配合,伴奏的木結他和鋼琴輕輕的襯托二人的聲線,"Falling Slowly" 更獲得奧斯卡最佳原創歌曲獎。,第一句歌詞已吸引著我,I don't know you But I want you……All the more for thatTake this sinking boat and point it home We've still got timeRaise your hopeful voice you have a choiceYou've made it now……Falling slowly, eyes that know me And I can't go back……
而另一幕女主角在黑夜的街頭填寫"If You Want Me"的歌詞,很特別,If you want me satisfy me, if you want me satisfy me……
另一幕,男女主角初次在錄音室錄音,那監製原本只認為他們是一班不知所謂的笨蛋,但聽他們唱了"When Your Minds Made Up" ,就立即改觀,When your mind is made up When your mind is made upThere's no point trying to change it……
還有一幕男主角看著與前女友的片段,作出"Lies"一曲,充滿感情地唱出他的無奈,You're moving too fast for meAnd I can't keep up with you Maybe if you'd slowed down for meI could see you're only tellingLies, lies, liesBreaking us down with yourLies, lies, liesWhen will you learn…….
