In addition, the soundtrack features an original song "The Heart of Every Girl" by Academy Award winner and Golden Globe Award winner Elton John and Bernie Taupin. The album was released on Friday, just three weeks before the film Mona Lisa Smile starring Julia Roberts, Kirsten Dunst, Julia Stiles and Maggie Gyllenhaal. The Epic Records/Sony Music Soundtrax release was produced by Grammy Award winner Trevor Horn. Performing newly recorded versions of classic songs for the Mona Lisa Smile Soundtrack are Celine Dion ("Bewitched"), Macy Gray ("Santa Baby"), Chris Isaak ("Besame Mucho"), Mandy Moore ("Secret Love"), Kelly Rowland ("I'm Beginning To See The Light"), Alison Krauss ("What'll I Do"), and Lisa Stansfield ("I've Got the World on a String"). In addition, Tori Amos, who also has a featured role in the film, has recorded two tracks on the album ("Murder, He Says" and "You Belong To Me"). Academy Award winner and Golden Globe Award winner Elton John has recorded an original song entitled "The Heart of Every Girl," which was co-written with long time collaborator Bernie Taupin. "It is rare for a movie soundtrack to bring together such an incredible group of performers that spans genres and generations and give them the opportunity to record their versions of some of the great songs of popular music," said Lia Vollack, President of Worldwide Music, Sony Pictures Entertainment. "This is one of those special soundtracks that is a musical event in itself." Revolution
Studios' Mona Lisa Smile, which will be released nationwide on December
19 and stars Academy Award winner Julia Roberts, is an uplifting and poignant
drama about one woman's desire to enrich the lives of her students. Mona
Lisa Smile is set in the early 1950's at Wellesley College. The film will
be distributed by Columbia Pictures.
