Roger Mainwood, film director, interviewed for The Telegraph, October 15, 2016įrom the liner notes of the soundtrack album: It is an incredibly moving and fitting ending to our film and we were very honoured to have both Paul and Carl on board. The song was recorded with Paul performing the lyrics and many of the instrument and string arrangements were conducted by Carl Davis and performed by the Chamber of Orchestra of London. Roger Mainwood, film director, interviewed for The Telegraph, October 15, 2016Ĭomposer and conductor Carl Davis, who worked with Paul McCartney on his 1991 Liverpool Oratorio, provided an original score for the film, and also contributed to “ In The Blink of An Eye“. This eventually became In the Blink of An Eye which we have used in the film. We met up and he produced a CD which included a track called Mum and Dad theme.
It obviously worked and we were thrilled when Paul said he was interested. So I asked Raymond if he might write a letter to Paul to see if he was interested in composing a track for Ethel and Ernest, which he did on Fungus the Bogeyman headed paper! I knew that Paul McCartney was a big animation fan and I knew that Raymond Briggs’s book Fungus the Bogeyman had influenced Paul’s 1980s track Bogey Music. Paul McCartney’s song plays over the end credits of the film. The film is based on the 1998 graphic memoir of the same name written by Raymond Briggs, and follows Briggs’ parents, Ethel and Ernest, through their period of marriage from the 1920s to their deaths in the 1970s.
“ In The Blink of An Eye” is a song written by Paul McCartney and featured on the soundtrack of the animated film “ Ethel & Ernest“, released in 2016.
