Last updated 6th Nov 2019
Fans of George Michael will be absolutely over the moon to hear that a previously unheard song is now being released. The new song, called 'This Is How (We Want You To Get High)', is going to be on the soundtrack of upcoming film Last Christmas, starring Game of Thrones' Emilia Clarke and Dame Emma Thompson.
Having also co-written the script, Emma revealed that she was inspired to make the film following a meeting with George in 2013, who gave his blessing for the film to be made.
She said, "The wisdom and emotional scope of George’s lyrics have always amazed me. So many feel like they were written for the movie. After I met George and experienced his compassion and understanding up close, I realised that in fact the movie was written for those lyrics."
The film's soundtrack is as follows:
- 'Last Christmas'
- 'Too Funky'
- 'Fantasy'
- 'Praying For Time'
- 'Faith'
- 'Waiting For That Day'
- 'Heal The Pain'
- 'One More Try'
- 'Fastlove Part 1'
- 'Everything She Wants'
- 'Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go'
- 'Move On'
- 'Freedom! ‘90'
- 'Praying For Time' (MTV Unplugged version)
- 'This Is How (We Want You To Get High)'
The synopsis for the film reads as follows, 'Kate (Emilia Clarke) harumphs around London, a bundle of bad decisions accompanied by the jangle of bells on her shoes, another irritating consequence from her job as an elf in a year-round Christmas shop.
'Tom (Henry Golding) seems too good to be true when he walks into her life and starts to see through so many of Kate’s barriers. As London transforms into the most wonderful time of the year, nothing should work for these two. But sometimes, you gotta let the snow fall where it may, you gotta listen to your heart … and you gotta have faith.'
Last Christmas will be released in UK cinemas on Friday 15th November 2019.
