Mirror Mirror: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack is the score album to Relativity Media's 2012 film of the same name with 15 score pieces composed by Alan Menken. The soundtrack includes two versions of the song "I Believe In Love", performed by Lily Collins.
Background
I Believe In Love
The song "I Believe In Love" was originally written in 1970 by Nina Hart, a singer-song writer and stage and TV actress (then working at New York City music-publishing company, Golden Bough Productions). The song was one of several written by Hart for director Miloš Forman to consider for his film Taking Off. She performed the song in Forman's film, playing a character at an audition; Hart's recording was a hit in Italy and was later covered by Iranian singer Googoosh. Tarsem Singh—who was unaware that it had previously been used in a film—chose the song for the Bollywood-style musical finale of Mirror Mirror because his daughter had enjoyed the song when he had played it for her the previous year.[3]
