The version of Wake Up is a completely new re-work for the film…

Yeah, i doubt it’s a new version. The music supervisor for this trailer just knew what he was doing. Or not… not a huge fan of the splicing job they did.

I’m not terribly excited about the movie, but I’ll go see it. I’m very, very excited about Karen O’s involvement in the score.

Oscar anyone?

Not sure, I realized it was a tad different…

I don’t think the vocals sound different but the instrumentals are definitely a bit toned down, a bit acoustic…maybe it’s a new version for the movie? I hope they wind up in the actual film!

And yeah I forgot to mention Karen O in the post but she’s scoring the movie, it’s gonna be sick.

I can’t F-ing wait for this film. I adored the trailer and the Arcade Fire track accompanying it. Also, I noticed in the credits at the end, KAREN-O is doing the soundtrack!?!?! What is DIS?!?! October 16th can’t come soon enough.

any word on what version this is of wake up? it’s definitely not the one you posted. new arrangement obviously but vocals sound different too.
