Bryan Ferry – Is Your Love Strong Enough (Canada 12″)

BURNING THE GROUND EXCLUSIVE 1986

BTG week of LOVE! 

In 1985 Bryan Ferry contributed the song “Is Your Love Strong Enough” to the Ridley Scott-Tom Cruise film Legend. The song (featuring guitar work by David Gilmour) plays during the end credits of the U.S. theatrical release, and was released with the Tangerine Dream version of the soundtrack on CD (although this is out of print and rare). A promotional music video was created, integrating Ferry and Gilmour into scenes from the film; this is included as a bonus in the 2002 “Ultimate Edition” DVD release. The song was later covered by How To Destroy Angels for the soundtrack to the 2011 US version of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo.

“Is Your Love Strong Enough” reached the 321 position on the UK singles chart.
