So Whirlwind from BD that we associate so much with FÅ was already written long before the film.
This is interesting to note I think.
Moodysson really had an ear for what would be suitable music in the film.
And FÅ meant a breakthrough to a much bigger audience for BD as Dahls said.

Also Moodysson wanted to use The Smiths and Morrissey solo material for the film, Marr (guitarist and co songwriter of the smiths said yes, Morrissey said no to both the smiths material and his solo music). So I say Broder Daniel were happy he said no.

Just as a side-note. John Ajvide Lindqvist (like Moodysson, a big fan of The Smiths) had to substantially re-write sections of his third novel (in English) 'Harbour' to remove quotes from songs by the Smiths under pain of huge financial penalties, to the point where parts of it don't make sense.
So, Morrissey, like Agnes, just because you are a vegetarian doesn''t mean you are not a jävla fitta.

That's why he ended up with BD and a lot of other fairly unknown bands.
The BD songs were excellent for the film though, so no loss there I think.
"Drifter" is likewise great for the films intro.

I like more Show me love, I can't imagine the film without this song, simply belongs to it. But WEH is also nice song, but I feel of it that is a little more modern for FA. BTW, With Every Hearthbeat was already in 2005
