In the MCU, Guardians of The Galaxy, is in a class of its own for two main reasons, most of the story happens in space and it is the only part of the franchise that relies heavily on music. This has been a constant from the first film even up to the conclusion of the trilogy. James Gunn, the film’s director has spoken about the creative process of choosing the songs for the films and said for the final part of the trilogy he had struggled to choose songs.
The soundtrack for Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol 3, just like the soundtrack for the preceding films, moves the plot forward and is set in a way that each song playing matches the action on the screen. This helps deepen the emotional connection that viewers already have from following a truly moving story. This soundtrack which is made up of songs from other artists is different from the score of the film which was composed by John Murphy.
When Each Song Plays In Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol.3
The Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol 3 soundtrack, also known as the Awesome Mix Vol.3, has a total of 17 songs. In the film, the songs are played from Peter Quill’s Zune which he got from his foster father Yondu at the end of Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol. 2.
