Saltburn soundtrack: songs in Emerald Fennell film including Sophie Ellis-Bextor's Murder on the Dancefloor
It seems every lad and his Labradoodle's talking about Saltburn right now, no?
Emerald Fennell's latest psychological black comedy, starring Barry Keoghan, Jacob Elordi and Rosamund Pike, landed on Amazon Prime Video on December 22nd; and it's been causing quite the commotion ever since. And it's not only the movie's stunning cinematography, satirical storyline and very naked scenes that've got the world talking.
The soundtrack slaps, too.
Set in mid-noughties England, Saltburn's soundtrack serves as a welcome slice of nostalgia for millennials, while introducing new audiences to some undeniable Y2K bangers (look no further than Sophie Ellis-Bextor's Murder on the Dancefloor, which is experiencing quite the chart resurgence in the UK and on the US Billboard Hot 100 right now).
