“I like songs in films when they have a relationship with the music that's gone on in the films.“
“On 'Everything I do' from Robin Hood - I wrote a song that I had carried around in my brain for some 20 years.”
"I went to Bryan Adams - also innocently - I didn’t know him very well. There wasn’t a thought that well, he's the biggest star in the world, he'll make a hit out of it - just that he’s a great voice - he'll sing it well.. the song's very pretty so we needed somebody with a rougher voice. Obviously Bryan and I have developed a relationship since then and I'm his biggest fan" - Michael Kamen (World Entertainment Report Profile 1996)
