Belfast soundtrack: Every song featured in Kenneth Branagh’s film

Based loosely on the real-life experience of director Branagh, Belfast revolves around the life of a boy named Buddy (Jude Hill) in the Northern Irish capital, whose life is turned upside down at the outset of the Troubles in 1969.

Several tracks from Belfast-born musician Van Morrison lead the piece, along with other artists from the era. There are a number of bangers you’re bound to recognise. Cast member Jamie Dornan also shows off his singing skills for the film.

Read on for a list of songs which feature in the Belfast soundtrack.
