Persuasion Soundtrack: Every Song in the 2022 Netflix Movie
- “Quietly Yours” by Birdy (01:39:00): The Persuasion soundtrack song first plays during the film’s final act. Birds sing as Anne shares an intimate moment with Frederick outdoors. The characters kiss as the vocalist Birdy begins singing. Anne and Frederick smile while holding each other and enjoying the moment. The Persuasion soundtrack song continues during a climactic montage. William (Henry Golding) gets married and Mary (Mia McKenna-Bruce) attends the event. After the music briefly stops — as Fredericks chats with Anne by the sea — it picks up again at 01:42:00 during a kiss scene. The track scores the film’s final moments and end credits.
