Florian Mayer, singer and keyborder from the viennese based band blended wrote two "concepts" of songs for the movie. "Another dawn" [song | lyrics] is a wonderful song about the beauty of Malta, but also speaking about the environmental problems Malta has to face. "Something between us" [song | lyrics] is about the first encounter of two young people in St. Julians.
