}} "Reality" is a song performed by English singer Richard Sanderson. It was released in 1980 as part of the soundtrack to the popular 1980 French film ''La Boum'', which starred French actress Sophie Marceau (who later starred in popular films such as Academy Award-winning ''Braveheart'' and James Bond franchise ''The World Is Not Enough''). It was also served as the theme song to the 2011 Korean film ''Sunny''. Musically, "Reality" is a ballad, sometimes called an adult-contemporary song, and consists of synthesizers and guitar riffs which cause it to be classified under the soft-rock genre. It was composed by Vladimir Cosma, written by Jeff Jordan and produced by Pierre Richard Muller. Between 1980 and 1982, then in 1987 after its re-release, it became a major hit in Europe and Asia, topping the charts in fifteen countries including Germany, France, Italy, Austria, Finland and Switzerland and selling more than eight million copies worldwide, making it one of the best-selling singles of all time. The song led Richard Sanderson to stardom, giving him more hits with Cosma such as "Your Eyes", "She's a Lady", and "Sun". "Reality" was a very popular song in the 1980s, also becoming a popular slow dance hymn. Since its release, the song has been covered many times by various artists, including one singing a Spanish version of the song ("Mi realidad"). On ''DSDS'', the German equivalent of ''American Idol'', the song has been sung multiple times. In the film ''La Boum'', it also appears frequently (usually during the actors' romantic scenes), being the film's main theme song. For the film's 1982 sequel, ''La Boum 2'', the main song was changed to "Your Eyes", performed by Cook da Books. Because "Reality" has the same key as "Go On Forever" (another song played in the last part of the film, from the ''La Boum'' soundtrack and sung by Sanderson and Chantal Curtis), both songs are musically linked at the end of the film. The ''La Boum'' soundtrack album, which features the song "Reality", was made available on iTunes in 2009 by (Larghetto ).〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Party (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack La Boum) — Vladimir Cosma )〕 == Versions == In the 1980s, "Reality" became an instant hit in some countries in Europe, Japan, South Korea, Hong Kong and the Philippines. Because it has remained popular, it has continued to be released in various forms. Some of them were remixed or mashed up, and released on one of Sanderson's compilation albums and/or played on radio stations. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Reality (Richard Sanderson song)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
