A Knight’s Tale, Original Motion Picture Soundtrack was released in 2001 to accompany the film directed by Brian Helgeland. The soundtrack combined contemporary rock recordings with new interpretations of classic material featured in the film.
Robbie Williams contributed a version of Queen’s We Are the Champions, recorded for the closing sequence. His interpretation retains the anthem’s structure while incorporating a more modern production style suited to the film’s stylised approach.
The inclusion of Williams’ recording aligned with the film’s use of recognisable rock songs within a medieval setting, blending historical imagery with contemporary music. His vocal performance emphasises the triumphant character of the original composition.
The soundtrack reached the UK top ten, and Williams’ contribution formed part of his broader presence in early 2000s film related releases alongside his ongoing solo career.
