Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason, Original Motion Picture Soundtrack was released in 2004 to accompany the sequel to the 2001 film Bridget Jones’s Diary. The album featured a mix of contemporary pop and classic tracks aligned with the film’s romantic comedy tone.
Robbie Williams contributed the song Misunderstood, written with Stephen Duffy. The track was recorded specifically for the film and later included on Greatest Hits as one of two new studio recordings.
Built around a piano led arrangement with orchestral elements, Misunderstood reflects the film’s themes of regret and emotional complexity. Williams’ restrained vocal performance complements the reflective tone of the narrative.
The soundtrack achieved commercial success in the UK, and Williams’ contribution formed part of a series of high profile film related recordings during the mid 2000s phase of his career.
