    Looks cool. The soundtrack is composed by Alan Silvestri (see: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1827220...aq_2#fq0220793 and listen: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gOc-tzaFTu8 ).

    It's possible that the Yes-song was only used for the theme song of the trailer, because this site lists all the featured songs: https://www.thewrap.com/here-movie-s...all-the-songs/

    Too bad the actual film hasn't received very good reviews.

    Not only possible, but likely. A dear friend who recently retired had a career doing soundtracks for movie trailers, and rarely used anything actually from the film unless the producers told them to; often, they were doing the trailer before the soundtrack was even finished.

    Thanks for this inside-knowledge. I based my post only on my findings on google.

    They do that a lot. They use a song in the trailer, but not the picture itself. I remember the TV spots for Gung Ho, a late 80's Michael Keaton picture, used Turning Japanese by The Vapors, but the song was nowhere to be heard in the picture itself.

    So I clicked on the trailer, and the classic Yes tune started playing with subtitles. For the first time ever, I saw that the lyric was:

    "Make the white queen run so fast she hasn't got time to make you a wife"

    I always thought it was "time to make you white" in other words, like herself. I'm not even sure what the "wife" reference means. Does she wish to be your wife? Or is she attempting to assemble a wife for you?

    I've always heard "to make you wise," and the published sheet music agrees.

    Probably right then... I did check online lyric sources to make sure the "wife" line wasn't just bad auto-captioning. But those might be wrong also.

    Final word on this important matter

    My Yes Album "Expanded and Remastered" edition booklet has the lyric as "time to make you a wife". I would view that as definitive.
