Song used in Trauma


Just got done watching the anchor bay edition of Trauma. To say I loved it would be an understatement. I have one question though, whats the name of the song used in the film. The one played when the main character looks for Asia in the lake. Its also used during the menu sequence on the Anchor bay edition. Its truly beautiful and haunting. I know Pino did the score but who sang the song and whats the songs name. Figured I'd check here to see if anybody knows.

What about the reggae song at the end? Anyone know the band, song title?
That was a real odd ending. Why was she dancing on a porch with a reggae band?

The character played by Asia Argento is inspired by her half-sister Anna (Nicolodi's daughter from a previous marriage) who actually suffered from anorexia. Anna died in a scooter accident in 1994 shortly after the film's release, but she is seen in the actual movie during the closing credits dancing in the balcony.

I loved that song. It was beautiful and haunting. Argento uses some great music in his films and this was one of my favourites.
