  (Audio from promo album removed due to legal threat from Fox)

Availability:
The two commercial albums are regular international releases. The promotional album was produced during the awards season of December 2001 to January 2002 and experienced only a limited printing due to the score's lack of an Academy Award eligibility. It was never available in quantity at even the online soundtrack specialty outlets. Original copies of the promo will have the "Moulin Rouge" logo in red at the top and "Craig Armstrong" written in cursive on the bottom of the CD itself. On the inner-circle is the name and phone number of the management group (Blue Focus) that pressed the CD.

Awards:
  The score won a Golden Globe and a BAFTA Award. The song "Come What May" was also nominated for a Golden Globe. The first album was nominated for a Grammy Award. Armstrong won the "Best Composer" award from AFI as well.

The score and songs were deemed ineligible for Oscar nominations from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences because they contain too little original material.
