Yep, at the Toronto screening, John Carney said that was completely intentional - he was looking out the window or something and just watching everyone walk by, when this couple walked by and he had no idea who they were or what their story was as he kept watching.

And that's kind of how he wanted the audience to feel when watching the movie - like you were just watching these two anonymous people walk by, completely free of predisposed judgments.

(just got my copy in the mail the other day too! definitely an Oscar worthy soundtrack as far as I'm concerned )
