MVfan Posted October 30, 2008 Report Share Posted October 30, 2008 What are your favorite songs used in any of the episodes?One of mine is Dangerous Game from Blood & Roses. Great song used for a Testarossa scene, and fitting for the situation Gina was in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dadrian Posted October 30, 2008 Report Share Posted October 30, 2008 "in the air tonight" from the pilot is the obvious choice.the first ones that come to mind are "in the air tonight", "picture book" from good collar, "holding back the years" from by hooker by crook, and "cry" from definitely miami. if you'll notice, there's a final sequence pattern in my choices (except for the first). if the ep has a good ending with the perfect song, that tends to stick with me.

23bw Posted October 30, 2008 Report Share Posted October 30, 2008 good ending with the perfect song' date=' that tends to stick with me.[/quote']Same with me which is why "What's love got to do with it" from Return of Calderone II is one of my favs. But I agree "In the air tonight" from the pilot ranks #1.

MVfan Posted October 31, 2008 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2008 I agree about the ending sequence songs. Those tend to be the ones I remember, too. Some of my favorite episodes are the ones that had a good song at the end that sort of summarized the tone of the episode.Another one of my favorites is "Brothers In Arms" from "Out Where the Buses Don't Run" - great somber song for the end scene and Hank's character.

Dadrian Posted October 31, 2008 Report Share Posted October 31, 2008 yeah, "edge of town" is one of my favorite testarossa scenes, even though they threw in the footage from season 3 (shadow in the dark).that wasn't as bad as the boat chase on "god's work". they threw a clip of the scene from my "mccarthy" cover in there. that's not even a scarab, for crying out loud! :)anyway, sorry to get off subject. i love "edge of town". i got that cd and nothing else on there sounds like it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ivoryjones Posted January 7, 2009 Report Share Posted January 7, 2009 Obviously, "Send it to me" by Gladys Knight, right after "Lover" by Roxy Music!Just kidding:):)I couldn't choose a song without thinking also about the way it's used in its particular scene.So It had to be "Voices" by Russ Ballard.
