Music through TV shows
What music have you discovered by hearing the words on a TV show (as in an acted TV show, not a talk show, music show et al) or seen performed on it
Just found this mighty fine track from watching the DVDs from the show NUMB3RS Deccatree - Tonight |

There was a programme on BBC Three called Invasion of The Job Snatchers and there was a song by Lorde that I discovered.

If it wasn't for that montage of the Torch Relay during the London 2012 Opening Ceremony, I wouldn't have David Holmes' I Heard Wonders on my iPhone.

Milo Greene - What's the Matter from looking at the comments, pretty much everyone found this song via an episode of Supernatural.

All 8 seasons of Scrubs had an unbelievably good soundtrack, and I've picked up so many songs from watching it. Every song just seemed to fit the moment perfectly. "Winter" by Joshua Radin during Ben's funeral is probably the best example.

Here With Me - Dido: theme from Roswell TV show Run Boy Run - Woodkid. I'm obsessed with this track. I guarantee you've heard it. It's used regularly in loads of ads and promos, most recently (AFAIA) in the Spike TV channel and Cancer UK ads. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eje2r90MkGE Teardrop - Massive Attack: videogame ad Quote:

Ray Donovan always has great music on the soundtrack.
eg Kendra Morris - Banshee Have to say it must be the best job in the world to be a music supervisor for films and TV. |

I know it's a theme tune but thanks to The OC I found Phantom Planet's 'Calafornia'.. still a tune!

One for me is Tegan and Sara - I Was a Fool - from Hollyoaks. I really liked the song and ended up finding out the album it's from is really good too!
