Liveblogging Chuck finale music

I expect some good music during tonight’s Chuck season (hopefully not series) finale. I’ll post the music here. Keep checking back…

  • The Thermals – Now We Can See (iTunes)
  • Gramercy Arms – Looking at the Sun (iTunes)
  • Styx – Mr. Roboto (iTunes) (how awesome was Jeffster)
  • Slow Club – Christmas TV (iTunes) (played during the wedding)
  • The Cure – Friday I’m in Love (iTunes)
  • Blind Pilot – 3 Rounds and a Sound (iTunes)
  • How awesome was tonight’s episode? I’m wondering about that “To Be Continued…” though.

    Christmas TV Lyrics

    It’s okay to have scars, they will make you who you are
    It’s okay to have fear, as long as you’re not scared of going here
    And in the middle of the night, just call if you wanna talk
    ‘Cause you know that I wanna talk too

    It’s not bad of you to think ’bout what might go wrong
    But you can’t blame me for secretly hoping that I’ll prove you wrong
    It’s okay that I pray that you will miss your flight
    And have to stay with me another night

    It is brutal, it’s brutal, why can’t you see
    It’s brutal, it’s brutal, where have you been
    ‘Cause we’re far apart and my lonely heart
    Finds it hard to get through the night
    You pull me out of the dark and now it’s light
    You pull me out of the dark and now it’s light

    When we’re out in the market and out on the streets
    I’ve got a pocket full of problems and a pocket full of seeds
    Hoping something good might grow out of this mistletoe
    And I won’t have to erase your memory

    I like the way that our arguments stop when we fall asleep
    And the way that your body feels when it’s wrapped around me
    And I’d like it if you made it to mine by Christmas Eve
    So you can hold me
    And we’ll watch Christmas TV

    It is brutal, it’s brutal, why can’t you see
    It’s brutal, it’s brutal, where have you been
    ‘Cause we’re far apart and my lonely heart
    Finds it hard to get through the night
    You pull me out of the dark and now it’s light
    You pull me out of the dark and now it’s light

    So come on home, just come on home
    Just come on home, just come on home… (repeat)

    Some good music in tonight’s NBC shows – Bionic Woman and Life.

    Bionic Woman
    Great song at the end of a not so great episode. I don’t know how I can continue to watch this crap. Anyway, kudos for using an Earlimart song at the end. If you like Elliott Smith, you’ll like Earlimart. The song is called The Little Things (iTunes).


    Earlimart - Mentor Tormentor - The Little Things

    Lyrics
    Everyone I know
    Is running off somewhere,
    But still, the deep blue sea
    Is right in front of me.
    Well I guess I’ll wish them luck,
    When all they need is hell
    To keep them on their toes,
    Keep them safe and well.

    It sounds wrong, it sounds weird
    But everything we are is everything we fear.
    Don’t forget the little things.
    Don’t forget the little things.

    Everyone I know
    Is running out of love;
    Oh and it’s so sad,
    It’s the only thing we have.
    It’s the only thing we have.
    Love’s the only thing we have?

    Life
    Life is the best new show, and definitely uses great music. Tonight they used LCD Soundsystem – Daft Punk is Playing at My House (iTunes)

    LCD Soundsystem - LCD Soundsystem - Daft Punk Is Playing At My House

    Lyrics

    Daft punk is playing at my house, my house
    I’ll show you the ropes, kid, show you the ropes
    Got a bus and a trailer at my house, my house
    I’ll show you the ropes kid, show you the ropes
    I bought fifteen cases for my house, my house
    All the furniture is in the garage
    Well daft punk is playing at my house, my house
    You got to set them up kid, set them up

    Life – 10/31/2007 Episode

    OK – Life is the best new show on television. Great music too.

    Last week’s episode used the Morphine song Buena. Great song, great show.


    Morphine - Cure for Pain - Buena

      Lyrics

    I hear a voice from the back of the room
    I hear a voice cry out you want something good
    Well come on a little closer let me see your face
    Yea come on a little closer by the front of the stage
    I said come on a little closer I got something to say
    Yea come on a little closer wanna see your face
    You see I met a devil named Buena Buena

    ER Music – 11/1/2007

    ER is re-running stories. Guess that will happen when you’ve been on the air for 100 years.

  • Abby is still drinking
  • Kelly Osbourne wanna be tries to commit suicide
  • Tony’s patient with a terminal illness – is terminated
  • And the episode ends with Wilco – How to End the Loneliness (iTunes) – (at least they have good taste in music).


    Wilco - Summerteeth - How to Fight Loneliness

    Just finished watching the Journeyman pilot – and because of its time shifting theme, they use a lot of music to match the period. Well done, especially the end. I hate adding a serialized drama, but with the Heroes lead in, it might hang around a bit. Some songs from the show.

  • Sarah McLachlan – Building a Mystery (iTunes)
    Sarah McLachlan - Surfacing - Building a Mystery
  • Oasis – Champagne Supernova (iTunes)
    Oasis - (What's the Story) Morning Glory? - Champagne Supernova
  • The closing song is Look After You by the Fray.
    The Fray - How to Save a Life - Look After You

    Look After You (Lyrics)

    If I don’t say this now I will surely break
    As I’m leaving the one I want to take
    Forgive the urgency but hurry up and wait
    My heart has started to separate

    Oh, oh,
    Be my baby
    Ohhhhh
    Oh, oh
    Be my baby
    I’ll look after you

    There now, steady love, so few come and don’t go
    Will you won’t you, be the one I’ll always know
    When I’m losing my control, the city spins around
    You’re the only one who knows, you slow it down

    Oh, oh
    Be my baby
    Ohhhhhh
    Oh, oh
    Be my Baby
    I’ll look after you
    And I’ll look after you

    Look After You Lyrics on http://www.lyricsmania.com
    If ever there was a doubt
    My love she leans into me
    This most assuredly counts
    She says most assuredly

    Oh, oh
    Be my baby
    I’ll look after you
    After You
    Oh, oh
    Be my baby
    Ohhhhh

    It’s always have and never hold
    You’ve begun to feel like home
    What’s mine is yours to leave or take
    What’s mine is yours to make your own

    Oh, oh
    Be my baby
    Ohhhhh
    Oh, oh
    Be my baby
    I’ll look after you

    You are so beautiful to me (repeat)
