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

    Journeyman Pilot - music and thoughts

    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)
