favorite song from the show ?

what is your favorite song from the show ?
mine is comfortably numb
and alabama 3 sad eyed lady of the low life

Wheel In The Sky by Journey.

and Thru and Thru by The Rolling Stones.

Too many !

But one of my favorites.

Ohh great choices hollander !!

And yours too afriendofours !
Wheel in the sky is definitely a hit !

The show has 478 songs lol.

the thing is that almost 95% of them are good lol

You'd have to make a short list of bad songs on the show. David Chase's first love was music, he was in a Jersey rock band before he got into television, hence the inspiration for his movie Not Fade Away. He cast Little Steven of the E Street Band as a mobster. Who would think of that? lol.

One song on the soundtrack that I never get tired of:

I always thought steven van zandt choose the music...

I'm sure he had a lot of input. I seemed to have read somewhere that Chase's daughter, Michele DeCesare, who played Meadow's friend Hunter, actually put together the "Every Breath You Take/Peter Gunn" mash up. I believe she was a music student at that time.

i thought she his in med school lol

You're being kind. She was kicked out for partying and drunk driving.

haha

Ill go also with Otis Redding My Lovers Prayer. It goes so well with the scene.

Van Morrison- Glad Tidings
Chi-Lites Oh Girl
"My Rifle, Pony and Me" Dean Martin, Ricky Nelson

So many great songs in the series and this reason the show is so good.

"So many great songs in the series and this reason the show is so good".
I agree !

also america - sister golden hair is good song !
and thanks to the sopranos i found out the sil ( little steven ) is a musician and then i found about out his songs :
can´t you feel the fire
forever
and Never gonna be your friend
i love those songs !

Ohh such a great song !

To this day every time I hear that song I think of poor Bobby Senior crashing into that pole.

I remember when the show was airing, someone on the usenet forums pointed out that earlier in that episode, Meadow is listening to headphones and singing a song called "Leave Me Breathless" and they thought it was intentional foreshadowing of how Baccala senior would die. lol. Probably coincidence, but you never know with these writers. They are clever.

I think it was planned out.
like you said the writers are clever...

Great song, Hollander. Like the Motown sound. Good concept by Little Steven. Song plays when Tony and Junior decide to kill Jimmy Altieri.

Drinkin a few beers while listening to all the songs on spotify.

My dutch brother Eddie van Halen.

Hollander i see you love my thread lol

.

This song goes well with the long scene.

I’ve listened to this five times toningt and sure to more

Anyone want to take a crack at breaking down the "Seven Souls" song at the beginning of Members Only, how the lyrics relate to the story and characters?

tiny tears is also a good song !
almost makes me cry lol

Not only the best song used but best ending to a soprano episode ever. This scene alone can show the world what endeared us to Tony Soprano. He may be a boss (of a glorified crew) but he is still a human and above all a man. And Zellman fucked up by dipping into Irina.

"All the girls in North Jersey you had to fuck this one" go ahead, cry like a Bitch"

My favorite is the season 2 ending Thru and Thru. I also like Nobody Loves Me But You from A Hit Is a Hit. But really too many too many to choose from. The music was a big part of the show just like in a Scorsese film.

Ohh that song is from jackie's funeral ! It's such a great song.
Mazzy star also got another great song - fade into you, i love that song !

Best use of a song on The Sopranos IMO was Fred Neil's "The Dolphins" playing over the scene where Christopher relapses on heroin.

Yeah with the dog
Also good use is in season 5 after the dinner with bobby and janice when janice started go crazy and tried to stab tony with the fork,
Then tony get out and they played the kinks song i'm not like everybody else.

I wonder what's French-Canadian for, "I grew up without a mother"? Sacre bleu!!! where is mi momma!!!!!

Haha poor harpo

One of the few scenes where Tony annoyed me. haha. Was uncalled for, but he did it for a reaction from Janice. She was doing so well with her anger management..

DeNiro... now what in God's name in 1957, in a auditorium adorned for a dance or a Grad -hop did u think any 15 yr. old was doing to himself when he heard Dear Connie moan this sexy ass tune..why.. he of course wanted b 2 left alone in the bathroom stall or he pre-matured behind the hot dog stand...Connie was as sexy as they come back then.

Hollander...The more elusive ones r much better.."Im the One",,,Atomic Punk..Light up the sky..Romeo Delight

My favorite song from the show was Frente a Frente the Boca song. When junior took his girl friend to Boca.

Also the song when tony was fucking Gloria the car girl. Forget the name the song by Silvio “ Affection” when he was with the lost boys good song. I have it on one of my iPads somewhere.

Always enjoyed seeing what music they would have on while the girls danced at the Bing.

Van Morrison - Glad Tidings when Tony B gets it.

In my opinion it is the best marriage of song and scene in any sopranos episode.

"And we bring you glad tidings from New York"...fuckin brilliant.

" Home " by Persephone's Bees. It plays at the end of the episode in which Vito is offed in his Motel room hideout.

Tindersticks - Running Wild

Good old Van Morrison..

Seems to have aged well:

ohh that's a good song !
and great episode too !
i always wonder what happened with furio, but that's exactly why that show is great ! there are so many things to wonder, so many things left unsolved which give us the opportunity to guess.

Word has it Federico Castelluccio (Furio) was written off the show for leaking script details.

That has been around for awhile Oaks, he had a girlfriend around the time Made was being filmed that was in the media and leaked minor plots in Made and the Sopranos, nothing serious for the writers to just get rid of Furio.

Favorite song from the series? There are many as they did a good job of setting the scene up. I would have to say "Glad Tidings" by Van Morrison. It was played in the finale of season 5.

Tiny Tears was my favorite song for sure from the series. Perfect song for that episode!

The Kinks "Living on a thin line" and Journey "Don't stop Believing."

Reason for the Journey pick is not because of the finale, but because it is in fact a favorite of mine and was chosen as the song that my wife and I used for our wedding reception entrance.

"Wrapped in a Memory" by Shawn Smith. Plays at the end of the Long Term Parking episode. Don't know what it is about it, but I just love the song.

"Living on a Thin Line" would be right there for me as well.

Loved Emmylou Harris’ “Heaven Only Knows”

Best TV Soundtrack since Miami Vice.
