I love this show, great writing and acting but honestly it just wouldn't have the same vibe without the music. Perfect, just perfect I couldnt have picked a better set of songs to accompany this uniquely ambiguous show.
SOme of my faves: Rocket Man, You Can't Always Get What You Want, Light of DAy and Surrender.

You'll flash back to the scenes while listening to the songs that played in the background. Includes two of the songs sung by Madeleine Martin (Becca) during the last season. You'll smile, and you'll shake your head. That darn Hank Moody anyway.
