Your favorite songs from BtVS and AtS (except the themes, OMWF etc.)?

[JCoatsworth]

Hi!

I just once again listened to Got the Love by the Average White Band.
It's one of my favorite songs and it came to my mind again that I originally know it from Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered.

So I was thinking, what are your favorite songs that are being played in Buffy the Vampire Slayer or Angel.
I don't mean the score by Christophe Beck or the songs from Once More with Feeling and I also don't mean the shows' opening themes or Giles' song from Restless (even though it's frickin' awesome).
I mean normal songs that weren't written for the show or are being played regularly.

I guess we can let the songs from the karaoke bar count, since they're covers. I also love Giles' version of Freebird by Lynyrd Skynyrd. I nearly died when I heard him play it. They're one of my favorite bands.


So... what songs do you like?

Love Four Star Mary. Or as some may call them: Dingoes ate my baby!

But I don't really know if this song is played in BTVS. Well the following one is:

And the last song is still great! Makes me always sad and swimming in my thoughts about so many things!

Oh, yes, I remember that one. What episode is it from?

Let's see:

My fav is Aimee Mann's Pavlov's Bell. I love Aimee Mann, love that song, love that BtVS performance! It's my fav Bronze performance: the way the song reflects what Spike is going through in that episode, the vampire fight, when Spike stakes the vampgirl and she falls from the balcony onto the floor and interrupts the song while she dusts, Aimee's reaction, her speaking line (the only speaking part by a performer in the entire series)- "I hate playing vampire towns".

I also like "Living Dead Girl" from AtS Five by Five.

I really, really liked when they played "Goodbye To You" in "Tabula Rasa".
Also, I liked "Wild Horses" in "The Prom", and "Full of Grace" in "Becoming"

I also really loved "Wish we never met" by Kathleen Wilhoite (played when Willow finds out about Xander and Faith) and "Inconsolable" by Jonatha Brooke (from Prophecy girl)
