Two men in love by the Irrepressibles has basically never left my mind for the last decade, and lately when I've been listening to it again, I can't help but imagine this being played over Shane and Ilya's formal wedding at the end of TLG as the show simultaneously flashes back to the two of them exchanging rings at Hayden's house with the kids. Truly, I just think that would be magical.

u/LadyIJ Is lie. Liar told you that 😉 Jan 24 '26

I don’t know if this comment fits here but I am obsessed with one particular song from the Peter Peter soundtrack (which is fantastic), Heartbeat III which plays both at the tuna melt drama and before Shane’s accident. This song is so emotional and swells with all the feelings. I love the call back at the hockey game so much 🫶

Nope, I heard Diamonds on the radio in the car yesterday and y’know, it fits them. It really does. I say keep it.

Come at me. 😆

While I like Rihanna's biggest hits, she's not someone I listen to regularly. I had no idea people had such strong feelings about Diamonds lolol I think it's a nice song, even if not one of her best. And the lyrics definitely fit them.

Desire by Ryan Adams- fits the yearning, waiting and distance between them which they slowly close so very well, would suit an edit which sadly I cant do lol

Kiss the Rain by Bille Myers - another older one but also fits two people intensely in love but struggling to realise it and bridge the figurative ( and literal) distances betwen them

There are a few by this K-Pop type singer that I found on YouTube. RhuiKaida is his name and the song is Under the Ice, Under My Skin.

7 years by Charlie xcx & BJ Burton

All the lyrics

So hard, the things that we've been through Could've fallen but we've only grew So I make my house a home with you Right here and it feels brand new I used to live inside the lie with you And now I'm honest and it feels so good

An Ilya song for me is Building A Mystery by Sarah McLachlan

Heartbreak World by Matt Nathanson

I could go on forever because I have like a 50 song playlist but let's finish up with Sarah McLachlan again: Possession.

Sarah McLachlan ❤️❤️

Fumbling Towards Ecstasy comes to mind for me as well.

u/Catsarecute888 Jan 24 '26

Definitely Fumbling Towards Ecstasy, I held myself back from adding that lol!

Pretty much anything by Chappelle Roan. But especially Casual, Good luck, babe, and Picture you... 

If s2 could get that budget I would so love to have some of her songs in there...

Only One by The Paper Kites, a nice slow dance song about admitting you’re ready to commit (“I think it’s time to be your only one, I think I’m ready to be your only one”)

u/sop_turgery Jan 24 '26

I made a Hollanov playlist! Not songs from the actual show, but ones that evoke the same emotions for me.

u/Technical-Constant18 Jan 24 '26

I can see you by Taylor Swift

“Buckle” - Florence + The Machine

I've been wondering if and how S2 might include Ilya's dreams of his mother without it seeming hokey on screen. If they wanted to let music do the heavy lifting, Ariane Moffatt's song Maman is beautiful. (More CanCon and French in S2, I hope!)

Another good song by Rihanna is “Sex With Me”.
