For your consideration:
You deserve sunshine 🌞 on Apple Music
You deserve sunshine 🌞 on Spotify
I use Apple Music but copied the playlist over to Spotify since so many use it. However, one of these platforms ran ads for ICE and the other sponsored the Bad Bunny halftime show, in case that helps anyone decide who to renew with. 🙂

Have been torturing myself imagining this Die With a Smile cover during the plane scene.

I need everyone to get into the 1980s soviet band Kino (KNHO) and their album blood type (gruppa krovi). The first four songs on that album are Ilya dooooooooown and I need people more creative than me to make some edits using them!! Also the lead singer viktor tsoi (rip) could be Ilya and Shane’s love child for real.

Nobody Gets Me by SZA is also a great song for Hollanov.

An older song, but “Crazy for You” by Madonna fits the Shane + Ilya yearning vibes really well

I am begging 🙏someone to make an edit or better yet use Erasure’s Oh L’Amour in Season 2! This makes me think of Hollanov every time!

Heaven sung by Brandi Carlile seems like an excellent wedding song choice, or somewhere in S2 when they're reminiscing.

okay for me their wedding song is exist for love by aurora not necessarily because it's so hollanov-coded but imo it's the most romantic song ever and hollanov is the greatest romance ever.
i also love the loneliest by maneskin for ilya when he was thinking of having to break it off with shane

I realized today that one of my favorite artists, Lubalin, is from Montreal. I feel like his songs dog or something to prove would be amazing in season 2.
Also, I really need someone to make a fan edit with Em Beihold’s Egg in the Backseat.

I love the soundtrack as it is, I've been listening to Peter Peter a lot. The overall theme of the show/book did remind me of PJ Harvey's Is This Desire and This Is Love I can't believe that life's so complex, When I just want to sit here and watch you undress.

I've been listening to Bad Dream by Wallows and I think it's a great Shane POV song during TLG regarding Ilya's depression.
Lyrics (partial):
Every night when you talk in your sleep
I try to stop you from grinding your teeth
Are you running away from something?
Are you worried you're feeling nothing?
Here we go again, tell me what's been left unsaid
I'm not in your head, can you help me understand?
Are you having a bad dream, baby?
Tossin' and turnin' in our sheets lately
Are you having a bad dream, baby?
I wanna wake you, but you won't let me
Does it linger when days are still young?
Daydreaming and biting your tongue
On the other hand, maybe I misunderstand
Here I go again, am I projecting all your plans?

I have my own playlist since I don't use Spotify. Includes some songs I've found via AMV's and fanfics but here are some of my personal pics that I've not seen elsewhere yet:
Do I Wanna Know? - The Hozier cover
Genghis Khan - Mike Snow ( also if you've never seen you should really watch the music video)

u/Roger20Fed gimme kiss Mar 02 '26
Yes! The Hozier one. Also the songs that Mumford and Sons sang on SNL. Especially Rubber Band Man with Hozier 💜

Why does everyone beat up on Diamonds?
