Show and Tell: The Music Edition
Our busy-busy Bunny hasn’t had much time to play lately, and she’s suggested that she could use a little help with keeping the QAF love alive and thriving. To that end, etextraordinary, frantic_quest and I will start posting Show and Tells on Fridays (yes, it really does take three regular fangirls to do a fraction of the work of one Bunny. ;))

♥ ♥ ♥
So on with the showing and telling ...
The music in QAF is one of the greatest things about this show. How often have we watched a scene, not paying much attention to the music in the background at first, only later to realize just how perfectly the lyrics fit the moment? The first time I really noticed was the dozenth or so time I watched the end of 204 and actually paid attention to the lyrics of "Chiquitita" – and ended up in tears.

Since then I've realized there are many, many examples where the music adds so much to the story – and I want to discover them all!

Come play Show and Tell and share some of your favorites!

Brian at the end of 115 when his dad comes to the loft. This is probably one of my top 5 QAF songs. I never tire of hearing it.

How Soon Is Now ~ The Smiths

I am the sun
And the air
Of a shyness that is criminally vulgar
I am the sun and air
Oh, of nothing in particular

You shut your mouth
How can you say
I go about things the wrong way ?
I am Human and I need to be loved
Just like everybody else does

There's a club, if you'd like to go
You could meet somebody who really loves you
So you go, and you stand on your own
And you leave on your own
And you go home, and you cry
And you want to die

	I loved that song for years, and it was so perfect for that moment. The original version of 206 also used a song by the Smiths, Unlovable, when Debbie confronts Brian at Woody's. But they changed it when they released the dvds. (Reply to this) (Parent)
