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!

Sadly I don't know all the episodes or song names

Did you see the Princess of Babylon link

kari77 posted above? It's the complete QAF song list, organized by episode, and a huge help when you're grasping to remember what song you heard where!

All of these are such great choices! I love this: Then, who could forget "Straight to number one"? Whenever I hear it, I think of the reverence and adoration on young Justin's face. - yes, "reverence" is the perfect word here. (But then whose bad idea was it to re-use this song a few episodes later for Michael and Dr. Dave?? Yikes!)

I've seen that site before, but I was on a different computer and didn't have it in the bookmarks, so thank you ♥ It's brilliant!

I'm having a S1 marathon at the moment and I saw that scene with Michael and David today. I fastforwarded because I just couldn't stand to watch it! I don't know, I'm really not into Michael's sex scenes, but David was so annoying. (Although at times he does have his moments.) That said, when we saw him with glasses on I actually squealed "Oh, BEN!" until I realized, nooo... Dammit. Haha.
