Episode 3.01 – Bad Blood

Artist: Beck

Listen: http://www.beck.com/index.php/beck-contributes-new-song-to-true-blood-soundtrack

Bad Blood [Version (a)]:

Oh here it comes now
Got its eye on you
I’ll keep your door locked tight
I’ll keep your children safe
When the wolf comes (ah ooh)

I don’t care if it takes all night
‘Cause there’s bad blood
Pumping in your veins
It’s alright

Turncoat poison in the dropping rain
In the gaslight hours
Hear the ghost on the train
I’ll pull the ?? down
At the cavalry crown
I’ve seen the worst of it
Turn into the moment
You lost your way

Here it comes now
Got its eye on you
Better run, better run
When it’s knock knock knockin’
At your door

I don’t care if it takes all night
Got the bad blood pumpin’
Through your veins
It’s alright
It’s alright
It’s alright
It’s alright

Episode 3.02 – Beautifully Broken

Song: I’m Alive

Artist:  Shelby Lynne

Video: 

Lyrics:

Engines rev and trumpets roar
I don’t hear your voice no more
And living isn’t worth the fear of dying
Wrapped up package torn up clothes
Empty days and deep dark holes
The only thing that keeps a man from crying

Oh if I don’t get you back I’ll fall upon a railroad track
And let the steel wheels cut right through my bones
Oh if I don’t get you back I’ll cover up my bloody tracks
With sorrow hopes and hide my dying pride
Oh cause I’m alive

Whispers in a losers dream
Holding on to not a thing
Cause these arms now are paralyzed without you to hold
Bold with crazy have no fear
Children cry and then I hear
The message my lies tell me in my dreams

Oh if I don’t get you back I’ll fall upon a railroad track
And let the steel wheels cut right through my bones
Oh if I don’t get you back I’ll cover up my bloody tracks
With sorrow hopes and hide my dying pride
Oh cause I’m alive

Maybe if I caught the rain
In pails that filter out the pain
I’d realize why you had to go
Days of lightning show the way
And night time creeps and holds at bay
The missing you, the mean, the cold, the ugly

Oh if I don’t get you back I’ll fall upon a railroad track
And let the steel wheels cut right through my bones
Oh if I don’t get you back I’ll cover up my bloody tracks
With sorrow hopes and hide my dying pride
Oh cause I’m alive

Episode 3.03 – It Hurts Me Too

 Artist: Elmore James

Video:

Lyrics:
You said you was hurting, almost lost your mind,
And the man you love, he hurts you all the time.
When things go wrong, go wrong with you, it hurts
me, too.

You love him more when you should love him less. I
pick up behind him and take his mess. When things
[ Find more Lyrics on http://mp3lyrics.org/Rz6 ]
go wrong, go wrong with you, it hurts me, too.

He love another woman and I love you, But you love
him and stick to him like glue. When things go
wrong, go wrong with you, it hurts me, too.

Now you better leave him; he better put you down.
Oh, I won’t stand to see you pushed around. When
things go wrong, go wrong with you, it hurts me,
too.

Episode 3.04 – 9 Crimes

Artist: Damien Rice

Video: 

Lyrics:
Leave me out with the waste, this is not what I do
It’s the wrong kind of place to be thinking of you
It’s the wrong time for somebody new
It’s a small crime and I got no excuse
And is that all right, yeah?
I give my gun away when it’s loaded
Is that all right, yeah?
If you don’t shoot it how am I supposed to hold it?
Is that all right, yeah?
I give my gun away when it’s loaded
Is that all right, yeah, with you?
Leave me out with the waste, this is not what I do
It’s the wrong kind of place to be cheating on you
It’s the wrong time she’s pulling me through
It’s a small crime and I got no excuse
And is that all right, yeah?
If I give my gun away when it’s loaded
Is that all right, yeah?
If you don’t shoot it, how am I supposed to hold it?
Is that all right, yeah?
I give my gun away when it’s loaded
Is that all right?
Is that all right with you?
Is that all right, yeah?
If I give my gun away when it’s loaded
Is that all right, yeah?
If you don’t shoot it, how am I supposed to hold it?
Is that all right, yeah?
I give my gun away when it’s loaded
Is that all right?
Is that all right with you?
And is that all right, yeah?
Is that all right?
Is that all right?
Is that all right with you?
No?
 

Episode 3.05 – Trouble

Artist: Suzi Quatro, written by Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller.

Video:

Lyrics:

If you’re looking for trouble, boy, you’ve come to the right place
If you’re looking for trouble just look right in my face
I was born standing up and talking back
My daddy was a green-eyed mountain, Jack
‘Cause I’m evil
Misery is my middle name
Well, I’m evil
So don’t you mess around with me

I never look for trouble, but I never ran
And I don’t take no orders from no kind of man
I’m only made out of flesh blood and bone
But if you gonna start a rumble don’t you try it all alone
‘Cause I’m evil
Misery is my middle name
Well, I’m evil
So don’t you mess around with me

Episode 3.06 – I Gotta Right to Sing the Blues

Lyrics:

“I gotta right to sing the blues” by Billie Holiday, plays while Lorena tortures Bill. (or is it the other way around?)

Episode 3.07 -Hitting the Ground

Artist: Polly Jean Harvey

Lyrics:

I was beaten up, I was beaten down
By my life and a photographic sound
I was filled with love, I was filled with rage
My life book shook with the turning of it’s page

Hitting the ground, hitting the ground
And there ain’t no friend round, never be found
Hitting the ground, hitting the ground
And there ain’t no-one there to help you come down

I was not on drugs, I was not on beer
I was still with love, I was full of fear
If I asked the question, life will tell no lie
Love will ask the question are you willing to die

Hitting the ground, hitting the ground
And there ain’t no friend round, never be found
Hitting the ground, hitting the ground
And there ain’t no-one there to help you come down

I’m gonna go way up in an aeroplane
I’m gonna go way out insane
I don’t know if I’d ever come down
I don’t know if I can reach the ground

Hitting the ground, hitting the ground
And there ain’t no friend round, never be found
Hitting the ground, hitting the ground
And there ain’t no-one there to help you come down

I’m gonna go way up in an aeroplane
I’m gonna go way out insane
I don’t know if I’d ever come down
I don’t know if I can reach the ground

I was beaten up, I was beaten down
By my life and a photographic sound
I was filled with love, I was filled with rage
My life book shook with the turning of it’s page

Hitting the ground, hitting the ground
And there ain’t no friend round, never be found
Hitting the ground, hitting the ground
And there ain’t no-one there to help you come down

Episode 3.08 -Night on the Sun

Artist: Otep/ Otep Shamaya

Song: Head of Medusa

Lyrics:

In that final look
Does the deer forgive the wolf ?

You’ve stolen my fascination
You’ve amothered my holy addiction

And now I’m soaked in you
Like fat white worms or sad haikus

I woke up
& the worldwas on the fire

I woke up
& the swine had conspired

To erase all the faith
That I have in the human race

I woke up
& the world was on fire

It’s all in your head
It’s all in your head
They said I need to flee

Are they shepherds ?
Or are they sheep ?
Are we the butchers ?
Or are we meat ?

In this nest of lies
Living a life under siege
We sink in the stink
& I need my disease

It’s all in your head
They said I need to flee
This neverending ordinary monarchy

Beneath the toxic water
Where my secrets come to meet
In catacombs of shadow
& wet skies of mystery

I found a soggy savior
A painted lady made of eyes
She sings to me, my deceit
“your life is a lie”

I woke up
& the world was on fire

I woke up
& the swine had conspired

To erase all the faith
That I have in the human race

I woke up
& the world
Was
On
Fire

It’s all in your head
It’s all in your head
They said I need to flee

Are they shepherds ?
Or are they sheep ?
Are we the butchers ?
Or are we meat ?

In this nest of lies
Living a life under siege
We sink in the stink
& I need my disease

It’s all in your head
They said I need to flee
This neverending ordinary monarchy

If we stand too still,
They’re gonna eat us alive !

Watch your tongue,
Teach them young…

Medicate the mutiny.
Better living through chemistry
Self destruction’s patriotic.
Money fixes everything.

Wach your tongue,
Teach them young…

We’re taught
To love & hate
To fight & obey…

I’ve lost my mind,
But I’ve found my way

(in this nest of lies
Every wall has eyes)

It’s all in your head
It’s all in your head
They said I need to flee

Are they shepherds ?
Or are they sheep ?
Are we the butchers ?
Or are we meat ?

In this nest of lies
Living a life under siege
We sink in the stink
& I need my disease

It’s all in your head
They said I need to flee
This neverending ordinary monarchy

Episode 3.09 -Everything is Broken

Artist: Bob Dylan

Video:

Lyrics:

Everything Is Broken

Broken lines, broken strings,
Broken threads, broken springs,
Broken idols, broken heads,
People sleeping in broken beds.
Ain’t no use jiving
Ain’t no use joking
Everything is broken.

Broken bottles, broken plates,
Broken switches, broken gates,
Broken dishes, broken parts,
Streets are filled with broken hearts.
Broken words never meant to be spoken,
Everything is broken.

Seem like every time you stop and turn around
Something else just hit the ground

Broken cutters, broken saws,
Broken buckles, broken laws,
Broken bodies, broken bones,
Broken voices on broken phones.
Take a deep breath, feel like you’re chokin,’
Everything is broken.

Every time you leave and go off someplace
Things fall to pieces in my face

Broken hands on broken ploughs,
Broken treaties, broken vows,
Broken pipes, broken tools,
People bending broken rules.
Hound dog howling, bullfrog croaking,
Everything is broken.”

Episode 3.10 -I Smell a Rat

Artist: Patty Griffin

Video:

Lyrics:

I smell a rat baby
I smell a rat baby
You’d better watch out
I smell a rat, babe
You won’t tell me where you been
Whiskey running all down your chin
I smell a rat baby
I smell a rat baby
You’d better watch out
I smell a rat baby
You come stumbling down the hall
Bump your head up against the wall
Knock down drunk and that ain’t all
I know you been having yourself a ball
I smell a rat baby
I smell a rat baby
You’d better watch out
I smell a rat baby
You come stumbling down the hall
Bump your head up against the wall
Knock down drunk and that ain’t all
I know you been having yourself a ball
I smell a rat baby
I smell a rat baby
You’d better watch out
I smell a rat baby
I smell a rat baby
I smell a rat baby
Yeah

Episode 3.11 – Fresh Blood

Episode 3.12 -Evil is Going On

video:

Artist: Howlin’ Wolf

Lyrics:

by Chester Burnett a.k.a. Howlin’ Wolf
recording of 1969
from Evil (Chess 1540)

If you’re a long way from home, can’t sleep at night
Grab your telephone, something just ain’t right
That’s evil, evil is goin’ on wrong
I am warnin’ ya brother, you better watch your happy home

Well, long way from home and, can’t sleep at all
You know another mule is, kickin’ in your stall
That’s evil, evil is goin’ on wrong
I am warnin’ ya brother, you better watch your happy home

(spoken: You better catch him, ’cause somethin’s wrong, in your home)

Well, if ya call her on the telephone, and she answers awful slow
Grab the first train smokin’, if you have to hobo
That’s evil, evil is goin’ on wrong
I am warnin’ ya brother, you better watch your happy home

If you make it to your house, knock on the front door
Run around to the back, you’ll catch him, just before he go
That’s evil, evil is goin’ on
I am warnin’ ya brother, you better watch your happy home

  1. My favorites are “9 Crimes” and “Beautifully Broken” by Govt Mule. Apparently, there’s a lot of symbolism around the 9 Crimes song, pertaining to turning to love another person while still being in love with someone else. If there’s one thing these songs blast out to me loud and clear, it’s this. Bill will become re-enthralled with Lorena, cheat on Sookie with Lorena, but will still be in love with Sookie at the same time. Eric will learn of Bill’s unfaithfulness to Sookie with Lorena and will want Sookie to give up on Bill and come into his arms.

    • I think “9 Crimes” might be from Sookie’s pov, being in love with Bill but “cheating” on him by constantly thinking about Eric and feeling guilty about it.

      Any of the “It Hurts Me Too” versions sounds like Eric talking about Sookie, and the “Beautifully Broken” versions definitely sound like Lorena.

      Regardless, and no matter what we “think” we see on the screen the truth of TB is always in the music.

  2. I can’t wait to see what else is coming. I like how they are linking them to songs. REally insightful

  3. Episode 9: Everything is Broken.. Bob Dylan i think :)

  4. Yep, just now got it updated. And by ‘everything is broken’ I hope they mean “Bill and Sookie are kaput” LOL.

  5. VikingLover said:

    Are these the actual songs that will be featured on TB??

  6. Might “Beautifully Broken” be Ashlee Simpson’s song? I have admittedly horrible taste in music, but as soon as I heard that was the title of the episode, I could only imagine AS’s obscure song. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3IuEiNY-Bmo

    “Beautifully Broken”

    It seems like yesterday that my world fell from the sky
    It seems like yesterday I didnt know how hard I could cry
    It feels like tomorrow I may not get by
    But I will try
    I will try wipe the tears from my eyes

    [Chorus:]
    I’m beautifully broken and I don’t mind if you know it
    I’m beautifully broken and I don’t care if I show it

    Every day is a new day I’m reminded of my past
    Everytime theres another storm I know that it wont last
    Every moment I’m filled with hope
    cause i get another chance
    But I will try I will try
    Got nothing left to hide

    [Chorus]

    Without the highs and the lows
    Where will we go?
    Where will we go?

    [Chorus]

    I am beautifully broken, I am beautifully broken
    I am beautifully broken and I don’t care if I show it
    [Repeats til end, and fades out]

    • I listened to the Ashley Simpson song and it just doesn’t fit for me. The music and lyrics sounds so upbeat. It’s hard for me to picture that this would be a song choice for this point in TB when everything is so down and depressing. If this song is it then who is the one “Beautifully Broken”? Sookie? Ok so lets just say it is Sookie for a second. I can understand after the phone call (I saw it in a preview) how she would be beaten down feeling but I don’t think she would automatically turn around and be able to see the bright side so soon (“I am beautifully broken and I don’t care if I show it”) “. This song suggest someone that has accepted and come to terms with their flaws and their relationship and decided they’re not going to let it get them down. I just remember how Sookie was when watching her pine for Bill when she thought he was dead. In my mind, a break-up is worth than a death because everytime you see that person harsh feelings boil back to the surface, whereas if someone dies you they’re not bouncing back in your face causing your to mourn more. I just can’t wrap my head around this song. Sorry.

  7. Mc: I saw today that ep 10 could be possibly be called ‘I smell a Rat’. Now i can’t find a song with just that title, but there is a White Stripes song called ‘I Think I Smell a Rat’. I really don’t think it would fit as well as the other titles, but who knows

    Oh I think I smell a rat
    oh I think I smell a rat
    all you little kids
    seem to think you know
    just where it’s at
    oh I think I smell a rat
    walking down the street
    carrying a baseball bat
    oh I think I smell a rat

    Oh I think I smell a rat
    oh I think I smell a rat
    all you little kids
    seem to think you know
    just where it’s at
    oh I think I smell a rat
    using your mother and father
    for a welcome mat
    oh I think I smell a rat

    Heads up: Evidently, the title of episode 3.01 has been changed to “Bad Blood”…

  9. I like the choise of lyrics for “it hurts me too”… especially the Bob Dylan version, that suits Eric. “Everything is broken” could be the end of S/B relationship. And “9 crimes” sounds like a struggle of emotions between E/S : It’s the wrong kind of place to be thinking of you; It’s the wrong time for somebody new.
    I’m loving that they use songs to describe the feel of the episodes, ‘couse like Sunny said “Regardless, and no matter what we “think” we see on the screen the truth of TB is always in the music.”

    • I love that Bob Dylan song Freyja. I love Bob Dylan, period.

      But, I do think Beck’s new track on the s2 soundtrack “Bad Blood” will be the song for the first ep. I like it but I was hoping so much for the Shakespeare’s Sister.

  10. VikingLover said:

    Hey Sunny, FYI: I read a spoiler that the song for ep 12 “Evil (is going on)” is actually a Jace Everett song from the Season 2 TB soundtrack.

    • VikingLover said:

      Oh duh, never mind. I see that it’s a remake of the Howlin’ Wolf song you posted. Never mind! :)

  11. what are you thoughts on the new episode 3.06 song?

  12. Sunny, do you have the 2nd soundtrack? Because I was wondering about the songs that aren’t in season 2 that aren’t title tracks either,.. do you think they will all be insert songs? I know the Elvis Costello song, ‘Kiss Like Your Kiss,’ was written for a romantic scene in season 3, but I wonder which episode its in and who is the couple?

    The other song I was wondering about, ‘Fresh Blood’ is from the promos, but I would think they would include it for better reasons than that. There are a few others and I don’t know if they were already insert songs or not but I don’t really care about them, lol. Although I have to say ‘You did (Bomp Shooby Dooby Bomp)’ is DEFINITELY an Eric and Sookie song. LOL.

    • I just listened to the Costello song and it’s lovely :) Hopefully it’s for S/E ;)

    • Where are the lyrics for that??
      It doesnt have to mean its their last kiss!

      • Though I hope it’s the last kiss for S/B! hah

      • Here you go Katya. I find it interesting the Nathan Barr helped write the music, with the inclusion of the guitar and cello parts. To me it means it was constructed to fit in with the score, but I still can’t place whose song it is.

        “Kiss Like Your Kiss”

        There’ll never be a spring so perfect again
        You’ll never see a yellow so rich
        The grass will never be quite as green
        And there’ll never be a kiss like your kiss.

        There’ll never be a summer so complete
        You will never see a palette like this
        The berries will never taste as sweet
        There’ll never be a kiss like your kiss

        There’ll never be an autumn so vivid and warm
        So red so golden so crisp
        Never see a color in aubergine
        Never will there be a kiss like your kiss

        (guitar and instrumental)

        There’ll never be a winter quite so true
        When the sky is painted with gifts
        And there’ll never be a moon so full and blue
        There’ll never be a kiss like your kiss

        Hmmm…. Hmmm… (cello)

        There’ll never be a kiss like your kiss.

        • What is the guitar song playing while Tara and Sookie are laying out in the sun in the episode “Night on the Sun”??

      • The whole song foreshadows the ‘last kiss’ or something like that between B/S. I mean their love is suppose to be epic! Bill is described as the tragic hero. So all this ‘never’ ‘never’ never’ sounds like something bittersweet that is ending.

      • Wow, beautiful lyrics! I have no idea who they’re about.

        No, I do not own the soundtrack–yet–but I did listen to the entire album, streamed at EW–
        http://music-mix.ew.com/2010/05/20/true-blood-volume-2-soundtrack-stream/

        Unfortunately, the stream has now been removed.

      • Personally I’d never have bought it, but I got it free that night at the Ultimate Fan Experience.

        To me “Kiss Like Your Kiss” would have been more appropriate for season 1 or 2 B/S, not now where their ‘love’, gag me, blaaagh, is starting to crumble. I have to think its for Jason and Crystal.

        After listening to “Fresh Blood” all last night, I think it could either be an Alcide or Eric/Sookie song, it def. suggests to me a rebound song, but whats intriguing FB also uses autumn imagery.. if it weren’t for the howling in FB I’d give it to E/S.
        Do you want the lyrics to that Sunny? Do you want the lyrics to ‘You Did/Bomp Shooby Dooby Bomp’ too? That way you can see how funny my joke is.. lol.

      • Lol Serena. I totally want any lyrics you want to give me. :D

      • You can go to a site like isohunt and dl the albums. I saw them up there when i was searching for ep 1. Also the lj page that live streams the episodes also has both season 1 and 2 for dl :)

  13. “Fresh Blood” by Eels

    Sun down on the sorry day
    By nightlights the children pray
    I know you´re prob´ly gettin´ ready for bed
    Beautiful woman get out of my head

    I´m so tired of the same old crud
    Sweet baby I need fresh blood

    Whoo!
    Howl

    The moon shines on the autumn sky
    Growin´ cold the leaves all die
    I´m more alone than I´ve ever been
    Help me out of the shape I´m in

    After the fires before the flood
    My sweet baby I need fresh blood

    Whoo!
    Howl

    Whatever trepidation you may feel
    In your heart you know it´s not real
    In a moment of clarity
    Some little act of charity

    You gotta pull me out of this mud
    Sweet baby I need fresh blood

    Whoo!
    Howl

    Whoo!
    Howl

  15. Lovely, thanks!

    I always laugh when I hear “You Did/Bomp Shooby Dooby Bomp” :D

  16. thank you for posting all the lyrics Serena

  17. Ok so the song beautifully broken, which one did they use in the episode?

  18. I’m thinking that last episodes song ‘It hurts me too’ , was in Erics POV. What do you think?

  19. I’m thinking that ’9 crimes’ is about Bill and Sookie, first half of the song is about Bill and second half Sookie’s.

    Sookie: It’s the wrong kind of place to be thinking of you
    It’s the wrong time for somebody new
    It’s a small crime and I got no excuse

    Bill:It’s the wrong kind of place to be cheating on you
    It’s the wrong time she’s pulling me through
    It’s a small crime and I got no excuse

    But after Eric’s dream, and seeing the look on his face, I thought of this: ‘It’s the wrong kind of place to be thinking of you. It’s a small crime and I’ve got no excuse.’
    But mostly I think it’s about B/S.

    • First half about Sookie and second half about Bill

    • unfortunately I got to agree with you for the most part Freyja.

      The only quirk with that theory is that
      why would sookie say, it’s the wrong kind of place to be thinking of you?
      Because Bill broke up with her like that and she shouldn’t be thinking of him?

      • I was thinking that she’s thinking of another :)
        But it could be about Bill and Eric of course. It was a big part in the show that he’s thinking of Sookie and it’s the wrong time to be thinking of her, and he clearly was conflicted that he was day/nightdreaming of her.

  20. Any thoughts on the song for “trouble” sunny?

  21. Florence and the machine – Howl

    If you could only see the beast you’ve made of me
    I held it in but now it seems you’ve set it running free
    Screaming in the dark, I howl when we’re apart
    Drag my teeth across your chest to taste your beating heart

    My fingers claw your skin, try to tempt my way in
    You are the moon that makes the night for which I have to howl
    My fingers claw your skin, try to tempt my way in
    You are the moon that breaks the night for which I have to

    Howl, howl
    Howl, howl

    Now there’s no rolling back, I’m aching to attack
    My blood is singing with your voice, I want to pour it out
    The saints can’t help me now, the ropes have been unbound
    I hunt for you with bloodied feet across the hallowed ground

    Like some child possessed, the beast howls in my veins
    I want to find you and tear out all of your tenderness

    And howl, howl
    Howl, howl

    Be careful of the curse that falls on young lovers
    Starts so soft and sweet and turns them into hunters
    Hunters, hunters, hunters
    Hunters, hunters, hunters

    The fabric of your flesh, pure as a wedding dress
    Until I wrap myself inside your arms I cannot rest
    The saints can’t help me now, the ropes have been unbound
    I hunt for you with bloodied feet across the hallowed ground

    And howl

    Be careful of the curse that falls on young lovers
    Starts so soft and sweet and turns them into hunters

    A man who’s pure of heart and says his prayers by night
    May still become a wolf when the autumn moon is bright

    If you could only see the beast you’ve made of me
    I held it in but now it seems you’ve set it running free
    The saints can’t help me now, the ropes have been unbound
    I hunt for you with bloodied feet across the hallowed ground

    Does anyone know who sings the song “I’m Evil, Don’t Mess Around With Me” and “Big Bad Handsome Man”.? These songs are always played on the True Blood Trailers.

    I really love these songs but have no idea who sings them….

    Please Help!!!!

    • Did you ever get an answer to that? I know the “I’m evil baby, don’t you mess around with me” lyrics are really the Elvis song “Trouble” but this sounds like a cover… I don’t know which artist does the cover though, that’s the mystery!

  23. Anyone have any thought on the “hitting the ground” song?

  24. I think someone’s linked it to a PJ Harvey song

  25. The “Fresh Blood” song by Eel is perfect for Eric POV and what is about to go down in episode 11 this Sunday. Ugh, can’t wait!

    • This is a perfect song for him! The lyrics just scream ERIC.
      This:
      Whatever trepidation you may feel
      In your heart you know it´s not real
      In a moment of clarity
      Some little act of charity

    • I agree artermis. I hope this is the song they use but they have surprised us a couple of times this season and used songs that did not have the same title as the ep.

  26. Does anyone know the name of the track that was playing in s3 ep11″ fresh blood” in the scene with Lafayette and Jesus

  27. Thanks Sunnynala appreciate that!

  28. Do you happen to have, or have a link to, an mp3 file of Stephen Moyer singing “Hard-Hearted Hannah” while playing the piano from the Lorena flashbacks? I just loved the song already, but I really wanted the track of him singing it too.

  29. was there any music in 4.03…I can’t find a listing anywhere.

    • Hey gal, you’re in the season 3 section! LOL! I’ve got the song up that played after Sookie left Eric in the hidey hole–If you love me why am I dying–but Season of the Witch played over the end credits. I think it was the Joan Jett cover but I’m not sure.
