I've been trying to figure out the Rod Stewart song in the Sopranos when Tony B shoots Joey Peeps as he gets in his car with some whoo-aaah. He sings something about "Mother, what do you think of me now," or something like that. The beat breaks down right when Tony B taps on the window of the car. Its this scene (though through some cosmic irony, there's no sound - damn it): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jMgmsL_xFX8Anyone? Any idears?

    Sounds like you're talking about "Bad N Ruin" off the Long Player LP. That's my shit, and the break is nasty too.

    that's another one!

    there is an episode where there is a card game scene that has a real funky soul song playing in the background. been trying to figure out that one too, but they don't put those songs in the end credits!

    That's John Cooper Clarke "Chickentown"

    And yeah, the Sopranos dudes set a high f*cking bar for music.

    after that ep, i looked on the website to find out the song. it's called evidentially chicken town by john cooper clarke.

    The best, IMO, is this use of Tindersticks to end Blue Comet. BONKERS

    that schitt was classic. just conveyed the mood of the ep so perfectly.
