Veronica Mars ReviewI've always loved a good soundtrack. Most of the time, soundtracks are pretty crappy-just a hastily thrown together collection of some random songs that happened to appear in a movie or on a TV show. However, sometimes a film or show has a soundtrack that is just as important as the work itself. What would "Top Gun" be without "Danger Zone" and "Take My Breath Away?" What would "Pretty in Pink" be without the title song? The soundtrack to "Almost Famous" is one of my favorite albums, simply because it doesn't feel like a soundtrack--it feels like an expertly crafted mixtape. That is exactly the feeling I get when I listen to the soundtrack to "Veronica Mars."
I have loved this show since it first premiered in 2004 and I will watch it faithfully until it goes off the air (which will hopefully not be soon). Unlike many shows geared towards teens, "Veronica Mars" actually has a brain and a heart. And also unlike other teen shows, it doesn't use music as a marketing tool. Horrible shows like "The OC" and "One Tree Hill" essentially pack their episodes full of anemic "indie" music and then try to sell it to you. It isn't about creating a mood. Its about making money. "VM" is completely the opposite of this. This is clearly a show made by people who love music and don't flaunt it every chance they get. Key moments are often met with perfect soundtrack choices that enhance the mood, tell a story and make sense for the show. Fourteen of these songs are included on this amazing soundtrack.
SONG: "We Used to Be Friends" by the Dandy Warhols
WHEN IT APPEARED: This is the show's theme song. It appears before every episode, though they have rearranged it to a moodier, darker piece for the show's third season.
MY OPINION: A great, bouncy rock song that perfectly tells the story of this show. It will have you dancing and singing along in no time.
SONG: "I Hear the Bells" by Mike Daughty
WHEN IT APPEARED: Episode 2.20 "Look Who's Stalking" (Logan and Veronica talk at the alterna-prom)
MY OPINION: A gorgeous, moody song that went perfectly with an excellent scene. The lyrics are especially interesting in this one.
SONG: "I Know I Know I Know" by Tegan and Sara
WHEN IT APPEARED: Episode 2.16 "The Rapes of Graff" (Logan and Hannah get physical)
MY OPINION: Catchy, girly, sexy and unique.
SONG: "I Turn My Camera On" by Spoon
WHEN IT APPEARED: Episode 2.03 "Cheatty Cheatty Bang Bang" (Veronica spies on Kendall)
MY OPINION: A great, funky song with a pounding beat that gets under your skin.
SONG: "No Sleep Tonight" by the Faders
WHEN IT APPEARED: Episode 2.05 "Blast from the Past" (Homecoming band)
MY OPINION: Great rock song that always makes me stomp along and cut loose.
SONG: "Dakota" by Stereophonics
WHEN IT APPEARED: Episode 2.08 "Ahoy, Mateys!" (Logan pulls a gun on the Fitzpatricks at River Stix)
MY OPINION: One of my favorites on the soundtrack. Really catchy, gravelly and sexy.
SONG: "Sway" by the Perishers
WHEN IT APPEARED: Episode 2.17 "Plan B" (Veronica and Logan dance at Sadie's)
MY OPINION: A gorgeous, aching love song. Beautiful.
SONG: "Long Time Coming" by the Delays
WHEN IT APPEARED: Episode 2.01 "Normal is the Watchword" (Duncan keeps visiting Veronica and leaves her the fortune cookie)
MY OPINION: Really great, sort of fun and an awesome melody.

SONG: "Ocean City Girl" by Ivy
WHEN IT APPEARED: Episode 2.08 "Ahoy, Mateys!"(Duncan's dream about Meg and finally reading her letter)
MY OPINION: Very pretty and haunting, with a relaxed, romantic feel.
SONG: "Momentary Thing" by Something Happening
WHEN IT APPEARED: Episode 1.18 "Weapons of Class Destruction" (Logan and Veronica kiss for the first time)
MY OPINION: Great song, perfect for the moment and perfectly explains the rush of new love
SONG: "The Way You Are" by 46bliss
WHEN IT APPEARED: Episode 1.11 "Silence of the Lamb" (Mac's real mother comes to see her with her adopted family; Clarence Wiedman gets the photos from Veronica)
MY OPINION: Incredibly haunting and thoughtful. Gorgeous song.
SONG: "Lost & Found" by Adrienne Pierce
WHEN IT APPEARED: Episode 2.21 "Happy Go Lucky" (Wallace and Veronica share a moment at the end of high school)
MY OPINION: A cute, catchy song that makes me smile.
SONG: "Lily Dreams On" by Cotton Mather
WHEN IT APPEARED: Episode 1.22 "Leave It to Beaver" (Veronica dreams of Lilly and finds peace)
MY OPINION: PERFECT dreamy song for Veronica to say goodbye to Lilly. Great way to end a season and a soundtrack.
In summary, this is an amazing soundtrack that feels cohesive and fits the mood of the show. Perfect. But it.
