Have some Ella: "A classic song with lyrics about a woman who can't make her relationship work, whose life is filled with emptiness and regret and pain."

Does anyone know the titles of the French songs that were played during last week's episode? I really, really liked them.

Hello all -

I have a random Mix Cd of Gilmore Girls music. I collected a crapload of songs tagged as a song from GG, and one day burned it randomly without rhyme or reason for which songs I chose... and it came out beautifully and I've never stopped listening to it. However, I've since lost the track listing (and it's been ripped and re-burned so many times, it won't show up when I pop it in). I know I could probably figure them all out if I typed specific lyrics into google.

HOWEVER... one I can't find is: Who does the cover of "Someone to Watch Over Me"? I'm not sure which episode it was on... but it's a woman, very beautiful voice.

I can upload it if it will help jog your memory. Hell, I could upload the whole album if you guys want a specialized GG mix. :)

Any help is very much appreciated! Thanks lovelies.

Okay, so one of the reasons I love Gilmore Girls is all the music references. Isn't it fun to watch a show where someone raves about the acoustic version of Everlong?:) So what are your favorite music references/jokes? I'll start with a few of mine.

Brian (about The Strokes): Man, they are overexposed even on walls.

Lane (to Kyon): When did you start double dressing? And Avril Lavigne?!
Kyon: Avril Lavigne rocks! You are such a snob! If it's not Joy Division, you don't like it! Well, you can't dance to Joy Division!

Zach: Shut up, shut up, shut up. Weezer did not go to Harvard!
Brian: Not the whole band, just the lead -

Lane (when asked about something she thinks impossible): How's that Pixies reunion coming along?

Hi, I'm new at this community and I just had a question. Does anyone have the song "Reflecting Light" by Sam Phillips. It was played at Liz's wedding when Luke/Lorelai are dancing in Season 4. If anyone has that song and would be willing to share, I would be eternally grateful.

hi. just joined. i think this community is a great idea. i love the music from gilmore girls and up till now i rely only on the list in the wb website. so yeah lookin forward to this.

I find myself more akin to the musical tastes of Christopher than the Gilmore girls, i.e., Metallica, Offspring, Dave Matthews and Hootie and the Blowfish (it hurt when Lorelai burned them in that episode!) I also like Maury's blues. And Grandaddy, which was impressively plugged by Lane at some point.

First post.  I win.

Why the community?  Well, in my opinion, Gilmore Girls has great music.  It also makes reference to a lot of music.  It's very hard to keep track of.  So here you can ask "What song played during..." or you could answer "The song that played during....was...." or you could even upload a song for us all to hear.  You could also make recommendations, provide artist information for artists seen/heard on the show.  Whatever.

Everything is being worked on, ironed out, cleaned up, and every other action that can be followed up with a preposition.

I'll post rules on the community info page.  I don't think there will be many rules.  I can't think that we'd actually have to enforce much of anything.  But people like rules.  If you don't have rules, people ask, "Where are the rules?"  And then you have to explain that there are no rules, and then there's chaos.  And when there's chaos, that's when we need to have rules.  You see?

Anyone with ideas/suggestions, please post in the comments or start a new post....Help me get this thing off the ground.  I would especially love it if some kind soul could work up a lovely layout for the community.  We could do it up properly, have some kind of vote on all the submissions...The winner can be a moderator!  Great prize, no?

OK, onto the Gilmore music related things!  Suggest/post/create away!  Enjoy, and tell your friends to join.  Even if they don't know/like the show, hopefully we can introduce some people to some new music.
