The music of CM.

[severynx.livejournal.com]

I've always thought the snippets of music played throughout the show were interesting choices. Sometimes they fit the unsub. Sometimes they fit the victim. And sometimes they fit the team, or some other part of the show. We've heard everything from Aretha Franklin to Nine Inch Nails, and Enya to the Rolling Stones.

What I'm wondering is:

Have you ever listened to a song and thought: "hey, that would be perfect for the show!"...?

If so, what song? 

Why do you think it would fit the show?

And in what way would the song be used?


*Bonus:
Taking this one step further, if each member of the team had a theme song (including former members), what would their song be and why?

Also, as a side note, "Pet" would especially be good for an unsub with Dissociative Identity Disorder (multiple personalities). I can also imagine one of an unsub who is aware they have DID and doesn't want to kill, but one of their alternate personalities does, to "Woke From Dreaming" by the Delgados.

Oh yeah, "Little Death" by +44 would make a good song in general for the team, I can especially see it being a Reid!song for some reason.

edit: Although listening to it again, I could see it being a GREAT song for Hotch about Foyet and Haley.

I agree that Pet would definitely be awesome.

"Thomas" might also work from a victim or victim's family point of view, particularly the part that's like "show me the way to forgive you, allow me to let it go..."...

As for the rest, I'll have to think a bit on my own list to contribute :)
