Apple TV+ is back with the second season of Your Friends & Neighbors, and honestly, Jon Hamm as Andrew 'Coop' Cooper is just as magnetic as ever. While the thriller aspect keeps us on the edge of our seats, it's the music that really sets the mood in Westmont Village. From the start of the first episode, the soundtrack hits hard with some absolute classics like 'Burning Down the House' by Talking Heads and the hauntingly perfect 'In the Air Tonight' by Phil Collins. It’s that mix of suburban tension and high-stakes drama that makes the song choices feel so deliberate and cool.
This season introduces a new layer of chaos with James Marsden joining the cast as the charming but suspicious Owen Ashe. There’s a standout scene by the pool in the premiere where Owen makes his presence known, backed by the energetic 'Essential Workers Anthem' by Marc Rebillet and Lindsey Stirling’s 'Surrender'. It’s exactly the kind of clever music supervision we’ve come to expect from the series, blending modern electronic vibes with the show’s unique brand of dark comedy and suspense.
As we move into the second episode, 'Lady Bits', the vibe shifts a bit towards indie rock and alt-pop. We hear some great tracks like 'The Rat' by The Walkmen and the raw energy of Lola Young’s 'Messy' during the car scenes. Even the main title theme, 'The Joneses' by Hamilton Leithauser and Dominic Lewis, does a fantastic job of establishing that 'something is not quite right here' atmosphere. It's not just background noise; the music really highlights the fracturing relationships and the growing isolation of characters like Sam.
