Soundtracks in Netflix’s Wednesday aren’t just background noises, but they help shape major scenes, carrying on the morbid, mischievous, and stylishly gothic tale ahead. So while we cannot wait to hear what songs the second season of the show will have, here is a comprehensive list of every original track and every licensed song featured in Season 1 of the Netflix show, from classical pieces to modern pop and rock.

Wednesday, created by Alfred Gough and Miles Millar and produced under the direction of Tim Burton, is a stylish supernatural mystery series starring Jenna Ortega as the darkly brilliant Wednesday Addams. With Catherine Zeta-Jones as Morticia, Luis Guzmán as Gomez, Gwendoline Christie as Larissa Weems, and Fred Armisen as Uncle Fester, the show follows Ortega’s character as she navigates psychic visions, high school politics, and monster hunts at Nevermore Academy.

The first season of the series contains several...

Jack Antonoff and Bleachers brought out the guests Friday during their set at the Newport Folk Festival, welcoming the likes of Hayley Williams, Jeff Tweedy, Weyes Blood and more to the stage during what was billed as “The Ally Coalition Talent Show.”

Waxahatchee, Rufus Wainwright, and Dan Reeder also took part on the convivial affair where to singers cycled to and from the microphone to help Bleachers and friends cover artists like Ella Fitzgerald (“Dream a Little Dream of Me”), Roy Orbison (“You Got It”), and Newport legend Bob Dylan...

Jack Antonoff brought his Ally Coalition Talent Show from New York City to Newport Folk Festival on Friday, essentially splitting his headlining set between a Bleachers gig and a guest-heavy superjam. The big “surprise” of the evening was when Paramore’s Hayley Williams came out to give a live debut to her new track “Mirtazapine.”

Previously released only on Nashville Public Radio, this was likely the first time many had even heard the song. For as cut with a ’90s jagged edge as “Mirtazapine” is, it didn’t feel overly anatopic at Newport Folk; perhaps it’s because William’s vocals weren’t as washed in delay, or because Antonoff’s acoustic guitar was more forward. Besides which, at the modern Newport Folk Festival, a little screaming and head-banging isn’t as unfamiliar as it once was.

Williams stayed on to duet with Antonoff on Modern English’s classic “Melt with You,...

David Lynch’s Twin Peaks and Twin Peaks: The Return are now showing on Mubi in many countries.Lost Highway.To celebrate the life and work of David Lynch (1946–2025), we invited a number of his collaborators to contribute a remembrance, a photograph, or a piece of ephemera from the time they shared with the director. Like the shrine that spontaneously took shape outside of Bob’s Big Boy diner in Burbank in the days following his death in January, or the outpouring of appreciation online and everywhere, we hope that this tribute can stand as a modest testament to Lynch’s enduring spirit and its influence on our cinema and our lives.With contributions fromDean HurleyBarry GiffordRebekah Del RioPeter DemingJoan ChenSabrina SutherlandPhilip NeelZola JesusDean Hurley(sound mixer, Twin Peaks: The Return; sound supervisor, Twin Peaks: The Missing Pieces and Inland Empire) David Lynch’s woodshop.

I first encountered Rebekah Del Rio as millions of others did — at the movies. I was away from Los Angeles, visiting my parents in Indiana, when a friend and I went to see director David Lynch’s “Mulholland Drive” at Movies 6, a second-run house in nearby Mishawaka, where tickets cost a buck. With the exception of loving “The Straight Story,” I hadn’t been a David Lynch aficionado at all, having seen “The Lost Highway” in film school and stupidly dismissing it as an over-symbolic kooky piece of hoohah. (Boy was I wrong.)

I sat in that creaky seat, watching a dim projection on a tattered screen, and was instantly transported to another world — or should I say, back home to L.A. Beyond Naomi Watts and Laura Harring’s wonderful wig-swapping weirdness, what truly pulled me in was the scene where their two characters attend a late night performance...

Rebekah Del Rio, the singer in the iconic Club Silencio scene in David Lynch’s Mulholland Drive, has died. She was 57.

Del Rio died at her home on June 23, the Los Angeles Coroner’s Office confirmed. No cause of death has been confirmed.

She was born on July 10, 1967, in Chula Vista, California, where she began her career as a singer-songwriter. After rising to prominence in the San Diego scene, Del Rio moved to Los Angeles in 1989.

She first crossed paths with Lynch thanks to music agent Brian Loucks. After introducing the two, Del Rio performed for him and he subsequently invited her to take part in a scene for Mulholland Drive.

The song she sang during their meeting, a rendition of “Llorando,” which was a Spanish-language cover of Roy Orbison’s “Crying,” influenced the Club Silencio segment of the film. There, Del Rio emotionally sang the track and her character...

Rebekah Del Rio, the American singer who memorably performed “Llorando” (a Spanish language version of Roy Orbison’s “Crying”) in David Lynch’s masterpiece “Mulholland Drive,” has died at the age of 57. According to the Los Angeles Coroner’s Office, Del Rio died June 23 at her home in L.A. A cause of death has not yet been revealed.

Born in 1967 in Chula Vista, California, she moved first to L.A. in 1989 and then to Nashville in 1994, where she signed to Irving Azoff’s label Giant Records. Over the years, she had also been signed to DreamWorks Nashville and indie label Baja Basement Records. Her work appeared on the soundtracks to films like “Sin City” and Tony Scott’s version of “Man on Fire.”

She also appeared in Richard Kelly’s gonzo cult favorite “Southland Tales,” where she provides vocals for a version of “The Star-Spangled Banner” in a sequence...

The singer-songwriter Rebekah Del Rio, who achieved cinematic immortality in David Lynch’s Mulholland Drive, has died at the age of 57 in Los Angeles.

The performer, whose albums include 1994’s Nobody’s Angel and 2011’s Love Hurts Love Heals, first met Lynch in the 1990s. Her performance of “Llorando” in Lynch’s 2001 surreal fantasy came about after the iconic director heard her privately perform the Spanish-language cover of Roy Orbison’s “Crying,” leading to a scene Lynch conceived during Mulholland Drive’s transition from failed ABC TV pilot to Oscar-nominated film. (Watch it below.)

Following Del Rio’s appearance in Mulholland Drive, director Richard Kelly enlisted her to perform “The Star-Spangled Banner” as “Vanessa Vera Cruz” in his wild 2006 opus Southland Tales. She additionally played the role of Pinky in the 2016 sci-fi film 2307: Winter’s Dream, could be heard performing in 2005’s Sin City, and composed music for the 2010 film Before We Say Goodbye,...

Rebekah Del Rio, the singer-songwriter whose performance of a Spanish-language cover of Roy Orbison’s “Crying” made for an indelible scene in David Lynch‘s 2001 film Mulholland Drive, died June 23 at her home in Los Angeles. She was 57.

Her death was confirmed by her nephew Dan Coronado in a Facebook post. A cause of death has not been disclosed.

“We really were blessed to have a beautiful day with her 2 Sundays ago and I’m so grateful my kids will remember how special it was to hear her God-given talent,” Coronado wrote.

Born July 10, 1967, in Chula Vista, CA, Del Rio began performing to critical acclaim in San Diego before moving to Los Angeles in 1989. Her recording of “Llorando,” the title given to her Orbison cover, was brought to Lynch’s attention by their mutual agent, and the director arranged a meeting where Del Rio performed the song for him.

Rebekah Del Rio, the singer who delivered a powerful, Spanish-language rendition of a Roy Orbison classic in a pivotal scene in David Lynch’s Mulholland Drive, has died at the age of 57.

The Los Angeles Coroner’s Office confirmed Del Rio’s death to Variety, noting she died June 23 at her home in Los Angeles. A cause of death was not provided.

Rebekah Del Rio, a singer-songwriter who achieved cinematic legend with her performance of “Llorando” in David Lynch’s 2001 opus “Mulholland Drive,” died June 23 at her residence in Los Angeles. She was 57 years old.

Del Rio’s death was confirmed through the Los Angeles Coroner’s Office. No further details about her death are currently available.

Lynch was first introduced to Del Rio by their mutual CAA agent Brian Loucks in the mid-’90s. The singer was working under a country record deal in Nashville, Tenn., which she had landed off of her recording of “Llorando,” a Spanish-language cover of Roy Orbison’s “Crying.” Upon their meeting, Lynch asked Del Rio to perform the number and covertly recorded her. The performance became the basis for the Club Silencio scene, an addition by Lynch to his by-then-rejected ABC pilot “Mulholland Drive,” which he was reworking into a feature film.

Last I saw Willie Nelson, on the Outlaw Music Festival tour, he gave well-earned solo space to son Lukas Nelson, who just released his first solo album. It’s high time. Dude’s a lifelong utility player — rock solid on guitar and vocals with the family band, while Willie circles the beat, and a team player with frequent Neil Young backing crew Promise of the Real. He’s become a go-to duet partner, notably with fellow next-gen icon Sierra Ferrell. Ferrell’s cameo on ­Nelson’s new American Romance is “Friend in the End,...

Jeremy Allen White is fresh off his Emmy-winning run in The Bear, and now he is set to portray one of music’s most legendary icons, Bruce Springsteen, in Springsteen: Deliver Me From Nowhere. The biographical drama will chronicle the making of Nebraska, a haunting 1982 album by the rock star.

The feature is directed by Scott Cooper and is based on Warren Zanes’ acclaimed book, but what makes the project even more intriguing is the famous lore in the rock ‘n’ roll world about Bob Dylan parodying Springsteen. So, let’s break down this story and touch upon whether or not the two musicians should appear together in this upcoming movie.

Forty-one years ago, Ralph Macchio landed the role of a bullied high school student who learns karate from his apartment building’s handyman in The Karate Kid. Few people involved with the movie thought they were creating a mega-blockbuster, but it wound up grossing an astounding $130.8 million on a mere $8 million budget. It was followed by two sequels starring Macchio, and a fourth film where Hilary Swank became The Next Karate Kid.

In 2018, Karate Kid superfans Josh Heald, Jon Hurwitz, Hayden Schlossberg convinced Macchio to put the gi back on...

Monument Records, the country label whose artists include Walker Hayes, Brandon Ratliff and Tigirlily Gold, is folding, Sony Music confirmed to The Hollywood Reporter.

Tigirlily Gold is moving over to Sony Music Nashville, though the status of the rest of Monument’s roster hasn’t been clarified yet. Most of the staff is departing, and the remaining active aspects of Monument’s business will be overseen by Sony Music Nashville, Sony said.

Veteran country music executive and talent manager Jason Owen had revived Monument eight years ago alongside producer Shane McAnally, The Tennessean reported at the time. As The Hollywood Reporter first reported on Sunday, Owen — who also who manages Kacey Musgraves and Kelsea Ballerini through his company Sandbox — is now taking on Billie Eilish and Finneas as their manager as well. Through Sandbox, Owen will continue to work with Sony Music, the company said.

Anyone who’s seen John Carpenter’s 1996 sequel “Escape From L.A.” knows that, in the past, the filmmaker’s feelings about the City of Angels have been mixed, to put it mildly. They’re epitomized by a scene in which Snake Plissken (Kurt Russell) is enjoying a brief moment of relative peace in the earthquake-ravaged ruins of the city, after almost having his body parted out by the Surgeon General of Beverly Hills (Bruce Campbell), when his running mate of the moment (Valeria Golino) looks at him and observes, “Once you figure out this place, it’s really not so bad.” She is immediately shot in the back..

While Carpenter has occasionally been metaphorically wounded by the slings, arrows and bullets of the city’s entertainment-industrial complex, he’s managed to survive. And in the lead-up to receiving his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame on April 3, he’s...

My Morning Jacket have occasionally been tagged a jam band, albeit one that exists on the less slapstick-y end of the jam spectrum. But they’ve also often been at their best when compacting their rangily spiritualist 21st century Southern rock into digestible studio servings. That is definitely the case with their tenth album, Is, which signifies its inentions with a title that’s at once philosophical and down-to-earth. The usually self-produced band changed things up by bringing a big-name outside producer — mega-reliable rock record-maker Brendan O’Brien, known for his work with Pearl Jam,...

After performing under the alter-ego of for years now, John C. Reilly has officially unveiled his debut single as Mister Romantic. To kick off this chapter ahead of the release of a full album, he’s shared a cover of the Johnny Mercer classic, “Dream.” Stream it below.

Originally released in 1944, “Dream” has been covered by the likes of Frank Sinatra, The Pied Pipers, and Roy Orbison. The song precedes an album of Great American Songbook favorites titled What’s Not To Love? For the project, due on June 13th, he’s recruited a number of musical colleagues to round out the LP, including award-winning producer and instrumentalist David Garza.

“I looked at our weary world a few years ago and tried to think of a way I could spread love and empathy,” Reilly said of the ongoing project. “I decided the most fun way to do that was through...

In case you didn’t know: John C. Reilly is a vaudeville guy. Not only did the beloved character actor star as half of the legendary comedy duo Laurel and Hardy in the emotionally affecting biographical film Stan & Ollie (2018), but since then he’s created a throwback stage persona of his own, the lovelorn and musically inclined Mister Romantic, who has sold out concerts across Los Angeles since 2022.

Now, Reilly is set to introduce Mister Romantic to the rest of the world with a full-fledged album that arrives on June 13. His charming debut,...

Over 40 years after bringing fans along for the ride in Tom Petty: Heartbreakers Beach Party, Cameron Crowe has unearthed long-lost footage of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers.

The result is the filmmaker’s remastered documentary, Tom Petty: Heartbreakers Beach Party, now streaming on Paramount+. It features never-before-seen 16mm footage shot during the rock-and-roll band’s Long After Dark era from 1982 to 1983. Per the logline, the music documentary “is a fun, candid, fast-paced, and musically rich ride with America’s greatest rock ‘n’ roll band, a time capsule of the dawn of the MTV era, and a rare and shining glimpse into Tom Petty’s lasting creative genius.”

Adam Scott is reflecting on a time he seriously bombed on TV — but luckily for the Severance actor, it didn’t air.

On Monday’s episode of Conan O’Brien’s podcast, Conan O’Brien Needs A Friend, Scott was a guest and opened up about the time when he visited O’Brien’s show to promote Big Little Lies season two and explained a bit he loosely prepared — which included Scott comparing his fellow castmembers to an 80s supergroup — that turned out to be “one of the most deeply embarrassing moments” he’s had.

“The way I saw it going is like us talking and you being like, ‘Wow, Big Little [Lies] the cast is amazing. It’s all legendary actresses. It’s like the Traveling Wilburys of legendary actresses,'” Scott recalled. “So, what I had done is, I thought that saying the Traveling Wilburys of actresses and equating Big Little Lies...

The producer of the hit Bohemian Rhapsody movie is working on a Roy Orbison biopic, tentatively titled You Got It.

Another day, another Hollywood music biopic. Mere weeks after the release of Better Man, the Robbie Williams biopic in which Williams is presented as a CGI monkey, Variety reports that there’s not one but two projects about Roy Orbison in the works.

Orbison’s family has partnered up with Compelling Pictures for a feature film as well as a documentary about the singer’s life.

The film is tentatively titled You Got It, after one of Orbison’s hit songs, and the team behind the camera know a thing or two about making music biopics. The film is being produced by Denis O’Sullivan, who worked on Bohemian Rhapsody, and Jeff Kalligheri, who produced the Whitney Houston biopic I Wanna Dance With Somebody.

Orbison’s sons, Alex Orbison, Roy Orbison Jr,...

Roy Orbison, the five-time Grammy Award-winning singer, songwriter, and musician behind classic hits like “Oh, Pretty Woman” and “Only the Lonely” is the latest artist to have their life turned into a movie. Per Variety, Denis O’Sullivan, the producer behind the Oscar-winning Bohemian Rhapsody, the 2018 biopic on Queen frontman, Freddie Mercury, is set to produce the Orbison film.

Orbison was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1987, a year before he died of a heart attack at the age of 52 in December of 1988. The musician’s family is partnering with Compelling Pictures, an independent production and financing company, to develop both the biopic as well as a long-form documentary on Orbison’s life.

The theatrical feature is tentatively titled You Got It,after Orbison’s hit single from 1988 of the same name. The film reportedly will be “a romance more than a traditional biopic,” per the announcement,...

Roy Orbison’s family has teamed up with Compelling Pictures to create a feature film and documentary about the legendary musician’s life and career. Tentatively named You Got It, after one of his hits, the film will focus more on Roy’s relationship with his wife, Barbara, than on his whole life story. Barbara, who became his manager, played a crucial role in his comeback just before his sudden death in 1988.

The movie will highlight their romance, showing the ups and downs of their journey together. Barbara passed away in 2011. Roy Orbison’s sons, Alex, Wesley, and Roy Jr., will act as executive producers.

Orbison, known for hits like Oh, Pretty Woman and Only the Lonely, faced many hardships in his life, including the tragic deaths of his first wife and two sons. Despite these challenges, his music kept going. His career surged again in the 1980s, especially with...

The family of Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Roy Orbison — known for hits like “Oh, Pretty Woman,” “Crying,” “Only the Lonely” and “In Dreams” — has partnered with the independent production and financing company Compelling Pictures to develop both a theatrical feature film and long-form documentary based on singer-songwriter’s life and career.

Tentatively titled “You Got It,” after Orbison’s 1988 hit single, the film will be “a romance more than a traditional biopic,” according to the announcement, focusing on Orbison’s relationship with his wife Barbara, who became his manager and played a key role in his comeback, which took place in the years just before his death at the age of just 52 December of 1988. Barbara Orbison died in 2011.

As the world continues to mourn the recent passing of David Lynch, this past weekend, the legendary artist and filmmaker received a shout-out from an unlikely source: Saturday Night Live.

Despite the fact that Lynch never hosted SNL and was never a cast member (at least not on this plane of reality), before the closing goodnights of the Dave Chappelle-hosted episode, the show aired a still photo of Lynch, as they did with Dabney Coleman after the former host died last year.

But, originally, the plan was to air a more substantial tribute to the late director — that is, until the show started running behind schedule.

Instead of just sticking a Jpeg of Lynch into the end of the show, according to LateNighter, during the episode’s dress rehearsal, the brief memorial would have been prefaced with a vintage clip of Roy Orbison singing “In Dreams” on SNL back...

One of the all-time greats is gone. That thought went through my head this afternoon when word came down that David Lynch, the incredible mind behind Twin Peaks, Eraserhead, Blue Velvet, and so many more, was no longer with us. The news was a shock as, despite his fragile health, Lynch was still pretty active, teasing potential new projects and also receiving rave reviews for his acting turn as John Ford in Steven Spielberg’s The Fabelmans. Of course, with this news, it’s time to take a look back at the master’s work, and lucky for us, he leaves an incredible cinematic legacy behind. We all have our favorite David Lynch movies, but here are my top 5 picks:

Lost Highway (1997):

This was an important movie in my cinematic education. It came out in the late nineties, at a time when I was coming of age as a potential cinephile.

With a career that’s lasted over 60 years, Bob Dylan has had plenty of ups and downs and, after a period of creative struggles, managed to release one of his greatest albums more than three decades into it. While many new listeners will discover Dylan for the first time through Timothée Chalamet's excellent performance in the biopic A Complete Unknown, longtime fans know that there’s a lot more to the singer-songwriter than his hectic days in the 1960s. Even though Bob has had several artistic downturns, what’s impressive is that he has always found a way to renew himself creatively.

From Dylan’s country crooning on divisive albums like Nashville Skyline to the mixed response toward Self Portrait in the early 1970s, even this future Nobel Prize winner's heyday alienated some of his listeners. This willingness to experiment with his style and sound was also part of...

Released in November 1989, Jim Jarmusch’s Mystery Train is seen as the final installment in the deadpan, hard-luck trilogy he began with 1984’s Stranger Than Paradise and continued with 1986’s Down By Law. It’s a journey Jarmusch started with actor-musician John Lurie, who not only starred in Paradise and Law,...

As fans are well aware, a number of famous rock stars contributed to Monty Python projects — Led Zeppelin, Jethro Tull and Pink Floyd all helped to finance Monty Python and the Holy Grail, George Harrison mortgaged his home to pay for Life of Brian and, more recently, Mick Jagger introduced the troupe’s reunion show press conference while implicitly poking fun at his own career.

Despite this cozy relationship, few musicians took any direct artistic inspiration from the sketch comedians — although Jethro Tull’s Ian Anderson did name-check Monty Python while attempting to explain the album Thick as a Brick.

But in 1988, one of the biggest rock supergroups in music history, The Traveling Wilburys, included more than one shout-out to the Pythons in their debut album.

The group’s stacked lineup included George Harrison, Bob Dylan, Tom Petty, Electric Light Orchestra’s Jeff Lynne and the legendary Roy Orbison. According to Orbison’s son,...

The following contains major spoilers from NCIS: Origins Season 1, Episode 10, "Blue Bayou," which debuted Monday, Dec. 16 on CBS.

NCIS: Origins Season 1, Episode 10, "Blue Bayou" is the episode many other TV crime dramas wouldn't do. It really gets to the core of who Leroy Jethro Gibbs is and spells out his last steps to becoming an NCIS agent -- but it does so in a way that's unexpected and that other shows might think boring. But the CBS prequel deserves its flowers for bucking the genre patterns and pausing its first season on a high note.

"Blue Bayou" is named after the Roy Orbison song, as the Linda Ronstadt cover is a favorite of Gibbs' landlord, Ruth. The song takes on an important significance in Gibbs' own life after he forges the most unlikely friendship with Ruth. And what could have been a conventional pre-Christmas episode winds up saying so much more about not only Gibbs,...

Spoiler Alert! This story contains details from Monday’s midseason finale of NCIS: Origins on CBS.

Exclusive: Up until this week, fans of the NCIS franchise were led to believe that it was Mike Franks who had the biggest impact on Gibbs landing a job with the military police. And for the most part, it’s still true — except we now know that his rough-around-the-edges boss doesn’t deserve all the credit.

Fascinated by how “unexpected people come in and out of our lives who are sometimes being the most influential,” Showrunners David J. North and Gina Monreal decided to craft a story that involved Gibbs finding inspiration from the unlikeliest of people — his ill-tempered landlord. Titled “Blue Bayou” after Linda Ronstadt’s 1977 cover of the Roy Orbison classic, Gibbs (Austin Stowell) forms a...

After months of belting through the blinds, battles, knockouts, and live shows, The Voice declared its Season 26 winner on Tuesday night, and Sofronio Vasquez couldn’t be more delighted that it was him who America voted in for the win. The pop-r&b singer was a four-chair-turner for his cover of Rose Royce’s “I’m Goin’ Down,” and his domination only continued from there. In the battles, he beat Aliyah Khaylyn on their duet of Jennifer Rush’s “The Power of Love.” In the knockouts, he won with his performance of “You Don’t Have to Say You Love Me.” Then, in the playoffs, he advanced thanks to his performances of Roy Orbison’s “Crying,” Elvis Presley’s “If I Can Dream,” and the Police’s “Every Breath You Take.” He capped off the season with performances of “Unstoppable,” “A Million Dreams,” and “Who’s Lovin’ You.” He also...

Tonight on “The Voice,” the Playoffs concluded with performances from Team Michael Buble with special guest advisor country artist Carly Pearce. In this round of the competition, each coach must narrow down their team of five to only two artists that they’ll take to the live shows beginning Dec. 2. Rapper Mgk advised Gwen Stefani in “The Playoffs Premiere” on Nov. 19 while Olympian Simone Biles helped out Snoop Dogg and country artist Lainey Wilson assisted Reba McEntire in “The Playoffs Part 2” on Nov. 25.

In rehearsals, Michael thought Shye‘s song choice of “Story of My Life” by One Direction was a great pick because it’s “unexpected.” Carly explained that she can create “magic” with that song by “leaning in” to the way her vocal storytelling makes it seem like she’s “lived so much life.” Carly thought that her voice is “one in a million” and she doesn’t...

Coaches on The Voice love to say how hard it is to make decisions during the Playoffs. Well, they should try being us sometime, ’cause it’s damn near impossible to sit still and watch as they reveal picks that break hearts you’d think would be immune to it all after 26 seasons! What was Michael Bublé’s grievous error? Read on, and like it or not, we’ll discuss.

Shye, “Story of My Life” — Grade: B | Not sure One Direction’s hit was really the ideal choice to showcase Shye’s talent. She’s likable as heck, and she has a gorgeous,...

Spoiler alert: The following article contains spoilers from Hot Frosty.

Netflix's Hot Frosty joins the group of Christmas movies coming to the streaming service in 2024, and, unsurprisingly, its soundtrack is full of holiday tunes (and a couple of recognizable non-holiday songs). The fantasy romantic comedy film, directed by Jerry Ciccoritti and written by Russell Hainline, chronicles the story of a snowman who comes to life and falls in love. Perhaps Hot Frosty is a typical, cheesy, feel-good Christmas movie, but its soundtrack should appease any audience.

The cast of Hot Frosty includes Lacey Chabert as Kathy and Dustin Milligan as Jack. Kathy, who lost her husband two years prior to the events of the film, owns a restaurant in the small town of Hope Springs. Although she has a great support system, Kathy routinely fails to take care of herself (and her house). However, that all changes when Kathy...

A pair of Eighties music giants have joined forces as Bauhaus’ Peter Murphy and Culture Club’s Boy George have shared their new collaboration “Let the Flowers Grow.”

Killing Joke’s Youth also provides guitar and production on the sweeping single, which features the two distinct vocalists singing alongside each other. In a statement to Rolling Stone, Murphy talked about his decades-long connection to George and their long desire to collaborate together.

“I first met Boy George when he asked to be allowed backstage to meet Howard Devoto when Bauhaus were supporting Magazine,...

Prime Video's Brothers is accompanied by a unique soundtrack that perfectly matches its own quirky story. The film, directed by Max Barbakow (Palm Springs) and starring Peter Dinklage (Game of Thrones), Josh Brolin (Avengers), Glenn Close (Dangerous Liaisons), and more, is a buddy road trip and heist crime comedy all in one. Naturally, this would require an equally interesting mix of songs to set the moodfrom artists like Jane's Addiction and Poison to Hal Leonard Jazz Band and Seor Soul. The various songs of the Brothers soundtrack brought the outrageous comedy easily to life.

Brothers follows a pair of twin brothers who have been partners in crimes since they were children. However, as adults, one was sent to prison while the other did all he could to get a clean start. Everything falls apart for the latter brother, Moke, when the former, Jady, gets out of prison under the terms...

At New York’s City Winery two years ago, both sides of the late J.D. Souther were on display. In a tidy dressing room backstage, Souther, looking like a dapper Old West ranch owner in his tailored suit and white hair and whiskers, was regaling a few visitors with stories. Among them were several women who were longtime fans of the songs he wrote with, or for, the Eagles and Linda Ronstadt — and of the charismatic Souther himself. It wasn’t hard to see why: Adhering to his legend, Souther remained,...

Jd Souther, a Songwriters Hall of Famer whose collaborations with The Eagles, Linda Ronstadt and James Taylor helped define the country-tinged Laurel Canyon/Southern California rock sound of the 1970s, has died. He was 78.

His reps said Souther died peacefully at his home in Sandia Park, Nm, but did not provide a cause or date of death.

Born John David Souther on November 2, 1945, in Detroit — he went by Jd, sans periods, throughout nearly all of his professional career — Souther was raised in Amarillo, Texas. He moved to Los Angeles in the late 1960s, where he soon, and fortuitously, formed a band called Longbranch Pennywhistle with musician-songwriter Glenn Frey, a fellow Detroit native. The two would continue their songwriting collaboration even after Frey went on to cofound The Eagles, one of the most successful rock bands in history.

Together, Souther and Frey would contribute some of the Eagles’ most enduring and beloved songs,...

Jd Souther, the singer, songwriter and actor who co-wrote some of the biggest hits of the Eagles, like “New Kid in Town” and “Best of My Love,” and had a long solo career that included the top 10 hit “You’re Only Lonely,” died Tuesday at age 78. No cause of death was given but he was described by reps at Solters PR as dying peacefully at home in New Mexico.

Souther was about to go out for joint concert dates this fall with Karla Bonoff, another veteran of the 1970s Southern California singer-songwriter scene, and had performed as recently as five days ago.

Besides “New Kid” and “Best of My Love,” other compositions co-written by Souther that appeared on Eagles albums included “Heartache Tonight,” “Victim of Love,” “James Dean,” “Doolin-Dalton,” “The Sad Cafe,” “You Never Cry Like a Lover,” “Teenage Jail” and “Last Good Time in Town.” He was the sole writer of “How Long,...

Will Jennings, the two-time Oscar-winning lyricist who co-wrote Celine Dion’s “My Heart Will Go On” along with chart-topping hits by Eric Clapton, Steve Winwood, and Whitney Houston, has died at the age of 80.

Jennings’ caretaker confirmed the songwriter’s death to The Hollywood Reporter, adding that he died Friday at his home in Tyler, Texas. No cause of death was given, but Jennings had health issues in recent years.

Former J. Geils Band singer Peter Wolf, who collaborated with Jennings on a pair of solo albums, tweeted Saturday, “A sad time,...

Will Jennings, an Oscar winner for “My Heart Will Go On” and “Up Where We Belong” and one of the best known lyricists in the contemporary songwriting community, has died, his longtime publisher confirms to Variety. No cause of death was announced, although he had been ill for some time; he was 80.

Although the themes he co-wrote for “Titanic” (recorded by Celine Dion) and “An Officer and a Gentleman” (sung by Joe Cocker and Jennifer Warnes) won him his two Academy Awards, Jennings was equally renowned for a third film song, “Tears in Heaven” (performed by Eric Clapton), from the movie “Rush,” which won him a Golden Globe for best original song as well as Grammys for record of the year and song of the year. He also won three Grammy Awards.

Jennings also had major hits with songs recorded by Whitney Houston, Steve Winwood, Dionne Warwick, Barry Manilow and Tim McGraw,...

A blond woman who sometimes wears wigs; an early scene swathed in blue light; a song most famously performed by Roy Orbison prominently featured in the soundtrack. For some viewers, Strange Darling is a thing of mystery; for others it’s familiar territory. This need not reduce your enjoyment, however, because whilst it doesn’t consistently achieve the same quality as its inspirations, it’s still a gorgeous piece of work.

With a UK première at Frightfest just after its US release, the film is unashamedly rooted in horror, though aimed at a mainstream audience. Director Jt Mollner found his inspiration in the Final Girl trope, and the image of a woman running for her life, pursued by a dangerous man. This is, in essence, how it begins, after a very brief introduction in black and white has framed that man in a certain way. The contrast with the vivid colour of these.

The director, along with his collaborator Chrystabell explain – or try to – their new album Cellophane Memories and the magical marriage of music and film

‘Where we’re from,” says The Man from the Other Place in David Lynch’s TV series Twin Peaks, “there’s always music in the air.” The line concerns a terrifying alternate reality called the Black Lodge, but could apply to the whole of Lynch’s surrealist cinematic universe. From industrial drones to soaring ballads, it has always been filled with music: think of Roy Orbison songs shattering reality in Mulholland Drive and Blue Velvet, or Julee Cruise’s spectral singing in Twin Peaks. “Cinema is sound and picture both – 50/50 really,” Lynch says. “I don’t know why everyone doesn’t think this way.”

Lynch has long made his own music, dating back to 1977 with his soundtrack for his debut feature film Eraserhead, composed with sound designer Alan Splet.

Rapper Brother Marquis, a member of Miami hip-hop group 2 Live Crew, has died at the age of 58.

“Brother Marquis of the 2 Live crew has went to the upper room,” read the group’s statement posted on social media Monday. The group’s manager, DJ Debo, confirmed Marquis’ death to Rolling Stone. A cause of death was not immediately available.

Brother Marquis — as a member of 2 Live Crew alongside Fresh Kid Ice, Mr. Mixx, and Uncle Luke — made history with their expletive-filled 1989 album As Nasty As They Wanna Be. The album sold over a million copies,...

Brother Marquis, a member of the hip-hop group 2 Live Crew, has died at the age of 58.

2 Live Crew’s manager confirmed Brother Marquis’ death to TMZ on Monday, June 3rd. The cause of his death appears to be the result of natural causes, but details were not immediately known.

Born Mark Ross on April 4th, 1966, Marquis began rapping in his teenage years, eventually landing on the radar of 2 Live Crew’s Mr. Mixx in the ‘80s for his rap battle skills. After a position in the group opened, Mr. Mixx offered it to Marquis, who flew to Florida to join.

From there, the group — consisting of Mr. Mixx, Marquis, Fresh Kid Ice, and Uncle Luke (then known as Luke Skyywalker) — leaned into their humanistic sensibilities, and started gaining notoriety for raunchy, sexual songs, like “We Want Some Pussy” and “Throw the ‘D.’”

Ultimately, they came under national scrutiny with their third album,...
