Season 4 - "The End's Not Near, It's Here"

Patrick Park - Life is a song

This song plays over the end of the episode montage.



You say life is a dream where we can't say what we mean
Maybe just some roadside scene that we're driving past
There's no telling where we'll be in a day or in a week
And there's no promises of peace or of happiness

Well is this why you cling to every little thing
And pulverize and derange all your senses
Maybe life is a song but you're scared to sing along
Until the very ending

Oh, it's time to let go of everything we used to know
Ideas that strengthen who we've been
It's time to cut ties that won't ever free our minds
From the chains and shackles that they're in

Oh, tell me what good is saying that you're free
In a dark and storming sea
You're chained to your history, you're surely sinking fast
You say that you know that the good Lord's in control
He's gonna bless and keep your tired and oh so restless soul
But at the end of the day when every price has been paid
You're gonna rise and sit beside him on some old seat of gold
And won't you tell me why you live like you're afraid to die
You'll die like you're afraid to go

Oh, it's time to let go of everything we used to know
Ideas that strengthen who we've been
It's time to cut ties that won't ever free our minds
From chains and shackles that they're in
From the chains and shackles that they're in

Well life is a dream 'cause we're all walking in our sleep
You could see us stand in lines like we're dead upon our feet
And we build our house of cards and then we wait for it to fall
Always forget how strange it is just to be alive at all

Season 3 - "The Cliffhanger"

James Blunt - Fall at your feet

This song first plays as Johnny confesses his love to Marissa on the pier. It is heard again as a drunken Johnny re-reads the letter from Marissa, and throws it in the fire, while at the beach with Kaitlin. It plays one last time as Ryan and Marissa come to rescue Johnny, and Johnny falls.



I'm really close tonight
And I feel like I'm moving inside her
Lying in the dark
And I think that I'm beginning to know her
Let it go
I'll be there when you call
And whenever I fall at your feet
Do you let your tears rain down on me
Whenever I touch your slow turning pain

You're hiding from me now
There's something in the way that you're talkin'
Words don't sound right
But I hear them all moving inside you
Go now
I'll be there when you call
And whenever I fall at your feet
Do you let your tears rain down on me
Whenever I touch your slow turning pain

The finger of blame has turned upon itself
And I'm more than willing to offer myself
Do you want my presence or need my help?
Who knows where that might lead
I fall

The finger of blame has turned upon itself
And I'm more than willing to offer myself
Do you want my presence or need my help?
Who knows where that might lead
I fall at your feet

Season 2 - "The O.C. Confidential"

Arkarna - House On Fire

Seth and Zach meet Reed at her place & get notes on their graphic novel. Later Seth, Summer & Zach arrive to Reeds Silverlake party. At the party, Summer gets totally irritated & tells Seth she wants to leave, she ends up getting a ride from Zach.




Girl we get on like a house on fire,
You're feeding the flames, I can't complain,
Choose your life it's an innocent lie,
Against the grain it's all the same.

Spend my time wasting yours,
To give away you've got it all,
Spend your time wasting mine, No...

Times for wasting, celebrating.

What do you know learn to say no,
I can't resis, I'm an optomist
.

I spend my time wasting yours,
To give away you've got it all,
Spend your time wasting mine, No...

Innocence... Innersense... Oh woah,
Innocence... Innersense... Oh woah.

Times for wasting, celebrating...

Season 1 - "The L.A."

Jude - Out of L.A.

Song plays over a couple scenes as the gang winds down their crazy night out in L.A.



This town's got to shake down to its roots
I don't know if that's the sands or the tropical fruits
I don't believe all the things I see
But I'm still betting on you and me
Chorus:
Hey, hey baby, we've gotta get out of L.A.
Hey, hey baby, we've gotta get out of L.A.
I met a girl who looked like a movie star
She was going for a ride and I don't mean in a car
Had a brain about the size of a frozen pea
And on a scale of one to ten she was twenty-three
A big fat man's gonna make me a king
He's got a see-through tan and a pinky diamond ring
Slicked-back hair shirt to his thigh
Import silk slave labor dyed
Hey, hey baby, we've gotta get out of L.A.
Hey, hey baby, we've gotta get out of L.A.
Hey, hey baby, we've gotta go get out of L.A.
Hey, hey baby, we've gotta get out of L.A.
The boy whores sell their souls on the boulevard
And that's a shirt-free store where they don't take a credit card
From the hills to the chills its a quick fall down
It's a great big city, it's a real small town
Hey, hey baby, we've gotta get out of L.A.
Hey, hey baby, we've gotta get out of L.A.
Hey, hey baby, we've gotta go get out of L.A.
Hey, hey baby, we've gotta go. . .


Season 3 - "The Aftermath"

The 88 - Hide Another Mistake


Seth and Summer urge the group to not worry about what will happen and to have some fun, Marissa has an idea.
 

Over and over
they just say no sir
and now it's a big blur
I hid it up my sleeve

you gotta believe me
hey I need it badly
and they never see me
those sentimental fools

and I got the west coast sunshine
but it don't mean a thing

I'm getting over like I knew that I would
I'm feeling older than a younger man should
but one of these days i'll finally make good
and hide another mistake

I'm out on the sidewalk
I'm put in a headlock
I tried but I can't stop
i put it in my shoe

and I got the west coast sunshine
but it don't mean a thing

I'm getting over like I knew that I would
I'm feeling older than a younger man should
but one of these days i'll finally make good
and hide another mistake

this is a model tongue
this is the start of what's already done
this is the part that you eat when there's nowhere to turn

Season 2 - "Dearly Beloved"

Jose Gonzalez - Crosses

Summer comes to hang out with Seth & console him about his grandfather, but Seth confides that he is even more worried about his mom.



Don't you know that I'll be around to guide you
Through your weakest moments to leave them behind you
Returning nightmares only shadows
We'll cast some light and you'll be alright for now
Crosses all over, heavy on your shoulders
The sirens inside you waiting to step forward
Disturbing silence darkens your sight
We'll cast some light and you'll be alright for now
Crosses all over the boulevard
The streets outside your window overflooded
People staring they know you've been broken
Repeatedly reminded by the looks on their faces
Ignore them tonight and you'll be alright
We'll cast some light and you'll be alright

Season 1 - "The Third Wheel"

Beulah - Popular Mechanics For Lovers

Marissa and Ryan and Anna and Seth talk at school.



I know he knocks you off your feet
You're so bitter; you think he's sweet
Well he's wrong for you, I swear

Did you forget to read the script?
There was never a role for him
It was always you and me, just me

Popular mechanics for broken hearts could help me now

I know you never felt romance
And we always lack suspense
I can edit those parts out

I never made you feel complete
I would fall beneath your feet
I would never bring you down, so down

Popular mechanics for broken hearts could help me now

Just because he loves you too
He would never take a bullet for you
Don't believe a word he says
He would never cut his heart out for you

I heard he wrote you a song
But so what
Some guy wrote 69
And one just ain't enough

And there's so sense in trying
I know cuz I've been
Trying all the time to find something that would make you mine
But all I ever find my love
Are clichés that don't rhyme

Popular mechanics for broken hearts could help me now

Just because he loves you too
He would never take a bullet for you
Don't believe a word he says
He would never cut his heart out for you

Season 4 - "The Sleeping Beauty"

Goldspot - Float on

You hear this song as Julie and Kaitlin practice Tennis with Spencer.




I backed my car into a cop car the other day
Well he just drove off, sometimes life's OK
I ran my mouth off a bit too much, oh what did I say?
Well you just laughed it off, it was all OK

And we'll all float on OK
And we'll all float on OK
And we'll all float on OK
And we'll all float on anyway, well

A fake Jamaican took every last dime with that scam
It was worth it just to learn some sleight of hand
Bad news comes-don't you worry even when it lands
Good news will work its way to all them plans
We both got fired on exactly the same day,
Well, we'll float on, good news is on the way

And we'll all float on OK
And we'll all float on OK
And we'll all float on OK
And we'll all float on

Alright already, we'll all float on
No, don't you worry, we'll all float on
Alright, already, we'll all float on
Alright, don't worry, we'll all float on

(Alright! already!)
and we'll all float on
Alright already, we'll all float on
Alright, don't worry even if things end up a bit too heavy
We'll all float on
Alright already, we'll all float on
Alright already, we'll all float on OK
Don't worry, we'll all float on
Even if things get heavy, we'll all float on

Alright already, we'll all float on (alright!)
Don't you worry, we'll all float on (alright!)
We'll all float on, all float on

Season 3 - "The Graduates"

Imogen Heap - Speeding cars

This song plays during the big graduation scene. Names are called, diplomas are handed out. Taylor gives her big speech.


Here's the day you hoped would never come
Don't feed me violence
just run with me through rows of speeding cars.
The papercuts the cheating lovers
The coffee's never strong enough
i know you think it's more than just bad luck

There there baby
it's just text book stuff
it's in the ABC of growing up
Now now darling
oh don't lose your head
cause none of us were angels
and you know I love you yeah

Sleeping pills know sleeping dogs lie
never far enough away
Glistening in the cold sweat of guilt
I've watched you slowly winding down for years
You can't keep on like this...
now's a bad a time as any

There there baby
it's just text book stuff
it's in the ABC of growing up
Now now darling
oh don't kill yourself
cause none of us were angels
and you know I love you yeah

it's ok by me..

it's ok by me..

it's ok by me..it was a long time ago

There there baby
it's just text book stuff
it's in the ABC of growing up
Now now darling
oh don't lose your head
cause none of us were angels
and you know I love you yeah


Season 2 - "The Return Of The Nana"

Spoon - Turn My Camera On

The boys walk the strip & check out the Miami night life.


I turn my camera on
I cut my fingers on the way
The way I'm slippin away
I turn my feelings off
Y'made me untouchable for life
And you wasn't polite

It hit me like a tom
You hit me like a tom
On on and on

When I turn my feelings on
I turn my feelings on inside
Feel like I'm gonna ignite
I saw them stars go off
I saw them stars go off at night
And they're looking alright

Keep on blowin up
Keep on blowin em off
Get up roll it out
Keep on showin em out

Y'hit me like a tom
It hit me like a tom
On and on a tom

I turn my camera on
I cut my fingers on the way
I feel me slippin away
I wipe my feelings off
Y'made me untouchable for life
And you wasn't polite

Y'hit me like a tom
I don't know where it's from
It hit me like a tom-tom

Season 1 - "The Goodbye Girl"

Nada Surf - If you leave


Song plays as Seth drops off Anna at the airport and says goodbye.


If you leave, don't leave now
Please don't take my heart away
Promise me just one more night
Then we'll go our separate ways
We always had time on our sides
Now it's fading fast
Every second every moment
We've gotta make it last

I touch you once, I touch you twice
I won't let go at any price
I need you now like I needed you then
You always said we'd still be friends someday

If you leave, I won't cry
I won't waste a single day
But if you leave, don't look back
I'll be running the other way
Seven years went under the bridge
Like time was standing still
Heaven knows what happens now
You've gotta say you will

I touch you once, I touch you twice
I won't let go at any price
I need you now like I needed you then
You always said we'd meet again someday

day, day, day

I touch you once I touch you twice
I won't let go at any price
I need you now like I needed you then
You always said we'd meet again someday

(ha, ha, ha, ha, ha)
If you leave
if you leave
Don't look back
Don't look back

Season 1 - "The Nana"

Jem -Just A Ride

Song plays as Jimmy checks up on Hailey and they flirt with each other.



Life, it's ever so strange
It's so full of change
Think that you've worked it out
then BANG
Right out of the blue
Something happens to you
To throw you off course
and then you

Breakdown
Yeah you breakdown
Well don't you breakdown
Listen to me
Because

It's just a ride, it's just a ride
no need to run, no need to hide
It'll take you round and round
Sometimes you're up
sometimes you're down
It's just a ride, it's just a ride
don't be scared
don't hide your eyes
It may feel so real inside
but don't forget it's just a ride

Truth, we don't wanna hear
It's too much to take
Don't like to feel out of control
So we make our plans
Ten times a day
And when they don't go
our way we

Breakdown
Yeah we breakdown
Well don't you breakdown
Listen to me
Because

It's just a ride, it's just a ride
no need to run, no need to hide
It'll take you round and round
Sometimes you're up
sometimes you're down
It's just a ride, it's just a ride
don't be scared
don't hide your eyes
It may feel so real inside
but don't forget it's just a ride

Slowly, oh so very slowly
accept that
there's no getting off
So live it, just gotta go with it
coz this ride's, never gonna stop

Breakdown
Don't you breakdown
No need to breakdown
No need at all
Because

It's just a ride, it's just a ride
no need to run, no need to hide
It'll take you all around
Sometimes you're up
sometimes you're down
It's just a ride, it's just a ride
don't be scared now
dry your eyes
It may feel so real inside
but dont forget enjoy the ride.

It's just a ride, it's just a ride
no need to run, no need to hide
It'll take you all around
Sometimes you're up
sometimes you're down
It's just a ride, it's just a ride
don't be scared now
dry your eyes
It may feel so real inside
but dont forget enjoy the ride.

Season 3 - "The Heavy Lifting"


Sufjan Stevens - For The Widows In Paradise, For The Fatherless In Ypsilanti

This song first plays at Johnny's funeral. It plays again at the end of the episode while Kaitlin drives away from Newport with Justin, and Marissa holds the neckless from Johnny and cries.





I have called you children, I have called you son.
What is there to answer if I'm the only one?
Morning comes in Paradise, morning comes in light.
Still I must obey, still I must invite.
If there's anything to say, if there's anything to do,
If there's any other way, I'll do anything for you
.

I was dressed embarrassment.
I was dressed in wine.
If you had a part of me, will you take you're time?
Even if I come back, even if I die
Is there some idea to replace my life?
Like a father to impress;
Like a mother's mourning dress,
If you ever make a mess, I'll do anything for you

I have called you preacher; I have called you son.
If you have a father or if you haven't one,
I'll do anything for you. I did everything for you

Season 2 - "The Telenovela"

Something Pretty - Patrick Park 

Song plays as Seth interrupts Summer's involvement at the school kissing booth and professes his love.



Here I am, where I've been
I've walked a hundred miles in tobacco skin,
And my clothes are worn & gritty.
And I know ugliness,
Now show me something pretty.
I was a dumb punk kid with nothing to lose
And too much weight for walking shoes.
I could have died from being boring.
As for loneliness,
She greets me every morning
.

At the most I'm a glare,
I'm the hopeless son who's hardly there.
I'm the open sign that's always busted.
I'm the friend you need, but can't be trusted.

At the most I'm a glare,
I'm the hopeless son who's hardly there.
I'm the open sign that's always busted.
I'm the friend you need, but can't be trusted.

I'm the friend you need, but can't be trusted.
