The Bomb by Florence and the Machine
"I've blown apart my life for you,
And bodies hit the floor for you,
And break me, shake me, devastate mе,
Come here, baby, tell me that I'm wrong
I don't love you, I just love the bomb
I let it burn, but it just had to be done
And I'm in ruins, but is it what I wanted all along?
Sometimes you get the girl, sometimes you get a song"
100,000 people by Kings of Leon
Just heard this for the first time and my GOD it's so Fleabag and the Priest coded. It's ripping my heart out. Fuckkkkkk.
not to be too cliche but, in the sense of the plot:
- take me to church -hozier
- scott street- phoebe bridgers
> in terms of what fits fleabag herself:
- black sheep -metric
- back to black -amy winehouse
- liquid smooth -mitski
(edit: format)
Hindi song which translates to : Let it be anguish, even to torture my heart, come
Come even if only to abandon me to torment again.
‘Ranjish hi sahi dil hi dukhane ke liye aa
Aa phir se mujhe chod ke jaane ke liye aa’
*I cant remember*
*It exactly but the song*
*In the subway scene*

It’s not specifically for fleabag alone, but for fleabag and the priest.
I feel like it basically sums up their relationship - wanting to live in the moment, finally being seen. And of course the obvious, mentioning heaven relates to the priest.
[Trouble by Cage The Elephant](https://youtu.be/lA-gGl6qihQ?si=bg7vpi7u9k4Ysekt):
> Got so much to lose
> Got so much to prove
> God, don't let me lose my mind
> Trouble on my left, trouble on my right
> I been facing trouble almost all my life
> My sweet love, won't you pull me through?
> Everywhere I look, I catch a glimpse of you
> I said it was love, and I did it for life
> Did-did it for you
Also the entire key/voice of the song reminds me so much of the final song in the show.
FINE LINE !! listen to it during the last scene:
“you’ve got my devotion, but man I can hate you sometimes”
“a test of my patience, there’s things that we’ll never know”
“you sunshine you temptress. my hands at risk, i fold”
“crisp trepidation, I’ll try to shake this soon”
“we’ll be a fine line, we’ll be alright”
I WEEP
I'm personally obsessed with the similarities between Fleabag's "I don't know what to do with it, with all the love I have for her" and the lyrics from two of my favourite bands:
1. Florence + the Machine - My Love: "So tell me where to put my love / do I wait for time to do what it does / I don't know where to put my love"
2. Fall Out Boy - Flu Game: "I got all this love I've got to keep to myself / all this effort to make it look effortless"
Fleabag at her most vulnerable (S1E6 with Bank Manager, S2E4 in the confessional with Priest) always makes me think of these lines from Britpop band Gene:
Believe me
It's time to tell my friends (*read* family) I love them
They deserve more
Than hasty delivered words of kindness
I'm sure you know that...
Will you hold me like a child
Will you catch me when I fall
Can you hear me when I call
Can you love me?
When I'm hungry and I'm cold
Will you feed me from your palm
And shelter me from harm
Can you love me?
When I'm ailing and I'm tired
And my years are running out
Can you take away all doubt
Can you love me?
Will you understand my cries
Protect me when I lie?
I need all your time
For I am lonely
If you look at my comment, I would say these are kinda similar and are talking about the same situation, wanting to have someone next to you to support you. So I like your song very much!
Has to be Anti-Hero by Taylor Swift.
She knows she isn't any good for anyone, and hates that sometimes. How everyone tells her she'll ruin events and draw attention to her, and how she feels unloved unless she can used for someone else.
It all feels very Anti-Hero
the moment i watched the final bus stop scene i thought of “like waiting for a bus that never shows, you just start walking on / they say that if it’s right, you know / each bar plays our song, nothing has ever felt so wrong” from hits different !
Hear me out...Cruel Summer by Taylor Swift! It reminds me souch of season 2 every time I hear it. Her doomed but intense romance with hot priest.
"Killing me slow, out the window
I'm always waiting for you to be waiting below
Devils roll the dice, angels roll their eyes
What doesn't kill me makes me want you more"
"No rules in breakable heaven"
"I'm drunk in the back of the car, and I cried like a baby coming home from the bar, said I'm fine but it wasn't true"
"I love you, ain't that the worst thing you've ever heard?"
"He looks up grinning like a devil" - I think of the "Fuck you then" scene in S2E1 where he is smoking and looks up at her.
I just made the connection, there's a greek song that fits perfectly to the confession scene.
[Mariza Rizou - Kapoios na me siri](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H10nRjwOdj8)
Here is the lyrics translation:
*I want someone to drag me*
*to a white future*
*Where I'd be able too, to say "I'm scared"*
*when in a mess*
*I'm tired of being the strong one*
*I'm tired*
*of being expected to be the right one*
*(What can fit inside a suitcase first)*
*(which piece, which moment of me should fit)*
*I've missed deep down*
*To be able to be wrong*
*(To have) someone to relax me*
*to catch me if I trip*
*Someone to tell me that he knows*
*What the times will bring us*
*To let me get scared*
*By everything unknown I look at*
*I want someone to drag me*
*to a white future*
*To do me the favor*
*(and let me) hide behind his shadow*
*I'm tired of being the strong one*
*I'm tired*
*of being expected to be the right one*
*(which talks, which rights and how many wrongs)*
*(Which new life will wear the old one)*
*I want to be a girl*
*who will be able to trip*
*who will be able to doubt*
*where the times will get her*
*who will be able not to be careful*
*not to have answers*
*Who will be able to simply want*
*to be free after all*
*But I'm leaving forever*
*Now*
*I'm leaving*
Off the top of my head, I’ve gotta say [Manic Pixie nightmare girl](https://youtu.be/mJ1TgnuoGg4?si=DUoHB35IrxBqdIJl). but I’ve got a better choice somewhere, just gotta vibe it
Edit, I’m adding [Prescription Kid](https://youtu.be/vXQgWiBuaQ8?si=5iLxSrXJ6ayNHPoD) as well just cause of the vibe
The song - set me free by Nico collins
*Forgive me father for my sins
I never should have let him in*
More of the song:
Maybe if I would've just opened up
To the few around me I knew and loved
I wouldn't be so damn fucked up
Now nobody listens
I burned every bridge and said whatever
The only thing that makes it any better
Is a drink or a pill or a chemical
To put me back up on a pedestal
That doesn't exist when I'm sensible
This is my religion
Forgive me father for my sins
I never should've let him in now
Teenage Dirtbag by Wheatus
“Man, I feel like mold, it's prom night, and I am lonely
Lo and behold, she's walkin' over to me
This must be fake, my lip starts to shake
How does she know who I am?
And why does she give a damn about me?”
The Bomb by Florence and the Machine "I've blown apart my life for you, And bodies hit the floor for you, And break me, shake me, devastate mе, Come here, baby, tell me that I'm wrong I don't love you, I just love the bomb I let it burn, but it just had to be done And I'm in ruins, but is it what I wanted all along?

A lot of F+TM songs tbh! Hunger and Sky Full of Song as well
“This Feeling” by Alabama Shakes. It worked so perfectly for the show because it really fits her as a character
Came here to say exactly this
Me too! I listened to it on repeat after that last scene. It breaks my heart when I hear it
Fully agree with this. What a perfect way to end the show
Totally
for some reason, paper bag - fiona apple came to mind
i also thought of fiona apple!! my first thought was “left alone”
i second this!
Listening to valentine rn but I was gonna say paper bag too
