The Music Of Veronica Mars

Episode 2-12: "Rashard And Wallace Go To White Castle"

  1. "All Out of Love" sung by Mike King (originally performed by Air Supply, Lost In Love, 1980; GH): karaoke song performed by Lars to his girlfriend (again)
  2. "Veronica" sung by Britt Daniel (of Spoon) (originally performed by Elvis Costello, Spike, 1989; GH): karaoke song performed next
  3. "Shine More" by Sandra Pires (originally performed by Namie Amuro, Style, 2003): Wallace confronts Rashard at the party. See Notes for more info.
  4. "See The Sun" by Scavone (Rawkus 50 Presents the Rehab Record, 2007): Wallace finds Jackie with Rashard
  5. "Better Than That" by Hadas (no album info): Monte asks Wallace where Rashard went. See Notes for more info.
  6. "Ego Trips vs. Better of You" by Nicky Scapa vs. Joey Ryan (no info): Monte arrives at the club and his cell phone is switched.
  7. "Jump Around" by House of Pain (House of Pain, 1992; GH): Guy Abrutti parties
  8. "I Summon You" by Spoon (Gimme Fiction, 2005): Weevil arrives at school.

Notes:

  • Sandra Pires: Pires wrote "Shine More," but Namie Amuro was the song's original performer, so I'm listing them both. There is also some evidence that this song is actually by Paul Taylor, which we're looking into.
  • Hadas: You can listen to "Better Than That" on her MySpace page.

It seems that the track "Shine More" may actually still be from the album Style by Namie Amuro. According to this website http://www.answers.com/topic/style-8 and in comparison to the Amazon listing for style, the tracks are the same. What I'm getting at is Namie Amuro is still technically the artist, but the vocals were by Sandra Pires. If it really actually makes a difference.

I've just heard the Namie Amuro version, it's basically the same melody, with a lot of japanese lyrics, and the voice resembles a lot, but I've been unable to find english lyrics that match what we have in the episode...

I can't find the english version for the life of me. But Sandra Pires wrote the song back on 2003 and Namie Amuro recorded it as a single in japanese for the album "style". But for this episode Sandra Pires sang an english version. I really want to hear it though.

The 'Ego Trips' song is not by Nicky Scapa & Joey Ryan, it's Nicki Blitz & Joey Ryan, or The Catalogue, as they are also called- which is probably the reason why it took me an hour and a half to find this damn song. Oddly enough, and 50 google searches later, I found it on some french girl's blog O_o. http://spesaera.skyrock.com/
It's on the right side, under 'soundtrack of my life'. You can actually download the track if you have RealPlayer. I feel like crying because I finally found it.

Hey where can I get the rock versions of these singles? I heard them a few weeks ago, but I didn't remember where I found them. I'll be so glad if you help me.

What's the song playing in the very first scene? When Veronica gives Wallace chocolate cake? Shazam doesn't recognize it.
