1. Gives You Hell - All American Rejects: I always imagine there to be a point in that first confrontational meeting between Emily and Rebecca where Emily is smiling like a smug bitch because, seriously, what a power trip.
2. Actions and Motives - 10 Years
3. Don't Hold Back - The Sleeping: That sex scene. Period. It's just the whole thing from start to finish. The energy is spot on too.
4. A Beautiful Lie - 30 Seconds to Mars
5. Life in a Bubble I Blew - Joywave
6. Combat Baby - Metric: Rebecca and Emily at the coffee shop, the first conversation sinice Rebecca quite. You get this feeling that things aren't as fun at work for Emily since Rebecca left and I've always thought it's because she liked the fight between them secretly. This song sums that up pretty well. I get a good chuckle out of the line "It's all caffeine free and faux punk fatigues." You either get it or you don't.
7. Emily - Catfish and the Bottlemen: That whole scene in Emily's apartment. "And Emily just phoned for me to smoke with her, and on her furniture, discuss how love has been." That's like the whole scene wrapped up in a single line of lyrics.
8. Emmy Lou - Vance Joy: This is the song that I imagine playing when Rebecca and Emily are dancing after they leave the bar, just before things get steamy.
9. Laughter Lines - Bastille
