jazzy_daveThe musical meme continues - and Buffy related , Season 3 "The Prom" which is one of my favourite episodes from that season.
The Sundays - Wild Horses
Yet another cover version makes it way to the Buffy proscenium, this time being the Sundays’ version of the Rolling Stones classic, “Wild Horses.” The transition from season three to season four was a big leap for the show, going from the confines of high school to the world of college and beyond. After surviving the `hell’ of college and breaking up with the `love of her life / afterlife’ on prom night, Buffy had to have some good things coming her way or she probably would have jumped in front of an oncoming bus. Those good things came in the form of recognition from her peers, a touching and unexpected moment, and a romantic gesture from her beau. That gesture occurred just as “Wild Horses” began to play, ensuring there’s not a dry eye in the room whenever the episode is played, no matter how many times its played.
Cream - Tales Of Brave Ulysses
This is another one of those “Giles is old” songs, and one that had significant consequences for Buffy and her family. You see, this song was playing when Buffy’s mom and Giles were hanging out, affected by a bad batch of candy bars that regressed everyone to adolescent behavior. The two ended up sleeping together, a fact that wasn't discovered until Buffy was able to read thoughts in a later episode. “Ulysses” is kind of a literary major’s version of “Sunshine of Your Love,” a precursor to the mighty Zep’s epic tales set to proto-metal guitars. Far out, man!
