Season 2 of Euphoria dominated the internet for the duration of its run, becoming the most-tweeted program of the decade and the second-most-watched series behind Game of Thrones. Season 2 has no shortage of noteworthy scenes, from Cal Jacobs’ history to Maddy’s feud with Cassie to Rue’s run-in with the cops.
Of course, music is one of Euphoria’s distinguishing characteristics. In reality, following his success with songs in season 1, Labrinth proceeded to make music for the last season, creating operatic-style music that accompanied difficult times in the drama. The show’s musical score was broadened by commissioning unique songs from artists such as Tove Lo and Lana Del Rey. Euphoria was also known for incorporating older songs in particular situations, resulting in a playlist that spanned several musical periods, with each song fitting each cast member in a unique way. Because the soundtrack was such an important element of the show’s popularity, we’ve compiled a list of the finest songs from Season 2 of Euphoria.
1. Tove Lo — How Long
Season 2 of Euphoria was notable for its usage of original music written particularly for the show. We heard Tove Lo’s “How Long” in Season 2. Due to its great excitement, this song stands out among the other original songs featured since it captures the nature of the series effectively and fits the party spirit.
2. Labrinth and Zendaya — I’m Tired
Euphoria’s season finale featured a cover of Labrinth’s “I’m Tired,” this time featuring Zendaya. After the credits rolled after the end, we got to hear the song, and the version is hauntingly beautiful and suits the series’ overall atmosphere.
3. INXS — Never Tears Us Apart
Season 2 gave us additional insight into Cal’s character as we got a glimpse inside his adolescence and the forbidden love he had with Derek. It’s a touching scene that’s also truly painful, allowing us to empathize (a bit) with the character. “Never Tear Us Apart” is the ideal complement to this scene, transporting us to a time when love was forbidden.
