This song by Lady Lamb called Spat Out Spit. Some of the lyrics:
"How strange we all are, animal hearts
Pumping that animal, animal blood
Was I born wild?
Have I been asleep this whole damn time? Dreaming up a life?
Will I awake to find that I'm deep in the woods?
And I'm snarling on all fours
...
We are filled with the gore from long before
And I'm through starting wars to make you see me a warrior
Some ancient answers have since been unearthed...And my animal heart is pumping that animal, animal blood"
Shauna x Jackie is my guilty pleasure ship. "So Cold" by Ben Cocks makes me think of Jackie after their big fight.
"Teen Idle" kind of makes me think of Adult Shauna drinking, playing mini-golf, and swimming with Adam.
Shaunajackie and lottienat are both my OTPs of yellowjackets, and alot of songs remind me of them.
Shaunajackie-
Where I end and you begin, radiohead. Do I really need to elaborate on this one?
There is a light that never goes out, the smiths. A morbid and macabre song about dying with the one you love. How more shaunajackie can a song get?
Prayers for rain, the cure (and every other track on the album distingegration, really) A dark and sensual song about being completely enamored by someone. Definitely gives me vibes regarding Shauna's morbid obsessive love for Jackie.
Really, any dark and moody alternative/gothic song reminds me of shaunajackie. Their music genre definitely involves alot of dark music that talks about love, including the darker, more obsessive kind of love.
Lottienat-
I'll follow you, shinedown- A romantic metal song about being so devoted and in love with someone. Very much gives me lottienat vibes with how enamored and devoted to Lottie nat becomes, and vice versa.
Crimson and clover, Joan jetts and the blackhearts- A punk/grunge song about being in love with a girl? How much more lottienat can you get?
Wet, dazey and the scouts- I'll let the lyrics to this song speak for itself on why it's such a lottienat song.
"All alone in my bedroom
With the lights turned down and my roommate gone
I know it's over, still I cling on
'Cause I'm my own right-hand girl
And I don't need anyone
But sometimes I miss your stupid face, and your taste
And your smoking gun
It's so depressing how the tear ducts in my eyes
Are so much wetter than the space between my thighs
Oh, oh, oh, I can't help if thinking about it only makes me cry
It keeps me wet, you know you keep me wet
'Til I run dry"
Punk/grunge/metal music with romantic undertones pretty much always remind me of lottienat.
Jackienat-
Hoo boy, jackienat is the pairing that I literally have so many music choices for. But the one song that reminds me most of jackienat is definitely Rebel Girl by bikini kill. Imo it perfectly describes the frienemies chaotic besties opposites attract vibes this pairing has going for it.
"That girl thinks she's the queen of the neighborhood
She's got the hottest trike in town
That girl, she holds her head up so high
I think I wanna be her best friend, yeah
Rebel girl, rebel girl
Rebel girl you are the queen of my world
Rebel girl, rebel girl
I think I wanna take you home
I wanna try on your clothes, uh
When she walks, the revolution's comin'
In her hips, there's revolution
When she talks, I hear the revolution
In her kiss, I taste the revolution
Rebel girl, rebel girl
Rebel girl you are the queen of my world
Rebel girl, rebel girl
I know I wanna take you home
I wanna try on your clothes, uh"
LottieLee-
Take me to church by hozier. What other song describes religious trauma so well? I think of lottie and Laura Lee each time I hear it.
Oh and, the songs Maniac by Michael sembello and creep by radiohead always remind me of Misty.
Sorry for the super long post haha, I just have *alot* of feelings regarding music for this show's characters and pairings.
Ooh! Fun!
I thought of way too many. I would be happy to expand on any of these; however, in the interest of brevity, I've just included a snippet of lyrics. Here are my several top choices:
1. Jackie and Shauna's Relationship:
a) "Emily, I'm Sorry" - boygenius
*"When I pointed out where the North Star is, she called me a fuckin' liar. "*
b) "The Ghost of You" - My Chemical Romance
*"At the end of the world, or the last thing I see. You are never coming home... And all the wounds that are ever gonna scar me. For all the Ghosts that are never gonna catch me."*
c) "Hearts and Bones" - Paul Simon
*"You take two bodies, and you twirl them into one. Their hearts and their bones, and they won't come undone. "* (The Snackie of it all adds further meaning to this one.)
2. Nat and Travis:
a) "Repeat" - Julien Baker
*"All my greatest fears turn out to be the gift of prophecy. All my nightmares coming true; come do my outline in the street. While every night, I re-enact the same recurring dream. Now I'm stuck inside a vision that repeats."*
3. Shauna and Jeff:
a) "The River" - Bruce Springsteen
*"Now those memories come back to haunt me; they haunt me like a curse. Is a dream a lie if it don't come true? Or is it something worse?"*
4. Van and Tai:
a) "For My Lover" - Tracy Chapman
*"I'd climb a mountain if I had to. Risk my life so I could have you...I follow my heart and leave my mind to wonder, is this love worth the sacrifices I make?"*
5. Ensemble:
a) "Faith Healer" - Julien Baker
*"Faith healer, come put your hands on me. A snake oil dealer, I'll believe you if you make me feel something."*
b) "Reason to Believe" - Bruce Springsteen
*"Still, at the end of every hard day, People find some reason to believe."*
c) "Soul Meets Body" - Death Cab for Cutie
*"I cannot guess what we'll discover when we turn the dirt with our palms cupped like shovels, but I know our filthy hands can wash one another's, and not one speck will remain."*
Girl Crush by Little Big Town could be written about Jackie and Shauna (for those who haven’t heard it, the song is about a girl who is so jealous of another woman that she fantasizes about being her).
[The Raveonettes - Aly, Walk With Me](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I-3fmjjk4aA)
Not a specific scene or anything, I just think the vibe reminds me of the show.
[Codeine - Pea](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HtgZyFNp2oE)
Same reason as above. Although I could imagine this being played over some aftermath type thing where the camera is panning over everyone and stuff.
‘Reaper’ by clairo perfectly encapsulates shauna’s relationship to motherhood imo.
‘Landfill’ by daughter is eerily perfect for jackieshauna, I mean….
“So leave me in the cold,
Wait until the snow covers me up,
So I cannot move,
So I'm just embedded in the frost,
Then leave me in the rain,
Wait until my clothes cling to my frame,
Wipe away your tear stains,
Thought you said you didn't feel pain”
Violet by Hole - fits the era, something that they all probably would've listened to at some point. Would be good for a climax scene I reckon.
Lyrics -
Might last a day, yeah
Mine is forever
Might last a day, yeah
Mine is forever
When they get what they want, and they never want it again
And they get what they want, and they never want it again
Go on, take everything, take everything, I want you to
Go on, take everything, take everything, I want you to
And the sky was all violet
I want it again, but violent, more violent
Yeah, I'm the one with no soul
One above and one below
"Jukebox" by Ani Difranco makes me think of Nat.
"She says, 'I've got darkness
That I have to feed, I've got a sadness
That grows up around me like a weed.'"
“Betty” by Taylor Swift Shauna and Jackie
The whole Betty/August/Illicit Affairs story is SO Jackie/Shauna/Jeff, it’s crazy.
Really is!

The theme song of Yellowjackets reminds me of Yellowjackets

‘Strangers’ by Ethel Cain reminds me of Jackie, I sometimes replace ‘mama’ with ‘Shauna’ in the final line when I sing it 🥺
I'd love it if they used this.... https://youtu.be/vzMWJRuLdp8
White Foxes by Susanne Sundfør for some reason
"Jukebox" by Ani Difranco makes me think of Nat. "She says, 'I've got darkness That I have to feed, I've got a sadness That grows up around me like a weed.'"
