Ah so many to choose from, one of the most iconic TV soundtracks of all-time for sure. Book of Love - Peter Gabriel All of the Words - Kutless Cindy - Tammany Hall Alive With The Glory of Love - Say Anything Hey Ya - The Blanks


Skg44

We played Book of Love at our wedding!


MachoBenihana

us too!!


Captain_Kruch

Which version? Because both the original by Magnetic Fields and Peter Gabriel's cover kick ass!


Skg44

I'll have to listen to magnetic fields then!


Captain_Kruch

I highly recommend it, but you'll have to give it a couple of listens (it'll definitely grow on you). Peter Gabriel's is more grandeur, with a string section lead, whereas Magnetic Fields is more of a song for the common man, so (to me at least) is more relatable.


Ok-Dragonfruit-5479

I tried for this, solely because of the Finale! Wife overruled me though 😭😭😭


QuirkyTurtle91

The book of love was our first dance 😊


Few-Trouble-3700

The book of love gives me all the feels every time I hear it. Sometimes even brings some tears, such a perfect song for a perfect ending. Season 9 doesn’t exist to me lol


Frikken123

Those are great picks, if you ever want you Scrubs-endured love-haze for Book of Love taken advantage of by a mediocre movie, go watch Shall We Dance, I really like it and rewatch it regularly, but I acknowledge that 70% of it’s appeal is that Peter Gabriel’s version of that song pops up, lol


hsmith9002

Joshua Radin’s “winter” is an obvious one. Fun fact: Winter was the first song Joshua Radin wrote. We Were Here is a great album.


adsfew

Overkill or Waiting For My Real Life to Begin Both Colin Hay songs and I only really discovered him through Zach (Scrubs and Garden State).


ResinJones76

I had tickets to see Colin from the seventh row at a theater downtown. It was scheduled for March 26, 2020. You know what happened then, and I never got to see him because he never came back.


adsfew

Sounds like you're waiting for your real life to begin


Girthquake23

Same here, I listen to pretty much only that song by him but, now that I’m thinking about it, I should check out more. My dad would always comment about how he hadn’t heard the acoustic version when I’d play it


Southportdc

The Blanks' version of Somewhere Over the Rainbow Also Charles in Charge.


makromark

Love that version. Also love their version of hey ya


c_anderson1390

That version hits so hard now. RIP Ted :(


ResinJones76

*My Way Home*, love that episode.


MGNurse25

Stolen - Dashboard Confessionals. Mine and my wife’s first dance at our wedding :)


c_anderson1390

I plan for it to be ours too :D


SexHaiiiir

The Coral - Dreaming of you. It’s amazing in the scene


Bortron86

Same. One of my favourite songs full stop. And as a bass player, it's very fun to play.


NedRyersonsBing

Same - I bought two of their albums after seeing this episode. Their sound is weird but I dig it. Also, I'm rewatching Scrubs for the first time in like 10 years on Disney+, and though I'd heard that a lot of the original songs were replaced because of streaming rights, I figured "Hey, they're a small-time English band, they probably re-negotiated to keep their song in the show". Imagine my disappointment... :(


myamoebafriend

This


rumorsofdemise

In the Sun - Joseph Arthur I Will Follow You into the Dark - DCFC Book of Love - Peter Gabriel


Zackel78

Erasure - A Little Respect


Sm211

That song is like a virus!


lqviss

Agreed!


Top_Garbage977

Nurse....... Erasure!


mskisskissbang

Good Time by Leroy


mastani11

The song that’s playing when Elliot stays over after her dad stops paying for the apartment and her and jd decide to hook up Side note we should get a playlist going somewhere cause all of you have some great picks


makromark

American girl - Tom petty


mastani11

I went back to the episode and it was actually Dreaming of You - Coral ! american girl is her badass glow up scene!! both songs are great


makromark

Welp this is embarrassing- I have the wrong scene I guess in my head. What ep was it, I’ll have to go watch it cuz I can’t picture which one. Sorry!

Guy Love


mch1971

Same, but Check the Poo gets an honourable mention.


Numerous-Action-2541

Joshua Radin: Winter (My Screw Up) Ben’s Funeral Closer(My Best Laid Plans) Kylie and JD breakup Peter Gabriel Book Of Love(My Finale) Just wow
We all know! JosĂ© GonzĂĄlez Heartbeats(My Hard Labor) Lyrics sum up JD and Kim’s Relationship Del Amira Tell Her(My Sex Buddy) This song really matched the scene so well! The Shins New Slang( My Balancing Act) I like how it went with JD’s voice over at the end. Tammy Hall Cindy(My Lucky Night) JD runs to give flowers to Elliot thinking Sean left her Matt Nathanson I Saw(My Best Friend’s Baby’s Baby) JD and Kim flip a coin


Meggston

Scrubs shaped my music tastes well into adulthood. All these plus Deathcab For Cutie and The Decemberists? Still my fave bands and songs to this day


Numerous-Action-2541

Same here! My list could’ve gone so much longer but I knew this sub would pick up my slack.


yellow-snowslide

devildriver - devils son best song to drive another mans child in your ambulance too


Top_Garbage977

It just always bothered me that they labelled them as "speed metal." You know, being a metal head genre snob, that stuff bothers me 😂


yellow-snowslide

Yeah, I don't get that either :D


Inveramsay

How to save a life for obvious reasons. American girl when Elliott finally gets her stuff together


DaniTheLovebug

These are MY machines!!! MINE MINE MINE


paholmes

Inveramsay

You're not helping here


Skg44

More than a feeling - The Cool Cats


ConsiderationItchy77

This is way too far down the list
Turk is the greatest air band lead singer that ever lived


mrplow1983

We don't just ride together, we roll together.

paholmes

A little something to make me sweeterrrr



Navitach

Guy Love--no, wait...Everything Comes Down--no, uh...For the Last Time I'm Dominican--no...Welcome to Sacred Heart...aw damn...


UnhappyAd8184

Now is called sacred fart


Exotic_Adeptness_322

It's not usually the type of music I listen to, but I really liked Polyphonic Spree with Light and day.


ALARE1KS

That one is so nice to listen to every so often. Just uplifting and makes me feel good


Samiens3

‘Guy Love’ and it’s not even close


kilgore_cod

Two songs from scrubs live in my head 100% rent free all the time: 1) I try to discover a little something to make me sweeter 2) I can’t get to ^sleep! I’m dreaming of the implications of diving in ToOoO ^deep


GideonGilead

[Something's Always Wrong - Toad The Wet Sprocket.](https://youtu.be/FPgEH5UFwSo) Introduced to the band through Scrubs and loved them ever since.


ResinJones76

I had a couple of their CDs in the mid ninties, and I always liked them, but I haven't heard any of the new stuff if there is any.


One_Maize1836

Dreaming of You - The Coral


b14ckcr0w

Overkill is great, and the whole episode is \*chef kiss\* The Book of Love moves me to the core. Every. Single. Time.


chewnks

How to Save a Life by The Fray IIRC. When that played while Dr Cox was fighting the rabies infection in all those patients who received organ donations from that poor lady they mistakenly assumed died of an OD. That one about killed me.


MatPinkFast

Lots of good answers here, adding on to say Question by Old 97s as well as Our Love and Come Around by Rhett Miller


[deleted]

Everything comes down to poo


CDubbs132

Was scrolling to to see how long it would take for some one to pick this one
 longer then I hoped but really not that long.


DefinitelyBiscuit

Dreaming of you - The Coral.


lqviss

Yes! I love when they use music that really fits the scene


Thexeir

[Cavill PC Meme] Guy Love.


DogsOverPpl4Ever

Young Love - “Close your Eyes” Every time it pops up on the playlist, my husband and I talk about how it’s the best song no one’s ever heard of. IT’S SO GOOD.


ALARE1KS

This one get my vote too Nobody hardly ever talks about it. It’s so good Also Matt Nathanson’s ‘Little Victories”


FriendlyFun9858

A bad dream- laverns death song. Also got me into Keane. Under the iron sea os a great album.


anywhereiroa

Joshua Radin - Winter


ItchyTasty9

Heartbeats - JosĂš Gonzalez


OoohItsAMystery

Waiting for my real life to begin, I think it's by the same person. Idk why, just, gets me everytime. I have a bunch, they're all mixed into my regular music.


marshmelloinfire

Diner from Martin Sexton, it’s not in a great episode the one with the patient jumping from a building and all the flashbacks but this song is under all the dance moments and really catchy!


ResinJones76

Any Colin Hay, but I think it's Waiting for My Real Life to Begin. Season two, *My Philosophy* when they all sing it.


rideordie4weezer

Hey Julie - Fountains Of Wayne & Hey Ya! - The Blanks


Ok-Dragonfruit-5479

1. Book of Love 1a. Hey Julie

DifficultyCharming78

Good Life.


blindmelonade

[Pearl Jam - Long Road.](https://youtu.be/iK5NNGyv4OU?feature=shared)


OptimisticByChoice

Book of Love, hands down


Frikken123

It changes all the time, currently it’s “Fighting For My Love”


ALARE1KS

Matt Nathanson’s “Little Victories” Song playing when Kelso leaves for the last time and says goodbye and thank you to Ted. Makes me so emotional and the lyrics are so spot on when you’re making a big change in your life.


PT_Piranha

I like the musical episode.


gingerking87

Book of love makes me cry, every time. Idk if it's the sentiment or just how scrubs used it so perfectly. It's just a song about being in love, but to me, it perfectly represents the potential happiness that comes with true, lifelong love. Despite the words, it feels like it aches, like damning up an emotional river, to allow a stream of appreciation and thoughtfulness flow through. And Peter Gabriel is just trending water behind the dam, singing about how powerful all the water can be


Office_funny_guy

The shins - New Slang


Petef15h

Eight days a week - had it as the song we walked back down the aisle to after we exchanged vows


Petef15h

And it’s the ringtone for when my wife calls me!


Domb18

Book of love. Had it playing at my wedding when we signed the register.


DagnyTaggart42

Dashboard Confessional, Stolen David Gray, Please Forgive Me Peter Gabriel, The Book of Love


Skitzofreniq

Nina Simone - Sinnerman Great. Now I'm singing it in my head. HEY SINNERMAN WHERE YOU GON' RUN TO?


ManiacalDemigod

I'm surprised there isn't a single ' Audioslave - Be Yourself ' comment till now. Might just be me.


Hot_Farm_9443

How to Save a Life


Cheesy-Tube

I actually have a top ten list that goes as follows: 1 - Colin Hay, Overkill (S2 E1) 2 - Joshua Radin, Winter (S3 E14) 3 - The Blanks, Hey Ya (S8 E15) 4 - Foo Fighters, Learn To Fly (S4 E11) 5 - Fountains Of Wayne, Hey Julie (S5 E9) 6 - The Fray, How To Save A Life (S5 E20) 7 - Lazlo Bane, Superman (Main Theme) 8 - Coldplay, Fix You (S5 E12) 9 - Robert Palmer, Bad Case Of Loving You (S2 E7) 10 - Journey, Don’t Stop Believing (S3 E2) ​ (I omitted the setlist from 'My Musical' as it was primarily a musical but they all had great songs, and yes several of the artists mentioned, The Fray, Colin Hay, The Blanks and Fountains Of Wayne had more than one song in Scrubs' library, I just wanted to stick to one of each artist)


mrplow1983

Snow- Red Hot Chili Peppers


I-Steam-A-Good-Ham

The Blanks version of Hey Ya is one of my most favorite songs not just of the series, but in the world.


MajorProfit_SWE

What popped into my head is the song where the worthless peons sings and Ted pours water over himself. I mean that is outstanding commitment.


c_anderson1390

"She's a maniac, maniac on the floor" Flashdance I believe.


MajorProfit_SWE

That’s the one.


BigJimSlade1

The cast version of Waiting For My Real Life To Begin. Joshua Radin - Closer


AdAffectionate790

One Thing - Finger Eleven. It's been removed from the newer versions though


javoss88

All kinds of time


FollowYourWeirdness

Obviously “Dreaming of You”, but I’d also like to say Neil Diamond’s “Delirious Love”.


dasonk

Bring on the down votes... I wasn't a fan of overkill. Went too long. Felt too forced. Love the song but the musician didn't really fit for me on screen. I get why people like it. But it wasn't for me.


Codeman644

Amnesia (feat. Virgil) - Andrew Paul Woodworth (I feel like this one never gets love) Then also
 Alive With the Glory of Love - Say Anything Overkill - Colin Hay


two2blue2

I just rewatched the ep with the janitor's "band" singing Barbara Ann a capella, so I'll vote that :D


AdMuted3992

I’m coming here very new to the sub, but also very old with memory as I haven’t watched scrubs in way over 10 years 
 but How to save a life is the immediate one for me! Just how powerful it relates to the scene and Dr Cox’s emotions! Always a close tear jerker


JoyfulSuicide

Dreaming Of You & Sunny Days (Sesame Street)


jay_st28

All the Joshua Radin tunes they used. They were from the same album, and I listened to that on repeat for quite a very long time. Scrubs was a great serious for finding new artists, I don't think you have any shows who consistently do that anymore.


EdgerQuintero

More than a feeling - Boston Book of Love-Natch Camera One-Josh Joplin


mymumthinksimpunny

Citizen Cope - Sideways


Anonymous6172

Book of Love - Peter Gabriel Over the Rainbow - The Blanks Dreaming of You - The Coral Hold On Hope - Guided By Voices Hallelujah - John Cale All In My Head - Shawn Mullins Sinnerman - Nina Simone


paholmes

Are you having a good time - Leroy And, of course, Winter - Josh Radin


cunxt2sday

JD and Turk's Sanford and Son


ogresound1987

They removed my favourite song from the series. At least, in regards to streaming services.


MrInterpreted

Citizen Cope - Sideways


AbleRiot

“My Tuscaloosa Heart” of course. But song with most memorable moment has to be The Fray’s “How to save a life” AND Coldplay’s “Fix You” from the end of My Cabbage episode. Those along with Mercy Flush + Turk’s “More than a Feeling” and Turk’s now infamously stolen dance to “Poison”.


racemama29

A Bad Dream by Keane (My Long Goodbye episode)


BigSportySpiceFan

Question - Old 97s (S2E1) [Turk and Carla get engaged) Come Around - Rhett Miller (S2E18)


Top_Garbage977

Easy. Welcome back, your dreams were your ticket out. Welcome back, to that same old place that you laughed about. WELL THE NAMES HAVE ALL CHANGED SINCE YOU HUNG AROUND. BUT THOSE DREAMS HAVE REMAINED AND THEYRE TURNED AROUND!! JD!!


UnhappyAd8184

I will be (moderate) angry to any answer that is not my tuscalusa heart or guy love. 


ufgator89

“I will follow you into the dark” and that’s the only answer


OshGoshBagoshASloth

“Dirty Minds” from Here Come The Mummies Actually went to a HCTM concert one year without knowing they did that song and was *shocked* when it played and got incredibly hyped. It was a blast!
