Music from The Misfits TV Show
What is The Misfits?
The Misfits is a British TV Show that has just finished it's Second Season. The soundtrack and music from the show contains a really great collection of songs.
The show itself is an original and fresh take on the super power genre. Personally I think it is brilliant, but whenever I try to tell people about it they say, "Oh, so it's like Heroes then?". No. It's nothing like Heroes. Comparing it to Heroes is like comparing an american college grad with a UK football hooligan. The Misfits is Heroes on crack without the polished to perfection characters and the big budget. But trust me, all of this is in its favour.
I cannot highly recommend the show enough if you enjoy shows from the UK. But let us get to the real reason for this Hub. The Music...
The Soundtrack...
Having watched both Seasons of the show, I could not help but notice how great the music and the selection of songs was, and that is what inspired this Hub.
So if you were watching The Misfits like me and thinking, "Oh, this song is great!", then never fear, for I have compiled all of the songs for you into one neat Hub.
The tracks are listed below in episode order & in order of when they are played in the episode. The Song/Band is shown as: “Name of the Song” – Band Name.
There are a few quirky songs in here along with the great ones, but bear in mind they were used for effect (generally humour) for the TV show! Anyway, here we go...
