Julia Michaels, “How Do We Get Back to Love,” and Banks, “Crowded Places” (Episode 9) The scene didn’t call for it, the scene called for something very, very intimate, just within the bubble of this one specific episode.” If, in a perfect world, we got some brand-new Taylor Swift song or a brand-new Lorde song, it would have just been too much pressure on the song. The big moment for Hannah is that Grover finally latches and that becomes the start of a new life for her, so it would have been too much pressure on whatever song. “In very early drafts, the script was written that we were going to end with ‘Fast Car’, but I don’t think it would have happened naturally. But it’s not the song that pisses her off, there’s so much emotion happening in between them and ‘Fast Car’ is just a vehicle for this moment. “It’s this very simple real-life moment, you know, Marnie singing in the car and it really pisses Hannah off.
it’s been a joke with a bunch of various behind-the-scenes music people - this funny group of emails and Facebook posts about ‘How did you get that song?’ Everyone’s been trying to get this song for 25 years! Before you say no, can I get Lena and Tracy on the phone together and just let the two of them talk?’ They spoke, and Lena called me ten minutes later and said she’s in. “I went to Tracy’s people and said, ‘I know it’s always a no, but here’s our situation: We want this to be how we end our series.
It’s not just some random episode of some TV show where a character is driving in a car listening to the radio.” If we were to feature one song, what would it be? I can’t remember if it was Lena’s idea or what, but we started talking about the idea of ‘Fast Car.’ Instantly I knew if ever there was a time she was gonna give the song to someone, it’s going to be now. We knew that we wanted to be very, very minimal with music in general.
“We thought of the finale in two different ways, when they say good-bye to all the girls in the ‘Goodbye Tour’ episode, and then there’s the actual finale, the postscript. It’s an automatic no, especially ‘Fast Car.’ does not license her music for shows or for films, it’s a blanket no. “Lena brought up Tracy Chapman very early on in the series, probably season one. At the end of the episode, Hannah hums “Fast Car” to her baby while breastfeeding. The scene: After moving upstate with Hannah, Marnie sings along to Tracy Chapman in the car.
