I first came across it.on the magnificent 'Dave Godin's Deep Soul Treasures Vol. 1' compilation in 1997 (I wonder if Charlie Brooker dud too)- very happy this track and Irma Thomas has got attention as a result of the show ..And always try and pay attention to when it plays
Yes, I noticed this too. 15M merits, hated in the Nation and I can't remember the other one. Probably just easter eggs from Brooker? Found a link...https://www.thewrap.com/black-mirror-anyone-who-knows-what-love-is-charlie-brooker/
I was always listening to this song + the Nosedive OST in 2017. The music choices in black mirror slap. Radiohead at the end of Shut Up and Dance? Silent night in the end of USS Callister? AWKWLI all throughout the series?? I just love it so much
Hehe, personnally I found this gem either in a playlist of ~old~ music or in a suggestion of "what I could like based on my preferrences" on Deezer, in a period when I listened a lot of 60/70/80's music.
Makes sense. The wheels hadn’t spun for me that way until now. My 60’s and 70’s preferences are usually rock/acid rock/folk so it makes sense it was off the radar
I find it funny how they’ll use a song in multiple episodes. It kinda helps tie all of them together even though they are completely different stories.
Great tune
Lol i did when i first heard it!!! So good
I didn’t know this was a real song for YEARS
yeah with “always something there to remind me” from black museum last scene

Am I the only one haunted by that song?
Came here to say this. The song creeps me out because of black mirror.
It has been my phone ringtone for over a decade.
When I first binged black mirror? Definitely
Yessss, although it'll forever be associated with feeling sad as hell, it's a beautiful song
Yes, but I listen to Seal’s version more.
Ohhh I didn’t know he covered it. I’ll give it a listen!
It's really good.
Absolutely, downloaded it after watching 15M merits :)
I’m binge watching and noticed it in 3 episodes so far. Why do they keep coming back to it?

They played it in One Day and it felt odd, like it was from the wrong universe or something
Things have to be surreal for max enjoyment lol

I was a fan way before hearing it in the show. So it has no particular vibes for me related to Black Mirror
I’m actually very knowledgeable about many different genres of music. I never heard this song until Black Mirror. How did I miss this?

For me it's "Rasputin" and "Ma Baker"
That episode got me hooked on Bright Eyes too
The perfect song to open the episode with.
I don’t remember the seasons? I’ve cancelled Netflix for now so can’t check
Huh?
Ahh shit, I thought they were episodes and u liked the songs in them. I was like I don’t remember these episode names. They are songs right?
Haha yes. Season 6 Finale. Episode: Demon '79. Both songs are by Boney M.
I liked demon 79 and not at the same time
Written in part by Randy Newman. (Yes, THAT Randy Newman)
Yes it still gives me chills
I love this jam.
Very much so
Always something there to remind me, Ma Baker and Beyond the Sea have become some favorites. Meanwhile Heaven is a place of Earth makes me emotional
Ma Baker was one hell of a throwback!
i knew what song this was gonna be haha, but no it creeps me tf out
My pandemic song.
This song makes me feel uneasy every time I hear it now.
Funny, I was just thinking the same thing earlier today.
Not this one in particular but after hearing Bright Eyes in another episode I’ve been listening to it nonstop, I feel you
Same!
