Spoilers ahead.<\/p>\n<h2>5. \u201cFemme Hysteria\u201d by Haute &amp; Freddy<\/h2>\n<p>An \u201980s dance track in a horror series sounds like a risky pick, and it lands perfectly. Haute &amp; Freddy are an alternative-pop duo from Los Angeles. Their song turns female rage and witch-hunt history into a pop anthem. It blasts from Chris Hargensen\u2019s car in episode one, \u201c<strong>First<\/strong> <strong>Period<\/strong>,\u201d and returns in episode three, \u201c<strong>Social<\/strong> <strong>Studies<\/strong>,\u201d as the narration traces the history of women with telekinetic power.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Haute &amp; Freddy - Femme Hysteria (Official Visualizer)\" width=\"1240\" height=\"930\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ZA9FdL5PP-k?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h2>4. \u201cIn the Bleak Midwinter\u201d by Wolf Alice<\/h2>\n<p>The source material is <strong>Christina Rossetti\u2019s 1872 poem<\/strong>, later set to music as a classic English Christmas carol. Wolf Alice\u2019s version is among the show\u2019s notable needle drops. Its dreamy, shoegaze-leaning sound scores Carrie\u2019s first day at school after a lifetime of homeschooling. It feels like being born into a world that wasn\u2019t built for her.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Wolf Alice - In the Bleak Midwinter (Official Audio)\" width=\"1240\" height=\"698\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/yNycYjBWHd4?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h2>3. \u201cThe Scythe\u201d by The Last Dinner Party<\/h2>\n<p>Episode four, \u201c<strong>Dramatic<\/strong> <strong>Arts<\/strong>,\u201d ends with a muddy, broken Carrie coming home. The London baroque-pop band\u2019s track starts quiet and swells into a full-volume chorus over the credits. It\u2019s the moment she hits rock bottom, and the song\u2019s arc from falling apart to rebuilding points straight at what comes next.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"The Last Dinner Party - The Scythe (Official Video)\" width=\"1240\" height=\"930\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/aPT9Uk0wXDM?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h2>2. \u201cDid You Know That There\u2019s a Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd\u201d by Lana Del Rey<\/h2>\n<p>The title track of Lana\u2019s 2023 album plays over the prom-prep montage in episode seven, \u201c<strong>Romantic<\/strong> <strong>Literature<\/strong>.\u201d Decorations go up, prom court votes are cast, and Carrie sews her dress. It all looks hopeful, but Lana\u2019s voice adds dread. Flanagan has said the team rewrote the show around this song. It\u2019s the calm before the storm.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Lana Del Rey - Did you know that there&amp;apos;s a tunnel under Ocean Blvd (Audio)\" width=\"1240\" height=\"698\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/IuY54A3bOmg?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h2>1. \u201cShy Girl\u201d by Haute &amp; Freddy<\/h2>\n<p>This is the series\u2019 theme. A stripped-down version underscores key emotional moments, and the full track arrives in the finale, \u201c<strong>AP Physics<\/strong>.\u201d Flanagan reportedly rewrote the finale to make room for it. Carrie and her imaginary friend Emmaline dance while the town burns, an upbeat, joyful scene that\u2019s still unsettling. That contrast is the show in a nutshell.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Haute &amp; Freddy - Shy Girl (Official Music Video)\" width=\"1240\" height=\"698\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/TK-1LoKmnME?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mike Flanagan\u2019s Carrie is not just a horror reboot.
