The Conversations With Friends Soundtrack Is Perfect For Your Sad Girl Summer

In Hulu’s Conversations With Friends, music plays an integral role in bringing Sally Rooney’s book to life. As the show follows four characters, Nick, Melissa, Bobbi, and Frances, through their messy relationships with one another, the full Conversations With Friends soundtrack is there to tell the sonic story. The songs include classics, new bops, and covers, which parallel their highs and lows, including club bops when Frances is feeling good and happy in her relationships, and sad songs when she feels crushed.

Unlike Rooney’s first Hulu adaptation, Normal People, which stuck solely to tearjerkers and piano ballads, Conversations blends melodrama with pop. Frances and Bobbi, ex-lovers and current best friends, go out to dance multiple times in the series introducing high energy songs that balance the more classic Bon Iver energy of the rest of the soundtrack. Music even plays a factor in Frances’ affair with Nick — in Episode 8, Nick sends Frances a song that reminds him of her, which is basically the 21st century version of a love letter.

The show got an impressive roster of musicians involved: Phoebe Bridgers wrote a song specifically for the series, a James Blake cover of a Joy Division song pops up in the middle of the season, and there’s even a shining moment for the TikTok megahit “Meet Me at Our Spot.”

Because many of the songs are new or covers, they can be hard to find on Spotify or other music streaming services. So if you’re looking for that one song you loved but you can’t quite locate it, you’ve come to the right place.
