Every Song in Nobody Wants This Season 2: The Ultimate Netflix Romcom Soundtrack Guide

Netflix just dropped Nobody Wants This season 2 yesterday (Oct 23, 2025), and the show did not come to play with its music cues. Last season set the tone with sunny LA vibes, quick-fire banter, and needle-drops from Haim, Rihanna, and Gracie Abrams' 'Close to You.' Season 2 basically levels up across the board with bigger artists, deeper cuts, and a soundtrack that mirrors Joanne and Noah figuring out love, family, and their not-exactly-matching religious practices. It sounds expensive, because it is.

Quick context: Kristen Bell and Adam Brody are back as Joanne and Noah, and the songs track right alongside their relationship swings — indie, pop, country, R&B, and a few left turns that somehow make perfect sense in the moment. Also worth flagging: the music pull this season was helped by a very Hollywood twist — Simon Tikhman (CEO of The Core and husband to showrunner Erin Foster) teamed with Interscope Studio to wrangle artists for the original soundtrack, as reported by THR. So yes, some well-placed connections are doing overtime here, and you can hear it in the lineup.

Bottom line

Season 2 keeps the show funny and warm, and the music does a lot of the emotional heavy lifting — from heartbreak to the makeups. If you like the series, the album is an easy add to your queue.
