Supernatural's Greatest Hits: The 8 Songs We Just Can't Quit
Supernatural has one of the best soundtracks in television history.
Supernatural has long been remembered not only for the fascinating story of two hunter brothers, Sam and Dean, and their journey through the world of angels, demons, and supernatural creatures, but also for its wonderful and unforgettable soundtrack.
The show has featured many classic rock songs — from The Animals to Lynyrd Skynyrd, from Steppenwolf to AC/DC, these bands alone speak volumes about the creators' impeccable musical taste.
Here are eight best tracks from Supernatural that fans just can't let go.
8. Styx — Renegade
Season 2, Episode 12
Sam and Dean had to disguise themselves as FBI agents to investigate a mysterious crime scene. When the enforcers learned the truth about the brothers, they had to flee the scene as this progressive rock song played in the background.
7. Bon Jovi — Wanted Dead Or Alive
Season 3, Episode 16
Dean's contract with the Crossroads Demon was about to expire, meaning his death was imminent. In their final moments together, Sam and Dean rode in their Impala, singing the iconic song — this was a touching moment that fans will never forget.
6. Billy Squier — Lonely Is The Night
Season 4, Episode 2
Billy Squier may not be the most popular singer, but his music was a milestone in the history of hard rock, shaping the genre as we know it today. That's why we're glad that Supernatural creators made it a part of the show's fourth season.
5. Rob Benedict — Fare Thee Well
Season 11, Episode 20
In this episode, Chuck aka God aka the main antagonist performed a cover of the legendary folk song Fare Thee Well. It was actually sung by the actor himself, Rob Benedict, and it is one of the most beautiful renditions.
4. Motörhead — God Was Never on Your Side
Season 14, Episode 20
The title of this classic song by the legendary Motörhead is quite telling, as Sam and Dean never went along with God's own plans.
3. Kansas — Carry On Wayward Son
This song has become the show's unofficial anthem, appearing in the finale of almost every episode. We are grateful to the creators for bringing this amazing piece of progressive rock to the spotlight!
2. Jen Titus — O'Death
Season 5, Episode 21
Death's appearance in the penultimate episode of Season 5 was truly menacing and eerie. The effect was only enhanced by the powerhouse that is Jen Titus' voice.
1. Blue Öyster Cult — [Don't Fear] The Reaper
Season 1, Episode 12
This song was played in the scene where a woman was being chased by the Reaper in the woods. Not only does it fit the story perfectly, the song is also a masterpiece of psychedelic rock.
