I know this song is the same music as Day is Gone, but it’s a testament to how beautifully painful this song is to me that I’ve basically included it twice. He writes some of the most heartbreaking and truthful lyrics I have ever heard. If you don’t know Noah Gundersen, I strongly urge you to get into him. Someone got violent and did not think twice But everything that everyone is doing is in the name of their “family,” either their biological family or their chosen family. “ There’s a lot that happens: Jax beats up Ima, Unser leaves a death threat in Tara’s car Juice is a fucking mess. This song was used for the musical montage at the end of Season 4, episode 6, “ With an X.

But as the series unfolds, we see that Jax’s pursuit of the truth about his club, about Tara, and about his Father lead him to make some terrible, terrible choices. Jax obviously wants his newborn son Abel, to grow up surrounded by love, be strong, righteous and true. To be honest, I never really thought about the lyrics of Forever Young before I heard this cover on SOA. This song humanizes the SOA family because it illustrates that despite the extreme lives they live they still want the same fundamental things for their children. I love this cover because the singer’s voice is angelic but also a bit gritty and sleepy. It’s so rare to see a happy moment in Sons of Anarchy but this cover of the Bob Dylan classic was used in the beginning of Season 1, episode 12, the “ Sleep of Babes.” Baby Abel is finally coming home from the hospital, Clay and Gemma are being all cute in the kitchen Tara tells Jax she loves him sleepily – Jax is worried and stressed but you can’t have everyone happy at the same moment – this is Sons of Anarchy after all. You handle your own when you become a man And become a man when you handle your own Ain’t much I can do, but I do what I can But what can I do if I do till it’s gone? Oh ohġ0. Jax thinks he is being a man by trying to avenge Tara’s death but he is too clouded by his pain to realize that he is basically being coward- avoiding his kids avoiding his wife’s grave and suppressing his feelings with violent bravado and rash decisions. Hard and fast – driven by a deep-rooted pain and thirst for revenge that he can’t comprehend. The beat is like Jax’s frenetic heartbeat. Till It’s Gone – Yelawolf This song was in the Season 7 premiere, “ Black Widower.” SOA has featured Yelawolf before, but I was so happy to hear this newest song on my favourite show. Hear this prayer in my heart, and we’ll ne’er be apartġ1. She sings for her hopes, her mistakes and her sons. What more can the caged bird do but sing. It’s extremely sad and somewhat haunting. Maggie’s sweet voice reads like a collective sigh for the audience. This song is from Season 6, episode 9, “ John 8:32.” Juxtaposed with all the anxiety and stress of the episode which culminates with a terrifying scene between Jax and Lowen when Jax finally realizes what Tara has done. 01 - Crash This Train (Acoustic) - Joshua Jamesġ2.06 - John the Revelator - The Forest Rangers.08 - Can't Make It Through the Night - Deadstring Brothers.12 -Lullaby For a Soldier (Arms of the Angels) - Maggie Siff.I’m dreading the series finale on Tuesday but I’m super curious to see what song Kurt chooses for his last SOA musical montage. I would have never heard of The Forest Rangers, White Buffalo, Noah Gundersen, Joshua Jamesor Greg Holdenwithout Sons of Anarchy and now all these artist are in heavy rotation on my iTunes. The music on Sons of Anarchy elevates the drama, the lyrics provide a deeper prospective to the turmoil on screen and the musicians chosen are rarely known beyond their smaller, niche markets. Kurt Sutter and Bob Thiele have found a way to weave new or re-interpretated music into some of the most pivotal scenes of the show.
Instead of getting depressed over the end of Jax Teller, I thought I would remember one of the things that surprised me the most about this show: the music. With the Sons of Anarchy series finale coming up on December 9th, it’s hard to not get nostalgic over the last seven seasons of mayhem, machismo, brotherhood, love, dysfunction, loyalty and betrayal.
