"How do you know you're in love?" Richard Castle asks Beckett."All the songs make sense," she answers.
Unfortunately, in Season 6, Castle and Beckett realize that they don't know if they even "have" a song--the song that couples associate with their courtship. Luckily, by the end of "Teen Spirit," they realize that of course, they do.
In Bones, Brennan and Booth certainly have a song, a song they return to several times: "Hot Blooded" by Foreigner.
Just ask Titanic fans. Reputedly, the final song played by Titanic's band was "Nearer My God to Thee" (as Cameron's movie definitely promotes). However, Harold Bride--a highly reliable witness--claims the band was playing "Autumn."
This is where things get weird--because there are songs called "Autumn" but there are also "tunes" called "Autumn." That is, in the music world--and I apologize for mangling all the terms--a band leader might say, "Okay, guys, let's play Penguins" and what the band leader means is the underlying score or tune, not necessarily the lyrics.
Does it matter? Of course, it matters! To aficionados and fans, of course.
Everybody wants to "have" the right song.
