This is such a cool job. I read an interview with someone who worked on, I think it was Skins, who talked about this one scene which was a 1st lesbian kiss which was soundtracked by The Fear by Lily Allen, and for the DVD they used I Kissed A Girl instead because of rights issues and it just totally ruined it.

skins suffered a lot thanks to music licensing issues. a lot of the songs were so perfect for the scenes too, so kudos to the person you spoke with. was it fat segal?

The music on Skins was sooooo great even as the seasons got worse. I discovered so many great artists from that show.

some of the music in skins was perfect, even in the shitty later series
